Wouldn't that be possible with the old Wi-Fi connection though?

Lol. I doubt Nintendo will be pushing technology that will be the standard in the 21st century. I can't even imagine what we will have then.

I imagine a portable with a touchscreen and one homeconsole focused on motion controls. Did I said motion controls? Veru futuristic. Maybe in the 23rd century.

Wooooooooooow...

Proud to be the first cool Nintendo fan ever

Number ONE Zelda fan in the Universe

DKCTF didn't move consoles

Prediction: No Zelda HD for Wii U, quietly moved to the succesor

Predictions for Nintendo NX and Mobile

Has a nice ring to it. And so what does Sony go and call their online service? Playstation Network, of course. Fucking copycats, as usual.

LOL...Or did they all just copy SEGA???

LOL!

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.

You would still have to go to the promotional Events to get them, though.

bet with Mordred11 that Rage will look better on Xbox 360.

I meant wouldn't it be possible to allow international Pokemon events using Wi-Fi if Nintendo wanted to? And if not, what's stopping it?

Will it help them catch up? Hell no. There's no chance they're ever catching up. Will it help them be competitive? Yes definitely.

I laughed. Good old nintendo copying sony! Now we just need evidence that this was the name from ten years back before the PSN ever launched.

Yes then Nintendo will be just as good at that as Sony is

Whether it is possible not or is irrelevant, fact is, they haven't done it yet, so my wish is that they do it with the next Nintendo online component.
