If you were to ask Michael Pachter what he thinks about Nintendo's current standing in the online capability race, he'd tell you that the company would have to push for a new console just so it could compete in the online market. Actually, you don't even have to ask Pachter; he'll tell it to you anyway.

"Are we ever going to see Nintendo create an online capability where people can play against one another, with one another, bringing your friends into games?" he mused on his Gametrailers.com show, Pach Attack. "I think you should look for Nintendo to develop online multiplayer first. I think you'll probably see a game not like Left 4 Dead in terms of content but like Left 4 Dead in terms of co-op gameplay. I think a co-op Mario game would be great where you have three or four players from locations."

But since the Wii's hardware capabilities offer much of a hindrance to this multiplayer wonderland, Pachter's solution is for them to have a new console. "You're probably going to need a little more storage in the box."
