--Online gaming is not profitable right now
--There is not ample user support for online gaming to justify Nintendo pursuing it
--The majority of gamers do not care about online gaming
--Nintendo is right not to have jumped into online gaming themselves as Sony and Microsoft have
--Nintendo is NOT right to have made the online capabilities of its console as obscure as they have
--Nintendo SHOULD encourage 3rd parties to set up their own online networks for the Gamecube
--Online gaming WILL be very popular and profitable in the future
--Nintendo most definitely SHOULD support online gaming when they have found a profitable and appealing way to do so
--Nintendo should study their competitors' failures and successes and learn from them in order to duplicate the good and avoid the bad
   

Wrong on literally every count, Mouse.

Are you saying that online gaming isn't very popular or profitable at present?


Looks to me like it took over the gaming world to the extent that we will probably never see another single player FPS game from Valve (aka Half-life 3).

Yes. Nobody is playing ExciteBots anymore ;__;

Mouseclicker didn't think the coin flip scene in No country for Old Men was necessary. I started to value his opinion less.
