Well that title should send a few people off.....
This is what I am thinking. On the bottom of the cube we have 3 extensions. With the release of the GB Player Nintendo have basically said there will be no stupid 64DD type addon. But we have a port free. With all the recent speculation of Nintendo and local network esque gaming I figure its gonna happen like this.
The Serial Port 2, will be the LAN adapter, but in true nintendo style it won't be CAT5 (standard) it'll be Nintendo cabling in a similar setup to the GameBoy, even using the GBA cable hub setup, but I doubt it. The reason it won't be standard is because if it was, then folk could use the BBA, but then some folk don't have the BBA, or they use the 56k Modem. So nintendo are thinking, hmm bit more licencing, crazy hardware, baddabing, LAN Nintendo style. The slot is a fine size for a LAN type hardware, and like I say the GB Player makes it impossible to use for anything else.
The general concensus I've been reading is Nintendo are thinking about Lanning up Mario Kart, or Pikmin 2, or even Fzero and StarFox, its the kinda thing Nintendo keep locked up till the last minute.
Possible?
