With some gamers catching onto the gamble that is PlayStation Plus, do you think hardcore gamers would buy into a paid subscription service for Wii. Some features would be stuff like: 
 
universal friends list with usernames 
access to demos for games on WiiWare 
Sales on WiiWare Games 
more reliable online play 
Headset chat 
 Etc 
 
There are many other things they could do, but I just wanted to get opinions to see if you would even think about buying it. Lets go with a $50 a year model much like the others.

LOL.  No.

Hell no.

hahahahaha what? There's not even a network to associate the service to.

I shouldn't have to pay for a friends list
I shouldn't have to pay for demos, also there are probably a handful of demos that i would actually want to try.
I don't buy Wii Ware games
I don't play online
Head set chat will get a maximum use of 3 times for me.
 
I barley play my Wii. I wait for exclusives and that's it.

Heck no.

That's what I thought a lot of hardcore gamers would react. I'm the same way, I just wanted to see if they would do anything that could convince you to buy it.

Hell no, is that a joke?
if it let me download and play any and all virtual console games for free as long as I'm subscribed then yes

NEVER

Nope i even disconnected my wii from the internet, stupid updates making it glow

not even on a cold day in hell.
Nintendo has continually taken a back seat on their online to the point that the online on the Wii is uselss and even would kill your system (wii connect 24/7 would keep the system hot yet no fans running, It all most killed my first wii) they could have put their efforts however small they were into making the system just a little better in other places instead of doing their lame attempts at online.

online? 10000 times 0 is still 0

I just don't get Nintendo's apathy towards online when it seems to be the biggest market for games these days. Is it some sort of difference between Japanese and Western gamers that I'm just not picking up on? That explanation doesn't even really make sense because Sony seems to be doing fine with their online. Then you have Japanese developers like Capcom who make awesome online experiences.

I can not think of more than 1 game that i have spent more than 2 minutes online on. So no.

the only game i ever played online was mario strikers which admittedly was pretty fun. with friends. but then i sold it and realized there was nothing else to play

Nope! And here is why!
 
Universal friends list with usernames - I don't even have that many friends on my Wii.
Access to demos for games on WiiWare - Those would probably take up too much room, and I'm not a big fan of the games on WiiWare.
Sales on WiiWare Games - Once again, I don't like the games available on WiiWare.
More reliable online play - How are they going to do that?
Headset chat - Should already be available. I don't have to pay for this on PS3, so why on Wii?
 
 
Don't worry though, it's not your fault. I don't think there is anything Nintendo could make available right now to justify a paid subscription. Just won't work for them.

And then play what?
