this probably will kill off 80% of any 3rd party online games. Why make charge customers for a poor service when XBL and the PSN are better.

SSJ this is a total bullshit post.

1) Clearly, this system won't even be in 80% of games, or it would already be in Mario Kart and Brawl.  It's obviously designed for special circumsatnces.

2) We don't know what services will be offered for these games.  

3) We don't even know if this is just a system reserved for MMOs or other games with extremely complex online systems or not.  


 I was meaning it as if they force it to be implemented into 3rd party games. Why would Nintendo charge customers for their own games? From what I can tell its either going to be either only MMOs... which we will only see two or three on any console anyways, or be used as the main network for third parties similar to XBL minus 1st party titles being effected. 

 


Uh-oh... Mod fight!

On-topic:

We've already came to the conclusion that this is probably going to only be for MMOs (though we don't have confirmation yet), but the real question is, will you have to pay for each MMO you want to play or not?  Also, if this isn't for MMOs, and for third party games, will you have to pay to play GH4 online?  and then pay for Madden 09 online, Mario Kart, SSBB, etc.  A fee for each game?  cause that'd suck.

I think that it will be for all games, because if it's up to developers, you may end up paying for every online game you play. 

Food for thought.
