Does this work on the Wii?[edit]

Yes? No? Should be mentioned in the article. --Josh1billion 01:32, 4 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

How could it work with the Wii? It plugs into a hole in the bottom of the GCN. 70.29.212.131 (talk) 09:22, 13 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Lost something....[edit]

I remember there being a game called "Lost ..... 2", I don't remember what the second word was, but I remember it being advertised as having an online mode. 24.7.141.45 (talk) 17:36, 20 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'll get to this eventually. Cognissonance (talk) 10:32, 12 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

History[edit]

  • "then still codenamed the "Dolphin"" Could you add the source that follows (GameSpot) next to this? IGN doesn't mention it.
    • Done
  • "Nintendo remained cautious and tight-lipped" Isn't "tight-lipped" just another way of saying "cautious"?
    • Not really. Cautious means that internally at Nintendo, they were tentative and leery on how to approach online gaming. Tight-lipped means they were not talking publicly about it. They could have been cautious and outspoken, or determined and tight-lipped, but not the case here. If you have a better word to sum it up by all means, but I couldn't find one.

Hardware[edit]

  • Add links to Ethernet and Dial-up Internet access.
    • Done
  • "but the Broadband Adapter is required for LAN-only games and Homeland" The source has no mention of "Homeland".
    • Added source

Supported games[edit]

  • This whole section needs more past tense language.
    • I think I fixed it. I battled with this myself because the games can STILL be played online. The official support was the only thing discontinued.
  • "while also fixing bugs and exploits" The source does not mention this.
    • Removed
  • Refs. 34, 35, 36 (Spike-Chunsoft) are not displaying the same things as the archived versions. I'd suggest switching to deadurl=yes. Also, none of them have the language= parameter.
    • Done
  • Ref. 37 (Konami) also doesn't have a language= parameter.
    • Done

Overall[edit]

Very impressive and clean. Cognissonance (talk) 11:31, 12 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
