Despite the fact that the PlayStation 2 and Xbox are making serious inroads into breaking into the world of online console gaming, Nintendo has been rather hesitant about entering into the fray. There might, however, be plans being hatched that are not yet being made public, and a snippet of info out of Japan today points to that possibility. It seems that Nintendo has taken out a patent that includes mention of an MMORPG.
Exact details are thus far not available, but the company will surely divulge official details soon. Could this be a sign that Nintendo is going to start taking the shift to online console gaming seriously? Only time will tell.
