Miiverse Also Coming to 3DS, Other Platforms
« on: June 03, 2012, 07:38:55 PM »

Nintendo's social network is coming to the 3DS, mobile devices, and PCs, but a little later.

http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/news/30411

Nintendo's recently announced Miiverse functionality will also be coming to the 3DS, future Nintendo platforms, and web-connected mobile devices and PCs. However, when he announced these plans at the recent Pre-E3 2012 Nintendo Direct event, Iwata said that this would not happen at "launch."

Please read our previous article covering the same event for more details of the Miiverse social network that will be an integral feature of Nintendo's upcoming Wii U console.

Nintendo's talked about making their services available through PCs before, but those comments referred to allowing people to purchase downloadable games on a computer instead of only on their console.

A glooming peace this morning with it brings;
The sun, for sorrow, will not show his head:
Go hence, to have more talk of these sad things;
Some shall be pardon'd, and some punished:
For never was a story of more woe
Than this of Sega and her Mashiro.

Wouldn't this imply a very soon Wii U launch date?  If they won't have the Miiverse available for 3DS by launch, maybe it's just because they don't have time to get it ready.

It was already known that WiiU was a calendar 2012 release...

"Presence on Mobile Devices"


To modify what Reggie said, that box will be checked shortly after launch.

Iwata pronounces it Meavers. Leave it to Meaver.

It seems like the "next step" online features always get pushed beyond launch. Well, at least it's coming; it all looks very promising.
