Will we know when a friend becomes online? lol I still can't believe they didn't fix it, it's so basic, it should have been the first thing they do after launch, I'm seriously amazed by this.

Friends notifications and the ability to turn off party notifications. I don't know how they went an entire gen having friends notifications (even for going offline) for a system that was nigh useless in actually playing with friends and then they go the opposite way.

The calendar is real. Imagine the customization options. Week starts on Monday or on Sunday.

Perhaps, if the stars align and swamp king Dhormamo receives the 12 blessings from the god-kings of the East, firmware 3.0 would allow me to change my goddamn avatar?

Perhaps...

For you.
Community(possibly a miiverse-like thing) and Youtube Broadcasting sounds good, but this doesn't seem like a 3.0 update at all :/

Sounds like we'll be able to create a Neogaf community where you can join, talk and see what people are playing without them being on your friends list? I hope that's right.
