Nintendo never does online right. NEVER. It's kinda killing me inside because it's sort of a standard. Always loved Nintendo, just wish they'd pay attention to the times once in a while. That would make their games that much more epic than they already are. I just found that this is due to certain staff members that don't want to change their mindsets from 1992. It's sad really.

What so necessary about those features though? The game can be great without them.


It's not that it is necessary but it sure doesn't hurt. If anything it only helps. Having standard online features is something that NIntendo should have pioneered. But instead, their faculty wants to stay 20 years in the past. Their games are fun as hell, don't get me wrong and that's all that SHOULD matter, but in a world where gaming is constantly changing and new standards are being set, you can't afford to work against them. It's like Nintendo not wanting to adapt CDs or DVDs as a storage medium. It wasn't really great at first but then they became standards in the industry. That eventually cost Nintendo the 5th and 6th generations.No, this may not seem as revolutionary now but Nintendo better hop on soon with online. Heck, the world is going online.
