No Individual Friend Codes For Wii

[Squall7]

I think what Wii rules is trying to say is that No longer will the Friendcodes be made up from games and console. Each console will have a single friendcode for every game played on it. For example:
Your Wii has the code - 816378 598455.
This code will be the same no matter what game you play on it.

I hope this clears it up.

This is just great news! I had but sold the original DS the day I bought it, so I never had to deal with friend codes and never wanted to. I sort of hope however, that we just use our Mii as a sort of gamer-tag like Xbox Live and then you just enter like a 4-button-press-password to play a game online like Xbox Live does as well. Random numbers are annoying to remember.

there will only be one friend code for all games, but how does that amke it so you can have lobbies? wont all the people ion the lobby have to have everyone elses friend code?

As you know your Wii has a number and you can give it a nickname. This number or nickname can be used for all online Wii games, it never changes no matter what Wii game. Unlike the DS where every individual game has a different friend code.

well u know how for every online ds game u have u have a friend code for that game and the only way to play online is to give someone else the friend code that came with the game. well for teh wii it is different b/c every copy of one wii game has one friend code and so that u wont have to get a friend code from somebody else. that is wat wii r tryin to say. so yes wii WILL have lobbies for online wii games in march so u can jus join a group of people to play against.

well, I could go into lobbies in the DS mARIO Kart and Star Fox, I didn't need any codes and stuff, the codes were for adding your friends only..so it was obvious that Nintendo would do the same lobby thing for the Wii

yes they r gonna release a headset for those who want to talk by voice and they r also gonna release a keyboard for those people who would rather type tho im all for the headset so i can continue to play while im communicating. still no answer tho to when nintendo will have these accessories released for use in online play.
