The problem with Nintendo is that EVERYTHING they do is too far ahead of its time. They need to try making products people of the past can comprehend. If they understood that, they'd dominate.

Didn't they have that in mind when making the Wii

its no different than the sega channel, the concept of gaming clans and a lot of stuff originated on there

It was interesting what the sega channel was able to achieve over the satellaview in terms of raw transmission speed

Satellite transmission is always surprisingly slow and shitty on the small scale

Dunno if it was true, but some dude on the last sat thread pointed out it was a way for the jap government to roll out their own satellite network for military ops, etc covertly using it's initial soon to be bankrupted commercial satellite applications as a cover

He was lying. It was the illuminati and gay aliens who were behind it.

I would say so. Those live voiced scenarios for games on the service over satellite was truly ahead of it's time.
