Bill Trinen – more to come for Miitomo, future of Nintendo on mobile, possibility of physical My Nintendo rewards

Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 11 Comments

IGN recently had the opportunity to speak with Nintendo’s Bill Trinen about Miitomo, Nintendo’s future on mobile, and My Nintendo.

First, here’s what Trinen had to say about Miitomo and keeping the app updated going forward:

“Our development team is looking at it very much as just the initial release. They do have plans to continue to update. They’ll probably start by looking at how people are playing with Miitomo and how they’re interacting with it. But I think they’re looking at a couple of different ways that Miitomo will grow over time.”
“Certainly some of the updates are the addition of new outfits or new versions of the Miitomo drop mini-game, which you play using game tickets. You can even see, on the simpler side, updates to the questions you’re asked. But I also think they’re going to be looking longer term at the opportunity to do bigger updates that might add in new features and expand the experience.”

Here’s how to get 10 Platinum Points on My Nintendo via a “secret mission”

Posted on 8 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in General Nintendo, News | 17 Comments

My Nintendo has a variety of ways to earn Platinum Points – playing Miitomo especially can earn you some points pretty quickly. Still, there’s a way to get 10 Platinum Points on the website itself – scroll down to the bottom of the site and click on the block in the bottom right corner. Then just keep clicking on your Mii to earn 10 Platinum Points! It’s pretty much just a drop in the bucket in the grand scheme of things, but it’s a cute little easter egg nonetheless.

Miitomo, My Nintendo confirmed for March 31 launch in North America and Europe

Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Mobile, News | 62 Comments

Miitomo and My Nintendo will officially launch this week in North America and Europe, Nintendo has announced. Nintendo’s debut mobile app for iOS and Android, as well as the new rewards program, is set for March 31 outside of Japan.

By preregistering for Miitomo with a Nintendo Account before March 31, you’ll receive an email when the app is ready to download. Those who go through this simple process will be rewarded with Platinum Points on My Nintendo.

Regarding My Nintendo, users can redeem Platinum and Gold Points for rewards that include games, download content, in-app items and eShop discount coupons. Platinum Points can be obtained by interacting with Nintendo apps and services like Miitomo. Gold Points are handed out after digital versions of games are purchased from Nintendo.com or the eShop.

In Europe, users who sign up for a Nintendo Account by the end of April will be able to download Flipnote Studio 3D for free. The download can be claimed by linking a Nintendo Account to the Nintendo Network ID used on a 3DS. The download option on the Flipnote Studio 3D page will then be available between March 31 and April 30.

It’s also worth noting that Nintendo will be bringing out an enhanced Wii U and 3DS shop on Nintendo.com and Nintendo of Europe site on March 31 for users with a Nintendo Account to purchase digital games. It’ll have over 2,000 games that can be accessed on personal computers or smart devices. All purchases can be sent directly to a 3DS or Wii U for download. Additionally, it will be possible to “easily find and purchase games that are new, popular and on sale, as well as use filters to search by genre.”

Head past the break for today’s full announcement.

Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 14 Comments

It was only a few days ago that we received word about Miitomo, Nintendo’s first mobile application, releasing on March 17 in Japan. Interestingly, My Nintendo will also begin service on this day. eShop purchases (aside from tickets, DLC, and 3DS themes) will be eligible.

It’s still unclear when Miitomo and My Nintendo will be launching in the west. This should be taking place before the end of the month, however.
