Have anyone heard anything else on the Pay to Play that Nintendo had announced a while back.

No that wasn't Pay to Play. My Life as A King had downloadable content. They said the Pay to Play would be a wi-fi emblem on games but it would be red.

Yes, it was Pay to Play. Pay to Play is DLC.

I bought My Life as a King. In the purchase description, it mentioned Pay to Play and had the red emblem on the description page. It then described how Pay to Play allowed you to download new levels, different races, new buildings and new clothes all for real money.

Cheers :)

Well Then why does Nintendo make everything so difficult just call it DLC. Nintendo is always a step behind everyone.

Why do they call things the way they do. It's called giving it a name to make it sound more enticing. Like Wiiconnect24; why don't they just call it Wii internet connection 24 hours a day.

Cheers :)

I understand the Wiiconnect24 but Pay to Play is idiotic. When you could use 3 letters to describe what Pay to Play is. DLC.

Just like you can use 3 characters for Pay to Play: P2P. DLC is downloadable content; it's kind of long when you type it out like that.

Cheers :)

Yeah we aren't typing it out though. P2P means other things anyway. DLC doesn't mean anything else.
