Japanese Nintendo Mailbag #2!
Welcome to our second Mailbag post where I answer questions all from the same user and relating to: the birth of my blog, my first Japanese system, Miitomo’s life expectancy, Animal Crossing on mobile, my fave online multiplayer game and how many 3DS systems I own! Ask me questions on Tumblr or over on my Twitter!
1. How long have you been running this blog?
I started in in January 2013 as just another tumblog. It became Japanese 3DS in April of that year and Japanese Nintendo almost two years ago!
2. When did you get your (first?) Japanese-region system?
I got my first Japanese games long before my first Japanese system as Game Boy was region-free and I had a Universal Adaptor for my SNES. However I think it was my Game Boy Light!
3. How long do you think Miitomo will last?
Such a great question. After Nintendo’s brutality recently with Miiverse, Wii U Chat, TVii, SplatNet and Flipnote Studio I honestly can’t see Miitomo seeing 2019:-(
4. Any expectations for the mobile Animal Crossing game?
I haven’t thought too much about the mobile game, more-so of the Animal Crossing game it is supposed to help promote. Logic implies that a Nintendo Switch Animal Crossing has to happen soon!
5. Which game released on a Nintendo system has your favorite online multiplayer?
I’m probably going to alienate many readers by saying I much prefer playing alone – offline multiplayer at best! The games I’ve played most online however have been Splatoon (1) and Mario Kart 8.
6. How many 3DS systems do you have?
I’ve sold several and currently have just three: one European and two Japanese.
