The wii online system!

[Killcushley]

I hate it, i just wanna play with my friends, i shouldn't have to add them for each differant game
i thought it would just be you add them to your wii contacts and thats it but apparently not:'(
anyone wanna stick their mario kart codes down and al add them and message them mine?
cos that would be pretty cool
Also dont get me wrong i like my wii but the novelty of waving a stick at a screen is getting old and the star wars game was wayyyy too short

Yeah apparently this is some convoluted way to keep kids from being lured into the lair's of pedophiles.

I say it's just stupid and annoying but think of the children!

So, at this point, we have determined that the Wii has been made for children? (Which further explains why it's called a Wii, only kids would find that funny).

Wii hate is so 2007

I just hate how outsiders think that the Wii is the best overall console in all areas just because of sales. Constant complaints about online play and sub-par game design and graphics say otherwise to those in the know, but I suppose this isn't the thread to complain about that.

QFT.
It's all about promises that it does not live up to.
(And the fact that it needs more Mario games to be a Nintendo console!!)

I wish I was the lucky bastard with the friend code of all zeros.

What's there to protect when you've got nothing to destroy?

(to clarify, what's the point of putting friend codes if the online is to the point where it's completely annonemous with no voice chat and completely void with the features the other consoles/PCs can do?)

But yeah, I thought we already got over it and accepted it? Hopefully I'll be able to play a few rounds of the Conduit on my Wii with my friends OnLiNe.

I hate it too, that's why I only play it if friends/family are over, because I'm mostly a PC gamer (doesn't work well with others at your house) and for PS3 I don't have any games with local multiplayer. (Until LittlebigPlanet!)

What are you talking about? i love anonymously playing against what i assume to be other people(Of course, there's no way to tell if they're real or not as they never speak). And playing with my friends with my laptop on my lap so i can talk to them on skype at the same time. It's totally not annoying and obtrusive.

I think they make it a low selling point because they know they can atleast try to compensate in other areas.

Also, Will....will, your name should be Will Will Wright write his will
