Nintendo has been a bit more focused on mobile apps in recent years, having released the likes of Nintendo Today! and Nintendo Music (not to mention games like Fire Emblem Shadows). Its latest one is Nintendo Store, which is out now on iOS and Android. This is a reimagining of the My Nintendo app the company debuted in Japan in 2020.
You can use the app to browse consoles, physical and digital games, accessories and merch. To complete a purchase, you’ll need to tap through to the product page on an in-app browser.
Nintendo says the app will keep you up-to-date on news about games, events and more. It can notify you when items on your wishlist go on sale too. If you go to a physical Nintendo store or event, you can use the app to check in and receive rewards.
There’s another intriguing feature here: a way to view your play time for any game across Nintendo’s last few consoles, including the 3DS and Wii U. You’ll have to link your Nintendo Network ID to your Nintendo Account to see your Wii U and 3DS data, but play activity on those systems after February 2020 isn’t factored in.
