A new Miitomo update went out last night. For those who haven’t heard about it previously, it introduced a few new features such as the ability to add friends by email.
Unfortunately, we’re now hearing that there’s an issue with this functionality for iOS 9.3 / 9.3.1 users. If you send email invites by selecting “Invite” in the “Add friend” screen, Miitomo crashes.
Nintendo has sent out a notification about the situation and is already working on a fix. We’ll let you know when it goes live.

The homebrew community has found that Citizens of Earth has a homebrew vulnerability on 3DS.
Something similar happened just recently. It was discovered that a homebrew exploit exists within VVVVVV, prompting its removal from the 3DS eShop. Citizens of Earth may end up with a similar fate.
Marvelous is working with Nintendo to include Mario costumes in Story of Seasons: Good Friends of Three Villages. However, that’s not the only collaboration planned for the game. This week’s Famitsu also reveals that a Hamtaro collaboration will be added to the game.
Story of Seasons: Good Friends of Three Villages will feature Hamtaro as one of the available pets. Kurumi Mamiya, the character’s voice actress, will reprise her role. Creator Ritsuko Kawai also signed off on the collaboration.
Aside from that, Famitsu confirms that Dessie and Witchie are being brought back for the game. We also know that a new fairy will appear.
We’ll have the new Story of Seasons: Good Friends of Three Villages scans tomorrow. For now, here’s a sneak peek of Famitsu’s coverage:

EA will make games for NX “if it makes sense” for the publisher to do so, according to executive vice president Patrick Soderlund.
In an interview with with BBC, Soderlund had this to say about supporting the new console:
“I personally and the company are huge fans of Nintendo, they’re the reason why I started making games. We’re in constant communication with them and when they come to market something – and if it makes sense for us – we’ll be there.”
Many remember when EA appeared on stage at Nintendo’s E3 2012 media briefing to announce an “unprecedented partnership” between the two sides. That relationship fizzled out soon after the console’s launch. EA’s final Wii U game was Need for Speed: Most Wanted.
