Miiverse comes pre-packaged on all Nintendo OS computers. At setup, you can create a Mii or link it to a Nintendo account, all of which can be changed later.

Nintendo eShop[]

As with more recent Nintendo consoles, the eShop lets you buy games for use on Nintendo OS, with even some exclusive games for Nintendo OS systems.

It behaves similarly to other Internet browsers on Nintendo consoles, except to computer standards where plugins can be installed. Extensions are also supported with programs on the market like adblockers and censorers.

The built-in antivirus software. It scans for viruses, then you can either deal with them normally or play a level of Mario where defeating enemies destroys a virus.
