Nintendo is working on a new update for Miiverse that will be released later this month.
When it goes live, profile pages will be viewable on the web version of Miiverse without the need to log in with a Nintendo Network ID. Registered users will be able to adjust the settings of who can/can’t view their profile. If set to “everyone”, anyone visiting Miiverse will be able to see your profile page – even if they aren’t logged in.
A specific date for the new Miiverse update was not shared. However, it will arrive in mid-November.
amiibo figures will only be able to hold information for one game at a time, Nintendo has confirmed.
That news has been revealed via a notice posted on the Japanese amiibo website. The message states:
“Amiibo can only store data for one read/write compatible game at a time. If you wish to use the data from other read/write compatible software, please erase the data in the ‘Amiibo settings’ section of the Wii U settings menu.”
Keep in mind that amiibo figures with already-stored data can still be used for ready-only games.

Rodea: The Sky Soldier has finally resurfaced. The game, which was first announced for Wii and 3DS in January 2011, is coming out in Japan this spring.
It should come as no surprise that the Wii version of Rodea has been scrapped, and the game is now coming to Wii U (and 3DS still) instead. Interestingly, Famitsu reveals that first print copies of the Wii U version contain the bonus of the Wii version – what this means exactly is currently unclear.
Rodea: The Sky Soldier features huge bosses that are many hundreds times the size of Rodea himself. Famitsu also has a look at three previously mentioned characters.
Square Enix announced that the Final Fantasy Explorers demo will launch in Japan on November 14.
The demo will cover the prologue, and has all the major features from the final game (including 4 player online multiplayer).
It will also have two battles against summons (Iffrit and Shiva), along with some jobs and equipment.
As we announced previously, you can transfer some information to the final game, including Gil (up to 5 000), Crystal Points (up to 2 000 points), items, abilities, and one weapon/piece of equipment from every category.
