An account that your digital purchases are tied to. If he wants to transfer his NNID over to a new system, there's 2 ways to do it; a system transfer directly from old system to new system, or a phone call to move the NNID from a lost/broken/otherwise-not-present system to a new one. Just make sure to record the serial number of the old one.

Works perfectly fine, and not every single account system needs to function identically. There's not a single ideal platonic form of "account system" that Nintendo is failing to reach. It's a convenience feature that's missing, nothing more.

I really wouldn't consider it a convenience feature. It's an industry standard and pretty much always has been. If Nintendo doesn't want to adhere to that fine, but as a customer it makes it way less tempting to come back to any of their products when every other company has a painless logical way to access your content. I mean, kind of one of the biggest appeals of buying digital is having hassle free access to your own library. If I lost any of my other devices tomorrow I could just buy a new one and log in and have all my content right there. Nintendos way of doing it is pretty objectively inferior to everyone else.

Didn't Nintendo say they are announcing their new unified account system this year? Maybe it'll finally fix these problems.

PneumonicBook posted:I see you're arguing with Jiv "Nintendo can literally never do anything wrong" jov. I have never and will never say that Nintendo can do no wrong. The eshop is atrociously laid out, although the Wii U version is marginally better than the 3DS. The complete radio silence on if and when certain games will hit Virtual Console between regions is infuriating. The unexplained release date gaps of retail titles (such as Wooly World, what the hell Nintendo) between regions is similarly infuriating. Early amiibo distribution has been hosed up (but thankfully has been showing continual improvement). But the continual bitching and whining and moaning of "Nintendo doesn't have this one convenience feature therefor they suck at online" pisses me off to no end. mycot posted:Step one of the Jivjov cycle. And hey, you can recover all of your nintendo games onto a new system. Either keep your old system around and do a system transfer, or call Nintendo and talk to a rep for like 3 minutes. Problem freakin solved.

A complaint is one thing "hey wouldn't it be nice if NNID was identical to Steam and you could just log in and go?" Sure. That's fine, and reasonable, and I 100% agree with the sentiment. But "I'm done buying anything Nintendo makes because I have to make a phone call" is more than a simple complaint. That's entitled elitist pissbaby whining.

I was really hoping we'd here something at E3 about it. That as well as the DeNA/Nintendo partnership has me pretty excited for next year. If you want to see how DeNA can grab classic IPs and put them into a not terrible F2P game go check out Final Fantasy Record Keeper, it's pretty good.
