When Nintendo announced Miiverse I said “Cool, another non-gaming feature I’ll rarely use.” Well, I couldn’t have been more wrong. Miiverse is actually pretty useful and one of the best ‘non-gaming’ features to come along in a long time. Here’s why Miiverse succeeds and a few suggestions on how Nintendo can improve the service.
Hanzala from eXputer: "The cruel hammer of Nintendo has fallen. Farewell, 3DS and Wii U, you surely brightened my life and many others; you won't be forgotten."
A new list goes over eight of the the most useless amiibo, ranging from the Shadow Mewtwo card to the Qbby figure.
VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "10 years. It’s been almost 10 years since the last mainline release in the Mario Kart series. Mario Kart 8 came out for the Wii U in 2014 and became the best-selling game for the system by a sizeable margin, and later pulled the same magic trick on the Nintendo Switch under the stage name Deluxe. All in all, it's sold nearly 70 million copies over the last decade and is still selling like hot cakes to this day, so it’s no wonder Nintendo has been in no rush to replace it. However, with rumors of a new system being just around the corner, and reports a few years back that a new Mario Kart is indeed under way, it seems the era of 8 might very well be drawing to a close. It’s an exciting prospect to be sure, but after two Nintendo systems with Mario Kart 8 at their heart, a lot of questions remain about how Nintendo will choose to follow it up."
I hope they just keep building on Mario Kart 8; Add a track-creation tool, and probably open it up to more Nintendo IPs with new tracks and characters, so Metroid, Punch Out, Starfox, Animal Crossing, etc etc.
there wont be a new one until the switch 2 comes out.
nintendo needs their bangers early on
I would probably find the community aspects of Miiverse more engaging than the community aspects of trophies and achievements, which I don't really care about all the time. It would be fun to see communities on Wii U for third party games share messages with the world and help each other out.
Miiverse is flat-out @#$%ing brilliant, and I wouldn't be surprised to see Sony or Microsoft incorporate something similar into their next consoles.
Miiverse is amazing! I spend almost as much time on there chatting and viewing awesome user artwork, posts and gaming tips as I do playing the games. I love it so far and it is just the beginning.. It has room to grow and become better over the course of the next few years. Addicted!
Miiverse is a blast and deserves all the praise it gets!
I have been a gamer for over 28 years, and I can say with certainty that Miiverse is the best social interactive app in the history of videogames, it's fun, helpful, fresh and above all addicting. I am having a blast using it and can't stop myself from accessing it mid-game to post something funny or helpful, typed or hand written/drawn, and continue to use it forgetting that I am in the middle of a game!!
Besides, Nano Assault Neo is AWESOME. I had to get that off my chest!!
