So we will have our online gaming soon, and Nintendo will hold their heads in shame.

Yep. Shigeru Miyamoto has made fun of Sony and Microsoft countless times over trying to make online gaming popular. Miyamoto believes that consoles should be made for gaming, and that's it -- hence the absence of a DVD player on the Gamecube. Many people think this will be the downfall of Nintendo's next system. I sure as hell hope that the Gamecube 2 comes equipped with at least a working online gaming system if not a DVD player as well. I can see what Miyamoto is trying to show everyone, but it's simply not going to work against Sony and Microsoft and the same time.
