The U.S. arm of video game maker Nintendo Co. Ltd. said on Monday it will introduce an online element for its GameCube console this fall, making it the last of the three major video game hardware makers to enter that still-developing market.
Nintendo said it will offer dial-up and high-speed Internet adapters for the GameCube in the fall at a suggested retail price of $34.95. The first game to be available for online play will be Sega Corp.'s "Phantasy Star Online." Sega said Monday the game is expected to come out this fall. Nintendo is considering a number of online projects and working with third-party publishers to aid them in developing Internet games. The company also said it will not require royalties from publishers who collect revenue from online play with the GameCube. |
