Does anyone actually care that NSMBWii doesn't have online? I'm genuinely wondering, here.

I have the game, and I do.

I do as well.  The concept that online multiplayer would actually have made it a much better game is hard for some people to accept.

Was hoping for 9 but 8.9 is very good. I can kind of see what he's talking about by playing it safe, online while not necessary would of been nice, as well as the ability to record yourself completing a level.



Online would only work with this game if you were playing with friends, and even then not really that well.

I definitely have no problems with the lack of random prepubescent a-holes ruining my game.

Ah well, they can give it what they want, honestly, I'm just ready for this game and it sounds like overall, it's awesome.

i care, all of my best friends live 2 hours from me.  i'm still going to get the game, i'm not going to cry over it, but i really would have liked online so i could play the game with friends instead of alone.

Can someone please tell me why every game has to have online?

Do people no longer have offline friends?



I don't think EVERY game has to be online...but there's no reason why every game with multiplayer SHOULDN'T!



Didnt bother reading the reviews, but does this game have any mini-games like how the DS version does?



IGN does this all the time. Judge a game on what it is, not what you think it should be.



"Pier was a chef, a gifted and respected chef who made millions selling his dishes to the residents of New York City and Boston, he even had a famous jingle playing in those cities that everyone knew by heart. He also had a restaurant in Los Angeles, but not expecting LA to have such a massive population he only used his name on that restaurant and left it to his least capable and cheapest chefs. While his New York restaurant sold kobe beef for $100 and his Boston restaurant sold lobster for $50, his LA restaurant sold cheap hotdogs for $30. Initially these hot dogs sold fairly well because residents of los angeles were starving for good food and hoped that the famous name would denote a high quality, but most were disappointed with what they ate. Seeing the success of his cheap hot dogs in LA, Pier thought "why bother giving Los Angeles quality meats when I can oversell them on cheap hotdogs forever, and since I don't care about the product anyways, why bother advertising them? So Pier continued to only sell cheap hotdogs in LA and was surprised to see that they no longer sold. Pier's conclusion? Residents of Los Angeles don't like food."

"The so-called "hardcore" gamer is a marketing brainwashed, innovation shunting, self-righteous idiot who pays videogame makers far too much money than what is delivered."

What do you do if your friends live far from you? you ask them to waste gas just to play some Mario games?
