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. 

 


 Why on earth would you assume that it was a charge forced upon developers of third party titles? Nintendo is working hard to rebuild their third party support, and they obviously would not do anything remotely like that.  Rather, iit's pretty obvious that they are putting an infrastructure in place to allow people to plop their MMORPG's down onto the system, and to facilitate a smooth way to pay for it. 

If anything else this makes them more attractive to third party developers as it gives MMORPG production houses a reason to develop for the system.
