When the official Nintendo Wii site was first discovered way back in the a.m., it apparently sported both WiFi and Virtual Console links, but someone at team Nintendo offloaded them from the Interweb before too many people got actual new information out of the site.

Reader Seanspace got a quick look and said the site promises that Nintendo's horrid Friend Code system will be making a big appearance on the Wii.

From the site:

"Nintendo has your online safety in mind. Thanks to our unique Friend Code system, you can control whom you play with online. Playing online is a great way to connect and reconnect people you want to play games with!"

Say it ain't so!
