Frankly, the O3DS is already at its limits with the current Miiverse.
One of the screenshots clearly shows the game community being shown with 3DS layout.
This is cool, I expected such a news at E3.

News at E3? Nonsense, everyone knows that's for Muppets, 10-minute-long developer interviews, and games already shown for the past 2 years.
The "I download a fucking app for every web page like a tool" one?
Nintendo announced welll in advance and even in the digital event itself that they'd be focusing on games coming out by the end of this year at E3. I don't see what the huge problem is. They do directs every few months which means we get news closer to games releases and it means less waiting around for stuff.
People are being upset by A LOT of GREAT, E3-worthy news being shown before Digital Event and right after Digital Event, while the Digital Event was filled with old and/or lackluster news.
No, I don't know much about native apps. Since Miiverse is web based even on consoles, I guess a native app on phones wouldn't change much.Either this is a joke or you don't understand all the pros of having a native app over a freaking website. Not only are there design differences, but many practical differences and a different set of tools that can be used. Browser apps are barely used anymore. Facebook used to use it many years ago (when they believed in HTML5), but got a massive backlash and tons of negative reviews and switched to native.
Ninty is so outdated as usual.
Lol, "web app". What century is this?
Can we ban comments like these?Either this is a joke or you don't understand all the pros of having a native app over a freaking website.

Surely if it's GREAT news then it doesn't matter when it's announced. You're still getting the information and the news is still being reported on. The digital event isn't a stage conference and it allows them to be a bit more imaginative. I think I must be the only person in the world who actually enjoys listening to the dev storys haha.
I don't care if something gets announced at E3 or not that I want as long as it eventually gets announced when it's ready and I can eventually get it. Maybe I'm weird. The best part of E3 was the treehouse stream again anyways.
It's much easier to maintain. You don't have to fix multiple different versions every time you change something. It also ensures that it runs on every OS. I also don't think Nintendo has the resources to maintain 3 mobile apps, they'd probably ignore Windows Phone and piss some users off.

MiiVerse has been native HTML5 from the get go (when browsed from the web). The Wii does have special privilages like posting screenshots directly (which can also be done to any image hosting website via the wbe browser), but the app in question is more like the drawing utility on the Miiverse, which, as far as I know, is exclusive to the Wii U and 3DS.
I don't know if you're completely familiar with the Miiverse, but people are also able to make handdrawn posts as well. Should the entire Miiverse run off the web, people will be able to do textposting, but handwritten drawings wouldn't be possible unless there was some sort of java-based oekaki app, and even then it isn't quite effeicient to have the app on phones/PC due to input (would require some sort of stylus input).I've read your post several times to tell you the truth I don't understand what you're trying to say. The HTML5 part is irrelevant, and I don't get your point with the screenshot thing either. And what app? The Wii U & 3DS application?

The console versions also run over HTML5. Check the last page of the Miiverse manual.I think the only time they'd think of having a web app is if they want to allow users to also make drawing posts as well, but I guess with this redesign they are going to integrate the audiences who use browser/web app from those who are using their hardware.
I think the drawing feature will still be regulated to Ninty hardware, for obvious reasons.

Them putting more money into this means it's here to stay for NX. I'm OK with this.
Album is pretty cool. You could do a work around option by starting a post and replying to it with more screenshots but due to the quality of screenshots I stuck to using the browser and uploading them to an image host.
Also the main female Mii mascot for Miiverse needs a name. How about 'Miilyssa'?
Also:
After the redesign, the limitations on posting quickly in succession will become less strict. You'll be able to post a combined total of 30 posts or comments per day. (In-game posts will not be included in this total.)
That's less strict? I'm sure all the kids who use Miiverse as a chatbox are gonna be pretty upset.
I just realized she looks a lot like Nikki (of SwapNote fame)
Still looks like something out of the 90s, lol. But I suppose anything else would look out of place with the dated OS design aesthetics.

Looks good except for the no drawing in discussions part. That sucks.
Makes no sense. An illustration along with a screenshot can be really effective to help someone with a game e.g. pointing out where a secret coin in Mario. And not being able to illustrate an achievement, which was one of the original reasons for drawings in the first place, is so so silly. Already tweeted about it and will post on Miiverse when I get back home since this is one area I really think they need to reconsider. I don't use Miiverse too much thus this change will literally affect the only thing I do with it! The note stating "Please note that features may be changed." gives me hope that things are not final.
As far as I understand it, ingame-posts (and thusly screenshots) get automatically posted to the journal category, and handwritten posts automatically to "drawings". You don't select the section, the sections select you.The note stating "Please note that features may be changed." gives me hope that things are not final.
