Well, it is Nintendo after all ain't it.... They were supposed to be putting online capabilities on the Gamecube, but for as long as I owned one, I never heard anything about when it's gonna go online. I might be wrong so if I am, let me know!!!

Only people who do not know the videogame business would advocate the release of next-generation machines when people are not interested in cutting-edge technologies."

Now thats comedy :D

There was a modem attachment released of the GC. I don't think many made it out of Japan and there was no real support for it anyway.

I think they've began to learn from their mistakes. The online ability of the DS is pretty strong and what they've planned for the Revolution is also pretty good. Doubt it will be as strong as Xbox live.

It came out here in the US, but only in very limited release. I have only seen 2 in my life and they were both at a Game Stop, one near my house, the other pretty far away. It was for Phantasy Star Online and the Mario Kart Double Dash also used it for network play, but there was a program that you could use to play Double Dash online. I never bought it when I saw it because it was $40 and I didn't want to play Phantasty Star Online.

It was a useless attachment like the hard drive on PS2.
