The End of the Miiverse as We Know It

by

Nintendo has sadly announced that Miiverse, the Mii-centric social media platform for the Nintendo 3DS and Wii U will be ending in November. Titles compatible with Miiverse will also lose access to the service.

On November 7th the following will come into effect, per Nintendo’s post:

  • You will no longer be able to access Miiverse from the Wii U console, Nintendo 3DS family of systems or from an internet browser on PCs or smart devices. All Miiverse services will become unavailable, such as viewing or making posts, and messaging with friends. However, for a limited time, you will be able to make a request to download all the posts you’ve made up to the day of the closure. 
  • For Wii U and Nintendo 3DS games that support in-game Miiverse functionality, these features and services will no longer be available. 
  • Miiverse posts will no longer appear in the Wara Wara Plaza on Wii U.

A sad day to be sure! Be sure to hit the link though, you can download your past pictures before the service ends!

  7. Don’t think I ever used it tbh, can’t say I’m bothered it’s going either. Did they improve Mii creation on the Switch?

  9. You know, it’s a shame for the people who used the service responsibly because i saw some darn good pictures and concepts written there, oh well… Still, Nintendo realizes this failed and moved on, I am happy they figured it out.

  13. I dun had a thought (anime wise)
    After this week’s episode and next week’s with Brionne and Dhelmise and the Charjabug kart thing Ash goes back to Kanto for two episodes, maybe some major plot point will transpire during his absence because other than the occasionally challenge and slice’o’life bull he really has no driving force to catch and collect Pokemon or go out

    I just hope that we get
    -more captures for everyone
    -a driven plot
    -Rivals (Gladion and Hau because that turd is bound to wind up in the anime sooner or later and I feel he will have his own Pikachu)
    -Either more episodes focusing on Team Skull or the Aether Foundation

    • I mean he’s already done two Grand trials, yet only has 1 evolved Mon and the two starters base form. Cant remember it being this poor since Best Wishes maybe? And even then he had a bigger & better team after 2-3 gyms if i recall

      • At least in BW he caught plenty of stuff, I dunno it’s just been going downhill for a while now

        I just want some action REAL action, I can’t remember the last battle that got my blood pumping (That is reserved for Ash vs Sawyer in the semifinals Ash-Greninja Vs Mega Sceptile man that still invigorates me to this day)

        • Maybe they’re saving everything for Ula’ula and Poni but i would have expected at least 1 more capture before leaving Akala & one of Rowlet/Litten to evolve to at least their second stage

          Reply

          • Litten is definitely going to be the focal point of the anime later on, it’s just the formula

            I just want to see Ash and the other catch SOMETHING that has a bit of a impact my hope it’s a Jangmo-o (I will admit that Kiawe’s Marowak was very good but not perfect)

          • Give me Incineroar and i wouldnt even care if Rowlet wont evolve man. And i hope he catches that Wimpod from the treasure isle episode

      • this season is SOOOOO much better than Best Wishes…..Don’t even compare the two! haha The thing about this season is just that it’s different from what we’ve seen before. IT’s not bad. Sure a traditional season in Alola would have been nice, but the episodes have been mostly solid and the characters aren’t crazy annoying. I’d say as a comedy style season it’s actually pretty good. It’s just not as serious as XY was.Which is fine. the pacing could be better, but honestly we really have no idea what they have planned. For all we know they’re rushing him through so he can do something great int he second half with having to rely on the trials as a plot point. We shall see tho

        • Oh i’m not complaining about the quality of the episodes, its absolutely better than BW. Just saying that it kinda annoys me his team is still so small and relatively weak while he already has cleared 2 GT’s

          Reply

          • I’d be willing to bet that once some actual story goes down with Team Skull/AF it’ll pick up with his team. I wouldn’t be surprised if he catches an Alolan form Pokemon somewhere along the way. Maybe a new one from USUM

          • Same here

            I think Passimian has a huge chance to be with Ash cause it just has the Ash feeling to it if it makes sense kinda like Hawlucha, it just had a very Ash type of feel to it

    • it’s clear that they have no real direction for the sm anime and his return to Kanto is just a response to the 20th anniversary movie since it just seems way too out of nowhere. Also it’s only 2 episodes while every other old character return has had a mini arc with it.

      • They’ve actually been hinting towards Lusamine with the reason Lillie is afraid of Pokemon and Gladion refusing to come home Gladion is shown to be hiding Type;Null later on although I can see why it feels like it has no direction.

  17. Since I don’t want to go back to work because those shitheads have been working me like a dog today

    I blow off steam with Fakemon
    Either a Poison/Steel Parasitic Barnacle that eats metal (and Steel Pokemon) or reopening ideas for my Ice/Steel a Moose which I cannot for the life of me think of a name

      • Why I left Miiverse and basically I became a member here

        (I got involved in getting a member of a certain Pokémon clan on Miiverse banned and they raged on me for it, so I left)

        And Oh I know no one here probably get this, but finally DOWN WITH DRAGMA!!!! Long live no more team of A hole’s bossing everyone around!!!

    • I really don’t thin they look bad. The art style in SM is different than the typical style, but I actually really like the new art. I think both Brock and Misty will look good in it. You really can’t get a lot of info from still images of them. especially when it’s just the stagnant art they show to show off what they generally look like.

      • I am ok with SM art ….in some way I like it but they kind missed up with Misty and Broke their characters no longer the same.
