[Let’s Talk] Do you use Nintendo Today?
Posted on 2 days ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Let's Talk, Mobile | 0 comments
Earlier in the year, Nintendo Today was announced and released. This is Nintendo’s own app intended to keep fans in the know about various happenings with the company. More recently, some pretty important news has even be shared there before it’s delivered elsewhere. We’ve seen things like Nintendo Directs announced there first, and this week, that’s where the “Close to You” videos debuted.
Nintendo is clearly trying to do what it can to incentivize fans to check out the Nintendo Today app. In fact, the second “Close to You” video has still yet to appear on Nintendo’s own YouTube channels (though we did upload it here). Still, it seems like there hasn’t been a whole lot of interest in the app.
So what are your thoughts on Nintendo Today? Have you downloaded it / used it at all? Let us know in the comments.
