I'm sorry but no matter how many people tell me Nintendo is going in a different path with online, I will not accept the shitbox that is Wii Wi-Fi and I will not think that an online system that makes 1999 GameSpy look advanced is a great way of doing things in 2008.

The only thing 1999 gamespy had going for it that the Wii didn't have was chatroom functionality IIRC; and typing on a console without a keyboard is hard...

I was actually allowed to choose what game I wanted to join in GameSpy.

 What Wii online game doesn't let you do that?  MoH:H2 had a nice lobby system infact where you could sort games by type/amount of people and even password protect rooms.  I haven't played MK:Wii online but SSBB lets you pick which friend you want to play with, no options for the random battles I will give you.
