If you want to go that route, go ahead.  But while I agree that IGN is garbage, I think its pretty harsh to call the other site garbage just because it was providing a link to another sites supposed conversation with a 'nintendo rep'.  At least the site poinred to the fact that the source was not fact saying "While a customer service rep may not sound like the most reliable source, they're trained to follow company policy, and it's pretty apparent by the lack of VC releases in the US for the past two weeks, and its very spotty release schedule otherwise, that Nintendo may be slowing down the service."

If you were wondering why I was making the comparison to IGN.  Which stands in stark contrast to the conversation good ol' Matt at IGN 'overheard' badmouthing Wii.  Which may have either happened online or in his head.

No, we're talking about what you quoted me as saying which was "the Wii's first 6 months."  I said that on purpose to trip up silly people who can't read.  And, no the DS's launch date doesn't matter since it's not capable of DSiware.

That's an incredibly foolish line of argument in this context, though. The Wii didn't HAVE Wiiware when it launched. The DSi, however, DID have DSiware right away. You're trying to compare apples to oranges. It makes no sense to make that argument, except maybe if you're purposefully trying to troll around, which is even more ridiculous.

It makes absolutely no sense in any given way.

However, you accidentally DO bring up a good point. The Wii didn't have Wiiware when it came out, but they integrated it later on and have since supported it fairly well. The same will likely happen, similarly, with the DSi.
