stupid MS believing NXE can move some console lol
price and games move console !

"It" doesn't suck, though ("it" being the games that choose to go online).  And Nintendo pushed it plenty with Brawl (not so good) and Kart (quite good), and MOH Heroes 2 and Call of Duty both have it featured, to name a few.  Furthermore, sucky online is way different than no online.

LMAO!

OT: Downplaying the competition seems to be the 'in' strategy nowadays.  I'd bet they're counting on many people reading this comment and believing it. 

No offense, guy, but what is it with you and defending everything against Nintendo?

Jeeeesus.

When 360 was expensive MS qas looking to be buddy buddy with fans of the Wii like: "get a 360 to complement your Wii". Though now that 360 is priced below the Wii you know that they expected it to cut into Wii sales a little more too (not just PS3 sales). As a short term plan cutting away some of PS3's sales yeah thats fine but long term this aggressively priced they want to see a shift with 360 the casual consumers console of choice.

Ill agree, you can't even talk to your friends while playing Mario Kart or SSBB. You might as well play against the cpu honestly you can't even tell the difference, the only difference is that it takes 20 times longer to load an "online" game.

^^I can't talk to my friends when I'm on AIM--I can only send them text messages. I guess I'm not online then either. As for the load times comment, I think you need a better connection.

Well it's obviously not on the same level of online as Xlive, but it is still there and it works. Lag free for most of the games, aside from Brawl from what I've played. And it isn't high definition but me like the majority of people don't have an HD TV so with any console it doesn't matter to me. But he does make a great point about the storage problem because it is quite an issue... I think I'm running out of room just from game saves haha. Going to have to start storing some of the older ones on GC memory disks.

But currently I'd say Ninty and Sony are the ones that best provide to all sides of the market. I mean Sony has games like Resistance and Uncharted along with LittleBigPlanet and Singstar. Nintendo has Zelda: TP and Metroid Prime 3 along with Wii Fit and Big Brain Academy. Technically MS doesn't have any games aside from the people it owns but I'll do it anyways. MS has Halo and Fable II along with Viva Pinata and Scene It. As you can see MS's casual front just doesn't add up to the casual front Sony and Nintendo have and have had for a decent amount of time. So in that front MS needs work which is why they are trying to so hard to obtain it.

He never said the Wii doesn't have online. He said it isn't an online connected platform. He's basically talking about how you are connected to everyone on your friends list no matter what game you're playing. But you can use this molehill as a foundation for your mountain if you wish!

Nintendo fans are very vocal on these forums. Someone has to back the opposing opinion lol
