Honestly I bought WiiSpeak day one hoping Nintendo and third parties would support it like Live does with headsets. I really loved the idea of community chat and couldn't wait to use it in Animal Crossing. I loved using WiiSpeak in Animal Crossing so much easier then typing everything. But as you said Nintendo just left it out to dry, Nintendo didn't do anything to get third parties to support it and other then HighVoltage has any third party actually utalized it in any way worth while? No they haven't where's WiiSpeak in ModernWarFare:Reflex. I also thought that WiiSpeak would appear on future Mario titles like MarioParty9 etc...etc... but in all Nintendo isn't giving it much support.
But in the end I like their support for the Balance Board, WiiFitPlus and a couple third party titles have rushed to support it. I would love to see Nintendo releasing some more games for it. Then you have MotionPlus which is actually going to appear in the next Zelda, so you never know maybe Nintendo will actually support the vitality sensor though I fear it will go the way of WiiSpeak!
