I wouldn’t say fixed, because nothing can be done about lag from a wireless device. But it definitely can be lowered.

You would be very surprised at the lengths some people will go to in order to weaponize the way someone else votes on a comment or post online. People really couldn’t be any less petty.

I don’t know, I find people do all sorts of stuff with their networks all the time that has me scratching my head trying to figure out why they set it that way when I am eventually called to fix it.

This seems like a bad idea.

What sort of protections are in place against nefarious actors that gain access to this network? Do they do anything to isolate each connected device from each other so that two devices on the network cannot connect to each other, such as making use of subnets? Are users connections throttled, and if so, to what degree? Are certain websites blocked to prevent potential malicious actors from intercepting sensitive data more easily, such as bank sites?

I mean, the idea is a well intentioned one, but I can easily see this going very wrong very quickly.

Honestly, I am not sure what I was expecting, but it was clearly too much.

WiiU was underpowered when it launched. Even if someone had utilized it 100%, it still would have been behind compared to the Xbox360 and PS3. 720p only when the Xbox and PS2 were already supporting 720p and 1080i was also a bad choice.

WiiU was just a bunch of bad choices combined in a single product. Bad hardware choices, bad marketing, bad name, requiring the massive gamepad for console setup, etc.

GameCube was good, but I say the SEGA Dreamcast definitely takes the Underrated and Underutilized Console award.
