NBA Live 09 on the Wii.
Don't you think we deserve better?
Come on EA, what do you think we are? 3 year olds.
EA Sports 08 had no features at all. But people went along with it as we all believed that this was just a trial for the Wii.
But we come to '09 and what has changed?
Oh, some basic boring features.

- Unique Wii Experience - Yay, we can wave our Wii remotes around like Idiots, again.

- 2 on 2 - Kobe and Lebron v Paul and Anthony... Yes! (sarcasm)

- All Play Controls - Isn't that the same as Unique Wii Experience

- Point and Pass - We could do something easier and better than that in '08. It's called pressing the D-Pad

- Advanced Control - Please have Sprint!

- Re-Live the Glory Days - Same controls, just holding it sideways!

- 21 - At least there is one good thing!

- Slam Dunk - Well I hope they are better because '08's was terrible!

- 3 Point Shootout - How is that new?

- Simplified Online - 'Finding an opponent and entering a game should be just as simple in the online space as it would be if they were sitting next to you on the couch'.
Wasn't it always that easy?

- FIBA Expanded - Can they at least have the right rosters!

- WNBA Players - I don't want to scrutinize woman's basketball but, there are so many things you can add, yet you add WNBA Players? Strange...

- Take your team from start to finish - Yay you can play a season. Oh woops, you could do that last time, my bad.

EA, Come on, this is terrible. Madden 08 and FIFA 08 on the Wii was good. And NBA was terrible. '09 looks even worse.

We don't get Dynamic DNA or NBA Live 365 or Rewind or any good features like that.

EA, all we want is a bit of effort, please.

    • Come on, we really deserve something better. We shell out the same money for the game, but we do not get the gameplay like XBOX or PS3 users... How fair is that? It's a small market, but it's a market.

    • Yeah, i'm sure they could have been more expansion in career mode, I mean if I can save 8 seperate seasons, why can't i play for 8 years on the xbox edition.

    • i wouldn't even care if they said sorry but they dont seem to care, wii is the biggest selling console yet they dont understand they could make more money by selling more units, come on ea, even if it was held back something has to be done, pull your finger out.

    • I just want a franchise mode!!!! I've love everything about the wii except nba live 09. NBA and Mlb are two sports i do franchises on and i love mlb. THe only thing i don't like about the wii is NBA Live. I wasted my 50 dollars last year and reserved a copy early this year with downpayment and found out NO FRANCHISE!!!! I've been playing NBA live 06 for GAMECUBE on my WII THE PAST 4 YEARS KNOW having to "create a player" for all the rookies. If NBA live 2010 isn't better or there arent' any roster updateds for 09, i will never buy another NBA Live Again....

    • I have always loved wii and NBA Live, but why can't they put a little more effort into it. I honestly can say I love the NBA and Basketball so much that part of my life is having an NBA franchise to play every season, but I've had to play 06 for gamecube the past few years. Could you at least make an NCAA 09 for a winter release or something. Anything?

    • Why even bother making NBA Live without Franchise or Roster Updates. Don't care about Player DNA, sounds like something for NBA Player Stalkers, but at least have Franchise. OH and need to ditch the passing technique too. PLEASE...

    • well at least you guys are lucky my nba live 06 broke about 2 years ago and i been still looking for another copy of it. I really wished that ea would work with 2k to make the best game for all the system so they have more time to make the game and have more skills to make it the best game. By using both of their perfect features together
