Miiverse is often evolving, rather like your hardy Pokémon or the swag on Reggie Fils-Aime's desk, and its web-based setup means that Nintendo can make small changes without any effort required from us, the gamers.
The social platform has had another minor tweak, with Nintendo of Europe's Marty — but, oddly, not the North American equivalent we were checking — announcing the following basic updates earlier today; we can all play spot the typo, too (goodness knows you play that game with our writing!)
Not exactly an update to blow our minds, but filtering the occasionally over-burdened Activity Feed with friend's posts will be welcome. It's not an option on 3DS as, alas, the otherwise-awesome portable is still rocking friend codes and a generally clunky setup in that area.
So, enjoy that filtering and the search bar's new location, what wacky update will come next?

I thought the Activity Feed only showed our Friends before? Or I guess this would eliminate people we just follow then?
I have an idea. Why don't they make an update were you can import the people you follow Twitter on Miiverse? And how about Facebook friends to Miiverse Friends? Meh, it's stupid, but genius.
@XCWarrior I was just thinking the same thing. I guess now it filters out people you 'Follow' but aren't 'Friends' with.
Can I find somewhere a QR Code for the female Mii that shows in the middle in that picture? Thanks in advance.
And nice update, I like seeing my friends' posts.
"...its friend system is a bit pants"
Say what?
"Its friend system is a bit pants"? Um?
What kind of pants are we talking about?
All we need now is a filter to remove posts that people are Yeah'ing from the Activity Feed. It's something that I'd really love imo.
Funny how Ninty still hasn't gotten around to doing a full overhaul of the 3DS's OS. Hopefully they'll do that when the day that Nintendo Network catches up with the rest of the industry. It'll probably take another 3 years for that to happen, when their next generation machines take the stage.
@sinalefa Tried my best on recreating it, you can edit it if you think it needs some changes.
@Iggly
I will try it as soon as I get home from work today. I did not want anyone to go through the hassle of creating it from scratch, but I do appreciate your time and your kindness. Thanks a lot!!
"Friends Only". --> "Friends Only*."*
Did I get it right? What prize do I win?
EDIT: Did I miss the memo that formatting doesn't work in comments anymore? By how many years?
@sinalefa It's no big deal since I wanted to get a Mii of it too, but couldn't find any QR Codes of it online.
@Mariofan064
Not genius. I and many others would find that aggrevating.
@sinalefa, @Iggly
In the current Nintendo Force magazine they did a small feature that includes a QR Code of Nikki (I think it is like an official type one) so that you can use her in Super Smash Bros... I could take a picture of it and send it to both of you if you wanted it, I know you said you made one Iggly but I'm just offering if y'all wanted this one too... Just let me know
@mcusc5435
Nikki is the one from Swapnote, right? I think I have the Japanese version on my 3DS, but if it is not a lot of work for you, I would not mind having her on my Wii U, where Smash will be primarily played.
@sinalefa
Yeah she is the one from Swapnote and it's no problem at all... I'll just take a close up picture of it, but if I take it and post it here in the comment section will you be able to view it or should I just send it to your email?
Typo=Miivese!!! Haha
@mcusc5435 I already have a Nikki Mii, but thanks for your offer. I just didn't have a Mii of the Miiverse Girl as there wasn't any QR Codes of it online, so I just decided to make one myself.
Eh, this isn't much of a change for me, since I rarely check the activity feed in the first place. Whenever I do, it's usually for people with awesome drawings that post. Can't miss those!
@Nareva Maybe that phrase is "a bit pants" is too British. It can mean "a bit poopy", if that's clearer
@ThomasBW84 I lived in London for two years and never heard that one. I figured it was something along those lines. I like it. I'll try it out here and see how it fares.
yeah of course they don't add this to 3DS.
@mcusc5435
Please post it here so other people can get it too.
@Iggly
I have to admit that you did a great job with that Mii. Thanks again!!
Whatever "A bit pants" means...
@sinalefa Thanks, it means a lot to me.
@Iggly
Oh my bad, I just took a quick glance of that headline picture earlier and thought it was Nikki but now I realize it's a different Mii Haha
@sinalefa
Okay I'll try to post it as soon as I can!
I don't really get that.
Except for posts from friends the only other ones i really see there are these from people i'm following. And you'd think i chose to do so for some reason or another.
Anyway, it's just an option so i ain't complainin'.
What really pees me off is how the different versions don't seem to have any real effect on each other though.
When i've already read the notifications that have nothing to do with friend requests in the browser, Wii U or 3DS version i don't want to see that stinkin' blue dot on any of these freaking systems anymore.
@Nareva Pants in Britain do not equate to pants in the US- we call underwear pants, and what you call pants over there, we tend to call trousers
Consider yourself localised.
Also a bit of a shame that the paid StreetPass Plaza games on the 3DS don't have their own communities.
@Iggly : Me too. I think this is a needed feature, and yeah posts is drowning the thread. Its nice to filter out that "useless info".
@sinalefa
Here is the QR Code for Nikki

Edit: It wouldn't just post the picture, but I followed the link and it went to it so let me know if it works for you
