News: Wii U to Have Individual User Accounts

Personal online accounts will not be indivisibly tied to consoles...

One last nugget from Satoru Iwata's investor briefing now, with the president revealing that Wii U will utilise individual user accounts to link with Nintendo Network.

With previous systems, accounts were tied to the system hardware, rather than the user. This time around, Iwata admitted the need to solve situations where the same console is shared by multiple family members.

Nintendo is keeping specifics very close to its chest for now, but confirmed that more information on Wii U's online will be shared in the near future.
