People care about Nintendo's financial situation because Nintendo's profits are what lead to new developments. If Nintendo was struggeling, they would stick to what works, and what is sure to sell, and we wouldn't see anything new. Look at Sega if you don't believe me.

And as for your question, no, I would not like to play Mario Kart online for Gamecube. I personally would not want the experience ruined by a poor online experience. Nintendo has a certain level of quality they are expected to live up to, and I expect to see that online and offline.

Maybe you've been living under a rock for the past few months, but the PS2 and Xbox online experience isn't great, it's just better than nothing. Better than nothing hardly means good. Now Xbox Live kicks the hell out of what PS2 can offer, but Xbox Live has a list of its own problems. Nintendo fans have grown to expect perfection with Nintendo's games, and they will expect perfection with Nintendo's online games as well. Perfection is something they cannot offer this generation.
WTF? How would an extra online mode hurt the offline gameplay?

Maybe you could pull your head out of your own ass for a while and consider that your opinion is simply that: your opinion. Hundreds of thousands of gamers bought NA's and XBL starter kits for a reason, and that isn't because they have ****loads of money to waste on videogames like yourself.

If Nintendo fans have grown to expect perfection, then there is something wrong. There either a) aren't enough disappointed Nintendo fans or b) is a new definition of 'perfection' to which I am not familiar with.

And if you don't think online gaming is worth anything, quit playing them. Don't touch an online version of MotoGP, enjoy yourself, and then come here and play Devil's Advocate. Grow a set and go one way or the other...
