    Nintedo recently brough out their first LAN enabled Game Kirby Air Ride. In an effort to make the GC internet playble a group of developers have came up with a program called Warp Pipe that enable LAN GC to play over the internet. For more information click the link at the bottom of my post.

    They did the samething with Halo on the Xbox before live. But anyway, I'm really interested testing the Mario Kart Double Dash!! with the warp pipe.

    Playing Mario Kart with 16 players, it's a Mario Kart fan dream come true :D

    But anyway you need a very fast internet connection work, I have one at school the problem is finding a tv :(

    Nice I have a 320 kbps connection at home, which is ok.

    At school I have a 100Mbps connection ;)

    I have a friend who has a 1.5 Mbps downstream connection I guess I could test it with him.

    The thing wondering me is, what happens when a PAL player joins a NTSC player. Will the game actually works?

    That's the real thing bugging me about it...

    Man, by the time RS4 comes out, there d*mn well better be some fully supported online internet play on whatever nintendo platform the game ends up on. Not just some third party pirated hack.

    It's perfectly legal. So it's not pirated or hacked. I think it's better then anything Nintendo could make because they would make you pay for it. This is a 100% free service, you can't beat that ;)

    The game should work just fine. The networking behind the scenes shouldn't even be handling any display. The networking should only be worried about passing the data between your machine and everyone elses. All the display processing should be done on your box. So it shouldn't matter if one person is playing on PAL and another is playing on NTSC.
