The novel Nintend-Doomscrolling-Alternative application has one great function

Published:

Nintendo now has a way to distance itself from toxic social media platforms, which it cannot control using the novel Daily News application called Nintendo Today. While Nintendo today in the current state is not much more than a thinly populated information channel, the application calendar function can make it worth installing.

Four months ago, Nintendo released a Spotify application that only plays Nintendo Music. Properly named Nintendo Music, the application gives Mario and Zelda the creators of the way of controlling how fans listen to the motifs and soundtracks in their games, without the need to rely (or sharing revenues) on the third side.

Nintendo has made a similar traffic with the Nintendo Switch online application, a message and chat platform that serves as an alternative to message transmission platforms, such as Discord – integrated by Sony and Microsoft’s rivals on their consoles. The NSO application contains specific game services (like a nooklink for Animal passage: novel horizons), but the main draw should affect friends online and apply voice chat during online. You know, things that many people would prefer to do on discord.

Nintendo Today is the latest Nintendo attempt to sculpt his own space in which he can send messages directly to his fans. Like his eminent Nintendo Direct presentations, the application seems to be a way to bypass media platforms such as Instagram, Facebook, YouTube and X (previously Twitter), which have become exponentially less pleasant to develop in time.

The company has already used Nintendo today to pass the message. On Friday morning, less than 24 hours after the application was announced, the company placed a 25-second video at the top of the channel, announcing the release date of the film live live based on the legend of Zeldy. The novel images of switch 2 also leaked. Messages also include several time -term walruses, such as the countdown to this week Nintendo Direct: Switch 2 Showcase and several trailers of the latest Nintendo Direct. The channel is a differently inhabited additional down, such as the brief history of the Fire emblem series, orchestral performances of video game music and witty “Pearls of Wisdom” from the beloved Wydra Animal Crossing, Pascal.

Nintendo today’s attempt to break the message is associated with a disadvantage, at least during the premiere. Although he decided to notifications from the application, Nintendo Today did not really inform me about the Friday news about the film Legend of Zelda. Actually, I had to (breath!) Open the application manually In the morning to check what was novel to me. We hope that, like a brief application failure on the second day, these are simply growing pains.

However, today’s Nintendo calendar will probably keep the application installed on my phone. In addition to providing charming daily animations based on the Nintendo series, such as Pikmin, Super Mario and Animal Crossing, there is surprisingly useful information here. The calendar follows past and upcoming events, such as Nintendo Direct Streams and real events, such as the opening of a retail store in San Francisco in Nintendo. He also follows the release dates of games and demonstrations and events in the game. Thanks to the second function, I can now have tabs for upcoming events for Animal passage: novel horizonsassuring that I will never miss a bunny or a fishing tournament.

Nintendo today’s calendar is currently following events in the game for 11 titles, including SPlatoon 3IN Super Smash Bros. UltimateIN Tetris 99AND Mario Kart Tour. As a person with a brief time, which relies on various notifications to inform me about informing and task, I can’t wait to see how well the application can aid me follow real events in the world and virtual. (To be candid, I also expect such things as the dates of release leaking through the application. This will happen).

Like the other applications of clever devices developed by Nintendo, Nintendo Today is a sleek, but emerging tool that does about half of what I would like to do. It is doubtful that Nintendo today will ever achieve the goal, which is fully replacing any of the services such as Facebook, Instagram and X, at least from the perspective of providing messages, but it is decent.
