Hey guys
I know there is many threads on this but I still did not quite understand the topic. I read that the downloaded games are linked to the console and the NNID.

I just got my first wii U second hand. There is an account on it with NNID that downloaded Zelda Wind waker HD. Sadly i don't have access to that account because the password is unknown. Is there a way to keep the game on the console and make a second account with NNID so I can purchase more digital games?

Sorry about the simple question, but the Account/Console linked system by Nintendo is a bit confusing.

@Astrus You can have up to 12 NNIDs associated with one Wii U, so just create a new NNID without deleting the old one and you'll still be able to play WWHD and but new games.

You guys had me at blood and semen.

What better way to celebrate than firing something out of the pipe?

Nothing is true. Everything is permitted.

I made a second NNID ages ago, and all the games that I've downloaded on my original NNID are playable on the second. Athough the in game saves don't transfer over though.
