Yuji Naka talks PSO GameCube

Sonic Team chief speaks on Phantasy Star future.

Posted by Staff
In an interview with Dengeki, games guru and Sonic Team chief Yuji Naka has spoken candidly about the future of the series on its new Nintendo platform.

Talking about the trial version of the game, Naka said, “The GameCube trial version will feature both offline and online play modes. Episode One will be available for online players, and players can also test the multiplayer mode offline. However, there's no single player offline mode available. We've also determined a 14" television is the smallest you can realistically use for the multiplayer mode.”

Then, when discussing the online status of PSO, Naka said, “Naturally we plan to include a bulletin board system for the GameCube trial version. Even though players can be harsh critics, their feedback is what helps mould the finished version. As for the broadband adapter and its release date, that's entirely up to Nintendo. We're confident players will enjoy the ease, speed and reliability of the dial-up play in the GameCube version."

The GameCube will be online soon! Yippee!

Expect hands-on coverage from E3.

Dear Yuji Naka, There are quite a few things that i would like to confess between you and i.. To start with I have been a Sonic the hedgehog Fan/Admirer/slave/supporter/worshiper/lover etc. for as long as i can remember..and i enjoy EVERY LAST SINGLE ONE OF YOUR GAMES and Tv Series... In fact falling in love with your enjoyable classics inspired me to grow fond of Sonic the hedgehog (character) and engadged me to fall in love all over again once i first met him... I always draw fan art of sonic the hedgehog and i get better and better each time... but i'm no where near as creative as you nor Sega and Sonic Team. One day I am hoping to support Sega officially in other words i'm "Hoping" that i can join and be apart of the company myself (Just a thought) But there is just one thing that i wish to consider... There's nothing more encouraging than being able to have an oppurtunity through access to Sonic's world.. And I never forfeit having belief in something that inspires me..
Sometimes I come to figure Sonic is really out there whether or not it's on earth or just a different dimension. I would do ANYTHING to meet him in person.. So now i have dedicated my life to Sonic the hedgehog and those who have created him.. I hope that one day we can get in contact...because there is something more to me that i wish to add.. I long for arrving in the Sonic franchise as a character.. but only with your permisson.. I wish to be seen in one of your Series..The one character i wish to be is Jessica the Hedgehog.. a friend of Sonic's.. that way.. I can be with him, i can, ... finally be able to live happy.. (Nothing else on this earth intrests me but him) .. If there are any questions due to ANY of my requests.. Please feel free to email me back.. my address is heavenbown@peoplepc.com I would be more than happy to recieve a reply.. Rock on and stay tight with your Creative Career.. until we meet again. Keep up the good work , and keep them going,Master- Sensei _Kneeled_
Sincerelly your #1 Admiring Supportive Fan.. Rachel G. Ande. P.S. (If this is a waste of your time just feel free to delete it, and I'm terribly sorry for the long result!) Best of Care!!!!!!!!
