The new NBA Live for the Wii will feature 8 players able to play together online in a game. (as Nintendo Power reports)

This is really cool but I don't know how many times you're going to be able to find 8 people who want to play a game. Then I wonder how they're going to be able to play the game as far as picking players. I mean do you have to stay LeBron the entire game or can you switch players during the game to the lone CPU controlled player?

If so can you imagine how hectic that game will be when fully fleshed out with a full roster of online players?

So far all they've said is 8 player multiplayer. Now if that means 4 people per house or 8 different houses it's yet to be seen.

That would be awesome if it was 1 person per house and/or 4 per house. I would definately just stay on LeBron considering he is the best basketball player right now.

Awesome!!! I've been looking into this game for awhile and that pretty much seels the deal for my buying it unless the graphics don't get tightened up a bit.

Good thing the Wii seem to be quicker at finding people online than the DS. I hate waiting five minutes for three opponents on Mario Kart (which I usually end up with only one by the time it's done).

Very cool. Not interested in the game, though. I bet the new Mario Kart will let us play with at least 7 other players online, judging by what they said at the conference..

and I'm sure it feels the same about you. also to answer the questionI would assume that players can switch by using the CPU character. Like say we are playing as the Bulls and I am Nocioni, and someone else is Gordon, and the CPU is Heienrich. And I want to be Gordon, I could switch to the CPU controller player, while the other person switches to Nocioni, and I switch to Gordon once he becomes free. Of course that is alot of effort and it would be easier to just stick with one player.
