Mcdonald's doesn't seem to be the best place to play Wi-Fi with your DS. As far as I'm concerned, the greasy food that you eat will probably leave greasy spots on your buttons while you play, if you eat at that time. Unless you eat a salad, there's no effective way around it. You could eat and then play but some people are going to be annoying during your gameplay asking you questions that you're not in the mood to answer. Because of them, you might lose your Wi-Fi matches more often. Do you like the idea of little kids asking if they could play my game or asking what a DS is? You're really stuck unless you know what time the restaurant is usually empty without many people. My recommendation is to stay home. Enjoy the comfort of your home and never feel that you have to rush to finish your game. And if you think about it, Mcdonald's food is not that healthy. Are you sure you want so much more body fat on you??? Mcdonald's also seems to be losing their popularity and are the Wi-Fi servers just another idea to force you to eat at Mcdonald's and give them more profit. Please don't link to your own board. Sourcing is fine but it's your board and your article so there's no need to. Plus it's semi-advertising. |

Well, a lot of kids like McDonalds so it seems like a great advertisement to me. Plus, McDonalds paid for it, not Nintendo. |

Mc donalds payed for it, because they knew people would come to play wi-fi, and so they make more profit. The sad thing about mcdanolds is Even though everyone at least 10 years and up won't eat there very often because let's face it, Mc donalds is greasy fatty and just gross. But since the kids under 10 don't care, they will always beg their parents to take them there, and since mc donalds will always have the little kids eating there they will never go out od business. The main reason i HATE mcdonalds and will never eat there again is because there was hair (yes thats right HAIR) in my big mac. I havn'y eaten there since then and that was 2 years ago. |

It is an excellent marketing idea. I don't see why you actually disagree with it. The parents buy them the food, the parents buy them the video game player, the parents buy them the games, the parents bring them to McDonalds, and then the parents supervise what they do there. Where is the problem? |
