Needlessly complicated and really unnecessary.
Seriously... who cares.

Yeah, it's possible, but unrealistic. I've only played online once anyways...

Yeah, it is very complicated and pretty hard to do. It's one thing to have a server and all, but you need to trick the game into contacting that server.
I'm not 100% sure, but my understanding is that DS and Wii homebrew doesn't run within any sort of operating system like PC programs do. You'd be hard-pressed to run a homebrew app and Brawl at the same time. You can use homebrew to boot the game, and to mod it, but to get the game to contact the server you'd have to make a change to the game's code, not a separate app that can be controlled easily...

The SD loader constantly runs along with SSBB and makes it search the SD card for textures before the DVD. Like you, I'm not 100% sure, but the fact that you can remove the SD card, change textures, and the fact that you dont have to tell the Loader what texture files to use, tells me that it's constantly running in the background. And my idea wouldn't require tricking the game into doing anything. It would only have to check the game for the opponent's wii ID.

The SD loader reroutes the DVD reading function to the SD loading function. It only works because Brawl already had SD reading abilitys. |

Close enough, point made... It's probably not going to happen anytime soon if at all.

Well, can you guys just make the homebrew app? The server idea's awesome!
Simple. put three pics to a texture to show what it really looks like
Make a univeral filename for the texture (example: Falcondorf)
Give it the Wii-pointer GUI as you have planned
Make a server (maybe a website like cultnet or xtreemhost like Kitty Corp's hosted by, or even Unleaded MUGEN!)
It won't be too hard (for you guys, this depth of computer and wii crap is beyond me)
...and what's with all my "(words)"?
