The latest issue of ONM (Official Nintendo Magazine) included an interview with Mike Inglehart of Next Level games, in which he discussed the online functionality of the upcoming Wii title; Mario Strikers Charged.

GoNintendo have managed to get their hands on a direct transcript of the important details, which you can see below:

ONM: Mario Strikers Charged is the first WiFi game for the Wii in the UK. Has that put pressure on you to get it right?

Inglehart: Our main goal is to ensure a quality gameplay experience so we’ve had to make a lot of design choices that all us to deliver that. We’ve never had to compromise anything that’s limited our WiFi feature set; this game is about multiplayer and that’s been our focus from the beginning.

ONM: Will we be able to play people from all over the world or are we limited to specific regions?

Inglehart: WiFi in Mario Strikers Charged is region specific so we can ensure a quality gameplay experience. The game is very twitch based and reactive, so it’s important for us to keep lag to a minimum.
