Well then... Super Mario Maker with Miiverse were one of the last reasons for me to use Wii U instead of Switch...

Miiverse was like the one thing that was popular from the Wii and Wii U... it was wise of them to make a complete break, but it really seemed like this would have been an exception no one would have minded. As much as I love my Switch the lack of a Miiverse just makes it feel incomplete.
