As part of its recent Nintendo Direct, the gaming titan unveiled an innovative app for iPhone and Android users: Nintendo Today! This app is now available on the App Store, designed to keep you updated on Nintendo news every day. Here are all the details.
Introducing Nintendo Today! – Your Daily Source of Customized Content
With Nintendo Today!, the goal is to serve as your daily resource for all things Nintendo. When you first enter the app, you’re prompted to select your favorite gaming franchises, allowing the app to tailor its content feed to match your tastes.
Once you’ve set it up, the main interface resembles a social media content feed, similar to popular platforms like YouTube.
You can scroll through the app to discover engaging content and tap on anything that piques your interest.
The content available on Nintendo Today! includes videos, gaming tips, image galleries, quizzes, and a variety of fun information pages. According to the app’s release notes:
Stay updated on everything Nintendo! Whether it’s news regarding the Nintendo Switch™ 2 system, information on your favorite characters, or entertaining videos and comic strips—you’ll receive personalized enjoyment every day.
As highlighted in their statement, Nintendo assures that fresh content will be updated daily.
The app allows you to fully customize your experience. Beyond selecting your preferred content, you can also pick a theme based on one of these beloved game franchises:
- Super Mario
- The Legend of Zelda
- Animal Crossing
- Splatoon
- Pikmin
A dedicated calendar feature enables you to keep track of significant Nintendo events, such as upcoming Nintendo Direct presentations or game releases.
Additionally, you can set up an iOS widget to monitor those crucial upcoming dates.
DMN’s Perspective
Nintendo Today! piques my interest quite a bit. The app adopts a social-feed style and applies it to a specific niche: enthusiasts not just of gaming, but specifically of Nintendo. Given the company’s dedicated fan base, I’m eager to see how the reception unfolds.
If Nintendo consistently provides valuable new content every day, it may succeed in drawing the attention of iPhone users away—even if just for a moment—from platforms like TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube.
