Latest Miiverse update – “Yeah” changes, embed posts, web User Page update
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, General Nintendo, News, Wii U | 4 Comments
Another update was applied to Miiverse today, which brings about a few changes/additions.
First, the amount of Yeahs have been reduced in the activity feed. You’ll also now see the full post for each Yeah as opposed to just a few words. Also for “Yeahs”, you can prevent them from appearing in the activity feed by applying an option in the Miiverse Settings.
Miiverse now allows users to embed posts as well. Click on “Embed this post” on the web version of Miiverse, and you’ll then be presented with HTML code to add it to a web page.
Last but not least, the web version’s User Page has been updated so that it matches the Wii U and 3DS versions, and includes your favorite handwritten post.
You can find the official update notes from Miiverse’s Marty below.

Aonuma talks the scale of Zelda Wii U, thinks of Kyoto as his base
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 21 Comments
As part of an interview with Zelda producer Eiji Aonuma, MMGN asked how big of an open world we can expect in the new Wii U game. Aonuma responded by saying that he uses Kyoto as his base.
Check out the conversation between the two below:
MMGN: This is the first truly open world in a Zelda game — you showed how Zelda has progressed since the NES in terms of map layout and movement — so in the biggest world yet, how “big” can we expect?
Mr. Aonuma: In terms of the scale of the new Zelda world on Wii U, I always think of Kyoto as my base.
Do you know Kyoto?
Ummm…a little [laughs]
MMGN also asked how the team plans to reward players for exploring the world of Zelda Wii U. Aonuma’s response was interesting, with him noting that it comes down to gaining “acquired experience” that helps you progress further and better reach your goals.
