Perhaps this is for the previously hinted at MyNintendo check-in type features IRL.

 

[Steiner]

Interesting... I wonder if this will tie in to the summer of play campaign. Special rewards for checking in at the event, maybe? This would need to roll out imminently for that to be the case, though.

 

[kami_sama]

Maybe a Check In feature for the smartphone app?

 

[SinCityAssassin]

This is probably how you get my Nintendo points for going to Nintendo related events.

 

[Cheezeman3000]

They actually had it at E3, although they weren't advertising it much. They had a rep who would scan your Nintendo QR code and you could win a prize.

I think it's a cool little feature that they could do a lot with.

 

[maxcriden]

Logo is genius BTW

 

[Shiggy]

Could be used at Gamescom to indicate where people should scan their QR codes:

Yeah that was my first thought. Is there a My Nintendo Rewards app yet?

 

[fetus8]

Instead of Gamestop distributing legendary Pokemons, Nintendo will hold events to do this? Hmmm...

 

[Kolibri]

But no trademark for "Check-Out"?

It's a trap!

 

[Regiruler]

They've already used something of this nature at Nintendo world store for tshirts or whatever. Probably just branded and streamlined.

 

[NoKisum]

Maybe this is the new SpotPass?

 

[Chindogg]

This is probably what they're going to use for the Universal theme parks.

 

[Marcel]

Great, a new way of getting coins for rewards that haven't been appealing since the rollout of the new program.

nice, Julius Caesar with Bowser

 

[sixteen-bit]

Foursquare competitor maybe?

 

[Erekiddo]

That logo is the best.

 

[Peléo]

What a great logo.

Maybe you will collect points by going to Nintendo events, stores, theme parks and movies ?

 

[Marcel]

Foursquare competitor maybe?

Foursquare hasn't been about check-ins since 2014.

 

[GinoFelino]

Well, that's a great reason to have the Switch online functionality as an app

And I'll add to the people saying damn, that logo is fantastic

 

[jon bones]

fuck me thats an amazing logo 😂

 

[Shiggy]

Well, that's a great reason to have the Switch online functionality as an app

How are they even related? The check-in for events requires the Nintendo Accounts website, not any app.

 

[Dark Cloud]

Wow sounds like some DRM shit. Nintendo gonna make us check in on a daily basis.

/s

 

[GinoFelino]

How are they even related? The check-in for events requires the My Nintendo website, not any app.

I could see this being a nice addition to the Switch app (being integrated with it), or linking with it

 

[Okami Haundo]

Amazing logo! I wonder if this will be something that gets its own app?

 

[Mariolee]

As a graphic designer, I'm more excited about the logo than the potential details.

 

[Jo Shishido's Cheeks]

We need to be able to use our phones to Streetpass everybody who's checked in at a particular location.

 

[Oersted]

This is probably how you get my Nintendo points for going to Nintendo related events.

Logo is genius BTW

Yes

 

[Nosgoroth]

I'm sorry but the logo is just too good.

 

[KingBroly]

Whoever designed the logo deserves a pay raise.

 

[Kneefoil]

Why is Waluigi wearing Mario's hat sideways?

 

[Persona7]

You can't have my GPS data Nintendo.

 

[Quonny]

holy shit that logo

 

[UnemployedVillain]

How are they even related? The check-in for events requires the Nintendo Accounts website, not any app.

I think he's saying you could essentially emulate Street Pass and check-in functionality and have it sync back to the Switch without having to have the Switch itself do anything, but sync later on (as street pass was a fairly significant battery drain and the Switch has no GPS)

 

[HardRojo]

As a fan of minimalist logos, that looks amazingly done.

 

[ToastyFrog]

Can't wait to lock down the "Mayor of Butter Bridge" badge.

 

[BGBW]

 

[foxuzamaki]

The NCU is finally going into fruition

 

[pinkurocket]

Nintendo's logo game has been on POINTE lately.

 

[Hyperfludd]

That's a pretty great logo, good work on their team for that.

 

[Neoxon]

Instead of Gamestop distributing legendary Pokemons, Nintendo will hold events to do this? Hmmm...

The Pokémon Company mostly does their own thing, so I could see them sticking with GameStop distribution.

But yeah, that logo is on-point. I'd imagine that it's for earning MyNintendo stuff at certain venues (E3, for example).

 

[jts]

The logo is good, but at the same time can't unsee Mario with a goatee.

Pretty curious about this trademark though. Nintendo does love to work in the AR/ARG space.

 

[darkside31337]

This logo is way better

 

[Mr. Smiley]

"Visit Footlocker on these specific days to get fresh kicks for your Inkling."

 

[Dark Cloud]

The one you use when you're about to check in at the love hotel.

 

[jon bones]

this maybe should be "check out" but i love it

 

[jts]

This logo is way better

Way less obvious checkmark in favour of a more defined moustache abstraction. Not what they were going for.

Dat logo.
