Looks like another developer has stepped forward and grumbled about Nintendo's gimped online service, more specifically its moronic friend code system. Square Enix doesn't want it, and guess what, neither do most of us, if not all. From Cubed via GameLife:
"Square Enix vice president Hiromichi Tanaka talked to Euro website Cubed3, and in a (highly paraphrased) transcript of the chat, he revealed that although there are no plans to bring Final Fantasy XI Online (above) to the Wii, they are working on trying to get Nintendo to ease up on the whole stupid Friend Codes thing. Great. Ostensibly, Friend Codes keep kids safe from child predators; in reality they just make me not want to use my Wii."
If square feels this way, im sure other developers feel it too. What do you think, will friend codes ruin the WIi's online potential? Sound off in the comments.

I hate the stupid friend codes stuff. Because of it I rarely play my DS online. I hope that square enix can get them to ease up
