With all the positive press that's been surrounding Pokémon GO lately, it's easy to forget that Nintendo's first smartphone app, Miitomo, is still going strong. Though it seems that Miitomo's popularity plateaued rather quickly following its release, Nintendo certainly can't be faulted for abandoning the app, as it's received fairly frequent apparel updates over the months since it's release. The next theme update will be centered around Super Mario, with fan input having some impact on what's going to make the cut.
To begin with, users can vote on a Blooper, Bowser, Boo, or Goomba tee, with the winner being offered for free on My Nintendo. Voting can be done by going here. As of time of writing, Boo is in the lead with Bowser as a close second.
In addition to this, a Super Mario All-Stars shirt will also be given away on My Nintendo.
Next up, three new shirts based on the Power Star, Mushroom, and Fire Flower will be available available for purchase via platinum coins.
And finally, eight shirts will be added to Miitomo Drop; four of which are the ones up for vote, and four new ones depicting Mario, Rosalina, Peach, and some Toads.
All of this new content is coming on 28th July, and voting for the free shirt ends on 22nd July at 7:00 PM PST.
What do you think? Do any of these outfits interest you? Have you been playing Miitomo regularly? Drop us a comment in the section below.

Wahoo~!!!!
Miitomo is getting more collab content. Hoping for a Kirby collab.
Lol miitomo
Wow..............tbh its about time. I expected this months ago
"...Miitomo's popularity plateaued rather quickly..."
So I guess you could call it a... Great Plateau! Ba-dum-tss!
But seriously, some of those shirts look pretty sweet, particularly Bowser, Rosalina, and the Toads. This might actually convince me to boot Miitomo back up. A little disappointing, though, as I misread the title at first and thought there were actual T-shirts coming to My Nintendo.
I wish that they were real shirts because they actually look pretty cool!
It's been a month since I touched this app. Have no reason to come back since Platinum Coins are just proven useless so far.
I gotta get back into Miitomo again...
Lol miitomo
The 4 T-shirts up for public voting look terrible. The only real nice T-shirts there are the Rosalina one and the Super Mario All-Stars one. The other Mario T-shirt looks like he's taking a dump.
Or Nintendo, you could just... oh I don't know... actually release these tops physically... that's an option...
I want 2 of the 3 shirts there giving away and the peach one...
maybe the star shirt if it came in yellow
Miitomo... I forgot about this "game" lol
Now if it was Tomodachi Life, but on mobile, that would be GREAT!
Would they come in extra large
Something to do the next time the Pokemon Go servers are down...
What's Miitomo again?
@Ikramali If not, download and use Pokémon Go first and you'll fit a large Miitomo shirt in no time.
Those are nice. It's time for a functionality update to miitomo though. And yes, these should coincide with real clothes as a promotion. I still imagine miitomo as a sort of hub but integration with other games isn't happening so I don't know. It still has its charms.
@Slaz lol. Thanks for the tip
"Miitomo"
Huh? Oh, yeah! It was an app that was...a thing...but then it got old really quickly, and...yeah.
@Ikramali Haha, don't take it too seriously though. I usually wear XL too and Pokémon Go doesn't make me walk more than I already did, lol.
Hmm, I know Miitomo has had its fair share of criticism (and not without reason), but when I look at the premise, I can't see how it's any more ridiculous than chasing non-existent pocket monsters. They are both fairly shallow experiences, yet one is the in-thing and the other is ... not. I've never been able to grasp "brand power".
Its boring answering questions,I wanna see new stuff! Build a house,go into town,decorate my room.... Something kinda like The Sims. If they do something like that,then I will play it.
Sweet! These shirts look great! Looks like I'll be using all my saved up Miitomo coins on Miitomo Drop!
