Entertainment / Video Games / Friend code: This is Nintendo?€™s method of identifying players on the Wii console, and DS handheld when connecting to online games through the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection service. Friend codes are 12 digit strings that are generated by identifiers unique to a copy of a game, and to the specific console or handheld it is being played on. Exchanging friend codes allows players to play against each other online, and find each other again during subsequent sessions. The same copy of a game will generate a different friend code when played on a different piece of hardware. These measures, while significantly more complex than similar friend management tools on other consoles, are said by Nintendo to 'preserve users?€™ privacy.' Many gamers criticize them for being needlessly complex, and for making buddy list organization unnecessarily difficult.
