Forums - Nintendo - Multiplayer games on the wii... a disapointing experience.

Also, it's funny you gripe about the game changing. This isn't really a criticism of you, it's just more of an interesting observation.

People always complain that Nintendo keeps giving us the same rehash over and over again yet when they change the formula of one of their games like Warioware people complain.

Again, if you haven't given the 12 player a go, get a large group of friends and just have fun. Even with 4-6 players it's still loads of fun because you never know who's next and you never know what they're going to throw at you.

If you are convinced that your complaints are valid, you don't have to mention that you love the Wii several times in your post.

Also, the first Rayman Raving Rabbids game lets you barely play any minigames simultaneously, most of the time you are taking turns.

 

I know... but if i don't think wii fanboys will flood the forum with bullshit.

@Phrancheyez: The friendcode system works in the way that it has no standard. All the games have their own friendcodes, but (so far only) Mario Kart Wii can use the Wiis own friendcode, so you need only to click a button to send friend request.
And EA:s online games run on EA:s own server, which doesn't use friendcodes.

Nintendo games sell only on Nintendo system.

I like change.  But why change what works?

Or take something fun and make it less fun.

OH look, they like playing simultaneously with 4 controlers... lets take that away from them.

I don’t think anyone posted Guitar Hero 3. The Wii might not have downloadable content for this game but that is one game that I do spend a lot of time playing online multiplayer. You don’t have to use the friend codes just go online and have fun playing against some random people.



Albion - Its Fun as Ballz !!!!!

spdk1 saidyou only need the codes for your friends list, you can use their online matchmakers to play anonymous games with anyone around the world. But since you obviously hate the Wii so much, this will fall on deaf ears.

 


If I turn on my Xbox 360 in hopes of playing CoD4, and none of my friends are online that I play CoD4 with, I will not play CoD4.

 

See, I guess thats why i'm happy with the Wii's online setup- that statement is baffling to me. If I play a shooter online, i'm happy to jump in, make some kills and increase my online ranking or records or whatever that game needs, with total strangers. I always thought that was kind of the point of online play, that you could to play with and against people from all over the world - the need to know them is irrelevant, just knowing that they are real people and not CPU-controlled. When I play with my friends, I like it to be on my sofa/their sofa with some beers, in the flesh- which Is what happens.

Each to their own, I guess.

Geometry wars is 2 players as well.
Oh and good job not mentioning Wii Sports. The Wii is all about party games.

@bardicverse, the conduit is not doing 4 player splitscreen. A big mistake for a game on the Wii if u ask me.

 

Im pretty sure I read otherwise not long ago, like in the last 2-3 weeks?



Uh, I don't think any console ever was as multiplay-focused as the Wii. I can do the list-thing, but you probably already made up your mind about this matter.

So have fun playing splitscreen MotorStorm.

Oh wait.

Yeah, but would you rather they just release you the same game with slightly different mini games or something totally new?  In this case I don't think something totally new is that bad because you can still play the Gamecube WW on the Wii and now you have a completely different one.

If they would have just released another rehash it would have been something like Rayman Raving Rabbids 2.  Sure RRR2 is great fun but it's pretty much just RRR (though RRR2 does have better multiplayer).  If you have RRR I could see why you might just not want to buy RRR2 since it's essentially the same game.

While WW:SM is still a Warioware game that keeps the same fast and frantic mini games, it's pretty different from the Gamecube version.  If you have the GC version you have good incentive to get the Wii version because they are pretty different.

Again, not really criticising you because you don't like it, that's cool if you don't, just saying change isn't a bad thing.
