Re: Nintendo Wii discussion - post your friend codes
Copied from G4TV.com
Nintendo has filed an "Invitation System for on-line video games" No. 20070123353 patent that states the following:
"…users may be playing a game and be invited to play another different game (without rebooting the machine etc)…By providing, among other things, an invitation server that keeps track of accepted invitations, users can be conveniently and, if desired, automatically joined to a game being played by another user, even if a game system is turned off and then back on. "
The patent was filed last year and recently published, could this have something to do with the Wii and the future of online games? Will we be able to invite friends to play online games easily using our Mii's? Or is this all just nonsense? You be the judge.
