I see something like this in the future over here. We're adopting that technology significantly slowly though.


I never really tought of this NFC thing being more than a game technology, but I guess they do this at most grocery stores in America already. So that is basically the same technology. Cool I guess. May as well to it if the Wii U can.


The local McDonalds have had reader for the NFC enabled cards since 2006 when they started taking cashless options, though I hadn't seen on of those cards used as payment up until two years ago. Mobile Paypass was one of the first to use the tech in the US for payments.
