Nintendo Today! is a news application published by Nintendo that delivers daily updates and information related to Nintendo franchises, software, and systems. It was revealed in the Nintendo Direct broadcast on March 27, 2025, and released shortly after the presentation in North and South America, Europe, and Japan,[7] with releases in Hong Kong, South Korea, and Taiwan planned for later in 2025.[6] The application also serves as a calendar, displaying the current date accompanied by an animation upon launching the application, as well as listing notifications for in-game events and Nintendo Switch Online-related updates and missions. The user can customize the application's theme based on several Nintendo franchises, which affects the date animation, UI elements and colors, and calendar design. A Nintendo Account is required to use the application.
News and other pages take the form of text/visuals or videos, and the content feed can be customized based on the user's favorite series selected when setting up the application, with Super Mario, WarioWare, Donkey Kong, and "Classics" being among them. For each topic, users can assign it one of four ratings: Useful, Funny, Cool, and Cute. The user can also set a widget on their device's home screen that displays a monthly calendar or a simplified content feed.
