Miiverse producer Kiyoshi Mizuki revealed at GDC that Nintendo (along with the help of 3rd party developers aperently) will try the following changes to Miiverse in the near future.


-Players will be able to send and receive comments in-game.

-Players will be able to see ‘Yeahs’ in-game.

-They can follow users, and see who users are following in-game.

-Users will be able to launch games from Miiverse Posts

-Launch buttons on Miiverse posts can contain program arguments, so it will be possible to boot directly to a certain level or menu in a game

-Can work with online datastore for additional functionality

-Mizuki posited the potential application of level editing and sharing via Miiverse;
envisions a game where users bring the game to life (sounds very LBP)

-User Sub-Communities (like Mario Kart 7′s) are coming to Miiverse

-Can be used to organise and hold tournaments

-First game to use them is Wii Fit U

-Nintendo is canvassing developers for anything else they’d like to see in the API

What do you think of the changes? Do you want them or would you rather have Nintendo focus on something else?

Larger amount of characters per post. That's it.
