I, originally, wasn't going to put anything up about this simply because it's not an actual facebook update and it's already been 3 hours and no one else had made anything. BUT no shit is too minor, right?

So what you see here is a Miitomo that Chris has created. Miitomo is a new app, by Nintendo, that lets you create a Mii of your own which has the sole purpose of asking you questions so that it can go talk to your friends' Mii and then return to you and basically tell you what it talked about with your friend's Mii. The app actually calls itself a "social in-between".

Reading the provided description, and then reading some of the reviews for this app, shows that you already need to be friends with this person to have your Mii talk to their Mii. Meaning you can't just meet random people online, you have to already have this person on facebook, twitter, or meet them in person and have your Miis "meet" each other through wifi.

There are also In-Game purchases you can make to purchase outfits and hairstyles for your Mii; and based off of what Chris's Miitome looks like, he has already used real money to make his Miitome character.

So why is this important, you may ask? Well really, it's not. But it is rather interesting that for all of Chris's moaning and bitching about people not socializing more in the real world, he has literally downloaded and spent money on an app that's sole purpose is to be an online social-in-between so that you don't have to talk to people in real life....in fact, you don't talk to an actual person at all. You talk to your Mii, who goes off and talks to your friend's Mii, who then comes back to you, and tells you what the other Mii told them about your friend.

So, in order for this to work:
  • Both users need to be on Facebook
  • Both users need to be Facebook friends
  • Both users need to be Nintendo weebs
  • Both users need to have downloaded this Miitomo app and created their virtual paper dolls
Not only may this be the most autistic thing ever but isn't the average age of a Nintendo gamer about 12? This isn't going to end well...

Are we sure that he's spent money on it? I downloaded it myself yesterday, haven't linked it to anything but my Nintendo account (one of the rewards that points can go towards is discounts on downloaded games, hence why I bothered getting Miitomo at all), and have only opened it twice, yet I have enough in-game currency to get the majority of items because of bonuses and stuff. That being said, I wouldn't be surprised to see Chris spend real money on this.

Nintendo's getting really sneaky about in-game purchasing. This game is guaranteed to get at least 10 bucks out of Chris. Even if he went through the trouble to link his account and get free in-game money, it's not enough to get multiple outfits. Chris will need multiples in order to get style points in the game. Also the stock changes so he could miss out if he doesn't buy on impulse. Seriously, Chris will spend over a hundred dollars on this one game.

Miitomo is quite fun, if you don't take it as a serious app. But I can see Chris taking this like the next best thing to actually talking to people,it's quite quirky how it works. The mii asks you a question you answer it then others can hear your answer and comment, however it uses twitter and facebook to add friends so expect troll comments like "JULLLAYYY" "BLARMS" "DON'T CALL ANYBODY" etc.
