According to this article, Nintendo filed a patent for "Invitation System for Online Video Games" last year which has just been recently publicly published. Although the specifics of the implementation are not elaborated, it is essentially similar to what Xbox Live can do. Through the system users will be able to send invitations to other offline or online users to play certain games and allow them to join automatically. This bodes well for the future of Wii online gaming, although it is still questionable whether the Wii is able to implement such a system.
