Nintendo’s new reward program set to replace the recently shut down Club Nintendo, My Nintendo, has launched in Japan with the release of Nintendo’s first mobile game, Miitomo. On March 17th, those with smartphones in Japan could download the social app Miitomo and begin earning reward points for completing challenges such as “Change your Mii’s clothes once a day (daily)” and “Get 5 comments on your answers daily.”
For those unfamiliar, Miitomo allows you to create a Mii and interact with your friends. You can earn (or pay for) outfits, take photos in the aptly named Miifoto, and ask and respond to your friends questions. In the app, you can unlock Platinum points by completing said missions or certain activities such as linking your Twitter account to your Nintendo Account, and you can earn Gold Points by spending real money on games or DLC. You can find a list of available missions below;
With these points, you can redeem them for various types of digital rewards, including games, discounts, Nintendo 3DS themes, and Miitomo items. Courtesy of Siliconera, here is the list of the current rewards you can strive for;
