Satoru Iwata outlined how the Wii U’s account system will work during today’s Japanese Nintendo Direct.

One of the first things you’ll do on the console is make a user account. Up to twelve users with the own Miis can be registered per system.

Once created, you can tie-in game settings, save data, browser bookmarks, and play history to your account.

To get involved with features such as video chat, you’ll need a Nintendo Network ID. This is made up of a username, password, email, date of birth info, and gender. Downloadable purchases made by one Nintendo Network user can be played by other users on the same console.
