Hey all,

I've grown used to XBL profiles - and the convenience of having personalized settings, access to my own friends list, etc. I just brought the Wii system today and sat down with my boyfriend trying to figure out if this feature or something very similar is available with the Wii since I'll be sharing it with him. In its current state he can't vote without changing my choices and so on. If there isn't this customization available what have others done to accommodate themselves?

This is really nagging me so I appreciate any help with this, Thanks!

Problem is everything is shared except for the Miis but options are limited (console settings cannot be changed for each person) though games such as Brawl can save things such as preferred control scheme for each Mii. Forget about voting, that channel is useless. What other things do you want to change?

Iv got two profiles to vote with on my wii. Ones mines, and the other is my girlfriends. Just make a Mii profile for both of you, I think thats what I did.

Its a gaming system. Everything about it is useless. Too bad they included Gamecube ports.

And yes, you can setup voting for multiple people. Just make some Miis and you can create a new voter at the top of the Everyone Votes channel and select Miis for each of you. My channel is setup for three people at the moment.

You can definitely have multiple users for the Everybody Votes Channel. I do it on mine.

I appreciate the help. I was just wondering if the Wii had something somewhat identical to what XBL offers with individual logins and the ability to customize without interfering with someone else's customizations. I see that's not necessarily the case now but as I said before I appreciate the help.

Thanks :)
