Nintendo has launched a new app called Nintendo Today, directly from the creators of Super Mario Bros., designed to deliver the latest Nintendo news to fans more promptly than ever. The app was unveiled by the legendary video game designer Shigeru Miyamoto during the March 2025 Nintendo Direct as a surprise announcement. Available for immediate download on the Apple App Store and Google Play, Nintendo Today is packed with exciting features for avid Nintendo enthusiasts.
This innovative app functions as a comprehensive hub, providing a daily calendar and a continuous stream of news updates. Miyamoto highlighted that following next week's Nintendo Switch 2 Direct, fans can use the Nintendo Today app to stay updated with daily news and developments. The app is designed to keep fans engaged, offering a more immediate and regular flow of information compared to traditional Nintendo Direct broadcasts.
As you engage with the app daily, you'll be greeted by beloved characters from franchises like Mario, Pikmin, and Animal Crossing, making each login a delightful experience. Beyond news, the app will feature Nintendo-themed content, including a Pikmin 4 comic titled "Too Stuck to Pluck" and insightful "Pearls of Wisdom" from Animal Crossing's Pascal.
While Nintendo Today may not be the blockbuster announcement some were hoping for, such as news on Zelda or Super Smash Bros., it offers another valuable channel for fans to connect with the Nintendo universe.
