Looks like we won’t be given Mii-specific Friend Codes after all. It seems that Mario Strikers Charged producer Justin Dowdeswell was mistranslated or misquoted amidst all the chaos surrounding Friend Codes. Mr. Dowdeswell has confirmed that the Mii-specific system that he talked about only applied to his game, and that he doesn’t know how the system will work in other online games.

I guess we’ll have to make with what we have, and what we have are individual Friend Codes for every single online game we get. Hey, it worked on the DS right? 5 million users? …when it could’ve been 40 million…
