So you're telling me I should wait a year for a better chance at being a glorious second-hand Ambassador?
Yep. This is basically Nintendo telling you to not buy a Wii U yet.
Wait... does the 3DS have the same issue??
I sold my 3DS a while ago with a ton of games downloaded via that eShop shit.
I'll have to get another 3DS.
Didn't you try:way I have found the games so far is pot luck, clicked on trine 2, went to view details and it said redownload.
Who the heck is buying a Wii u, buying multiple download games, and then selling the Wii u, all within two months?

So whats the point of a Nintendo Network account again?
this would have killed the 360.
Hahaha...Poor Nintendo just doesn't get the internet thingamajig.
Nintendo, look at Android playstore, Apple appstore, Amazon, appstore, Xbox live, psn etc.
If you still don't get it , hire a couple of 13 year olds to explain how its done.
As a Nintendo fan , I find them absolutely comical these days. Especially with the WiiU
To be fair, I think the others have some issues as well.
For example, I've had my iTunes account for years. I've had a few PCs die on me so I can't really de-associate my account with them.
Now I just learned that I can't tie my apple account to any more hardware... yeah.

Wondering the same.Is the previous user's account still on the console?
edit: answered
edit2: *reads again* you said he wiped the contents of the system, but does that include all user account info?
So whats the point of a Nintendo Network account again?
nintendo gifts you with games after buying a used console, and it still isn´t ok.
what do you want gamers?
whoever owned the console before me purchased multiple games, meaning all the games he purchased are available to redownload for free....This is with a new account btw I setup as well. Games are clearly linked to Console itself. Advice to those buying a second hand WiiU's...check all the games on the Store...you might be in for some "free" games!
It's pretty obvious the previous owner simply didn't wipe the system clean. You can get free games on used PS3's and Xboxes aswell if the owners leave their info there. I guess on those systems closing up access is easier though.
No they don't, what they do is prevent you from retaining your games if you sell the system and decided to pick up another one at some point in the future.
What this nebulous idea of gamers want, in this case, is an account system rather than an "account system".
It's really, really important that people know the Wii U is a failure, though.Same with the Wii, DSi, and 3DS. People first notice it now?

amazing how this is suddenly a bad thing to a group of cheap ass gamers who love cheaper and free stuff
