CAGiversary!
I was thinking about Nintendo's next system and the idea of wireless game sharing came to mind. If the DS can do it... why wouldn't the Revolution be able to?
I don't know if its technologically feasible... but the way I see it it can work like this:
Your Revolution is connected to the Internet via WiFi, and you've put you zipcode into it... the Revolution knows where it is. This way, the Revolution can sense other consoles in the immediate area (maybe 10, 20 miles... to keep down latency) and if they are playing a game (Say... Smash Bros Rev.) you can download a limited version of the game to play against them... or download a demo from them.
Is it possible? It'd be like DS gaming sharing on a larger level.
