Online DLC for games.

Some of the games that should have online don't like 3d world. It would make sense for nintendo to patch or add online play to games like star fox 64 3d, and super mario 3d world. Not saying that they're bad without online just saying some people have family and friends who live far away and would play with each other online.

I think one of the big reasons that, at least for the platformers, is the desync issue. I've tried playing platformers on emulators with friends and while it isn't the same thing (by a huge margin), the desync and lag made it unplayable in some areas.

Desync and lag?

 

[SomewhatMystia]

Here's a really solid explanation of desync, because I'm bad with words.

Lag meaning moreso latency as opposed to 'stuttering'. Like when you hit Button 1 to jump and its slightly less than instant response, like a half-second or so, which would completely destroy your performance in reaction-based games like platformers.

hopefully that makes sense; if not, i'll shout at my buddy to explain things

Yes, Nintendo needs Online, it's Gaming's newest standard, any game that doesn't have it is left behind in my book.

A game that REALLY needs online is Kirby Fighters.

You can't just simply patch in internet pvp. It's a pretty huge thing that needs lots of parts to work. It would be quite an undertaking, if it were even possible.

Scott Pilgrim VS The World did it.

Okay, but are we comparing apples and oranges, here? We have server, hardware, and software considerations to take into account, here.

As for games like SM3DW/L or StarFox 64 3D, it's either the developers should have got it working off the bat or bust. Those games have been code frozen and something meant to alter a segmental area of code won't work. An expansion or even an eShop update would be more ideal.

Besides, their releases have come and gone, so it would be unwise to capitalize on them when games such as MK8 and SSB4 have committed online multiplayer with post-launch support heavily indicated.

Don't Starve is getting multiplayer.

Regardless, even if 3D World got online multiplayer, all that means is Nintendo spent a lot of time and resources getting it in after the game. Spending resources on an older game like Starfox 64 3D wouldn't "make sense" though.
