This paragraph right here states it well
Another thing I’ve noted is that the article stated that allegedly, you don’t have the option to use the GamePad’s in-built microphone while gaming – and judging from the inconveniences I just stated above, it’d seem that this option is only in our best interests while playing games online. Keep in mind though that, outside of gaming, there’d be a lot less random buttons being clicked and pressed and mashed and mushed all over, which means there’d be less of a likelihood for noise. Seeing as things like voice-chat are still going to be prioritised for use outside of gaming for social applications like Miiverse, it just might be that we could be able to ditch headsets outside of gaming without the fear of too much excessive noise being generated while using the GamePad’s microphone – and as I said before, seeing as the mandatory use of a headset was only stated for voice-chat during gaming alone and video-chat with the GamePad has been demonstrated without the use of a headset completely, it seems that this is more than likely to be the case.
