Nintendo’s MiiVerse is something of a social network, displaying messages and other items from your friends represented as Mii avatars. Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime touts MiiVerse, which will be available from mobile very soon, as the console’s killer app.

“As the network grows and the installed base grows, it will prove to be a true killer application for the system, and I say this loving what we have done with Nintendo TVii and loving all the games,” said Fils-Aime. “Until you try it and experience it, you may not totally understand it.”

“People have to leave the current paradigm behind to understand what we are trying to do,” he added. “Miiverse is going to be embedded right on the game platform, so literally some of the activity will be able to happen immediately as people experience it.”
