So the GCN and PS2 versions won't link up with each other? I've said I understand why XBox is left out, with it's proprietary MS owned online service, but why not link up the other two systems? All they need to do is make sure the data sent out online is exactly the same on both. The fact that the data inside the game will be different in each version makes no different if the online data is the same format for both.
Eh, but the thing is, that still only gets two online games for GCN. Very few people even know the GCN has an online adapter (it would help if Nintendo sold it in more places than their online store) or any online games. Well, hopefully 3rd parties will take up Nintendo's slack and put a lot more online games out there. However, that still doesn't help the fact that Nintendo isn't even selling that adapter outside their online store.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
