Nintendo Gaming / RE:N5 Nintendo's trojan horse for LAN gaming
« on: January 10, 2004, 02:18:13 PM »
Really interesting read fella's , on the LAN issue, I've long wondered how difficult it really is to game on 2 or more TV's with only one console??? I admit I'm not that informed on the more tech aspect of these things but think about it, cable and satelite is viewable on multiple TV's, my point is, you really don't need 2 consoles, just harness the technology on splitting the Visual signals from the console (as with your average sky digital set top box) and then fellas we could be talking about some proper trojan horse stuff. I'm a great N fan and I'm rooting for them to make a strong comeback on the next gen and I strongly believe that if this technology could come bundled (coupled with all the other prerequisites of course) it would really give them the edge on the LAN front at least and I'd also Imagine that would prove a big hit with public video gaming (arcade centers and all)
Also, it's a bit likely N will join the dvd band wagon on this one, they've already confirmed they'll be adding a HDD and apart from the online abilities of a console being second to the gaming, I feel multi media (audio & video dvd) comes in a close third (xbox sales have proved that portability - size that is, is not a question in the face of power and ability)
Hey! I may be off by a mile but I'd really like to hear what someone else thinks k?
cheers
