Well, not for the cube, but for the Revolution and DS. Even better news as it is FREE, and hopefully have a better interface than Sony. DS will have some odd games like NintenDogs, Electroplankton and Animal Crossing (will be online), while cube owners can look forward to the new Zelda, and boy does that look sexay!

glad to hear they are finaly going online but some how i doubt they will pull it off
the GC was supposed to have alot of online games but nope didnt happen
Only for two games, and those were both PSO games. Both required a monthly fee I believe.
Say, do you think that with that wireless router that's supposed to be in the DS, that if you are in a hotspot, and someone is close enough to access you but not be in the hotspot, that you could provide internet to him?
Would that work?
I hope ninty fufils it's new online-view in <b>all</b> countries... I'm sick and tired of having perfectly good netgames denied to me just because I live outside of the US/Japan ><
"hey we've got this resident evil online game... think the europeans would want this with the online parts still in? naaaahhhh... Lets remove them from most other games on the PS2 while we're at it if we even bother giving them a version of it at all" ~fume~
There are places outside of america? Mah pa shown me a map once, he done. When I done lookit the map, I saw that outside o' the border it t'was jus the 7 seas and it said "HERE BE DRAGONS". Mayhap I shud ask pa again.
If you had a wireless router, you could always connect using that. Probably
I always knew Ninty would do this sometime.
As long as they pull it off, i'm sure as hell not complaining
Online.
With the DS.
OMG I MUST HAVE THISS DEVICE!!

Thing is, most of the other generals aren't that good....
I mean, take Sami, Frikkin useless usually.
What? The thinly disguised Nuclear Bomb <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
My beef is that he's way too good for his cost. His infantry is better than Sami's, his tanks are better than Max's, his artillery is only beaten by Grit, etc. etc. His high defensive power, by contrast, softens specialist COs' advantages, and his awesome troops can make the most of his opponent's weaknesses.
The only flipside is that CO powers which knock off 2hp really hurt him.
I'd go sammi more often but the extra troop power is hard to measure in usefulness... I've had battles where it's a waste of space and ones where it's won me back from the brink of defeat (I fended off a mass attack that destroyed all my stuff by mass producing troops and killing the tanks off with numbers... in the end I routed them and reclaimed my bit of the map. Heck how I loved those multiplayer games ^^ ).
I can see Sami, Colin etc. being much better when grades don't matter, though. They both rely on mass troops to be effective.
We played a lot of 3 and 4 players which while fun could take a while.
