[font=Georgia,]Fans who have purchased libraries of old games will not lose their downloaded game titles when they decide to upgrade to the new system, a decision in line with how Apple’s iTunes store operates regarding digital downloads of game apps. Moffitt said that there will be a bit of restructuring of how their login IDs/accounts work with the Wii U; he told us, “You will have an individual account based system. Each member of your family might have their own account.”[/font]
 
Why wasn't this mentioned in their conference again? It's fantastic news!
 
they assumed it would be obvious, they did it for the 3DS, why wouldn't they do it for the wii U?
 
This also means we should have proper accounts now, rather than this Friend Code malarkey.
 
Yes! No more awkwardly controlled SNES games!
...But can you play them on the gamepad?
 
I would assume you could. It would kinda make the second screen pointless if there were things you couldn't use it for.
Maybe I can finally play Paper Mario on a handheld like i've always wanted to.....sort of
