GN Version 5.0


- Friend Suggestions: a feature that allows you to “easily connect with friends across multiple Nintendo Account linked services by providing friend recommendations in one service based on your existing friends in another service”
- you can easily find your friends in games you play, services you use, and consoles you own
- search for specific services/games individually
- disabling it doesn’t remove friends you added via this feature, just the suggestions
- Parental Control: can also set up the controls via the website
- feature requires a Child Account, that was introduced in a previous update
- Parental Control tab allows you to do the following: edit info for the Child Account, restrict spending on the Nintendo eShop, set up Age-Based Purchase Restrictions for the Nintendo eShop and edit various settings, such as Friend Suggestions and Usage Information sharing
- able to change the language without changing the country of residence
- if you linked your NNID, you can now look at your Wii U and Nintendo 3DS digital purchases
