Don't you hate when you're playing Smash Bros. then you get those lag spikes! I've only had 3 games so far where there was completely no lag. I hope nintendo improves their online service in the future.

Mario Kart Wii and Dr Mario has none of those lag problems. Though with Brawl out here in PAL regions in the end of the month then we all will probably suffer bad lag on the game if it is as bad as many Americans say it is.

Ironically Mario Strikers online is almost unplayable alot of the time here (it actually totally feeezes or runs as a slideshow) but in the US i have heard it doesn't have those problems.

well it is free, so you have to expect they are tight on their budget for a while, but once they have the money flowing in really well, then maybe they'll upgrade the servers

*Facepalm*No, Nintendo is making so much money how are they on a budget? The service is free and I doubt they will improve it, though that would be nice, they probably wont, maybe for their next gen console perhaps.

They are tight with money and that is why we won't be getting any sort of upgrade, Iwata runs Nintendo that way.

About the latter part of that comment, Strikers for me works perfectly fine, I rarely ever have lag. And if I do get lag, it's because the other user is attempting to run on Dial Up or the like, which is completely stupid. I hope Brawl works lie a charm.

The matches was against a GS friend who lives in the same city as me and both have fast internet (4 star connection), the changes in lag can be dramatic in the game.

I don't have any lags on Dr.Mario Online RX. Sometimes, I can have lags on SSBB but I don't play worldwide on SSBB while I play worldwide at Dr.Mario Online RX.

Nintendo Wifi is decent. SSBB friend matches are still really fun, despite the lag. I hear Mario Kart's wifi is great. Must be your connection.
