Indeed this does suck. I hope Brawl won't be part of this "Pay to Play" bullcrap.

This will be very annoying for me since I don't get a pay check.
I guess I can see the benefits for game developers and it might lead to better overall wi-fi gaming. (let's face it, the wi-fi gaming for wii now is very limited.) I just hope that most of the games that have wi-fi won't be p2p. -------------------- I claim Scizor also don't pm me and ask me to trade if you don't have anything in mind. |

Ok, t'was moved. XD Anyways, I am not paying for this crap. They may cut my wiffy, but I still have shinies and stuff. I guess I'll just have to give up Pokemon... *sadness*
My parents would hunt me down if I subscribed to it without their permission, so meh. |

As long as the current titles-including those currently out in Japan and not in the rest of the world, I.E. Brawl-, firmware updates, and current services don't become subscription based, I'm fine with it.

If you read the article, it's only going to be future titles with red Nintendo WFC logos on them... and one of the articles was saying that in the interview, they were mostly hinting at downloadble content, and not actual online play.

Another classic example of people worrying about things too much. -------------------- Overtaken by Net & Zodi on that track!

So does that mean Pokemon Diamond WiFi will still be free?
I hope so. And that's all I pretty much care about. |

i doubt it would apply do the DS since there would be no way to pay for it besides credit card.

They would have to modify every Diamond/Pearl game to use "Price-Fi", which would be ridiculous. So it's very likely to stay free...

I don't think they'll simply give up on it, seeing as it sounds like it's pretty much final.

This will inredbily suck.... 'cause I'm starting to really get into DS games.... :| I find the sprites adorable, and I can sit anywhere in the house, beside in a fixed spot with my other consoles.
I just would hate it if they added payment everytime you logged onto Wi-Fi. -------------------- |Pearl ~ 2277-5074-2140 ~ Lots of Dex Entries| Team/Torterra/Staraptor/Gengar/Manetric/Garchomp/Gastrodon |White ~ 4298-2640-8630| Team/Emboar/Unfezant/Scolipede/Zebstrika/Audino/Whisicott |
