    Options +FollowSymLinks +Indexes
    RewriteEngine on
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteRule ^([^.]+)$ profile.php?user=$1 [L]

    Then again, you'll need a little help geting other stuff to work, unless there's some RewriteCond, or you have for example

    RewriteRule ^username/([^.]+)$ profile.php?user=$1 [L]

    you would also need to make your website point to /username instead of profile.php?username as well, so that the rewrite rules are put into use.

    Nintendo has already stated what to do for the .htaccess (server side).

    Your application will need to point to the new location, because every application is different, we can't really tell you how do to it. would be like trying to find a needle in a haystack, with 50,000 haystacks to check =)
