Some updates have emerged for the Miiverse feature for the Nintendo Wii U over the recent Nintendo Direct (1/23/2013.)
Nintendo plans to give more features to the Miiverse service this spring. These features include:
- The ability to make user communities
- Official titles will have more than one community
- Improvements on usability
- Add filtering functions
Nintendo is also preparing to allow access to Miiverse via Smartphone this spring. It will start as a browser based experience for the Smartphones, but they do plan on creating an app for Miiverse sometime in the future.
Wii Fit U will be adding the new features that will allow you to create closed user communities on the Miiverse. You'll be given an ID Number for your community, when you use this ID Number in Wii Fit U you can access the community in the Miiverse, kind of like the community feature for Mario Kart 7. You will be able to discuss your exercises, weight changes, or other health topics with other players.
It has been announced that
Pikmin 3 will allow you to use the GamePad as a camera to take in-game pictures from a Pikmin's point of view, you will be able to share these pictures in Miiverse. It's actually quite humorous really.
