There is no such thing as "proper security". Security doesn't get better, the bigger the network gets. In fact, the bigger it gets and the more people are involved, the higher the chance that there will be a weak link. MS and Sony don't have bad security, they're doing what they can to protect themselves. Sadly there is no protection against massive DDOS attacks. If the attackers wanted they would have no trouble bringing Nintendo's network down.
Currently Nintendo is doing the best thing they can to protect them from attacks. Not being a target.
If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.
