Title-specific friend codes for Wii after all

Posted on Friday, 16 March 2007 by Anneleen, source: Nintendo-revolution
It looks like Nintendo chose to use for the Wii again title-specific friend codes to play online with friends. In other words, it won't be necessary to registrate every game seperately and having to give your own number to your buddies.

The news came from an interview with GameSpy:

GameSpy: GameSpy’s technology does allow for features that could span multiple games. With the Nintendo Wii, however, the multiplayer features are title-specific.

Falafelkid: But is that the case for all Wii online titles across the board?

GameSpy: Yes, that is the case for Wii titles.

Falafelkid: Just one last question to make absolutely sure I have got this right, please. If I have a friend roster in one game, that roster will not be available to me in any other game. I have to build up an entirely new list for each title, right?

GameSpy: The answer to your question is yes, for the Wii friend lists are game specific.

not as bad as u think. its more of a way to give u privacy. Since you can Wii-mail your freinds, it wont be a problem.
