welsh_gamer Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 Me too! I've allready put some money aside so that I can get it straight away. The online sounds wicked, especially for Nintendo fans like myself, who havent played a game online on a home console before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flameboy Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 Read a few speculations amongst forums etc... that people seem to think the Friend Code assigned to each Mii will be transferable for every game that supports Miis. Sounds like a good idea... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoochem Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 I was going to buy this game anyway since i love the first game for the good ol' cube But the online mode is a nice addition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yoochem Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 I loved the cube version. *runs off to play it* Lol, I did exactly the same. It's been long since I played the game, but I won the first match I played today (Wario - Luigi) with 10 - 2 :P Looks like I still got it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cube Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 Can you elaborate on this a bit more? Thank you, darling. It's possible that Friend Codes are Mii-related, not Game-Related. If it's true...that'll be most complaints about the system squished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep Cube got it one...I am however yet to work out where these rumours have surfaced from but have read a couple of peoples thoughts about it, and seems to make sense...I mean it would be pretty simple assign each Mii a Friend Code and that Mii's number is simply stored as part of the Mii with all the rest of the data...

Fierce_LiNk Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 Ahh, that would make sense. Cheers for making it clear, guys. Especially seeing as how if you register another Mii it registers another friend code. You know, when the Mii system got introduced, I thought straight away "...online personas? Friend codes?"

Now that sounds good. Excellent in fact. If that's true, this and Skype should be utterly fantastic, we should have a tournament some time. With Skype, of course.

Cube Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 Now that sounds good. Excellent in fact. If that's true, this and Skype should be utterly fantastic, we should have a tournament some time. With Skype, of course. It would also explain: - Why the System Code is not used. - Why Connect 24 games use the system code (as it sends stuff to the system. Wario Ware uses Mii's as save files, so Friend Codes wouldn't be hard to save. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you mean that Skype might become available for the Wii some time (are there any rumours or something?) or that people will just have to be lucky to have their pc close to their tv :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fierce_LiNk Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 Hang on, but if you check page 9 of this thread, Dante has posted some pictures which distinctively show somebody adding a friend code. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fierce_LiNk Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 Which would happen in both possible systems. Ok, now I'm confused. (go easy on me, I've been awake since 5) So, you add the friend code once, to register the Mii? And then, that Mii Code is universal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah...so it is possible you will have to add one "Mii Friend Code" then every game which uses Mii's could possibly only use this code... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dyson Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 Basically, each Mii will end up having a code, as your own online persona/avatar. Games that support Mii's will share the same code universally, if you use that same Mii in the game, instead of having friend codes. In other words, instead of having Friend Codes for each game, you'll have Friend Codes for each Mii. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Bananagrabber Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 So if you've added a certain Mii's code, you can play with that Mii on whatever game they're playing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dazzybee Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 The friend code for each Mii sounds amazing, and surely to logical for NIntendo to do Please be true! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cookyman Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 Just preordered from choices £28.99 delivered. Heres hoping it gets good reviews I want some online Wii action! take some of you guys on here on! I can see a massive amount of friend code swapping happening on here from May 25th!

Mike Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 Although the Mii-specific Friend Code sounds like a nice idea, I don't think we should be getting our hopes up about it, after everything that Nintendo have said about their online structure and FCs in the past. We know quite a lot about how this will plat online, from various fact sheets, and I'm sure that Mii-specific FCs would have been mentioned if they existed. Besides, what's the point if they're not universal to all online games? PBR doesn't use Miis, so there's another code we'd have to deal with for a start.

Cube Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 PBR doesn't use Miis, so there's another code we'd have to deal with for a start. But that was released (In Japan, anyway) before the Wii's Online System was made. Why would Nintendo need to release any new code (like developers have been wanting) at all if it uses the same system as the DS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
