Maybe Nintendo just doesn't want to be reminded of their once infamous freindcodes?

so far unfriendcode is my favorite. My username here is mostly just my first initial and my last name. It's boring to just use that I think.

my username was.....

friendcode


so what do I change it to now.... that is what I use for steam and xbox.  I feel like I need to start a new idenity. 


Change it to  "inappropriate"

Then it is inappropriate (because its called that way) but you can still use it. Then you are probably the only person whose username is inappropriate that does not have to change it xD

My guess is that they don't want any usernames that are confusing because it is, well confusing.

Friendcode is super similar to the 3ds friend code so I see why they deem it 'inappropriate'

oh and I get that part of it, but I've had it since launch... you know back when there were even less WiiU owners, so it should have been caugt then.  Not 2 and a half years later.

Yeah, I do find it strange why they left it for so long..

Maybe they didn't bother at the time since it's in the grey zone of 'inappropriate' names so they just left it, until now, because there are more Wii U owners

Use something related to your favorite Nintendo game or games, but as unique as you can think of.



I would call nintendo and be like WTF!?

if you can't get them to fix their mistake, if not I'd got with friendcode1, and if they ban that too, use friendcode2 and so on and so forth
