Miiverse

[Vipsoccermaster]

Includes your Mii, and various Mii from elsewhere!

Taken from Go Nintendo

- Wii U menu system called Mii Wara Wara, a plaza full of Miis saying all sorts of things
- view your Mii, Miis on your system, your friend's Miis and Miis in the same country having similar experiences
- The Miiverse lets you see what friends are doing, even if you don't have the same games as them
- bring up the Miiverse during gameplay as well
- communication between Miis can happen via text messages, but can also be viewed/used via the Wii U GamePad
- hand-write notes or make doodles on the GamePad for the Miiverse
- Miiverse allows you to add facial expressions for your Mii
- post screenshots from gameplay, or content that you've created yourself
- Miiverse can be accessed by all games via home button

The wii u menu is great.

I didn't know I would be so happy this exists. The Miiverse sounds like a really cool and more helpful version in some ways of StreetPass Plaza. Can't wait to add everybody on here as friends.

Finally they're letting you see what your friends are doing, that was one annoyance with the Wii I had.

 

[gameguy1996]

When I get a wii u I will add everyone on here two.

Provided that they have a Wii U, as well.

I feel like there may only be a few who get the WiiU, and like 1 or 2 in the first week.

I haven't been a fan of the plaza and other things with the Wii and 3DS, but the Miiverse seems good. I might actually get into this.

Lots of stuff here...

This is AWESOME!!!!

They should have implanted the feature back to the Wii because I guarantee that the WiiU will not sell as well on launch then Wii did, just looking back on the Wii's history.

 

[Vipsoccermaster]

This feature won't be available at launch of Wii U, but soon after.

Miiverse will also come to 3DS, as well.

I meant the launch period, like in the first couple months. A lot of my "hardcore" friends seem so attached to their PS3's and 360's that they'll probably lose all interest in the WiiU so they won't bother with that. And the few Wii friends I have had said that the WiiU will have to come to them a lot later than expected, so obviously, if I wanted to get one when the Miiverse feature came out, I'll probably not see any friends on there haha.

Miiverse will also come to 3DS, as well.

I wonder if Mii Plaza will be involved somehow.

That's like not having the Wii menu at launch.  I think you mean that its avaliability on other platforms won't be at launch.

 

[AtomicShyguy]

I'm not fussed when this is released, but I don't really think it's exciting at all.

 

[Vipsoccermaster]

Whoops. Iwata announced that it will be available on Wii U on day 1. Others will be later.

 

[AtomicShyguy]

Imagine the Wii U home being a town, and the Wii U shop would be a shop etc.

 

[yoshi402]

^
This is a bit different, but that would be awesome!!!

 

[Toblet]

I'd be more excited about what Antiguy said with the home being a town. I'm not really bothered about the Miiverse.

 

[gameguy1996]

I like the miiverse it is a nice new idea.

 

[IggyKoopaStar]

This idea is interesting... these features seems good to me, I like these kind of options and I am interested to know more about this thing...
