I started having this issue the past couple of days as well. Warawara plaza is all Nintendo Miis and icons, where before we saw who is playing what and so forth. I saw everyones topic and more and more people are having this issue. I decided to call Nintendo to report the issue and see what the deal is. I spoke with 2 reps that didnt even know what the hell was going on and i spoke with a supervisor who was baffled. He said his Wii U was doing the same thing and will investigate and call me back.
While i was waiting for his call back i decided to take matters into my own hands. This is a technical bug issue Nintendo has and may not be really aware about. It seems to be a common issue. There is a way to solve the issue until or if Nintedo fixes the issue with a patch or update.
1. Make sure to have an additional Mii not being used as a user or make a new Mii Character
2. Create a new user on your Wii U
3. Create a new Ninentdo Network ID.
4. After creating the new user go to your old or main profile and delete the user. You will be prompted to select delete USER AND NINTENDO ID or DELETE USER ONLY. Make sure to select DELETE USER ONLY (Not your Nintendo ID)
5. Create a new user by selecting the second option which says Link to existing Nintendo ID
6. Make sure to select all the information you used on your original Nintendo ID.
7. Once you created your NEW original user your menu and notification will be at default settings. Click on notification and when you come back to WaraWara Plaza the issue is fixed and resolved.
Dont worry your online features with your Nintendo ID will still be there including all your game saves, however on Nintendo Land you have to reactive MiiVerse setting and on Mario Bros U you will have to reactivate Spotpass.
After i did all this the supervisor at nintendo called back and said he created a new user and it worked. I explained to him what i did and he took the information and forwared to tech support.
I know this is a pain but its the only solution, unless Nintendo comes out with fix or update.
