It Sounds Like Nintendo Wants to Make A Gamer’s Version of Facebook

I haven't been in PS Home in a while but based on what I know of it's improvement over the years this does sound a lot like the basic idea/purpose of Home.

No, it doesn't.

Yea, it does. 

How? Demonstrate it.

Your user created avatars gathering around areas related to games where you can talk about them, talk to your friends, look at each other's profile/gamer cards/etc. and launch group games. The big difference I really see is that you can freely move around in Home, and there's stuff like mini-games houses/apartments/malls/the theatre/etc. The main purpose of Home and this are essentially the same.

Now that I think about it, this is more similar to the Vita's live area where each game and app is an icon you can position anywhere you like. When you select an icon there's an entire page where you can talk about the game with your friends leaving comments and look at each other's progress. 

This = Home + Live Area - Free Roam - Mini games 

That's the impression this gives me. Hmmm.. I don't know much about NintendoLand but I'm guessing that could fill in for the whole "City of mini games" aspect I subtracted.
