'''Miiverse''' was the [[Wii U]]'s and [[3DS]]'s social network, that could be used to communicate and comment on most games and software for the systems. Users could follow and befriend other users, "Yeah" (like), and flag comments. Miiverse was discontinued on November 8, 2017.

Miiverse featured a community originally named '''''Super Smash Bros.'' Series Community''', now a community specifically for {{forwiiu}} and {{for3ds}}, where users could discuss the ''Super Smash Bros.'' games, and post drawings and screenshots. There was a related Announcement Community, known as the '''Director's Room''', where [[Masahiro Sakurai]] used to post daily screenshots of ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', and provide short captions with them, and which was later used for Photo Challenges.

Although Miiverse was integrated as part of the 3DS Home Menu, playing {{for3ds}} prevented access to Miiverse and the Internet Browser due to RAM restrictions, unless the player is using a New Nintendo 3DS or a New Nintendo 3DS XL. However, as of [[List of updates (SSB4-3DS)|version 1.0.5]], users with the original model Nintendo 3DS could post [[snapshot]]s to Miiverse via the in-game Share menu. This function posted to a special community, the Snapshot Sharing Community. The Wii U version automatically uploaded shared screenshots to the Snapshot Sharing Community, shared [[custom stage]]s to the Stage Sharing Community, and [[replay]]s uploaded on [[YouTube]] to the Replay Viewing Community. All of these communities cannot be posted in by normal means, although they freely allowed comments on existing posts.
