I thought the 360 system of adding friends and such was easy, but once I got to saving games and moving information from one 360 to the other,things got terrible.

It is a confusing and frustrating thing wen you have more than 2 profiles on any 360. If this friend code abolition thing actually came true, and a single "system" code was the main focus, I would jump for joy......


What's the issue, I have 3 consoles and just move my HDD from one to the other, its not rocket science...

 

OT- About time

Well, my Rockband 2 data has been overwritten and my Live account/profile is all over the place. The stuff shouldn't be this complicated.....


How can you overwrite you RB2 data, I've never lost anything due to moving my HDD.  I've never had a corrupted profile either so in that instance you would be best deleting your profile and recovering it from xbox live.  You do realise that RB2 DLC such as your songs can only be accessed on different consoles if they are connected to Live.  You can access any DLC on your HDD offline on the console you downloaded on, but if you move that HDD to another console then it needs to be connected to Live to access your DLC.

For those who think this might be true. 1. it IGN. 2. Its a rumor. Don't get your hopes up on rumors. Trust me

(killeryoshis note - Who put that there ?)
Switch is 9th generation. Everyone else is playing on last gen systems! UPDATE: This is no longer true

I really hope so. I always hated the Friend Code system.

My belief is that Nintendo should make a deal with Facebook and have all your Facebook Friends automatically known for all your Wii games, or at least those released after an update.



A game I'm developing with some friends:

It is largely a technical exercise but feedback is appreciated.

I, being an early adopter of the Wii never really had a problem with the friend codes. I actually like them to a point. It's the individual codes for games that are problem.

If the rumors are true (source is questionable), then I believe Nintendo or a 3rd party could provide a remedy through a new channel.
