Nintendo releasing mobile app Good idea or a sign of weakness?

[Super_Boom]

Miitomo is a pretty neat app, but I like the rewards feature that goes along with it more honestly. Every day I get a few My Nintendo points, and I've already used those points to get myself Zelda Picross, a 3DS game.

If the app stood on its own, I'm sure I'd be bored by now, and would probably be more concerned. Using a free app to get discounts on console games though? If that's the overall aim, then I welcome more apps like this.
