If that means helping with advertising, like Monster Hunter Tri...or collaborating with the developers on peripheral designs as they did with the CCPro and Capcom for MHT; they need to do it more."<br /><br />We hear the same mantra console about third party support, Nintendo did some valiant efforts on Wii with Tri, and yes they need to do much more.<br /><br />"Friend codes do need to go though..."<br /><br />Yeah friend codes I feel is a 60/40 chance they will stick around. 3DS has them but much more streamlined, still annoying however.<br /><br />The part of me screaming "IT WON'T HAPPEN!" though, in regards to a drastically improved online system, is the release of the 3DS...why release a handheld, that has virtually no useful online features? <br /><br />Yeah they say they are reaching out and not trying to do everything on their own. Nintendo has always had a DYI attitude about things, but at this level in the game they need to find specalists in the online department. They aren't cuttin the mustard. (How do you cut mustard?)<br /><br />I sounds like were on the same boat here. E3 is going to be interesting to see what Nintendo does. I have a strange feeling I'm going to be a little disappointed. Keeping my fingers crossed however.Brad J.

Saturo Iwata has stated that the company tried to go it alone with the Wii and is goingn to reach out more for help. Hopefully they just farm out their online design to someone with smarts. <br /><br />One not for the 3DS is that its taking so long that they are really trying to get it right for once, but they've had years... years to be working on this so wtf is going on at NOJ?<br /><br />I hope we see new games from Nintendo as well... its one of the major things slowing down the 3DS, there aren't any games worth getting exciting about... its about games... always will be.Brad J.

If that means helping with advertising, like Monster Hunter Tri...or collaborating with the developers on peripheral designs as they did with the CCPro and Capcom for MHT; they need to do it more.<br /><br />"I put up with it crappy online on the Wii, but never again, never again."<br />Playing with friends on the Wii is a pain. Just hopping online and playing some random matches though, is pretty simple and straight forward.<br />Friend codes do need to go though...<br /><br />The part of me screaming "IT WON'T HAPPEN!" though, in regards to a drastically improved online system, is the release of the 3DS...why release a handheld, that has virtually no useful online features? I mean really now, how long were they working on the 3DS...since like the 90s when the Virtual Boy failed? Perhaps if Nintendo had started working on a better online service when the Wii released, it would have been ready 4+ years later when the 3DS released...but no, still not ready. Makes no sense to me.<br /><br />New IPs, I agree.<br /><br />"Nintendo has a lot of talent and second parties at its disposal."<br />Metroid Prime 3, ExciteBots, Endless Ocean, Donkey Kong Country Returns, and many more were developed by second parties, and I hope to see quality titles put out by second parties on the next console as well.<br /><br />Sometime this year...maybe...I'll finish my piece on Project Cafe, we have many points we agree on, and a few tweaks that I think need to happen.coffeewithgameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05381995224445934504noreply@blogger.com
