As a side note, it seems this update is only available in Japan at the moment. I assume the update will be available overseas soon enough though.
A small update is now available for Wii Street U. One of the more notable additions is the ability to create routes and post them to Miiverse,
Wii Street U update – You can create routes and post these to Miiverse. Diashow with world highlights. Hidden characters everywhere.
