With its new ways of both creating and sharing user-made content, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate has become the unexpected successor to Nintendo’s beautiful disaster of a social media experiment Miiverse.
Miiverse was insanity, and it was hilarious. It had a super strange community, there’s a bunch of YouTube videos about it.
I have smash ultimate, but haven’t checked out the new update. I’ll for sure take a look.
I'm interested to check it out as well. Haven't played Smash in a while now... I think it was my issues with having multiple people play at once. The controller drifting and input lag was terrible. Not sure if they fixed that yet, but it was a pain to play when I had 3-4 friends on at the same time.
Send your switch in not everyone have that issue, only one that listed that others experience is drifting issue but input lag and playing with 4 people do not have any issues
After shutting down a few months back, a few fans managed to collate Miiverse posts and save it on the internet.
The Miiverse gave myself, and so many others, a platform unlike any console had ever seen before. For once, our reactions to games, both about them generally and in the moment-to-moment, were given life in the games themselves. The Miiverse's concept was novel, fresh, new. It felt like the first true social video game platform. And it's a shame that it was for a console that hardly anyone actually played.
Cool, some detailed information would be nice
Will probably be the Nintendo Direct I pay most attention too. As I've stated in the past, how Nintendo approaches their online infrastructure and online services (especially, but not only the Virtual Console) is imperative for them moving forward.
It doesn't need any bloat, only efficient and simple execution. Allow its consumers to block or friend whomever they want, an account based system so that downloaded games aren't tied to the hardware (in case of hardware breakdown) And no more trickle down releases. If they get this right, Nintendo will be on the right track. If not...oh boy.
Edit
Having only minimally taken my Wii online and never bothering playing my 360 online (too many idiots + me sucking = not fun :) ) I'm happy to see where Nintendo is going with this.
All I want is a simple online system, with simple matchmaking and an online shop that highlights the gems and has a decent recommendation system (which hopefully Miiverse caters for)... and Nintendo are famed for using the KISS principle, so I think Miiverse will be fine.
Can't wait to finally get hold of the console. Everything I read about it makes me want it more. This is going to be a great end to the year.
