Nintendo recently released an update for the 3DS that brought the Miiverse to the handheld console as well as unified the 3DS and Wii U eShop accounts.
The little Miiverse icon can now be located in the top row of the bottom 3DS screen which also included a new camera app as well the five-time limit 3DS data transfer being removed, according to Polygon.
Dubbed the 7.0 update, 3DS users can now sign in with their Nintendo Network ID to connect with both the handheld and Wii U. However, according to reports from Verge, gamers seem to be suffering some network connection issues.
3DS launched their YouTube App Dec. 3 for free as part of their recent updates to the handheld. The App may be uploaded from the 3DS eShop in both North America and Europe.
