Nintendo Wii Online Problems Continue For Smash Bros. Brawl


According to sources, online problems continue for Nintendo's best-selling Wii game Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

Nintendo has come out and stated that bandwith issues are to blame for the majority of the problems regarding online performance.

Nintendo spokesperson sent an e-mail to GamePro on Monday, stating "As with the launch of any online-enabled game, especially one as popular as Super Smash Bros. Brawl, everyone wants to play at once. This puts a strain on the pipeline."

It appears that the strain has yet to end either, as reports coming in as late as Wednesday night appear to prove that the online problems continue.

Nintendo has stated that they have seen improvements in online play daily since launch, but with 1.4 million copies sold, it seems that there are just too many gamers for Nintendo to handle.
