Nintendo Store App Launches on iPhone With a Feature Fans Will Love

by

A new Nintendo Store app is now available on the iPhone and iPad, allowing you to browse games, review your play activity across select consoles, and more.

Nintendo Store App
The app lets you browse Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 consoles and accessories, physical and digital games, merchandise, and select other products, but it will direct you to Nintendo's web store if you wish to proceed with a purchase.

My Nintendo Store could already be accessed through a web browser on the iPhone and iPad, but now customers who prefer to use an app have such an option.

There is another feature that Nintendo fans will love. In the app, you can sign in to your Nintendo Account and review your Switch and Switch 2 play activity, as well as any Nintendo 3DS and Wii U play activity logged until February 2020.

Other features include the latest news about Nintendo games and events, the ability to receive push notifications when items on your wish list go on sale, and more.

The free Nintendo Store app is available now in the App Store in the United States, Canada, Mexico, Brazil, and many European countries. It is also available in Japan, where it replaces a similar My Nintendo app that was released in 2020.

So Nintendo uses a competitor’s store to publish its own store, which includes a web page to handle payments — in order to avoid Apple’s 30% cut — to charge purchases on their own store, where they themselves take a 30% cut from game developers. Did I get that right? :)

Wouldn’t love that at all. Each time I grab an iPhone and it’s ugly OLED display and launch any game I wanna throw up, every time I grab a Switch 2 it feels like I am holding a gaming masterpiece in my hands. Experience matters a lot, real controls too, build quality, cooling fan to keep temperatures at bay, real HDMI out to play on TV, and not this clicky clacky touchscreen nothing with a single USB-C port and lots of distracting notifications and such. A phone is a phone, a console is a console

Nintendo's games don't run on iOS, so they're not avoiding anything. Walmart, Amazon, and McDonald's don't pay Apple 30% for their storefronts.

From yesterday:



Key Facts

* Nintendo said in an earnings report ('https://www.nintendo.co.jp/ir/pdf/2025/251104_4e.pdf') Tuesday the Switch 2 has sold 10.36 million units over the four months since its June 5 launch, and it raised its sales expectations through March 2026 to 19 million units, up from its previous expectation of 15 million.
* The Switch 2 is selling twice as fast as the original Nintendo Switch, which sold ('https://www.cnbc.com/2017/07/26/nintendos-turnaround-how-they-could-screw-it-up.html') 4.7 million units in its first four months after its release in March 2017.
