Ok, as many have already pointed out, this is mostly baseless whining. The interface seemed to me to be the same as for VC, though I've only downloaded Lost Wind so far, so I might remember incorrectly. But as for the credit card number, I think it's obvious to anybody with half a brain that you can't store credit card numbers on a machine that anybody can use. And, for the record, I don't have to enter my address when I buy points, the credit card number, expiration date and security code is all that's needed.
The only real problem IMO is the limited storage space, but I don't know how many actually actively play more games than can fit in Wii's internal storage. Sure, it would be more convenient if you could fit everything there, but somehow I don't think it's a problem for the majority of users now.
And talking about the Mario, how stupid is the author of the article? I mean, isn't it obvious that it's a progress bar of sorts?
