I like Nintendo's current products, and what they are doing with them.
There seems to be lots of software for lots of tastes.

There is definitely one thing that Nintendo has done in the past few years I do not like at all though, and that is how they handled the DS Internet Cartridge. The problem I have is that you cannot connect to any (any as in "any of all available", not any as in the "opposite of none") open WiFi system that has any sort of an internal authentication. But supposedly, there is a small group (corporation connections) of WiFi connections that the DS can connect to this way.

So, basically Nintendo crippled the usability of DS Interenet for the sake of a handful of corporate deals. Poo on them.

Love games, hate fanboys.

i love both!

I like both, the wii and Nintendo.

I think you're confused.

Firstly, you don't need to buy the browser to have online. It's nice, but not neccessary - the DS is a gaming device.

Secondly, it's not a corporate monopoly - the DS came out before the widespread adoption of WPA encryption and has no mechanism for firmware update. Nintendo only supported WEP encryption, which fewer people have because it's less secure. "Corporate" connection don't usually use any wireless security because they are free to use.

 

you hate nintendo games, my opinion respectfully disagrees with your opinion

Wii is nothing without Nintendo's ideas and upgrades!

Rock_on_2008 said: Wii is a good console in theory. But game developers are not making enough quality games for the system.

 

Umm?? have you seen what's coming soon on Wii?

 

"the big" third party's have only had about 1,5 years to do games since they didn't think Wii would be this sucessful, unlike for the PS3 and Xbox  where they have had atleast 3 years planning their games.

 

 

 "Wii Play, wii sports kind of games could be exception, never played them yet." 

 

You've never even played Wii.  Come back when you have something of substance to say.
