Nintendo teams up with GameSpy again for multiplayer Wii
Filed under: Gaming
If you’ve participated in an online game with your Nintendo DS, you’ve already enjoyed the fruits of this partnership, since GameSpy powered Nintendo’s first major foray into online matches, but it looks like Nintendo and GameSpy are about to take things up a notch with the Wii. The pair have just announced that GameSpy middleware will power the multiplayer aspects of online Wii games, with current Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection features at first, but eventually friend rosters, matchmaking and ranking at last. It ain’t no PlayStation Home, but it looks like Nintendo is finally ready to start seriously chasing online gamers. Pokémon Battle Revolution will kick things off on June 25.
