Mario Kart will be the better online game. There is no stat tracking- wins/losses in Smash Bros Brawl. No online leaderboards, and limited communication options with other players. Mario Kart supports 12 players online, 2 per wii console. And lots of stat tracking. Battle mode and race wins/losses, etc.

That's my opinion, what's yours?

Well, seeing as I really don't care about leader-boards or stats, and I LOVE SSB, my opinion is that SSBB will be better, as a matter of fact, I have already played it (Japanese version) on line, and if MK Wii plays about the same as on the DS, then I know I like SSBB much better.

I for one could care less about leadorboards in SSBB. The online in Brawl will be better and more intense IMO.

Brawl. More modes, more stuff to do online, although leaderboards would have been nice.

I agree. Especially since Brawl has so many modes and character/stage options.

did you see the online features on the SSBB website in the daily updates? they got online features coming out the ying yang, although MK Wii has some crazy stuff it doenst have anything on SSBB, besides the lack of the leaderboard and Stat tracking means no Disconnect because they are losing and dont wannamess up their record, so that means its a better game because look at what happen in MK DS and Mario Strikers Charged you had people disconnecting because they were losing and another thing i like about brawl is even if your opponents decides to be a Beeotch and disconnect cuz they are losing even though theres no reason since it wont affect you the online system will take over their character and control it for the rest of the game so the game doesnt get affected and the flow of the game stays the same unless the computer character really sucks lol

I think ssbb will be better then mario kart because theres so much characters on brawl and so much poepl pre orderd brawl so they'll all be online. Also You can watch people fight and bid on them with the coins that you get by playing single player (I have Japanese Brawl). Personly super smash brothers is a amazing game to me. I cant wait till it comes out. I also like the game mario kart but brawl all the way.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl will be way better. So what if it has limited communication and no leader boards? This way, when you beat some real bad, they can't cuss you out, and there's no proof of you losing.

leaderboards only show the people who seriously need a life, and for all you know the person just beat a friend over and over thousands of times just to get wins.

ssbb will be better just because each charcter gives variety, unlike mario kart in which all chars are the same.

NO doubt it will be Mario Kart Wii. Don't get me wrong Brawl will be amazing but the online will be sucktastic for brawl. I mean 2 minute regular battles. Me and my friends play stock we never play timed battles. No names, what is up with that? Mario Kart will have 2 player online which wins it right there.

SSBB's online will easily be better. It should be since they took their time getting it to us.

you call

not seeing a random person's name in a random match, no voice chat or any kind of chat for that matter, no leaderboards, no customization with random matches taking their time? :?

not saying they din't take their time with the game itself but you can't honestly be serious if you think they put real effort for online.

i think Brawl might end up being more fun not despite the lack of leaderboards, but due to the lack of leaderboards because as others have explained they tend to bring out the worst in people.

in any case i hope both will be great and everyone here will be having endless hours of fun online with both of them.

You think they had a choice? Blame Nintendo for their overuse of friend codes. Besides I don't care if you think the online is crappy. I'm happy they put one in at all.

After the dominance of MKDS. Adding 8 more people online is just crazy. Ill proabbly end up playing Brawl online more, but MK will be better.

I'm thinking Kart will handle better online.
And quite honestly, I think I'd enjoy it more. I'm pretty ggod at Kart (at least I think I am), and Brawl will be my first Smash Bros. experience.

While I really like the stat tracking of mario kart, it all depends on if snaking is included. I prefer playing it w/o snaking

Don't really know that much about mario kart online so I go with Smash bros . As long as online for both of them I don't care how good they are.

Snaking in Mario Kart will ruin the experience for me to some degree, so I'll go with Brawl.

It'a already been made official that snaking is in. You know what that means. Stat tracking + snaking = no chance for someone like me who plays for fun ... to actually have fun, except with friends. That's why a good friends roster is important. It also helps that I have 3-4 personal friends who are getting it (hopefully both games), so it might be ok even if random matches ultimately suck for me as they did for MKDS after a while.

Seeing as how neither of the two games are out yet, I'm not going to speculate. I'll just say that both are going to provide many hours of online enjoyment.

I find MK's online to be more fleshed out but I'm guessing I'll like brawls online more.

fond memories of mario kart 64 in undergrad has me leading towards mario kart wii. we played that quite a bit more than ssb.

may have to reinstate the mario kart drinking rules. drink if you get passed, drink if you wreck due to powerup, and 3 drinks if you lose the match. nvm, i can't do that anymore.. ugh..

Got to go for Mario Kart Wii 12 player racing and battle mode leaderboard and Mario Kart Channel Super Smash Bros Brawl will have a stage builder which is okay but Mario Kart is always fun online.
