Consumers not ready for online gaming - Nintendo "Harrison commented that "we just don't believe consumers are ready for [online gaming]. Right now, no one's paying for subscriptions. The real test comes when you have to start coughing up $15 a month." I'd say that consumers are ready for on-line multi-player gaming. They're just not ready to nickle and dimed tp PAY FOR IT! I've been playing Quake series, UT, and the Delta Force series on-line for years and other than paying for the game, I've never had to pay for multiplayer on-line access. It sucks when you pay for the game, pay the ISP for access, and then a game managment company subscription fee for an overly value-added on-line subscription. Internet quality, like low lag, is never guarenteed. For the meatime, I'll stick to games that offer multiplayer gaming as part of the game rather than some additional subscription service.

i agree unless the game is super super good then there no fucking way i would pay to play fuck i can make my own network and play with whoever i want why the fuck would i care about paying for a network nintendo provides? thats fucking dumb. why the fuck should i pay for extra for mulitplayer.

JSoloposted - Jul, 08 2003 - 08:06
The guy from Nintendo is wrong. First, look at home and see Everquest, DAoC, Anarchy Online, Sims Online (well, maybe ignore them), Planetside and the like to see that there are people who do indeed pay monthly to play online. If these numbers are not big enough to satisfy him, then he needs to look at the numbers that Lineage pulls. That is by far the most loved and played game around MMORPG game that people do pay for. Of course, these are two different markets - PC gamers versus console gamers, and each one has inherent differences.

These are the first interesting words comming from Nintendo. Of course nobody wants to pay for online gaming. Perhaps if you give away the games for nothing, then MAYBE, but i really doubt. Online gaming is boring anyway, because of the bunch of cheaters.

some PC gamers are also Console gamers there are more than just Two different markets JSolo plus there is the handheld platform. i find that cheating in role playing game in mulitplayer mode is pretty much always there which makes it boring like hell cause the game becomes more like "who has the best cheat" rather than the intended game atmosphere. so i don't buy/play RPG's anymore cause i can't play RPG's in mulitiplayer mode without some fucking loser using a cheat. It almost makes me cry at night to think i can't play RPG's in multiplayer mode without some loser player using a cheat. RPG multiplayer mode has become so gay with all the cheating thats all people do now use cheats why play the game even then? just use a cheat to edit the game so it gives you the "WINNING SCREEN" everytime then you beat it! wooo party!! aren't you fucking cool. Other game types i have not noticed the cheating to be so devestating to the game play. but i still hate cheats there are for fucking losers who can't or will not try to overcome the challenge and instead just ignore it by using a cheat. thats what losers do though they give up. there are pathetic.
