Relax. Live wasn't available at the Xbox's launch, and look at how fast that grew.

not very fast at all really... it kindabombed on the original xbox and its only got 60% take up of 360 (of which how much is just novalty and how much is actual people playing?)

wii online probably wont go very far at all for another 5 years.

Thinking about it. I'd actually expect there to be no online games at all on day one.
Most of the games set for launch, first party games at least, don't look like they're gonna be online ones.
There's a few that will be multiplayer for sure but they've been making such a big deal about getting people to play together in all of the promo videos rather than playing online.
