So you want to know a little more about the Wii U’s online and chat capabilities, and the now official Nintendo Network ID, right? Well, during today’s Nintendo Direct video, Nintendo president Reggie Fils-Aime walks us through the experience so we know what to expect when we plug that Wii U in and jump online.

In the video, we are introduced to the Miiverse, WaraWara Plaza lobby, and how to use the Wii U Chat to video chat and send messages to friends.
