Nintendo, I'm mad at you. Really mad.

There seem to be all kinds of network/server issues world wide with nintendo over xmas. My friend got so mad he took his new wii u back to the shop cos he couldn't download the update (and therefore couldn't use his shiny new wii u)... doubt they could do much though, and not sure of the outcome! He wouldn't listen when I told him he should probably wait a day or 2 (or week or 2)
I noticed not all the online features were working when I played Mario 3d world yesterday and the day before probably not the worst that could happen but it was enough to get me to look elsewhere online and yes, there does currently seem to be worldwide issues with  the nintendo network(presumably from xmas overload?)

what? don't games come with the patches. Surely a recent release would have had the latest firmware on it to install.

network issues have also hit sony and steam this holiday season. Could be a good thing I guess since it means more people willing to spend money lol.
