Satoru Iwata outlined how the Wii U’s account system will work during today’s Japanese Nintendo Direct.

One of the first things you’ll do on the console is make a user account. Up to twelve users with the own Miis can be registered per system.

Once created, you can tie-in game settings, save data, browser bookmarks, and play history to your account.

To get involved with features such as video chat, you’ll need a Nintendo Network ID. This is made up of a username, password, email, date of birth info, and gender. Downloadable purchases made by one Nintendo Network user can be played by other users on the same console.

– On Miiverse, there are game icons with players around each, who are talking about the game
– Line-up of icons on the GamePad; can switch between this and Miiverse
– You find out what other players are playing at powerup
– Channel-like UI

Scooby Doo characters aren’t really in Scribblenauts Unlimited. Neither are Mortal Kombat or Batman characters. But by using the game’s object creator, you can bring them all to the Wii U (and PC) version.

Screenshots of the object creator-made Warner Bros. characters can be found above.

Nintendo of Japan will be broadcasting a special Nintendo Direct presentation tomorrow at 8 PM JST / 6 AM ET / 3 AM PT (that’s a bit less than 11 hours from now). It sure is short notice, but it looks like we’ll finally be getting some information on the Wii U’s operating system and Miiverse. Considering that some news outlets have already got their hands on the console, this news is long overdue.

As usual the presentation will be streaming online and we’ll embed the stream before it goes live.
