    [​IMG] On the 7th of March, the Nintendo GameCube can be used for online gaming. At least, in the Benelux. Broadband and modems will be available then. But most people have their NGC connected to a TV. And internet is often used via their computer.
    Would people need to connect their TV to their computer? Or would they use an other seperated cable for their NGC? What do you think about the whole lot and do you think online gaming with such consoles will succeed?

    Note: Please don't start a NGC-vs.-XB-vs.-PS2-thread. You can mention them if you like, but I want information on these practical things (cables and tellies) and your opinion. Thanks.

    The biggest concern for me would be the distinct lack, at least at this point, of a keyboard for the GC. I've been playing PSO, offline only of course, but I can't imagine actually trying to carry on a chat conversation without a keyboard. :(
