Basically, no more playing mariokart, brawl (not that it was any good with all dat lag), or any other wii/ds games online.

Disclaimer: none of these messages have been edited, context can be provided if needed (thanks discord!) but absolutely does not change anything about these messages and that he's too overly defensive and cocky to make situations better

Karyete: I don't have anything to say to you, I've been deliberately trying to not offend you for years, actually, but apparently everything I say to you is wrong. You come across as so aggressive that you successfully intimidated me into not wanting to talk to you
Karyete: Seriously, what is your problem? And not only that, you fail to even acknowledge you might be in some wrong here.
Karyete: Oooh it's you? Hello. Feel free to drop this right now. You're going to make yourself look like an idiot.
Karyete: We don't want to hear your opinion at this stage.
Karyete: You're not getting any apology, especially after now.
Karyete: You can stay up on your high horse, continue to twist the truth and act like an absolute child all you want. I refuse to give respect to a man who right now is picking up a dropped argument because he simply cannot fathom the idea that he might be in the wrong.
Karyete: How pathetic

Funny that mK8 is coming in may too.

Too bad for Pokemon B2/W2 users though.

I remember that they said they were going to discontinue it a while ago, so I'm not all that surprised. They have to make room for the newer game servers somehow.

At least the Wii Shop Channel will continue. : D

To be honest, I really don't think the killing of the Wi-Fi feature is going to be a real issue overall. I bet the online features for most DS and Wii games are already quiet (I haven't checked the DS/Wii Wi-Fi servers out yet, but I think it's safe to assume that a large amount of gamers already prefer more recent platforms' online multiplayer over the older ones.). Besides, the 3DS/2DS (and I guess the Wii U, which I don't have) clearly is much better and more improved - I think I've made my point.
But yeah. There are some of those popular games that'll take a hit, but I don't think it'll hurt Nintendo too much.

Mario Kart Wii still seemed to be somewhat active, but not nearly as much as it had been a year or two ago. Too bad I never got to max VP in that.

I know a LP channel that pretty much revolves around MKWii Online Play and MKWii/CTGP in general. I wonder what happens with them.
