Well it's just the wars series now, because Famicom hasn't been in the name for a long time.
This is hardly an RTS, it's basically just JFG meets Pikmin, which honestly has been done before in lots of other games as of late. On the other hand, if there's an upcoming Advance Wars (meaning GBA) game that actually IS an RTS, that's different. Honestly, it would kinda have to be there, because that's about the only way to get screens the other players can't see. Remember how much Starcraft 64 sucked simply because you couldn't use a single bit of strategy that the other person couldn't see? Same thing here. If they made it for Gamecube, it would have to allow for system link at the very least.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
