In other words it won't turn on until in a match against someone you are friends with.
While I understand the "need" for communication in some things like that.... I think it is a good thing you can only talk with friends. Don't get me wrong, I would love if the rest of Nintendo's online talk was more like the other two.... ie a bit more existant first of all, then I think I would prefer headsets to the TV thing (though I hear it works very well anyway) but while it can be good to talk to randomers in game, Nintendo would recieve a shit-load of backlash if a parent came into the room and there were a load of young teens swearing at their son. Basically just because they are Nintendo instead of Sony/MS.
