At the end of the second Arc of the first season, Kirito was able to access
Kayaba's Administrator Account and gained control of ALO's systems.
Afterwards, Kayaba appeared and gave Kirito [_The
Seed_](http://swordartonline.wikia.com/wiki/World_Seed), a free kernel of the
Cardinal System for the creation of new games and allowing players to pass
stats between games. This ended up creating The Seed Nexus.

Now I am wondering, since ALO and the Recreated SAO are a part of The Seed
Nexus, can Kayaba's Administrator Account go between games?

Is Kayaba's Admin Account a part of The Seed Nexus?


No, it won't. The reason Kayaba's admin account works in ALO is that ALO uses
the database of SAO. ALO is actually SAO with improvements here and there,
changing the textures, adding flight system, etc. That's why Asuna is there.
That's why when Kirito logged into ALO, he retrieved his stats and items,
though, due to the change in game resources, his items are mostly broken.

So, it is reasonable to say that a game created from the Seed would not have
Kayaba's admin account, since it doesn't have the same database. There is a
chance that Kayaba would hard code his account into the Seed's program, but I
don't think it is likely since hard-coding is a bad practice.
