I think there are plenty of games that do well enough without online (MGS4 probably should take a penalty for it's online lol). It's just MP and online are like best friends. A solid MP game should have both local and online, or be docked some percentage. You guys make a very good argument that it simply could not be done, but a lot of games have lag and people deal with it. Although, in my world, games are rated based on what is available on the specific system. In this case, NSMBW would be somewhat higher than the score that it got. It's just that it's being compared to all other games out there, not against it's own ceiling. |
Multiplayer does not mean online, Online is useless for most people, as most people don't play online, which is why Nintendo didn't waste resources on it

Are people seriously still defending no online? I can't believe it. I seriously can't. The game would be eons better with it, and it could be easily added. The game was a rush job people get over it.

No it wouldn't be better with it, it would just be a useless feature to the majority, and it would probably require resources to be pulled from the single player or the local multiplayer to implement it, so why cater to a howling minority?

Ya know online or no online this game is going to be awesome. I very much prefer local co-op anyways.

The reason is that if Nintendo had built online multiplayer into the game, then the howling minority of forum posters that own a Wii and want this implemented, 10K strong give or take, would have purchased this game. That's right Nintendo. You could have had another 10K in sales! Now you'll feel the pinch!
Tag: Became a freaking mod and a complete douche, coincidentally, at the same time.
What about the ugly side of no online, here goes my conspiracy theory:
1) Their code doesn't cater to internet lag (lol) or the game play would be very annoying with constant "freezes"?
2) They want to sell more Wiimotes?
3) They don't want the online server costs?
Initially I didn't care for online, but the thought of playing with some of you lot isn't that bad.
Anyhoo, I hope Ninty is looking into online a little more seriously next gen, online games is a pretty big market etc etc. Can they afford to still use friend codes system?
I can't believe I read through this entire thread. How the hell can you go 200 posts back and forth about the same thing? The only ones who care about online are seemingly the ones who don't even like Nintendo that much. SURPRISING, ISN'T IT?
