        I was thinking of writing a 2-player toned down secret of mana 
type game, or a 2-player battle type game. I am wondering how fast the 
linkport is...and if it would be able to support the constant flow of 
data needed for a game like this (concerning the other players coords 
and sprites, the scrolling of the map, etc...). I think I would make 
the map not scroll, butbe vividly designed otherwise...and perhaps give 
the 1st player the ability to change screens, so there's no contest 
there...oh well, just a thought...those with experience, how plausible 
is this?
