Dumb question... couldn't I use the internet to trade my WiiU info with kids, then do video chat with them and do much, much worse than sending them photos?
Will Wii U video chat be next on the chopping block?
I've wondered about that since I booted up my Wii U and saw this was an option. It just seemed to go against the entire Nintendo protect the minors philosophy. I still can't figure out how that got through with no handwringing.
Of course, it figures they would do this. I finally got enough juicy messages and pictures to start charging for copies of these swapnotes and maybe a make a business out of it and now this happens. One step forward, two steps back.
On a more serious note, I've really never paid much attention or looked into what spotpass means so now someone can feel free to educate me. But wouldn't people still have to trade friendcodes first and set each other up before sending each other swapnotes? How is this any different from when I send a swapnote to somebody in my friend list?
