In Japan, Nintendo is ending repair support for all colors of the very first DS (model number NTR-001). This is because the company is now having difficulty keeping stock of spare parts.
The final date of them receiving NTR-001 DS for repairs is April 30. However, if spare parts run out before that date, Nintendo may not be able to conduct repairs.
Nintendo still has plans to continue repairs of the other DS systems for the time being. This includes the DS Lite (USG-001), DSi (TWL-001), and DSi LL (UTL-001).
The Google Play store has indicated that Miitomo, Nintendo’s first mobile app, has reached one million downloads on Android devices. It’s currently sitting somewhere between one million and five million, the download’s official page confirms.
Miitomo is doing very well on Google Play’s charts thus far. The web version of the service has it placed at the third spot in “Top Free Android Apps”. Additionally, some devices has it as number one on the “Top New Free” and “Top Trending” charts, and number three for the overall “Top Free” chart.
