Nintendo says Wii voice chat is a possibilityDVDBack23 @ Dec 16, 2007 23:34 | 4 comments
Speaking during a conference call, Fils-Aime confided that there id nothing technically stopping voice chat in online play on the Wii and it is only a matter of Nintendo putting the money aside to support it. "...what it comes down to is finalizing the peripheral," he added. "I would not be surprised to see that capability come to this system."
Currently the Microsoft's Xbox 360 employs voice chat and even comes bundled with a headset that even allows "sending delayed messages" in addition to regular in-game chat.
Film-Aime did however, shut down any speculation that the Wii's Virtual Console could be adding online multiplayer. "We do not anticipate making online gameplay for Virtual Console games," he concluded.
