The shitty friend code system is still there, but as soon as you've got their codes there's more ways to interact with them than on the Wii. And as far as I know, ad-hoc is not supported.

The rest is pretty much answered.

This is incorrect. There is only one friend code per system which basically works like a gamertag or PSN ID (or now an SEN account).

Wrong, PSN and gamertags accounts dont work like that at all. You can have multiple accounts on one system and you can use one account across different systems(in PSN case). 3DS system sounds more like the Wii one

In a way, you're both right.  True, on PS3 and 360, you can log in with multiple accounts on one system or use the same created account on a different system.  That's where you're right.  Rol is right if you take the PSV (PSP didn't have an ID system) into account.  On that system, it's just one account per device.  Of course, you can use the same account as your PS3 if you choose.  One advantage with the 3DS is that you can change your name at any time.  Not too bad if you ask me.  One guy said having one account per system sounded disasterous.  Both Sony and Nintendo seem to think alike when it comes to portables.  One account and one account only.
