I think the simplest way to put it is that Nintendo wants controversy control.  While some games thrive on it, Nintendo probably believes they would be hurt by it.  Voice chat is a way to drive controversy to a Nintendo system.  Other systems, you expect to hear all kinds of things but it wont really harm them.

While I do think a lot of Wii U sales will be those who are older and are "Ninty faithful," I know for sure there are parents buying the Wii U was well.  I was even there at a Wal-Mart when I heard a parent talking about buying one for their child, who is too young to have a job or enough money to buy one themselves.  They definitely exist, and probably in higher numbers than you expect.  I do not think they are the majority, but do make up a noticeable share.

If we want to talk about how I feel as a customer, I would prefer Nintendo go for the "mature" and take a risk, but I also wouldn't want to see them go out of business.

With controversy people will at least be talking about the thing instead of this indifference theyve been getting since pratically the WIi U release from the general public, but thats just me. I could be wrong.

Oh there are parents, but thats my point there really isnt that much parents to really be concerned and worry about pissing off. The system isnt even at 10 mil. so lets say so far 4mil are parents, thats not a lot in the grand scheme of things. It seems they are putting a minority needs before the needs of the majority, but i could be wrong. 

IMHO i dont think adding VC will make them go out of buisness, but you know what will? Refusing to keep up with standards, if it wasnt for 3ds Ninty would be in a lot of trouble.
