Iwata: Nintendo's Online Services Look like Patchwork

It would be great if we could see some improvement to these services before the wiiu is over. They should take from steam and xbl or even psn. Connecting, Playing, Communicating need to be there and easy. Invites and onscreen notifications would be great.

Real talk here. It shouldn't be based on steam. Steam isn't multiplatform. However it should at least resemble psn where if you buy a game on one console you own it on all of your consoles. Also I hope they integrate their reward schemes on the actual game systems.

Steam or pre PS4 PSN. I do not want to have to "subscribe" to play online. That is horrible. Not that I play much online anyway, but if I would like to I do not want to resort to having to play extra for that.

As it is currently is good enough if you ask me, but if they are going to resort to that I do most certainly want them to take inspiration from Steam.
