Nintendo Today is a groundbreaking mobile app developed by Nintendo to deliver gaming news directly to players' fingertips. During the March 2025 Nintendo Direct, legendary game designer Shigeru Miyamoto revealed this innovative platform, now available for download on both iOS and Android devices with exclusive benefits for dedicated fans.
Functioning as a comprehensive Nintendo hub, the app serves as both a news aggregator and interactive calendar, delivering real-time updates straight to users. Miyamoto demonstrated how the app will become essential following next week's Nintendo Switch 2 Direct, with continuous daily updates flowing through the platform.
A More Personal Nintendo Experience
This direct communication channel surpasses traditional Nintendo Direct presentations, keeping fans engaged between major announcements. The app features daily greetings from beloved characters like Mario, Pikmin, and Animal Crossing villagers, creating a more immersive experience.
Beyond standard news updates, Nintendo Today offers exclusive content like the "Too Stuck to Pluck" Pikmin 4 comic series and philosophical musings from Animal Crossing's wise otter Pascal. While not the Zelda or Super Smash Bros. reveals some fans anticipated, this new platform establishes a dedicated space for ongoing Nintendo content.
