Are You a Nintendo Fan? There's an iPhone App For That Now

[MacRumors]

Nintendo today released a new iPhone app that can provide you with daily updates about company news, upcoming game releases, and more.

Nintendo Today! is available in the App Store for the iPhone for free, and it is also available in the Google Play Store for Android.

After signing into your Nintendo Account, you can scroll through a news feed with video clips, images, and other fun content. There is also a calendar tab that lists upcoming Nintendo Direct presentations, game releases, in-game events, and more. The app offers a Home Screen widget that lets you view the calendar at a glance.

The app will also keep customers informed about Nintendo's upcoming Switch 2 launch.

You can personalize the news feed by selecting your favorite Nintendo games, and you can theme the app's design based on popular Nintendo game franchises, like Super Mario, Animal Crossing, The Legend of Zelda, and others.

Let's-a go!

Sigh. Fine, I'll get it.

A Nintendo app that can do everything but let you play Nintendo games?

 

[Joshuaorange]

Any word if they’ll post Luigi Mangione case updates in the app?

Tbh I *might* add a Nintendo calendar to Calendar, for giggles and to follow the Switch 2 roll out. But no way am I getting an app.

Why would you expect this? They have some mobile successes, but they have mostly cut back on mobile/phone game development.

Yay I can't wait to see the launch of 20 more cookie cutter JRPGs

Don’t download it. They’ll use it to collect data and make the stuff you watch and like most more expensive.

Never happening, Nintendo is doing just fine without Apple or Google, and they are about to launch the switch 2.

Switch 2, lets gooooo!

I like the N64 only. No interest in the Switch 1 nor 2. My trend is the low poly games of the N64, and the original controller. If they re-released the physical cartridges, I’d buy more (in fact I’m still buying them, in the 2nd hand market)

I think the comments was just going for irony.

"Are you a Nintendo fan?"

Well, I discovered Nintendo around 1983-1984 with the Game & Watch series, became a huge fan during the NES and SNES eras, but was then turned off by 3D games and franchise overexploitation (Mario this, Mario that…). I'm not a Big N fan anymore but still appreciate the company and its philosophy.

If you like low-poly Nintendo games, try the Super FX games on SNES

Easy way to spot Nintenyearolds, not that it's hard to begin with

If they sold Nintendo games on the AppStore Apple would take 30% of their revenue. By selling their games direct on their own hardware they get to keep all the revenue.

My guess is that they’re probably trying to gradually distance themselves from garbage fire platforms like Twitter.

 

[SanderEvers]

The only news in the world that actually is worth reading is Nintendo news anyway (/s), so.. I'm happy.

But honestly this is just a very clever marketing trick for the Nintendo Switch 2. And I'm all for it

Can't lie I'm pretty excited to see what it's about too. Fingers crossed for a price around 400 to 450.

Another app. Great. We truly have an app for everything. I don't like have thousands of apps on my phone, just bare essentials. But I guess it is nice that there is an app for people who need it.

 

[LightProtector]

Seems a post sponsored by Nintendo. It has nothing to do with Mac rumors…

It's a new iPhone app from the biggest video game company in the world.

It’s okay, I’m sure there is a Fortnite event coming up to tide you over.
