Unique meaning it will be the farthest thing from user-friendly and will lag in a way no online service has ever lagged. Exciting! Please Reggie, ever since you told us Animal Crossing was a game for the "core" audience, we're seeing right through the fluff.

1.1 - I don't think they are going to make any huge changes to online aspect.
I mean why would they need to?

The Wii Sells nonetheless.

Also, developing AAA or quality games is important. I haven't seen a single wii news for a month, I think.

Hopefully they improve the online. It's really a major hassle to the Wii.

Right now, the Wii is in lack of an "online community" at all. So just hearing that they are working on a community is great news for me.

Is this supposed to be an encouraging statement IF and When, is nintendo being dragged into it against their will?

Shouldn't it be when and not if and when.
