Metroid Chat: The new Metroid Prime Hunters game for Nintendo DS will give gamers the ability to chat directly with one another before and after matches played via Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. Players in North America simply click the chat icon and say what they have to say. The microphone of the Nintendo DS picks up voice communication and transmits it to the people on their friend list. Players can use the chat function before a match to agree on settings or after a battle to relive their glories. This Teen-rated first-person adventure arrives March 20 and promises to open a dramatically fun new facet of gaming to Nintendo fans.

This is a lot more than I expected from the DS.

Whoops, posted this in the other thread with this, but I'll say it again:

They really should have done voice chat for friends only from the start.

I'm not big on the talking thing. I just wish nintendo made WiFi easier rather than giving out new friend codes for every single game. Metroid I will buy though.
