Cute, 2D side-scrolling MMORPG MapleStory now bubbles up over three million registered users in the U.S. alone. Probably the fastest growing MMO games to date, MapleStory is popular for its free-to-play, microtransaction business model, allowing users to freely play and exchange real currency for unique in-game items to personalize their Maple alter-egos.

The current registered user base of America will now add to the almost 60 million registered user base all over the world, including homeland Korea, Europe and South East Asia. Banking on their unique approach to business while attracting more users to try out their games without any limitations, John H. Chi, CEO of Nexon America claimed, "Nexon is going to change not only the way people game, but socialize!"

Soon entering Nexon America's list of available MMOs is Audition, another free-to-play game with a similar business model set in a virtual club of dancers. Similar in the rhythmic gameplay of O2Jam and DDR, Audition will also sport free-for-all, head to head and team battle modes to add to play variety.

Nexon Game Cards will also have another printing at Target cards nationwide in the U.S. These game cards shall serve as player's tickets to purchasing items from the in-game shops in Audition and MapleStory. They will be coming in varieties of US$ 10 and US$ 25.
