Nintendo's Camp Hyrule is an online virtual "summer camp" of sorts. For the 2000 that signed up this year, there will be all kinds of Nintendo related fun going on. Campers are put into virtual cabins with each other and can chat it up about anything they like, though the discussion will most certainly revolve around Nintendo.

There are also camps with Nintendo's game pros. Daily events will include shows, games, art activities and other such things. And for one lucky camper, a shiny new GameCube awaits as a prize for something. Nintendo hasn't revealed yet what.

Much of this year's camp will revolve around new and upcoming Nintendo Products, like the Game Boy Advance and GameCube.
