Similar to the now-discontinued Club Nintendo, points accrued on My Nintendo can be exchanged for an assortment of rewards including coupons for digital products, original physical goods, and more. Nintendo’s first goal for My Nintendo is to quickly reach 100 million users from all over the world.
My Nintendo will launch alongside Nintendo’s first mobile app, Miitomo, in March. You will be able to link a single profile to your 3DS, Wii U, mobile device, and NX in the future, making this a singular entity that joins all hardware facets of Nintendo into a single service.
