i could be wrong but here is my 2 cents:
ive seen something like this related to upnp, i would venture to guess
your 2 friends have routers which support upnp and so far as i know
openbsd does not support upnp.
I would suggest either consulting the guitar hero manual or a tcpdump
for the required ports for this game and try a static pat translation
to your public ip.
upnp allows the wii to request certain ports from the nat device be
opened for it, in this case it sounds like you wii needs certain ports
open to allow the server to connect to it, normally upnp would take
care of it dynamically, but you dont have upnp, so you have to static
assign the pat.
UPnPd for OpenBSD..

Personally, I've yet to need anything like this.
I haven't tried it with a Wii yet, but I've used miniupnp for a year or
so now and it's worked great whenever I've needed upnp support on a pf
firewall. Make sure you follow the documentation and add the required
anchors to the appropriate places in your pf.conf or else you won't make
too much progress!
