friend codes or not

[spartan117]

do u want to have friend codes for wii and do the same idea as what they did for the ds, or do u want to have a talk to anyone play with anyone and visit peoples towns if they make an animal crossing for the wii. i no i hate friend codes, i go online on both my ds and on xbox live, and i love that on xbox live i can trash talk with any1 not just people whos f riend codes i have.

Well if I understand correctly Friend codes will only be required for certain games (like Animal Crossing: Wild World). Other games you should be able to play normally unless you wanna play them again. And another thing is the Wii will only require one friend code. For example, if you enter your friends FC onto your Wii console, you will have them on your friends list and be able to play with them on any game they get, instead of entering seperate codes for every game they get! I kinda prefer the FC's on Animal Crossing...Because of Wiiconnect24, I wouldnt wanna wake up and all the Trees in my neighborhood are gone! haha

Wii WiFi to be Similar to DS
Posted May 11, 2006 at 08:14PM by Rushan S. Listed in: Interviews, News Tags:
Those holding out that Nintendo's online service for Wii would be similar to Xbox Live and not the DS' version of Nintendo WiFi Connection might want to start to worry. IGN had an interview in which they found out that the DS model is the one being considered for the Wii.

What is your plan for the Wi-Fi Connection and how might it compare to Xbox Live?

Takahashi Tezuka: Well, the Wii Wi-Fi Connection works the same as the Nintendo DS one. It's the three qualities that we emphasize. It's easy, safe and free.


Will it have a central interface a la Live that all games will interact with, or will it be different on a game-by-game basis?

Tezuka: It'll be just like the DS so the interface will depend on the software.


Will Wi-Fi Connection on Wii also use a Friends Code system?

Tezuka: Yes.


However, they will still need to have some type of interface so that you can access the Virtual Console. Also, different games might still have rooms to set up like you can with your friends in Metroid Prime Hunters. Hopefully Super Smash Bros. Brawl won't have a limited online service. I'd really like to see it flourish. I don't mind friend codes, but I'm really not a fan of randomly connecting to players with no central hub - even if it's exclusive to that one game.

yeah i wouldn't like connecting to someone that i can't see a pictures of them or something. what if the wii had a wifi history where it stores what members you've battled against and how many time you lost to them of won.
or when you start a game and you played against this member it flashes the results on you r screen for like 2 seconds...


That would be cool

Thats actually a pretty killer idea bro...And it would also be kool if this record showed how many times that player disconnects from matches to avoid losses on his record! Or even a world wide ranking system like MPH for the DS
HAHA
