Non issue

Tell that to people without internet, without pretending everyone is online nowdays,

If you have the money to buy a Wii U, then you must have some form of internet connection, even if it is really bad.

I said without pretending.  A baseless statement is pretending.

Why pretend if it's pretty much a given that any person around the world who buys a Wii U will have an internet connection? Video games are an expensive hobby, and like I said if you have the money to buy a next gen system you must have an internet connection, imo it's common sense.

MS, Sony, and Nintendo disagree with you. If so many people had their consoles connected to the internet their would be no need for on disc system updates such as all three have. Many people (in the US) do not have great internet access. Those living in the mountians, and those in the more open and spread out midwest states do not. Europe is probably better off as they have a better network set up for the internet, but the US (possibly the biggest and most important market) does not have an awesome backbone for internet through out the whole country.
