I was going to add friends to my system but I accidentally clicked on Miiverse instead of friends list. Miiverse just sat there on the title screen and didn't seem like it was doing anything. I remember people saying it wasn't really working lately or something. I had to pull the power to my system just to get it unfrozen.

Same happened to me 3 times but with NSMBU.  The game will lock up at the pre title screen and would not move.  Holding down the power button on the console doesnt work (which i find disturbing) and had to unplug from the outlet.

Ill have a final tally of my experience so far in the first 24 hours later on today.  Will put it out there its more negativies than positives.

Yea, I was sitting there holding the power button first on the gamepad (that just turned the gamepad off) then I went to the system but holding it for awhile didn't do anything.  I was like well I guess the only solution is to pull the power cord.  It would be nice that the front power button turns the system off even during a freeze up.
