EA says "Nintendo Network ID" needed to play online

Nintendo has been very quiet about the details of the Wii U's online service, but EA has updated their Privacy Policy with some interesting information. Apparently every player will be given a unique "Nintendo Network ID."

EA Privacy Policy - Section V: Paragraph 3


Wii U

If you sign up to play EA games through a Nintendo Wii U console, your Nintendo account information will be provided to EA so that we can establish an Origin Account for you. You need an Origin Account to play EA’s titles online. By signing up to play EA’s titles, you agree that limited user account information can be transferred to EA. Information transferred to EA includes your Mii information, email address, Nintendo Network ID, friend list, country, language and date of birth but does not include credit card number or other financial account information.
