Nintendo has recently sent an update out to every Nintendo Wii console in the land which adds a few bells and whistles to its Miiverse service.
Our friends at Nintendo Everything were able to grab a whole list of what the update included:
– Receive updates directly from Nintendo
– These will be shown in a dedicated Miiverse community (can be accessed through User Menu)
– Nintendo will make announcements about changes to the service
– Tom (NOA) and Marty (NoE) will explain what to expect in Miiverse
– First update from Tom/Marty: talk about changes to the notification system
– Will receive messages when someone has decided to follow you
– After commenting on someone’s post, you will no longer get notifications from people who aren’t the original poster
– Can only post once every five minutes now
– Changes made to the Code of Conduct (“By Gamers, About Games” section)
– Nintendo doesn’t want off-topic posts any longer, don’t condone openly asking for friend requests or pushing for agreement on a certain topic
As well as this, Nintendo has now prevented users under the age of 12 from receiving any friend requests at all. Smart move to protect their user base or another move to push the Wii U back in the past when it comes to online communities? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below!
