As if there isn't enough Nintendo news right now, Nintendo of Europe has slipped up and posted the following on their site: "...and the lure of the online mode, Mario Tennis is set to soar onto Nintendo GameCube in 2005." Source: NOE's Mario Tennis Preview So, it looks like the Big N will be entering the online gaming world sometime next year. I think this is great news. First the DS has Wi-Fi and then GameCube is going online... It can't get much better than this! I hope Nintendo sticks with its original plan of free online gaming (Mr. Iwata once stated that online gaming should be free). What do you guys think of this? |

It's cool... but I don't like Tennis of any sort.  I can't wait to get the DS.. Wi-Fi + Future Pokemon Games = *drools* I would finally be able to trade and battle with other Pokemon trainers (which they will more and likely let you do)... can't do that here... no-one likes Pokemon... and I literally have no friends except my best friend (and that was basically proven yesterday)... but he's not into Pokemon.. just other Nintendo games... |

Man, I've been waiting for Mario Tennis GCN for ages. It was one of my favorite games on the N64. Online would be awesome. It'd hafta be free, though, cause I doubt I could shell out $10 a month to play it.

A typo? That's a pretty big typo. I wonder if NOE was talking about the LAN mode... |

I think several games would be awesome online.
SSB, F-Zero, and Mario Kart are the games I would get right away if they were online.

Well, Nintendo has given clues that Online is going GCN! (Ex. AOL signing with Nintendo). It turns out, maybe not.
Image a 16 player Zelda deathmatch! Blades Bleeding! Arrows Flying! Yea!
