TalkBack / Network Play in Pikmin 2?

Here's something worth mentioning. In the third picture (the one with a close up of both guys) it appears as if the red Pikmin are following Olimar and the blue ones are following the other guy. That makes perfect sense if the theory about two different human players is true. But the HUD data shows Olimar's face and shows a BLUE Pikmin. If only the red ones are following him (which from the pic it looks like that's the case) and both characters are played by different human players then the Pikmin in Olimar's HUD would be red. I'm not sure what that means but it's worth noting.
As for any networking capabilities I really hope the game is online. LAN support is cool but is considerably more inconvenient for me than online play. I only have one Gamecube so I can't play LAN with my brother. But I could very easily play online with some of my friends. Pikmin isn't the type of game that I want to wait until people are over to play and hook up an extra TV for. Online support would make it much more enjoyable and convenient.
