Quote:

interviewer: are the rumors true about voice chat on your wii console?
Satoru Iwata: yes and no. see last year, when we launched pokemon daimond and pearl, we thought about making the ds lite mic, nintendo mic. But, in all the other countries, they just recieved theyre wii's in whole, and we thought we could launch a wii ome later, which will happen in japan in april and us sometime this summer.
interviewer: will they be able to talk live on the games that came out before that?
No, i deeply apologize about this. due to the issues of lawsuits and other things, this will not happen. We made a mistake about choosing to make the different mics for the two systems.
interviewer:how will the voicechat work?
Satoru Iwata: You will plug one part into the usb on the back of the wii, then you put the other part in the ear. all online games will be able to voicechat.
interviewer: Thank you for your time.

True but it seems like a quick/cheep translation of a japaneese magazine. Really would need someone to pick it up to know for sure.

KTIGZ · 02-25-2008, 07:07 PM

hopefully, it comes out soon .

jimbo · 02-25-2008, 07:24 PM

CantGetAWii · 02-25-2008, 07:36 PM

Well its bound to happen, I mean everyone wants it.
Glad to finally hear something about it.

Disturbed1 · 02-25-2008, 08:21 PM

words misspelled are in bold and underlined, and there is a bunch of words that should be capitalized

let me say this again.......... THIS IS NOT FROM A SITE.

FROM A MAGAZINE! so THAT DOWSNT MEAN ANYTHING. WHY ASRE People acting like asses whenever they see something spelled wrong? JERKS

Disturbed1 · 02-26-2008, 10:53 PM

Ya because the internet is 100% right all the time

get real!

Just look how blown outta whack the Pay 2 Play has become by people interpreting what a Nintendo rep said, instead of taking it exactly how it was said.

Granted this might not be the perfect source, But it came outta the mouth of someone that acctually WORKS at Nintendo, not just someone filling out a article on a website based one what they heard that someone heard someone said. ha ha

It might be a poor translation of what a Nintendo rep said in Japan, but atleast thats better than a poor interpretation of what the rep said. It's straight forward and to the point, spelling errors or not, Voice chat is on the way based on what a published magazine in Japan got from an interview with a Nintendo rep. Thats worth more than any of the 2 bit sites on the internet to me.
