Update: Full patch can be found after the break.

Nintendo has released the latest firmware update – version 7.0.0-13 – for the 3DS, and it’s a big one.

First, Miiverse is now fully supported on the 3DS. After installing the new firmware, you should see a new icon on the home menu that will allow you to access the online community.

Today’s update also brings about Nintendo Network IDs on the 3DS. Names registered on Wii U can now be used on the 3DS and eShop balances can be combined. Alternatively, a Nintendo Network ID can be created from scratch.

A StreetPass update is also available, though we’re not quite sure what it adds at present.

Nintendo has put out a new Wii U firmware update. Starting now, system owners can download version 4.0.2.

The update is rather small, but nonetheless noteworthy. It essentially improves stability and usability of the console.

Note that you’ll need to download the latest Wii U update in order to access the eShop.
