... and Nintendo's likely involvement/support?

Hey there guys, how's it going?! I was just looking over a fairly old thread of mine(those developer updates thingies) and I believe it's possible I may have overlooked potentially huge hints of efforts Nintendo may be investing in(behind the scenes), relative to the online field. Some sparse details I didn't treat with the awareness they deserves.

Well...

Click here (http://www.gametavern.net/forums/showthread.php?threadid=2864), and scroll down to the last company on the list Netdol Entertainment, and read the section below it..

Here are the main highlights and their possible implications.

"Netdol promises to; 'approach to our customers with best qualities and services through MMOG(Multi Platform On-line Game) filed'."

Could Nintendo be one of their clients? A partnership perhaps? Last time I checked (http://www.netdol.co.kr/Emenu1_3.htm), the only console system they're signed to is GameCube(and GBA).

"They are working on a 'Game for GBA & GameCube'."

Hmmm...Company that focuses mainly on online components and infrastructures, making GBA/GC game...

"Netdol is; 'Developing Multi Platform Online Game clutching between GBA and GameCube'."

Most interesting comment of all, kinda make everything hard to over look now doesn't it? ;)

This can turn out to be very minor or hopefully something major. At the very least, it's something to be aware of.

Any thoughts? Speculations? :unsure:

Yeah, I bet! That was the main point of the developer thread I used to update -- (Which by the way, seriously needs another update)introducing some info and other interesting, GameCube related -- details.

Mario Kart online, I want MKO. Well, I know they are doing a research on online games. I just hope they make a move soon. I think they have some games that have much potential for online.
