It's insane the lengths people will go to pardon this game. Any other online shooter released by any other company would have been absolutely crucified for daring to launch their game with only one online mode and 5 maps. I called the severe lack of content months ago, but even I wasn't pessimistic enough to consider that there wouldn't even be ample maps at launch.

 

better 5 good maps than 15 with the quality of bf hardline.

and its not one online mode, its 3.

 

still, thats not alot, and nintendo realy have to deliver after launch to make it worth the price.

I agree with this.  I remember spending an entire summer one year playing Blood Gulch CTF for PC Halo.  All you need is a couple of really well designed maps to make a FPS loads of fun.  I think people trust that when Nintendo is devlivering 5 maps, they are going to be maps that are a cut above that of your standard first person shooter.  Furthermore, I think people are also trusting that Nintendo is going to deliver on their promise for additional maps in a tasteful way (like was done for MK8) as opposed to the kind of DLC that we are seeing from most western developers.
