Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Odds that WiiSpeak Channel will be able to run in the background?

thekitchensink on 21 October 2008

I'm wondering if you think that, when you get the WiiSpeak channel, it'll be able to run in the background during games.  This would be an effective, if crude, way to enable voice-chat in earlier games without having to patch each one.

What are your thoughts?



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

I don't think it'll ever happen. It will probably be just a standalone "channel" running on its own.

takkxyz, you missed one

Zilch.. unless the game is built to support it within the context of the game, you won't have it running as a background app

I doubt it. It's sad though, Mario Kart would be even better with voice chat (only with friends, though).
