Wii U Miiverse Adds Verified User Stalking, Other Features

Nintendo’s latest update for the Wii U and 3DS Miiverse provides users with the ability to stalk the activity feed of verified users. Given that the Miiverse is a web-based platform, users should see the changes immediately without having to download any updates. 

The few changes and improvements being added to the system are so practical that it’s a wonder why they weren’t implemented in the first place. The list of new features is as follows:

1) We've added a community search feature.

Select "Search" on the bottom-right of the Communities screen to search for communities. Just enter a game title (or part of one) in the search field and you'll get a list of all the communities related to that game.

2) You can now see a list of posts by verified users.

Select "Posts from Verified Users" at the top of the Communities screen to display only posts by verified users.

3) You can now see a list of communities for the games you've played.

On the "Favourite Communities" screen, you can now switch between displaying "Favourites" and "Played". Select "Played" to see a list of communities for all the games you've played on the Nintendo 3DS system or Wii U console you're currently using (if they have a Miiverse community).

4) You can now mark a post as containing spoilers even after posting it.

If you forget to tick the Spoilers box when posting, you can now go back and do it later. You can also mark other people's comments on your post as spoilers. Just select the spanner icon on the bottom-right of a post or comment, then select "Set as Spoiler" (the other option is "Delete").

5) You can now attach screenshots when posting to your activity feed.

If a certain game has a community which allows attaching in-game screenshots to your posts, you will also be able to attach screenshots from that game when posting to the activity feed.

The addition of screenshots will certainly add more vibrance to the Activity Feed.
