Anyone who uses a forum obviously falls into more of a hardcore market. I think we should atleast wait for the first weeks sales before sticking it.
I think the reason why Nintendo isn't giving people online for a game like this is because it does fall a heck of a lot more into the casual sector than the hardcore. They want to get everyone playing with their families first. The moment you add in online the game becomes a shallow 4 way competition, without the fun factor of a party environment.
I think Nintendo will give us online gaming for games like SSBB or Metroid but the casual market they will probably leave offline. IMO.
