Online platformers are a ridiculous idea, for there is almost no relevant interaction, I wouldn't even bother if there was another player in the stage, except I feel like killing him. Local multiplayer is awesome though, as you can share the joys and woes of the other player. You should try it sometime.

I personally agree on number 2 though. But I'd argue there's a technical problem for nintendo here. There's no way they'd take so long more than the competition when they are actually making better online games like Smash, if they wanted to do it. My bet is on they don't want parents to hear angry children screaming at their own through the TV. And that's all there is to voice chatting on any console, angry children. It's not much of a loss anyway,
