"Nintendo has revealed Miiverse, the online network behind the Wii U. When first powering on the Wii U users will be taken to the Miiverse screen. The screen features friends&amp;#039; Miis congregating around menu icons to show at a glance what they are doing on Wii U - such as which games or system features they are using - according to NeoGAF.  A Twitter-like messaging system will be in place allowing all Wii users to communicate and not just send messages to their friends lists. The example was given of asking for tips in a game, with users able to respond with video messages using the Wii U controller camera. Users can also send messages of pictures and drawings similar to the 3DS Swapnote/Letterbox feature. Messages can also feature a &amp;quot;spoiler&amp;quot; option, to prevent giving game elements away in messages. Miiverse will be compatible with all Wii U games, and Nintendo has said it will not interrupt gameplay.  Miiverse messaging will eventually also be available as a smartphone app, allowing users to keep up with the Miiverse network from android and iOS devices. Nintendo unveiled the Miiverse network during its pre-E3 Wii U presentation. Nintendo&amp;#039;s E3 2012 press conference takes place on Tuesday, June 5 at 5pm BST (11pm EDT). The E3 Expo will take place in Los Angeles from June 4 to June 7. &amp;gt; E3 2012: Digital Spy&amp;#039;s coverage from the world&amp;#039;s biggest gaming expo Watch a video of the Wii U&amp;#039;s E3 2011 reveal below:  "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
