Nintendo to make an app for smartphones 

Nintendo has announced that they will be making an app for smartphones. Although far from releasing its games on the mobile platform like everyone wants, this app will at least let you access the Nintendo store from your mobile device.

 

The Nintendo smartphone app should be similar to the PlayStation and Steam mobile apps, where in it will let log into to your Nintendo Network ID (NNID) and let you purchase games and other content for your Nintendo consoles and access certain other features as well.  


Nintendo has been adamant about not releasing its games on the mobile platform, the way several other console makers, particularly SEGA has done in the past. The company hasn’t been doing very well as of late so it remains to be seen how long it can maintain its stance.
