Well, Nintendo was last in the race to have online play available for their consoles, but the online play is missing some stuff. You know XBOX Live and the acheivements? The PS3 has aquired something close to that with their trophies. Now the only left system to aquire that is the Nintendo Wii. Nintendo hasn't been doing so good in the console war all the way. The sales could soon make history, but the online support is noticably lacking. Online play is on the system, but Nintendo, there is one more thing missing, and that would be an achievements system. Nintendo has an online store, online play, but no online achievements system like XBOX Live.

Another thing missing is a real online community. Nintendo's console is perfectly capable of making such an online community. As we are well aware thanks to Super Smash Bros Brawl, the servers can handle a hell of pressure. Nintendo could be the 2nd to do this, after the Playstation 3 and the XBOX 360.

Nintendo's advancement in the console war has been and still is very crappy. They've recently offered WiiWare, which is another milestone, but Nintendo, we need more of a connected online community with acievements and no friend code hassles. If that's not enough, then Nintendo definently needs to wake up and produce more channels, including a video/media channel.
