Nintendo 3DS firmware update version 7.0.0-13 is now available, bringing new features like Nintendo Network IDs and Miiverse to the 3DS.
Once updated, 3DS users can create a Nintendo Network ID, or link one they’ve already made on a Wii U console.
Alongside this Network ID, players can now access and post to the Miiverse from their 3DS systems.
Other less obvious improvements include notifications when games have updates available, a change to the method of activating the 3DS camera and the removal of the 5 System Transfer limit which might bring relief to people who’ve come close to the old limit.
You now also have to hit both L and R buttons to activate the camera, we know that happens a lot!
The regular ‘system stability’ improvements have also been made.
We are currently testing how this firmware update affects region switching to access eShops from other countries, please stay tuned.
Collector's Edition rides on for Switch as well
