    Where can I find a list of games that are broadband compatible.

    IE Can use on-line rather than via a link...if they can? :confused:

    Mario Kart I am sure can be somehow

    Also wasn`t Phantasy Star On Line compatible?

    These are the ones I know of:

    Online:
    Phantasy Star Online Episodes I & II
    Phantasy Star Online Episodes I & II Plus
    Phantasy Star Online Episode III
    Homeland (I think that's the name; it's not out yet, and you can order it only from the official website).

    LAN:
    1080: Avalanche
    Kirby's Air Ride
    Mario Kart: Double Dash

    You can tunnel the LAN games with homebrewed software such as Warp Pipe so you can play them online.

    You can play LAN games online through Xlink Kai and/or Wipe-something software.

    Yeah, that's Warppipe.

    Maybe I think too much about playing WIPEOUT Pure on my PSP :D

    You lucky sod! Do you like the game? I really liked Wipeout 2097 but subsequent releases were less fun, imho.

    Wipeout Pure has been getting rave reviews everywhere.

    It's basically XL/2097 reborn.

    I play MarioKart DD Online via warp pipe....but cant at the moment thanks to the Uni firewall (I live on campus in student accomodation).

    In about a month I should have new accomodation sorted though and a cable line in my flat...so I can play then :D

    Makes you wonder why Nintendo spent development time, effort and cash developing and manufacturing the BBA and modem. The only company that use the damn thing are Sega for PSO. Crazy.

    They did sign an contract with Gamespy in 2001 for game hosting...

    Maybe they anticipated more online support, for which they would not have to do a thing? ;)

    Surely Nintendo can't expect 3rd partys to make the effort when they don't themselves.

    I mean there's loads of Nintendo's own GC games that should be online multiplayer:
    Mario Party, Mario Kart, Waverace (should have been online from launch day), 1080*, etc..

    Maybe if Nintendo had made the effort there'd be online sports, 1st person deathmatch etc.
