How to Talk to People on Wii

The Nintendo Wii allows users to access the Internet through a Wi-Fi broadband connection, which can be used to talk to friends via a Wii Speak microphone and the Wii Speak Channel. The Wii Speak microphone and Wii Speak Channel act as an online chatting tool for gamers to enjoy private or group conversations, and even converse while playing some Wii video games, such as "Animal Crossing: City Folk."
