Well, there are many new games comming out and they are starting to create wifi. The only question is which is the best. I have all of the wifi games except Tony Hawk: American Sk8land. So I will inform you on which is the best and eaisest to use. How about we start with the Older Games.

Now this site is based on this game so most of us know how to play this game but some don't understand some things about wifi. Now most of us think of it as an awsome expirence to be able to chat. There are a few problems with Chating in this game that bugs me. Some people spam instead of having a serious conversation. Also you may not move while chating even though it could be hard to chat while moving. Another problem with AC:WW is that once you are on wifi the only way of leaving a town is to go to the gate or to Power Off which is not a good idea. If you could press Start and have an option to leave a town would be good if you have been trapped. Lastly there is lag. So far every wifi game I have played has not had major lag. While we can not control lag it can be our fault for glitching the town. Overall the wifi is pretty good and you can have so much fun playing this game.

Overall Wifi Grade: 8.0/10.0

This is a good game for all of you racing fans. Nothing special about this wifi just there isn't as much lag compared to Animal Crossing: Wild World. With this game you control racers from the Mario Series such as Luigi, Daisy and of course the star Mario. What I don't like about this is that some people are sore losers. They just turn the game off when they are about to loose. No one likes a sore looser but there are some so that makes people furious. Who cares what you record is. Another thing that bugs people are snakers. Now snakers do not make wifi worse all they are very expirenced players who can play the entire track with power bosting and usually win. Now that just makes people want to power off which is bad. This is a good game that I would suggest for wifi.

Overall Wifi Grade: 8.5/10.0

Well these are the newest games. They are both good on wifi and they are pretty new to me. What I like the most about Metroid Prime Hunters is that when you beat someone you unlock the character they used. That is the best way to get new characters. In Tetris it is hard to get the flow of beating people but you will get used to it. In MPH there are a few things I don't like. Such as if you are playing Ds to Ds mode and you play with all bots. If you power off it counts toward your grade card which is what gives you your reputation. Tetris is perfectly fine the way it is. I would have never thought of making it wifi. Go Nintendo! Both games are both excelent and you should pick them both up at the store.

Overall MPH Wifi Grade: 9.0/10.0
Overall TDS Wifi Grade: 8.5/10.0

Now you are proably asking which is the best. In my oppinion it would be Metroid Prime Hunters becasue of the graphics and the gameplay. It is just awsome. Now you are asking well what is in the future for the Wifi War? Well there is a new wifi game comming out very soon called Lost Magic. Not much has been told about it. Also there is a question about The Revolution having wifi. We aren't a 100% sure but whatever Nintendo has in store for us, It shall be great....
 
I've only been online on Mario Kart, Animal Crossing, and Tony Hawk (my router broke a week before Metroid released; oh noes!). Out of those three, my favorite game is Mario Kart, but the online system is much better on Tony Hawk. Probably because they've made an online game before, and Mario Kart was Nintendo's first.
 
Very well wirtten.
I also agree with many of your downsides to online play in ACWW and MKDS.
 
Wow, very good post. :yes:

As for best, I would say Metroid Prime: Hunters as it makes communication between people easier, with the microphone. This eliminates the communication length that AC:WW had. MP:H is also a little more challenging and fun to play with someone over Wi-Fi, IMO.
 
Thanks.


^_^

You are right. If ACWW had a mircophone usage that would make more people use it but that would just casue even more lag than there already is.
 
Wow its really hard to choose but I would have to say ACWW because I love visiting people's town its fun and you can see what native fruit they have, villagers etc
 
Great post...

AC:WW gets my pick for worst online game... lag, severe limitations, and no voice chat really hurt this game... MKDS places second, and MPH is first for me; voice chat, no lag (some have experienced it, though, but I haven't), and all courses are online. You could only ask for voice chat during the game, but honestly, I'm already content with what I have.

Haven't played Tetris DS and Tony Hawk, so I can't comment on that...
 
I agree.. MP:H Online > All other..

I have not bought TDS, so I can't comment. Here are my rankings:

1 MPH
2 MKDS
3 THAS
4 ACWW

20$ says tetris is less fun online than animal crossing.
 
Haven't tried AC:WW wi-fi but I think it would be ok. MPH is the best because of voice chat. MKDS is annoying <_<
