Exactly.
We all know that Metroid Prime 3 is going to be the definitive First Person Experience using the Wiimote. Nintendo is taking extra, EXTRA time proving this control method works flawlessly with FPS. Why wouldn't you want to bring that experience online?
Voice Chat could be implemented in several different ways. The easiest is just to pack in a Blue Tooth headset. (Hey there was a reason Nintendo limited the system to only four controllers. The Extra Blue Tooth could be used for other asscessories. Or wired headset that connects to the Wiimote and still has another out to connect the nunchuk to the Wiimote could be created.
Now, with Wifi, I don't believe we will be having great 16-24 epic multiplayer battles. But Nintendo could get 8-10 players going, and that would be a pretty strong multiplayer experience.
Finally, I would love to see the game have a robust multiplayer experience. You could have different classes of fighters.
Bounty Hunter class characters would be very specialized and have only the unique weapons and abilities they have.
Space Pirates and Space Marines would be like normal online players, can pick up different weapons and use vehicles and basically be more traditional characters for online play.
It would be brilliant and fun.
