Last night's Nintendo press event in Japan reunited us with a few familiar faceshttp://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3170309, but there was also a great deal of original software on display -- the new Wii Speak Channel, for instance. Utilizing the Wii Speak microphone peripheral that comes with Animal Crossing: City Folk, this new Wii application allows online voice communication between up to four Wii consoles. Participants will be represented by their Mii avatars while conversing, and they'll also have the ability to send voice-captioned photos and messages to their friends' Wiis.

A code to download the Wii Speak Channel will be included with the device itself, though Nintendo hasn't specified whether that applies to both the individually-packaged Wii Speak and the Animal Crossing bundle. With a retail price of 70 bucks, one would certainly hope so.
