Mario Party DS may have been one of the more exciting DS-related news items to come out of E3, except it was missing one very useful addition: Wi-Fi multiplayer. Wireless multi-card play was included, which is all well and fine, but a soft, sad sigh rippled through us as we realized we couldn't throw down over the internets, Mario Party-style.But wait! Not all hope is lost, it seems. An image has turned up from Nintendo's 2007 catalogue that includes a Wi-Fi logo on the Mario Party DS page. But just what that tiny Wi-Fi logo means, we don't know. It could be Mario Mail rather than anything actually useful. It could even be a misprint for all we know -- but it gives us a tiny shred of hope for the future.

For me I think online play will make or break the deal. After all, what else in a Mario Party game could be different than playing it on a TV with a couple friends? If I could play against living beings every time, I think that I could play something like that a lot. Assuming no one "cheats" (I'm looking at you snakers)

WiFi would make me buy this game. Without WiFi, I have absolutely no interest in it.

I agree with Shogan, If it has WiFi, id pre-order it now. Without it I have no reason to get it.
