I am really anxious to see how well it is done. But it will come in due time. The first game to have it will be Pokemon Battle Revolution, and it will be released at the end of June. Then, we will start to see online games popping up all over the place.
Figured I would do this because there are soo many threads of people asking about it. If anyone has any Information to add, or sees any information that is wrong, let me know and I will update it. Maybe this can be stickied?
Q: Do you have to pay anything for online gameplay? A: No. Online gameplay is completely free.
Q: What do I need in order to be able to play online? A: The only thing you will need to be able to play online is an active internet connection in your household, and one of two items. You either need: 1. A Nintendo Wi-Fi adaptor (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nintendo_Wi-Fi_USB_Connector) or 2. A Wireless Modem/Router (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_modem)
Q: Will the Wii's online gameplay require friendcodes? A: Yes. Nintendo has confirmed that in order to play against someone online, you must have the person you are playing against in your address book, and they must have you in theirs. Their reason for this is because they want it to be safe for all ages and help avoid child predators.
Q: Will (random game) have online gameplay/multiplayer? A: The easiest answer to this question is, is the release date of (random game) after Pokemon: Battle Revolution? Reggie from Nintendo has confirmed that Pokemon: Battle Revolution will be the first game released with online compatibility. If your game in question has a release date set before Pokemon Revolution, then it definently will not have online compatibility. If the release date is set to after Pokemon, then there is a possibility, but it probably hasn't been confirmed yet. I will update this thread with any games confirmed to have online compatibility.
Q: What games are confirmed to have online compatibility? A: The games that have been confirmed so far to have online compatibility are: Pokemon: Battle Revolution Super Smash Bros. Brawl Mario Strikers: Charged Battalion Wars 2
