Fall... and for 34.99 or 95 or whatever it doesn't matter...

I wonder if they will make bigger announcements at E3 now... hmmm...

"Nintendo stated that save for Phantasy Star Online Episode I & II, there will be no online projects shown or discussed at E3 for the GameCube. "

.... neeevermind :hmm:

35 dollars?

I guess that's not too bad...

It also said that the modems would be the same price, like no diff if its a broadband or not, ... you would think the better one would be more eh? o well, im not complaining :D

Woohoo! Whipee! I'm so happy! :D



*remembers he's probably not to going to get it*




*sigh*

Sweet news. But now my hopes of seeing online versions of : PD, Mario Kart and Donky Kong Racing at E3 have been shatered.


:(

Whooooooooooo!

*runs around in circles*

As much as I like the news, even though it was expected a week ago with the announcement. It would be cooler for them to have announced it E3, as well as feature some games. I guess they have a bigger announcement.

Well IGN says that there will be announcements and discussions at E3 pretaining to Nintendo's online plans....so which one is right?? We'll find out soon enough.

*suspenseful music plays*

;)

I tought Nintendo would never anounce them. So I'm happy that they did. I tought this day would never come.:)

*awaits E3 for the unveiling of Pokémon Online*

...

*decides it doesn't matter whether it's online or not, as long as some Pokémon appears at E3, he's a satisfied customer*

:D

When are PS2 and XB gonna have online play?

Oh yeah, great news!

If PS2 doesn't have online play now, they should very soon.

Well, PS2's first online game is already out... Tony Hawk 3 :D it's kinda like NGC's PSO... PSO will be like the first and only online game out at the time the modem things are released, and it will probably stay that way for awhile... The only difference is PSO is like all online and Sony didn't release their official modem, you have to use a normal USB one :D

But the full PS2 online stuff should be out I think around fall this year... with more than just 1 game... I think :unsure:

I'm pretty sure Sony started up their broadband service stuff in Japan like yesterday or the day before or... sometime not too long ago or something :p

Well, I don't have a PS2 [yet], so I wasn't going to say for sure if it was out yet.. but it's only one game anyways.. :unsure:

Uhhh...The PS2 is officially going online in August, with a bunch of games...SOCOM: US Navy SEALS, Twisted Metal Black: Online, Frequency: Online...and I'm sure there's more...those are just the ones off the top of my head...then there's NFL2K3, NBA2K3 and NHL2K3 online in the fall...and Final Fantasy XI...and then Everquest...and Hot Shots Golf Online...
