I dont think its not releasing in the other countries, its just that most likely you cant receive the goods or physical bonus from the My Nintendo program, or something along those lines.It still sucks though

Edit:And also language translation problems.Though it dosent make sense in some countries, such as Brazil not getting support, since Portugal share the same language and its getting the app.Mostly comes down with the cost x profit of implementing the program in the country

I know Brazil isn't highlighted on the map for MiiTomo, but I read in some other article that it was supported at launch for Nintendo account. So who knows, maybe this is a mistake and MiiTomo is launching in Brazil toghether with Nintendo account, like everywhere else. Other than that, i got nothing.

Hope so.The more markets Nintendo touches on, the bigger the chances of success they will have



My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.

I like this part..

"Kimishima also reiterated that the first goal is to quickly have 100 million people registered with My Nintendo"

Because is not mentioned at all new account system, I assuming that new account system is basically integrated in My Nintendo, actually My Nintendo is new Nintendo account system!?

My Nintendo is the new account system.

3rd February 2016 – Nintendo’s first app made exclusively for smart devices, Miitomo, will launch* in the UK and Ireland in March for both iOS and Android phones and tablets. Today, Nintendo outlined the steps that fans can take to be among the first to get in on the social fun.

Starting 17th February 2016, people in the UK and Ireland will be able to preregister for Miitomo by creating a Nintendo Account using their Nintendo Network ID, social network accounts or email address. People who preregister for Miitomo will be among the first to be notified about the availability of Miitomo when it launches in March.

Miitomo is a social experience that uses Nintendo’s Mii characters to engage friends in a lighthearted, playful and welcoming social setting. Mii characters first debuted on the Wii console and to date, more than 200 million Mii characters have been created around the world. Using Mii characters users will be able to interact with their friends in an entirely new way to spark fun and interesting conversations by answering questions such as, “What song has been stuck in your head lately?”, “Do you believe in aliens?”, or even, “If you saw a nose hair sticking out of your friend’s nose, what would you do?” By answering questions in Miitomo, users will be able to discover surprising information and secrets about their friends, as well as share their experiences with others easily by taking and sharing photos featuring their Mii using the Miifoto feature.

Nintendo’s new My Nintendo** rewards program will launch alongside Miitomo in March 2016, and will be able to connect with Miitomo. A special Miitomo bonus will be offered to anyone in the UK and Ireland that creates a Nintendo Account between 17th February and the launch of Miitomo in March. My Nintendo aims to become much more than a traditional rewards program. It is a more comprehensive service that rewards users for interacting with Nintendo products and services in a variety of ways. Miitomo users with a Nintendo Account will be able to take advantage of My Nintendo to enhance their experience.

Including Miitomo, Nintendo plans to release approximately five smart device applications by the end of March 2017.

More information about Miitomo, Nintendo Account and My Nintendo will be available on https://miitomo.com/ in the coming weeks.

*Miitomo will launch in the following countries in March: the UK, Ireland, France, Belgium, Germany, Austria, Luxembourg, Spain, Italy, the Netherlands, Russia, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, U.S., Canada. Preregistration is only available in these countries.

Miitomo at launch will support the following languages: English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, Russian and Japanese.

Will Miitomo be avalible on 3DS and WiiU? I know it's a mobile app, but there is no reason not to offer the service on regular consoles.

I don't think so, but on NX probably.

It sounds like a cool idea, let's see how it turns out. I'm curious on how My Nintendo will work with games. Maybe if you complete certain achievements you unlock wallpapers and so?



I personally cannot wait to use My Nintendo! Interesting times ahead.

There's not a chance in hell Miitomo is coming out on dedicated gaming platforms. It's coming out on mobile for a reason. That's like saying Snapchat will likely be on NX.

Is Snapchat Nintendo app or a game!? Nintendo will probably wanted that all there apps and games be available on their hardware too.

Also this, “Nintendo’s NX and smartphone games will be a test case for the videogame industry’s trend of trying to merge smart-device games and console-based games,” said Junko Yamamura, an analyst at Nomura Securities.".

I am not saying Nintendo mobile games will certainly be on NX, but there definitely chances for something like that.



Looking forward to seeing more info on this.
