A small update for Miiverse went live earlier today.

The most notable addition is the ability to filter your activity feed so that only posts from friends are shown. This can be done in the Wii U and web versions of Miiverse.

Additionally, Miiverse on Wii U and 3DS now has the search box for finding users at the top of the activity feed.

Here’s the full update news from Miiverse’s Marty:

Nexis Games has updated their community page with details for an upcoming 3rd party Wii U title named Pilgrim from Disintegration Games.

Here are some of the details we have gathered so far:
– game takes place over a 100 year period
– play through game as multiple characters related through lineage
– main objective is to pave way for future generations
– various RPG elements

Below is an excerpt from the Nexis Games community page;

Pilgrim has various RPG elements that create a solid foundation holding up its unique gameplay. As players level up, they grow in age and increase max health. After a certain level your health caps. The more you increase in age afterwards the lower max health decreases leading to only one inevitability. Death. While growing up is a key objective element in Pilgrim systematically accomplishing goals ideally within key moments before players let opportunities slip away. it will also increasingly work against players challenging them to make the right decisions under multiple circumstances across various amounts of time. Levels equate to generations, and players have a bucket list of objectives to complete in a fixed amount of years, however some generations are allotted different amounts of time. One generation could expect a lifespan of 30 years and another only 15 before natural death sets in. It all depends on the player. Its an interesting balance that adds a deal of strategy and depth enticing multiple ways to experience Pilgrim encouraging players to return to the experience over and over.

Players will combat dangers that impede your ability to survive forcing you to make decisions in the game to better protect your safety but not in traditional formats you might come to expect. In Pilgrim players suffer from health conditions such as heart disease and polio but such inflictions can be prevented if players are properly vaccinated or actively maintain healthy eating habits. Interestingly there is no map directing players and Pilgrim doesn’t have a health bar displayed making things even more challenging forcing players to rely on visual clues and audible expressions to unlock their health status or preserve it by keeping an ear out avoiding a car coming from around corners dangerously.

Though the 3DS version of Smash has been out for some time now, I think it’s funny in a weird Nintendo way that so much effort is being put into censoring the roster for those who decided to wait. Today’s screenshot is a look at one of the secret fighter’s reveal cinematic:
