Is nintendo wi-fi pretty Lacky?

[elvis1835]

I mean there is SO much they could they could be adding and aren't like away to
identify matches by code without needing friend codes for instance

I make a MKDS race right? now I'm come on dsu and say
"hey anyone wanna race enter this code [insert code here] in the game search box." as well they could be upgrading the servers make them less laggy. They could make a system so when people D/C instead of the game closing the person is replaced with a cpu. what do you guys think?

Very much lacking. Not that it should be like the other consoles wifi systems, but better in that it has different optional levels of communication and such like. Oh, and no hubs, those waste time.

Like what many many people have said, what we view as success, Nintendo views as too much work...

But yeah, Wi-fi would be much more awesome if they just worked on it a bit more.

Nintendo is simply too much of a scrooge when it comes to money.

[cheat-master30]

That's true. Would have thought they wouldn't be, with the success of the Wii and DS. With any logic, should be the PS3 that's short on budget...

I feel it's good enough for their first try.

^ It is pretty useful, but it would be nice if you could plug it into a wired network. So far, I have only accessed it at my friends house, which has a wireless network.

But otherwise, it's nice. Although I feel some games could have a wifi feature and some games with more stuff to do on wifi.

For example, a battle mode in Mario vs DK 2...

^^ i agree not everyone has wireless and lots of people want to play wi-fi

One feature I feel could be useful(direct rip from Xbox Live) is just being able to search for hosted games with whoever you want. It's a much easier process. And reduce the lag.

Many games have such features. However, some like Animal Crossing, don't, because people would waltz into towns, plant building seeds, and leave.

Wii need a headset. Especially in Medal of Honor: Heroes 2. It is so frustrating when you are walking with a group of people and you see a nade tossed in the path but your teammates don't realize it. While you frantically shoot them to get their attention, they walk straight over the nade and die.

[cheat-master30]

Wouldn't that be annoying because it'd encourage chat in more games? I'd have to be third party though, because what's the chance of Nintendo encouraging chat in wifi games?

I think the wi in wifi means wireless

[cheat-master30]

I think it does, yes.
