The Miiverse logo.

Miiverse is the Wii U's social network, integrated into software such as WaraWara Plaza (bustling plaza) to bring people together, communicate, and comment on certain games and software. The network is built similarly to Twitter, as players can "Yeah" (like) and flag comments, as well as follow or befriend other users. Miiverse is also set to become an application for the Nintendo 3DS, smartphones, PCs and tablets later on in the year, allowing the player to answer questions and receive tips even when away from home. It is currently accessible on the Wii U and on Nintendo's website.

History

New Super Mario Bros. U

New Super Mario Bros. U is the first main Mario title to incorporate Miiverse. Miiverse in New Super Mario Bros. U is used to create comments on specific courses that either inform, advise, or comment on the course itself. Players are also able to use Miiverse to create snapshots/replays of their accomplishments or results of Challenge Mode or Boost Rush Mode and post it on community forums.

Nintendo Land

Miiverse in Nintendo Land works similarly to Miiverse in New Super Mario Bros. U, with the ability to take snapshots of the results of attractions and post comments on the plaza to inform, advise, or communicate with other players.

Mario Kart 8

In Mario Kart 8 for the Wii U, players will be able to share replay videos of an entire race or a thirty second video created by the software showing the highlights of the race. Players will also be able to view and comment on others' videos. This is done within the Mario Kart 8 software through a feature called Mario Kart TV, not in the Miiverse software.
