Has anyone else played the Wii U online? The only one I've played is Mario Kart, and it works flawlessly.
My only complaint is that I can't talk to the people I'm playing with. I know they did this so kids wouldn't have to hear the shit that spews from some people's mouths, but at least give me the option. Maybe leave out the chat in the public matches, but let it happen in the Friends only races. I played Mario Kart with my brother last night for an hour or so, and it just wasn't the same with out the trash talk. I can't have my friends sitting on the couch next to me playing these games, but online is a pretty good replacement. Let me talk to people. Let me belittle my friends when I pass them.
Can we all agree that Xbox Live got it right, and everyone else just needs to copy that? You can easily see who's online, what they're playing, and join their game. It's easy. And I can talk to them. The WiiU has a built in speaker and microphone on the Gamepad. Hell, it even has a camera. Put it to use!
