Chris McGee asked:
Each Wii system has a 16 digit code, for the system itself. The wii console code is used to send messages to your friends.
Each game that uses the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection generates a unique 12 digit friend code that can be exchanged with friends and be used to maintain individual friend lists in each game. It is kind of annoying to have to do each time you get a new game, but once your registered and you registered your friends, you’re in the clear.
So, don’t get confused. The Wii console and Wii online games have different codes. The Wii codes you need to know are the Wii console code and the Wii friend code. When you are asked for a Wii code, it is usually one of these two.
You use your Wii’s code when sending messages to friends via the message board under the Wii menu, and you use the individual code on each game for Wi-Fi playing. Accessing your friend code is different for each of your games. Only some games are WiFi playable, so check the back of the box if you’re unsure.
How do you know what your friend code is for the wii?
I’ll walk you there with my wii.
First, go to the place with all the channels (Wii menu)
Second, on the lower right hand corner you will see an
envelope (wii message board) click on it.
Third, on your lower left hand corner, right next to calender, you will see an icon of a piece of paper with a black pen over it (create messages) click on it.
Fourth, click on the third choice to the right (Address book), and then click on it. Your friend code will be there. It will say
“This console’s Wii Number”
Your code looks like this: 1234 - 5678 - 9012 - 3456
Your Friend Code is for online for your friends. So if you just want a random person as your friend for Online only, give them ur FC. If you want to add friend codes, click register
(also in address book) and then type in your friend’s friend code.
Many games have additional features that are enabled between two registered friends. These may include customized matchmaking options, cooperative play, friend lists, text chat, and voice chat.
If a user needs to replace his or her DS system, then the old system’s Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection ID can be transferred wirelessly, to maintain the user’s original Friend codes on the new machine.
