Nintendo could at least try to establish a online user base and create a few online titles just to get things going, even if the going is slow at first. this way, if they ever wanted to really focus on some online plans, they could be assured to have a fairly satisfactory profit from it. Nintendo can't expect to all of sudden just jump into online gaming one day. They have to establish a good user base. I don't see why they can't even try a game or two online, like God, Mario Kart online would sell millions, how can they not see that? Super Smash Brothers 3 online would be another that could be sure to sale excellently.
Nintendo is famous for its quote "Quality gaming and nothing less" (I'm not sure if that is word for word, but you know what I'm talking about). By not going online, they are treating gamers in a negative way. How exactly is that pure quality? Can't they even try going online? I just don't see how they are being fair to the people who own a Game Cube. Not to mention GCN sales aren't exactly spectacular. Don't you think a huge online game like Mario Kart would boost GCN sales? You bet your ass it would.
