If it's anywhere near as comfortable as the Gamecube controller, Wii win.
Rumor: New Wii U controller (analog sticks)?

And Zelda most likely won't be using them. =(

Friend codes aren't even that big a deal. I don't get all the complaining. Most people have usernames as hard to remember as 12 digits.
Huh, I honestly feel the exact opposite. I guess it has to do with how you hold your thumb on the stick or something. Though I also like the octagonal gate so maybe I'm just weird
Mine is 'dallow'.
And none of the people I know have idiot names like that that I see in online games sometimes.
I can't believe people actually defend Friend Codes. It seems there will always be someone to defend anything.
yup, I think this is the case.

Gamers are a spoiled bunch though.
I remember those bitching about the 3DS friend code situation where you only have to enter the code ONCE and then never again.
The only bitch I have about the 3DS FC system is that BOTH people have to enter the code.
Man I wish it would let me know who wanted to add me.

Friend Codes are trash and have no place in 2012, I shouldn't have to enter a friend code period.

I remember wanting that keyboard controller for the GameCube so bad...Probably would not have been very fun to play PSO with it though. The new WiiU controller looks alright, I'd have to give it a spin first before really being able to tell how comfy it'll be. I still remember picking up the GameCube controller for the very first time at a Cube Club in Chicago...so nice.

There is a superior username system already in place everywhere else, no need for it in 2012.
It is a step in the right direction but they could have easily used usernames. Like I said, this can all be solved with the proper parental controls. Give the parents the options to:
- Show gamertag online or use a placeholder
- Allow messages from strangers or block them
- Allow friend requests from strangers or block the,
- Allow the user to listen to other players online or not
- Enable mic or not

So Nintendo has to do what others are doing???
They make the rules as it's their company.

It's an antiquated and objectively worse method and we have every right to complain about how trash it is.
I believe these two are possible with parental controls on 3DS. At least the Heroes of... eh whatever it was called, the game from Square Enix. At least the dev commentary trailer on the eshop mentioned that "you can even talk to random people online, provided the parental controls allow it"

Never said you couldn't hate it or complain about it but they don't owe it to us.

Friend Codes are some James Cameron shit. Everyone else is at Whedon levels, Nintendo need to catch up to their superiors.

Smh. Youre actually defending FC? Ugh.
Another step in the right direction, but I think they should have done these options from the 3DS itself and not inside the game. (unless it is possible on the 3DS itself? I haven't even checked tbh)

Probably moreso listening to third party developers.
Well, I made this gif.
Much like it was mentioned in the Destructoid Wii Remote comparisons, "red beans and rice didn't miss her."
Oh, Sir Mix-A-Lot...
Yeah. I don't get it. I'm not saying it's a perfect way of doing things, but nothing is. There's always a trade-off somewhere.
And yeah, that bitching you mentioned? Still happening.
The easiest way around this: Tie your Nintendo Network Friend Code to your Facebook and Twitter accounts. And suddenly, you'd rarely even need to know a Friend Code at all.

Not as deep as he thinks
Hahahaha. If only you knew!

It's never made my life more difficult. And it may have saved the life of a child. So, whatever.

Yeah.
My point was basically that gamers will never stop complaining.
I mean, game companies aren't going to go as far as to let people like you and me create their wares.
Nor should they.
I mean, some people STILL aren't satisfied with the new Wii U controller and sure that's their right but it'll always be something.
I understand why they made that controller, but damn it was not a very sleek design lol.

Honestly, if they made a Wii CC version of that I would have used it for MH3. True story.

FCs never stopped thousands of children being groomed by drive-by Pictochatters.
Sure it is. It's all rounded and shit. That's sleek!
Oh God! Hahahahha xD
Considering no one USED Pictochat, I doubt the validity of this statement.

Wow I didn't know children were dying due to Xbox Live and PSN having names instead of Friend Codes. We must stop this from happening.
