The awesome thing about this for me is that it combines a system I don't care about with a service I don't want. It's win-win.

I'm betting the earlier reports that this is wishful thinking by EA (More appropriately, that EA's aggressively pursuing this, rather than it being a mutual thing) are accurate. EA needs this more than Nintendo does. Nintendo would be wise not to tie themselves to any one service, especially a service that is going up against STEEEEEEEEEAM.

It'd be nice to see Nintendo serious about online, though. I'm not a huge online gamer, but it's frustrating as fuck to use their recent services.
