Yes that was the whole point of introducing NNIDs on 3DS.

Yes. Took me hours to update.
I've been getting the same thing
No Gunman Clive community
Not that I was expecting it, but it would be neat
i'm guessing communities for smaller games will come eventually. no reason not to other than.. server load? so yeah

A few questions, sorry if they've been asked before:
1. What are some interesting people to follow? Is there a list of NNIDs of developers and journalists somewhere?
2. I thought there was supposed to be a community for every game, not just nintendo games. Or is that only on Wii U? Where's my Virtue's Last Reward discussion community?
3. Is suspending a game the only way to include a screenshot in a post? Or is there a way to save (multiple) screenshots independent from miiverse, and then include them in miiverse posts whenever I want later.
Thanks in advance!

1 - I want to know that too!
2 - Nintendo said more communities will eventually come for already releasead games;
3 - Yes, it is the only way / No, there isn't.

Ok, this is dangerous business so you would want to contact Nintendo directly in the future to make 100% double plus sure before doing such a thing. But here's something from their support page regarding clearing all users and settings from a Wii U, and restoring factory defaults:
- Any linked Nintendo Network IDs will not be deleted when deleting users. The Nintendo Network IDs that were being used before deleting all content and settings can be reused by linking them to new Wii U users.
- Any Nintendo Network IDs that were linked to Wii U users on the console cannot be used on other Wii U consoles.
- Your Nintendo eShop purchase history and balance are saved to your Nintendo Network ID. If you link an ID you were using with Nintendo eShop to a new user after deleting all content and settings, you will be able to redownload your purchased software free of charge.
It seems if you clear settings and users - the actual Miis - it does not delete your NNID account. Your NNID account must be purposefully deleted using a different option. You could re-link it to that Wii U again and attach it to a newly created Mii. Obviously the NNID is still locked to that Wii U system, so to use it on a new system later you'd have to call Nintendo and get them to switch it.
But it looks like you *could* get rid of the Wii U after formatting, and as long as a new owner didn't have your NNID login email and password, they could not link it to their new user account on the system.
There's also a warning in the 3DS support section that deleting a NNID from a Wii U will delete it from a 3DS it is linked to as well. In other words, deleting just the NNID from the Wii U to try and clear the system is not what you want to do. You just want want revert the system to factory settings without ever touching the "delete Nintendo Network account" setting.
Yes...this infuriated my about the 3DS. This alone make the update worth it.

I for one will not be able to use my 3DS until they make L+R+X+Y+START+SELECT+TOUCHSCREEN activate the camera. Otherwise I can't even look at the system without activating it.

I did almost every time I touched my 3DS :s
Nope. I wasn't aware of the problem until this thread.

Thanks for the info! Man, what an ordeal, why can't they just have a regular account system.
Anyone else having trouble accessing the eshop after updating? I updated fine, can use miiverse fine, but when I go to the eshop it times out every time. It loads for a bit, shows the popup saying it's logging into my nnid, then loads some more and pops up an error message: code 007-2100.
Been doing that since last night. I've restarted multiple times like it suggests, but it's not helping.

I've had it a couple of times, it's really handy that they added this.

To be fair, this isn't much different from clearing and formatting any game console without deleting your network / platform account.
The only difference here is they still don't let the end user log into a site and manage their own device activations and deactivations. For what it's worth the ability to use your NNID online and make purchases from a website appears to be coming. The purchases would automatically download to a Wii U or 3DS if they've got Spotpass turned on.
At that stage it would be a good opportunity for Nintendo to put full account management on the site you log into. They are aware people want this (for better or worse). So we'll see.

I imagine it needs the eShop to be up to download.
Haha wow, thanks for that. It didn't even occur to me it could be on their end.

1) It's worth saying, Miiverse isn't exactly like twitter where every joe can just get away with making witty short messages. It depends entirely on people actually being active (and a lot of Miiverse users have busts of activity then breaks) So following that one journo who makes really cool tweets does not entirely translate to a Miiverse they use a lot. There is also a limit on how many people can follow you (1000 followers, 100 friends)
It also depends on what your hoping to get out of Miiverse, some people like to natter, others love to doodle. I personally like to follow other artists because I like to see peoples work, but that might not ring true for everyone
Generally Sakurai makes a daily post in the smash community with an "image of the day" thing from Smash, devs can also post in their own game communities too, though mostly it's for patch reports or announcing dlc ect.
2) Nintendo did state that many games would be without a community at launch. The current 3DS Miiverse line up pretty much consists of the most popular retail titles of all time for the system and recent releases. There's nothing to stop Nintendo retroactively adding communities, as pretty sure they did this for a few Wii U games, but generally the rule of thumb should theoretically be that every retail and e-shop release from now on will certainly have communities from release day.
Generally a good way to gauge opinion and get Nintendo's attention is to complain on Miiverse. They may add older games anyway, but generally making a small fuss does seem to get their attention
3) Presently yes it seems if you want to post images from your games, you gotta suspend. Unlike sendnote you can't just take a snap of your game and then choose the image later. This seems to be a preventative measure to avoid the problems swapnote had
My fingers are too long so with the way I hold it it has to be near the top otherwise I constantly knock the volume slider. So it's either that or bordering on hitting L all of the time.
Yes there is an update to it as well.

Yup, it's dead on 3DS and Wii U now.

Are you sure of that? Counter doesn't show “/1000” and at least approved users can have more than 1000, see Marty with 10,000+ followers.
Edit: here is an unapproved user with more than 1,000 followers

lol how the hell do you know what with the eshop being down?

Oh I stand corrected, it's how many people you personally follow that's limited it seems. Thought it was the same for both unless one of the updates removed that as a limit heh.

So if you have created an NNID on your Wii U, you can activate it on your 3DS from now on.
I guess, if you create an NNID on your 3DS and get a Wii U later you can do the same thing the other way round? I just wanted to make sure, because my brother will get a Wii U as a christmas surprise.

It did.
Some people have been able to access eShop before/during the outage.

Because the eShop is down. There's no way to check.

Yeah, I found this to be the case when I added some folks that I liked (like the people at Giant Bomb) and saw that most of them haven't posted since around the Wii U launch. Have you got any recommendations for artists?
