Nintendo and online gaming just ain't meshing... Nintendo is giving less then a Sony effort and on a platform that hasn't really sold enough units to compare to Ps2.

Nintendo is getting out of online gaming exactly what they put in... damn near nothing. If nintendo gave online gaming more effort, much like Microsoft, they wouldn't have many problems.



3rd party Developers in general just don't make Nintendo a priority... But who's fault is that? Maybe we can blame Sony and MS for going the extra mile to ensure good support from third parties.

Game point, set and match.
Come on guys be realistic....... how do you expect 3rd parties to jump on the bandwagon when the company( Nintendo) who makes the console hasn't shown much interest in it.
They have made no annoucement about major online support or a network ( thanks to that whole keep everything a secret else everyone will steal it attitude), so Nintendo 's future online look pretty blurry right now.
