Pay to play cards?

I was wondering are they going to make pay to play cards for people who dont have debit or credit cards? I really think they should consider it....

They already do, they're Wii point cards and you can buy them in stores. Are you referring to Wiiware games? They're bought with points also.

I would imagine that since they have a point system already in place (didn't xbox originally do it with cards also? I think I remember seein em hanging on shelves.) they will continue to use/allow them as acceptable payment methods.

Yes, they will all use wii points. Everything bought from Wii Shop, which is basically all Wiiware/pay to play/VC, basically everything.

Yeh the Pay to Play service is supposed to be similar to the XBox live service. I presume they would use the existing Wii points card system as it is already in place and they have continued the use with wiiware.

what i get out of this pay and play is that it is downloadable content. Not you have to pay to play online like xbox live. I think it is only for the extra downloadable content. Someone correct me if im wrong

Yea so far you are correct but we still have to see cause e3 this year is supposed to have epic announcements for wii
