Project Cafe will not use friend codes according to 1UP

Critics have stated for years that Nintendo’s policy on friend codes have been sub-par. The Wii had a 16 digit code that needed to be traded with other Wiis. Nintendo, with the massive criticism, took a step in the right direction with a 12 digit singular system code with the 3DS, where by the players only needed to trade their system codes to play any game online.

However, all that may be changing. In 1UP’s Oddcast, Sam Kennedy has stated that Project Cafe will indeed use no friend codes.
