Nintendo’s first smartphone app for Android and iOS- Miitomo is now available in India

Nintendo’s first smartphone app for Android and iOS- Miitomo is now available in India. India gets this download 8 months after it was first made available the world over.

 In most current day services, a Nintendo Account can be connected to other accounts, such as Nintendo Network ID (given that you have one of using a Wii U or 3D),  Twitter, Facebook, or Google + account. A user can then use those accounts user ID and password to sign in to his/her Nintendo Account.

If you don’t want to use or you don’t have any of the accounts as mentioned above, nothing to fret, you can still make a Nintendo Account by simply using your e-mail address. Having said that, creating a Nintendo Account and signing in one, has encountered several errors. Hopefully, it will be fixed at the earliest.

Apart from this, there is also small download after the initial installation through the app itself, and it works as it should with any of the before mentioned social accounts.

Miitomo’s in-app purchases are in the way of coins by which you can purchase cosmetic articles for your avatar or Mii as is called. The items include costumes, hats, and a host of other things that would customise your Mii. You can also gain coins by finishing in-game tasks. However, if you are going the path of playing for coins, they vary from Rs. 60 for 1,000 coins and Rs. 4,600 for 105,000 coins.

The availability of Miiitomo could possibly be the sign of things to arrive. Lately,  we have noted that while Nintendo’s games and consoles have made its way to India, the company itself has never made an official attendance.

Could this signify India will see the games like Super Mario Run and Nintendo’s other smartphone offers as well? Or does this mean that Nintendo Switch could have an official release soon? Well, we will just have to wait and see what comes in our way
