Smash is in a lose/lose situation. People would complain if it didn't have online, yet people complain about it when it does have online.

Virtua Fighter 5 for PS3 doesn't even have online where Xbox's does. So what's up with that? Anyway, this will go on forever. Nintendo's Online service isn't amazing, we've all known this for quite some time

We should be thankful. They don't even have to give us any form of online service, but they do and it's free. If we were paying for Nintendo's current online system, I'd be pissed. I know, it's not that great of a system. People pay for XBL, so I expect it to be good, and it is. I don't care if it is only $50 a year. I know, I know. Nintendo's online sucks. I'm not paying for it, so it's not like I should be bitching about something that is free. Bitching about it isn't going to change it. Maybe if Nintendo did a huge online survey that asked their customers how they felt about their online system, they'd see all the negative feedback. Maybe then they could change something.

Since when do people in Team Smash matches talk to their partner about strategy or what to do? megadave said it perfectly.

I've always had this theory, it's kind of silly, but it's a theory. The Wii is basically making Nintendo a ton of money, right? It's casual. It's successful, but for how long? Nintendo has made it clear that they are attracting the more casual crowd for this console, and it's obvious the little machine isn't "next-gen" graphics. Now, what if, say in 2-4 years, Nintendo announces a console for the "hardcore". It's the powerhouse that everyone has wanted from Nintendo. Gaming in 1080p with noticeably better graphics than the 360/PS3 , multi-media center, and online gaming service that is like XBL. Didn't Nintendo say they didn't go the HD road because HDTVs aren't that common in households? That % is quickly getting bigger every day, so they'd have more reason now. They would then have control of both markets: the casual, and hardcore gamer. I guess this seems more like a fantasy, but anyway. Sorry about derailing the thread Go giant frozen Snorlax-like final smash

I honestly couldn't care if Brawl has online or not. Ok, that's not entirely true, but I'm not looking forward this game for the sole purpose of playing online. When I get Brawl, I'm going to be playing with my 6 other friends that have been eagerly waiting for this game too. I don't want to have to wait for a match up, play, wait again, and play, etc. This usually takes a few minutes per match with my experience in wi-fi games. I'd rather just have guaranteed matches whenever I want when we're at someone's house. Having online play is just a bonus to me. Xbox Live is amazing, but everyone knows Nintendo's online service will never be like this on the Wii. I love how people still complain about it like it's just being acknowledged as to what Nintendo's online service is. We're always going to have friend codes. It's not like someday Nintendo is going to announce "OK everyone, if you have a mynintendo account, that will now be your Wii online name! People can just add your name to your friend's list and it'll keep track of all of your games/online activity!". Maybe some day Nintendo will get their feet wet in this online gaming world. I wish the next time when some game blog or whatever has an interview with someone big at Nintendo that they'll ask when or if they'll ever produce an online service that is on par with Xbox Live.

I wish Miyamoto would work on a Wii Zelda title. I don't like to consider TP the Wii's Zelda since it was originally a GC title.

Does the Wii support any size SD card? Don't they have 8gb or 16gb ones out now? They really need to get over it. There's this thing called parental controls, and parents need to get involved and use them so it'll stop ruining things for everyone else

Super Mario Galaxy has passed Ocarina of time on GameRankings.com http://www.gamerankings.com/itemrankings/simpleratings.asp?rankings=y

I loved the story book. I want a Luma.

text: Yeah, the purple coin stage on the luigi planet pissed me off sooooo much. I didn't realize the first time I got 100 coins that the star goes back to the beginning. I had no platforms to jump that far to get it haha.

*golf clap* j/k, good job Maximum

Have you guys ever watched computers fight on Melee? It's so boring, and they do stupid things for no reason(like Captain Falcon doing up+b when nobody is even near him multiple times). Let's not even get started Luigi's over+b, haha.

Good job, zircon.

I'm sure plenty of people are. How would they execute this player search function that you desire? Do you know how many people use the same name, or how many people would pose as a good player by using their name?

Have you even heard any of the pieces from Super Mario Galaxy?

Club Nintendo has always been something we non-Japanese have always been jealous of. Now I'm 10x as jealous. They get a Wii compatible SNES controller, 2-disc Super Mario Galaxy Soundtrack(I want!), and a Mario Desk Calender. http://club.nintendo.jp/rank2007/index.html It's just not fair I tell you. Not fair!

Wow, very unexpected. Pretty cool.

There were so many times where I should have fallen off on the rolling ball, but somehow I never did, haha.

No, I'm just trying to drive as little as possible, so what better way than to stay inside most of the day and play video games? Gas is nearing $3.20 a gallon here, so screw that.

Oh well, I'll just get it on the 20th. I'll get paid by then.

Yet another title I need to pick up. Dammit, I'm so poor right now because of all of these good games coming out. Btw, where did you get it? It doesn't release at BBY until the 20th.

I just beat it. This game is just too amazing. It's everything Mario 64 was but better. I liked the ending. It's better than baking a cake for Mario Spoilers: There's still the special ending for getting 120 stars.

I was actually getting ready to post about this.

"This is the power button the Wii. You use this to power on your console to play Super Smash Bros. Brawl! There's is also a power button on the Wii controller." Some people are thinking the exact same thing for Lucas/Ness.
