If you have Wii Speak, then yes, you talk to anyone on there. If you wan't to buy a good online game for Wii though, I'd wait for the Conduit, which is going to be released sometime in June.
Unfortunately online communication is very slim at the moment. But I would still recommend the Wii. Plus, The Conduit is going to use Wii Speak for online.
Before making a decision to buy a Wii, you should DEFINITELY go to the "Recommended Games" thread and see if you're really interested in those kind of games. I've heard countless stories about people who bought a Wii and ended up not liking the games. Wii doesn't have many fps's, but has a good range of puzzlers, platformers, and some adventure games.
If you're looking for good online communication in your games- you are not going to like the Wii right now- as online communication ranges from incredibly slim to completely non-existent right now.
This may start changing with Wii Speak though, as long as more games start supporting it. Other than Animal Crossing however- the only other game that I know of which will support Wii Speak is The Conduit.
voice chat is overrated. Most of the time, u get little kids just spamming crap. It works well in a game that you want to cordnate attacks/co-op games. but in a DM game, there really is no point. Aside from that, i would get a Wii. x360 has good games and everything, but the Wii has a better all around selection. you get good M-games, as well as games like SMG and Zelda. Not to mention cool motion controls. As long as you dont play games for graphics, the Wii is the way to go.
