So, I booted up my copy of 007 Goldeneye for the Wii on my Wii U to play a little (been quite a while since the last time I played this game) and, before I began, just for the lols, I decided to go on the online multiplayer to see what would happen. After all, in case you do not remember/know, the Nintendo Network has been shutdown about two years ago, so I got curious to know what sort of message I would get for attempting to connect and play this game online. And you know what? It worked!! O_o And there's quite some people still playing Goldeneye!

I was like...

But happy, nonetheless! The easy explanation for this "miracle" should be simple, though: Goldeneye's online functionalities run on its own developer's systems instead of GameSpy's, as it was with Nintendo's. Neat!
