Miiverse doubles its chattiness

Nintendo increased the character limit for Miiverse posts and comments from 100 to 200 this week. The switch, made "by popular demand," applies to both the Wii U and web versions of the social network. Nintendo also fiddled with the 'popular posts' filter this week, allowing users to now see highly Yeah-ed posts going further back.

The character limit increase may seem a little trivial because Nintendo's social network is still in its infancy, but just imagine if Twitter decided to up its limit from 140 to 280. It would be pandemonium with a capital panda, we tell you.
