Nintendo has unveiled a fresh app, Nintendo Today, designed to deliver Nintendo news straight to fans in a more immediate way than ever before. The announcement came from none other than video game legend Shigeru Miyamoto, who revealed the app as a surprise during the March 2025 Nintendo Direct. Available for immediate download on both the Apple App Store and Google Play, this app is set to become an essential tool for avid Nintendo enthusiasts.
Nintendo Today acts as a comprehensive hub, serving up a daily calendar and a steady stream of news, ensuring players stay informed as events unfold. Miyamoto highlighted that following the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 Direct, users can log into the app to access all related updates, with fresh news being posted on a daily basis.
Unlike traditional Nintendo Directs, Nintendo Today offers a more direct line of communication, keeping fans engaged with regular updates even outside of major announcements. Users will be greeted daily by beloved characters from franchises like Mario, Pikmin, and Animal Crossing. The app will not only provide news but also feature Nintendo-themed content, such as the Pikmin 4 comic "Too Stuck to Pluck" and "Pearls of Wisdom" from Animal Crossing's Pascal.
While Nintendo Today may not be the major reveal like a new Zelda or Super Smash Bros. game that many fans were hoping for, it represents a valuable new platform for staying connected with the world of Nintendo.
