Nintendo has just released an update for Nintendo Music, with this version being 1.4.0. If you’ve already downloaded the app on mobile, you should be able to update it now.
This update brings a new feature for some of the Animal Crossing: New Horizons tracks, allowing them to be matched to the current time. When you press “play hourly tracks” on one of the designated playlists, it will play a track matching your time until the end of the hour.

New findings indicate Pokemon Friends could be a reskinned puzzle game from 2016
Posted on 1 month ago by Cris-(chito) in Mobile, News, Switch eShop | 0 comments
Pokemon Friends has received a good amount of criticism, which is largely due to its paid elements and overall generic aesthetic. Recently, Youtuber CandyEvie noticed some striking similarities between the core gameplay in Pokemon Friends and another mobile title ThinkThink. Both were developed by Wonderfly, with the latter releasing all the way back in 2016.
After reviewing footage of both games side to side, it is very likely one will assume that some asset flipping may have occurred. Most, if not all of the puzzles playable in Pokemon Friends are also in ThinkThink, with the obvious difference of presentation. It may be possible that The Pokemon Company had simply asked Wonderfy to create a Pokemon version of its already popular game, but this may not be the case as the game isn’t marketed as such at all. In fact ThinkThink is specifically aimed at a very young audience while Pokemon Friends’ marketing material suggests that it’s a game for all ages. While this theory answers why some feel that the game is too generic, it may also recontextualize how some may feel about the title’s pricing.

[Let’s Talk] Do you use Nintendo Today?
Posted on 2 months 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.
