The Nintendo Switch has recently released and it looks like friend codes are back with a vengeance. However you can add friends through social media and other methods is on its way via an update after launch. The following statement comes directly from Nintendo:

• Several methods can be used to add friends as quickly and easily as possible: · By linking Nintendo Switch to your Nintendo Account, your friends from Miitomo and Super Mario Run will appear as friend candidates so you can easily send them a friend request. Also, we are planning it so that friends from social networking services will be listed as candidates, too.
• In the future, you will be able to send a friend request to friends associated with your NNID (Wii U/Miiverse) and Nintendo 3DS.
• In some games you will be able to use an in-game interface to send friend requests.
• You can send friend requests to those who have played with you recently.
• You can establish a friend through local wireless communication.
