This week’s app is Miitomo! Nintendo’s first mobile application available for IOS and Android.

Miitomo starts you off by making a avatar (Mii) to  look like you. There are many options to choose from to create your mii and add your special touch. You can also give your mii a voice that the app will use to read questions and answers.

Miitomo falls in the Social Networking category because you can add your friends and answer various questions asked by the application together and share your opinion. Many of these questions are simple such as “what do you plan on doing this weekend?” to inform friends that also have the application what you are doing this weekend and start conversations.

There is much fun to be had with Miitomo such as being able to take pictures of your mii’s in custom positions for more interesting post.

Miitomo gets a 8.5/10

The pros:

App is easy to use and has straight forward instructions.

Fun for all ages.

The cons:

App crashes occasionally when other users are asking questions.

Miitomo is a big hit for Nintendo’s first mobile application and leaves us wondering, what is to come from Nintendo in the future?
