Hit the title of this post to see the official announcement from Nintendo.

“Nintendo: New Friend-List Feature
A new feature has been added to the friend list. You can now join an online friend’s game directly from the friend list. All you need to do is select a friend-list icon in the HOME Menu when there are friends you can join online. This feature is available from system-software version 2.2.0-0U onward. If you have a previous version of the system software, please update your system.”
NOTE: This feature can be used only by players who are registered as a friend and who are playing a supported Nintendo 3DS title.”
