Did they confirm they won't have TW and FB or they are not confirmed yet because those will be useful to many people as apps.

No problem, and if you don't mind me asking why didn't your friend believe it?.

[Andres]

he is kinda ignorant when it comes to info on New Systems. When the 3DS was about to come out, i told him it was in 3D, had 3 cameras and it can play 3DS and DS games, but he didn't me believe at all and until i got the system, then he believe me all the way and was like you were right man. He is pretty much a doubter unfortunately... =/

Yeah I never understood it when people didn't think that there was 3D on a 3Ds.

[Alianjaro]

Because they don't want them to get in the the way the Miiverse. Which is Nintendo's version of a new social network. And also if your buying a video game console just based on the fact that it has Facebook then I think you may need to go see your doctor and get your medicine checked.

I agree, but as long as Nintendo sells its console, it won't care if it's just for Facebook.

Tons of great news! .

In-game access to the browser is a great idea! This way people could go look for cheats and walkthroughs without quitting the game or having a computer near them!

[Andres]

Yeah I never understood it when people didn't think that there was 3D on a 3Ds.

Exactly dude lol.

Yeah I know people like that.

[009soulmaster]

How did no one thought of using the browser for FB or Twitter. *Facepalm*

[gregoryorizal]

Did they confirm they won't have TW and FB or they are not confirmed yet because those will be useful to many people as apps.

Yes, I remember the reason being that they want to provide a social network were you can interact with other gamers that play the same games as you, because on other social networks and forums people will sometimes talk about a game with out having ever really played it

[Andres]

Yeah Reggie said MiiVerse is a Social Network where gamers talk only about games with each other, in other words a Gaming Network. He said there is no point in having Twitter or Facebook in MiiVerse, since you can find those Social Websites on Mobile, Tablets and PC Today.

[Jelloman]

the things that aren't included are small things, the friend code is good how there changing it, facebook and twitter can be done though the internet on the online part of the wii u also we where expecting no multi touch

[CaptainFalco311]

This happened Friday? How the heck did I miss this? But on a serious note, it's funny that not only is there a "porn curtain" mode, but there is also a private browsing mode. But anyway, this is pretty great news!

The web browser will be great, watching my anime on the big screen...

I really hope it is fast, not like the Wii web browser. Imagine having the keyboard on the Game Pad while the screen displays the website... Full of awesomeness.

If Nintendo does it right, this will be a feature I will frequently use.

The only problem is that I have never seen a web browser on something other than a computer that had an efficient, and capable web browser. This usually is due Nintendo to the fact that they are web browsers adapted for the device instead of being built for the device. I don't know that Nintendo can do this. But that is just my inner skeptic talking, this is all great news and I am so excited for Nintendo entering the online world with their laser guns/master swords blazing.
