I can only speak for myself but early last gen, Xbox Live was, in my opinion, easily worth $50 more than the PSN and Nintendo WiFi Connection. Sony stepped their game up in a major way and now, PSN is worth the money, as well. Nintendo still doesn't even have the basics, yet. Yeah, you can find someone to play with some times and if that's all you want, good for you. I need more and Nintendo's competition offer it.
Don't get me wrong. I love my Wii U but the online component is probably Xbox in 2003 quality if that. |
Wow is it that bad?

It has online play (Call of Duty worked great--Mario Kart was plagued with disconnects), limited voice chat, and some leaderboards. That's about it. You can't send invites (d21lewis wants to play Ninja Gaiden...), you can't "prefer" people you play online, messages don't give any kind of notification to the receiver (d21lewis sent you a message: good game!), no unified Achievements/Trophies, video chat is only available outside of games, matchmaking is all over the place (noobs vs experts), no party chat, no gameplay sharing--I could write a laundry list comparing PS3/PS4/Xbox One/Xbox 360/Wii/Wii U/Vita/3DS. Nintendo just hasn't put forth any kind of effort to make their online good.

No wonder they don't charge, I wouldn't pay a cent for that. :/
