I'm pretty sure Wii Music was the highlight of E3, not Sluggers. I don't know why Namco chose not to put online in the game.

Fix'd for accuracy.

This is a completely asinine posts for two reasons:

1) There's nothing about the Wii technically that prevents Capcom from putting online play in this game.

2) Capcom already has a game with online capabilities in development for the Wii, and it's much larger than this game.

It's been nearly two years since the Wii launched and fanboys are still butthurt over what it supposedly can and cannot do. Get mad about it, boycott companies about it and stealth troll about it, but don't come in here and pretend that it's somehow Nintendo's fault that a perfectly capable 3rd party game is inexplicably missing features that should be standard by now. Reality is not on your side.

 I care, is one of my favorite games.

Too bad I was never getting this for the wii anyway...

To the people questioning who cares about this game:
Every Moto fan and general racing enthusiasts, seeing as it's like... the only good motorbike game out there.

But yeah, all of this is down to Capcom, and their decision to do YET ANOTHER ps2 port job, and nothing else. At least it's somewhat pretty.

Seriously guys. Nintendo NEVER had the online focus that Microsoft and to a lesser extent Sony did. Don't pretend you had any reasonable expectation of online strength when you bought the Wii. I know I didn't.

What does it have to do with Nintendo that Capcom are porting over the PS2 version of the game?

I like moto GP

Sometimes, but the future looks bright. For example the Wii is getting Call of Duty 5 and Quantum of Solace with all online and offline features of the PS3/Xbox-Version. Almost ... there is no online-coop-mode for Cod5. But Quantum get an extra local coop. Force Unleashed got a special Duell-Mode in the Wii-Version. EA sometimes gimped the Wii-Version of their game sometimes they expanded it.

reading starcrafts post.. I thought it would be cool to have a button that allows users to vote on hiding certain posters comment, if someone wanted to read the post they would recieve a warning that the community deemed that post invalid to the thread and confirmation would be required.

I'm just reading the last 7 posts and there's some random post pointing out something that has nothing to do with the thread.

"The Wii version is running late production wise and it will not ship at the end of next month with the other SKUs. There are some improvements from the PS2, in particular the control mechanisms with the Wiimote, but It is true that there is no online play."

Someone saved me the job and asked Capcom about this (I suspect it's someone who read my thread)

Lol the game even got delayed, hahahah. WTF is Capcom doing? Adding motion controls to the PS2 port is enough to justify a buy when they are giving the HD/PC a robust online mode? If they are gonna delay the game at least they should add online.

With their recently announced multiplat strategy, this may be showing us something: Wii will be getting late PS2 ports that are gimped down versions of the HD/PC versions.
