Nintendo Network ID

I went to add mine to the site (I had it already on my 3DS, but it is more prominent on the WiiU). Anyhow, I notice we have Xbox, PSN, and Steam, but nothing for big N.

If you bought a Wii U, it would ask you for an ID to setup as soon as you connected internet to it.

Cool info thanks for that! I may eventually one day down the road get a Wii U, but probably not before Nintendo launches a new console though, since that's what is seems like they are going for a new console sooner rather than later.

All I ever want is games, but my family members don't like buying me games because they think I already have everything. That's why I put the Wii stuff on Amazon, because I buy the others. Keeps it safe for everyone.

I had to give it to her early because we were walking around and she was looking to buy herself one. This was after I already snuck up to PA and bought this for her. I made a spreadsheet (as I do) to track all the retailers within 150 miles, then called them all and played them against one another. Paying cash gets you the best price of course. She loves it, very professional grade. Basically from what I could tell, this is the best in this price range, the next step up is over $10k.
