He added, “The friend code system has also been refined. It still exists but in the same way that you'd need to pair up with friends on PSN or Xbox Live. Now it's much closer to that kind of online gaming experience than what it was before.”
Users of the Nintendo Wii that aimed to create relationships using their home consoles have long complained about the over complicated nature of the Friend Code system and have asked Nintendo to streamline it as part of a firmware update.
The company has always maintained that the security and privacy of Wii users was at the forefront when the system was designed.
Apparently the fact that Nintendo platforms attract a younger audience is always taken into account at the company and protecting them from unwanted experiences and from aggressive players is one of the main concerns of the company going forward.
Lowe would not say exactly when more announcements about the online and social elements included in the Wii U will be unveiled by Satoru Iwata.
The new console is set to be launched at some point during 2012 so there's plenty of time to make sure that social gamers are able to enjoy the Wii U.
