You should put the quote in quotes. I'm pretty sure High Voltage confirmed Friend codes along time ago but said they were looking for a work around. If rumors are true the game is coming out in June and still has time to change.
I think they already said that some time ago.. Anyway, there are a bunch of ways to make Friend Codes "more friendly".. Since they're doing matches with 16 people, friend codes are probably being used only to locate matches with your friends and enable WiiSpeak functions (Nintendo wouldn't want you talking to strangers).. if the guys at High Voltage are smart, they'll add to the game something like Jump Ultimate Stars has.. letting you save the friend codes of everyone that played with you.
I'd say I am excited, but I know better. If this turns out to be good, I will be mucho much happy. But odds are, this will be mediocre at best.
JUS doesn't let you Save Friend Codes of people you play on Random Wifi, it simply lets you save their decks. I think Pokemon Battle Revolution for the Wii let's you have your opponent's Friend Pass (Is this their FC?) after you play them on Random Wifi. Also 16 player Online sounds great but wouldn't this mean the stages would have to be Pretty big?
