<p class="p1"><span class="s1">The game is already available in Japan— that’s how Jeff managed to go <a href="

<span class="s2">confirmed</span> that its first iOS game,
Miitomo, will officially arrive in the US on March 31st. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">The game isn’t exactly bringing over any of Nintendo’s very popular first party franchises to iPhones and iPads, but it does feature known Mii characters and, as we noted <a href="
http://9to5mac.com/2016/03/17/hands-on-miitomo-nintendos-first-ios-game/" target="_blank">in our review[/url], the release feels very much like a Nintendo title:</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">When you first start Miitomo, it’s immediately recognizable as a Nintendo title. It feels like someone took my Nintendo Wii and shrunk it down to fit inside of my iPhone 6s. The music and sound effects, most notably, are of the characteristic Nintendo style. The Miis themselves look just like the Miis on the game-maker’s handheld and home consoles. The writing — witty, with just a hint of corniness thrown in for good measure — is classic Nintendo.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Nintendo noted in its press release today that Miitomo was downloaded over a million times in the first three days after launch in Japan and it also managed to become the #1 most downloaded free app in both the App Store and Google Play. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">While Nintendo didn’t mention other countries by name today, it did say that “several other countries” will receive the title on the 31st alongside users in the US. </span></p>
