That kind of thing tends to make fans angsty. Even if it doesn't piss me off, I can understand how suggesting something and then going back on it will piss people off.


Actually, to kick that up a notch, Nintendo pretty much guaranteed online in the beginning . . . so angry from it lacking online is perfectly acceptable.


That was when SSB didn't even have a director and Nintendo was making a lot of empty promises.

Doesn't change the fact that they said it.

Also Masahiro Sakurai said that when discussing online with Nintendo, Smash was the first game that came to mind as something that must be done and that he was pushing the game to be online.

So I mean there is a tremendous push to have this online, combined that with what's been said and it still give validity to those that would be angry (such as myself).

Anger is understandable, but all the angst in the world won't make a bit of difference.  The balls are inert.  Personally, I'm baffled by all the doubt, not so much the promises of rage.

I must find a way to use "burninate" more in my daily speech.

It's funny about the Wi-Fi stuff.  Though it really doesn't matter to me, since there's still a lot of fun to it even if you can get one person to play with you.  Besides, even if it does have Wi-Fi support, it won't work for me since I run Satellite internet.  It's the most fake 'broadband' there ever is.

I'm still questioning the online support anyway.  Once it's confirmed, then it'll be fine.  I'm not getting my hopes up thankfully.  By the way...



Apparently this image is starting to float around the internet.  So far, I wouldn't believe it because there's still a bit of an ESRB issue.  I haven't heard of an official rating yet, and if it there was one, it'd be posted on the website.  Not to mention that online game stores still show RP pictures.  Seems that front cover is starting to disappear too.  I think the most obvious thing in the picture that'd be a dead giveaway would be the amount of stock pictures and controllers.

Hopefully I'm not late on this image on the forum :x.  I actually just saw it for the first time today.

Plus, wouldn't it be in English, Spanish and French?

It's 'Wi-Fi Connection', not 'Wifi Connection'. And besides, it looks like a hack job regardless.

Sure it will.

When a developer makes a decision like that and gets mailed a box of fire ants which swarm him and rend the flesh from his bones, the next developer to make decision like that would think twice before doing it.

Speaking of fire ants, put my name on the package as well S_B.
