To be honest I never remembered any issue with Wii online gameplay, I do understand where people are coming from though with price -comparisons to different platforms it's more likely they'd go for that instead of Switch, BUT nitendo still has a decent community and they can't really compare nitendo stuff with ps4/xbox etc when majority of the audience for nitendo is young and it's more advertised for them that's why I don't expect it to be so great but I'm actually still thinking to get just because it's different and I think it will have fairly good games to keep fun. love the zelda graphics!

Wii online was a nightmare. Friend codes were horrible, and each game had its own friend code. There was practically no voice chat in any games except I think Animal Crossing, and the only way to voice chat was with the speaker thing. A lot of games I was excited for with online had poorly implemented online(like smash brothers) that had button lag which imo is the worst way to implement online. Compared to Xbox and even Playstation it was just... "there."
Also, the other consoles have parental controls. Nintendo should not be dumbing down online for everyone because of their target demographics. That's practically what made the Wii online so bad.
