LOL at counting Pokemon and Strikers as online. Face it, Nintendo's online is horrible. Which is fine, its not why i bought a Wii, but don't use it as a plus for the system because its not.

All 3 systems have top titles in production, but it seems PS3 and 360 have more then Nintendo.

And yes i understand they are handling the VC to maximize profit, it doesn't change the fact that its nowhere near as good as they said it would be.

and those are just the start; madden/fifa/endless ocean/smash bros/mario kart/etc/etc/etc are confirmed online...so it'll be hundreds of titles online within a year or two


and i didn't say it's a "plus"...i said it's 'not a glaring problem'

The lack of selection of games is a huge glaring problem. They have even less top titles in production then Sony does.

[/ QUOTE ]

There are a handful of good to very good games already out. I'm also very excited about Mario Galaxy, SSBM, and Metroid. I don't really play video games much anymore because I'm hooked on 2+2 and poker, but to criticize Wii for lack of game selection 9 months after release and defend Sony in the same breath is ridiculous. Lack of game selection is at this point a non-issue as far as the Wii is concerned.



[ QUOTE ]

Also the VC is woefully understocked. When Nintendo announced it they made it seem like it would be overflowing with old games and have top notch selection. While it is slowly getting better it is nowhere near as good as most thought it would be.

[/ QUOTE ]

I think VC has been handled pretty well and have bought 3 or 4 games off of it. I'll definitely be picking up Super Metroid on VC when it comes out as well. Maybe somewhat disappointing to those who naively thought that the entire library of NES titles would be immediately available, but still not a glaring problem.

The lack of any real online gaming is also a glaring problem.

Remember when I said Wii has delivered exactly what it promised? It never promised incredible online play, but nevertheless online play is coming.
