Miitomo - Nintendo's First Smartphone Game

Even though you don't seem to do a whole lot but answer questions/dress your mii/take photos in this it's oddly addictive.

It's an odd one. It's definitely inspired by Tomodachi Life, but without the spontaneity of that game. I did make a picture of my Mii being haunted by a demonic face, so there's that, at least.

I've just tweeted a picture of Mii winking (yes, winking) at the beach, with the hilarious caption "Sand in me eye!". It remains to be seen whether it's got legs or not but there's fun in the short term, for sure.

I'm not really sure what it is yet but as a little stupid thing tied to my Nintendo account, it can't go all that wrong, really.

I just want a 1000 platinum that I can get that Zelda Picross which surely would go into a ZeroJones Top 3 Zelda Spin-Offs.

Got to play it first.

Just added one BallyZero to my friends list! Jay, get a move on and hook it up to yer Facebook...

Miifoto is the best thing about the app.

Can only agree with that! The sheer potential for Internet silliness is mind-blowing. It took me a while to realise that you can put your Mii on the pictures already in your phone... let the games begin!

Glad you two are enjoying it. Me, I can see myself grabbing Twilight Picross and then barely touching it ever again.

I can definitely see me doing the same after hitting 1000 plat points, hopefully future apps are a bit more game-y in nature so they keep you coming back more often & for longer.

(I'm thinking have them be like some of the streepass games on 3ds)

The way I see it is it gives you free points for answering a few questions so I'll stick with it, got Picross now but I'll keep an eye out for any other new items. Wario Ware Touched is available for 1000 Platinum Points too, for the 3DS as well.

How have you hit 1000 pts already?

You can combine your platinum points and Miitomo points, something I'm starting to think nobody else has noticed.

I think I've done that as when I hit the icon tab you use to sign out on my Nintendo it says I have 465 plat pts.

Agreed with that. I'd shell out for Puzzle or Mansion on my 'phone.

No to Puzzle, yes to Mansion, HELL YES to StreetPass Quest III*.

*Or whatever it would be called on a mobile: Mii Quest, maybe?

Got Zelda Picross, now that's me done with miitomo in till something good goes on My Nintendo which needs Platinum points.

There seems to be no love for Warioware touched, I honestly don't know which I'll be getting when I hit 1k.

WWT! was a good laugh. Worth picking up if you've never played it before, definitely. I just played it a while ago, whereas Twilight Picross is (a) picross and (b) new.

From the description of Twilight picross it just seems a bit slight whereas I know WWT has a good amount of content.

WarioWare: Touched! is still one of my favourite DS games, and I really enjoyed returning to it on Wii U Virtual Console last year...but at the same time it's just five quid for the original game in CEX. I'd probably go for Zelda, even though it's (a) picross and (b) picross.

There are 45 ordinary puzzles in Twilight Picross, along with one Micross puzzle and 45 Mega Picrosses (though there are some puzzles common to the Picross and Mega Picross sections). It is a bit slight compared to, well, any other Picross game. I've never played WarioWare: Touched! to compare them, mind.

Always wary with adding apps to my Facebook - there's a lot of personal info there, y'know? Twitter is just me spraffing on about games and wrestling.

Each to their own. Facebook doesn't have a lot of stuff I don't mind sharing. However, I don't want to imagine the Twitter fallout from failing to follow someone. Especially in the hyper-sensitive writing universe.

So I don't follow anyone bar "celebrities" and organisations. Easier that way.
