Ah, don't we all? ^_^ Well, if Nintendo is going to go online eventually, I would think the most likely titles they have to take online would be Mario Party, Mario Kart and Super Smash Bros. I know this is a little off topic, but can anyone think of any other titles that Nintendo actually owns that might make a good online experience as well? I guess maybe a massive multiplayer RPG in the vain of Zelda would be cool, or maybe an online version of Advance [GameCube?] Wars and, of course (Can't believe this didn't strike me sooner), Pokemon. Pokemon Online would kick too much ass. Well, we'll see.
Not off of topic at all! :D Since I'm so dense about this entire thing, are they going to do this for other Nintendo game consoles as well? Because, with emulators, you can't connect to any random stranger. @_@ Maybe your friends, but like. BLAH, I don't know what I'm saying. e.e
IM paranoidiot for your code, BTW. :P And nice bring - about - discussion!
The thing about those games online is they were meant for a community of friends that are physically present. Smash and Mario Party wouldn't be the same if I weren't physically there laughing and enjoying myself with my friends... thats the view Nintendo takes and I agree.
While I do agree that being in person is better then not being in person, playing this games online would still be a ten times better then playing them single player (This goes for any multi-player game). Nintendo is in this thing to make money. If they need to take some of their existing games online, they're going to. No one is saying you can't still hang out with your buddies, but chances are you don't have your buddies tied to a sofa injected with laugh gas for twenty four hours of non-stop multiplayer action. ^_^ I'm hoping Nintendo puts out a microphone headset similiar to Xbox's when they go online. Would make these unavoidible online games even better.
