When you boot up Wii U, you can see a series of icons representing games and users’ Miis milling about around each title. Some Miis’ messages will also be highlighted for the world to see. Now, you might be wondering, how is the content selected?
According to Nintendo, the most discussed topics in Miiverse are selected. But it’s not an automatic process – each selection is screened and filtered before being approved.
“The most discussed topics in Miiverse – e.g. specific games, applications, boss battles, user accomplishments, etc. – will be displayed on Wii U’s main menu. Before that content is posted to the main menu it will be screened and filtered to ensure that it is appropriate for everyone.”
