Nintendo has slowly but surely started to pull back the curtain on the Wii U’s online aspects. At E3 2012, we got a first look at Miiverse, an online community of sorts that can be accessed by all users.

Miiverse will be the base of the system’s features and online setup. It acts as the console’s menu, complete with various social features, and will even be extended to laptops, mobile phones, and the 3DS in the future.

Ubisoft sees Miiverse as something that’s “very safe” and “very Nintendo.”

According to EMEA MD Alain Corre:

“We see our consumers are always connected, social is the watch word for all of them. Wii U does that in a very simple way. You turn it on and you are connected straight away, and can chat to friends. But at the same time it’s very safe, it’s very Nintendo. A lot of families will be happy to let their kids play it.”

Corre added that “the protection of the Nintendo environment has a lot of appeal.”
