Hey,
If you cannot tell already I am a huge
fan of both Nintendo, and Zelda.
However I am concerned about the
approach that Nintendo is taking towards
this next-generation. The Wii is a great
system, and is a great concept (truly),
(which is why it outsell the PS3 6 to 1 in Japan)
however it lacks the RAW power needed to
fuel the utmost desires of (not only) Nintendo
fans (such as myself), but of the rest of the
gaming community in general. To this date I
have yet to hear Nintendo announce a TRUE
online game. The new Pokemon game that
came out recently claims to have online
functionality, however in reality the Wii systems
send out small bits of information
(moves, pokemon status, etc).
Nothing TRULY remarkable, if compared
even to last generation Online gaming.
What Nintendo should do, if it wishes to
remain "Top Dog" this generation is
(at least) create First-Party titles that
utilize TRUE online functionality. That way
third party companies, can deem the Wii
interesting enough to take the time and effort to create
decent Online titles for the Wii. Yes it is great to
bring gaming to the masses, but Nintendo should
consider the rest of the gaming community as
well. Nintendo is a successful company because
of it's great First Party characters (Mario, Zelda, Kirby, etc),
Nintendo should utilize the power of the Wii, and reinvent
these First Party titles by making them Online
functional. Some titles are better off without
Online capabilities, however there are some titles
that I (and perhaps the rest of the gaming community)
would wish could of had been Online functional.
(Such as last-gen title "Super Smash Bros. Melee")
My name is Luis, and I am a huge fan
of Nintendo, if you wish to reach me

I hope that there are enough people
as passionate as I am about gaming.
It is truly a massive market that is not
always respected by the general public.
If enough people read this and pass it
on to their friends, eventually we should
catch the eyes and ears of Nintendo,
so that they may bring quality gaming
to this next generation of video games.
Thank You!
