UK Pokemon not to have Friend Codes

[wraggster]

Word round the internet is that the UK Release of Pokemon Battle Revolution will not have Friend Codes unlike its USA/Japan Counterpart.

The News comes from the Ngamer magazine.

Thank god for some sense from Nintendo.

Heres the quote from the Ngamer Magazine:


Pokemon Battle Revolution, which is already online-enabled in Japan, will be the first English networked game when the translation is released in the summer, and without requiring the separate, game-specific friend codes that dogged the Japanese version

Yea! There was a major uproar about the Friend codes thing. I'm glad that it was changed for the UK...but what about the US?

i really dont care about friend codes.
i think its a waste of time.

[I heart Nintendo]

Hallelujah!!!

But watch how Nintendo then turns around and says "No online play for UK full stop!" I'd have to walk outside and choke slam somebody.

I would guess that it would be like the DS is. I think the game would have it's own online server.
