It works well as a game you can just pick up and poke at as desired to kill just a bit of time. [Issue #21 – May/June 2016, p.28]
Miitomo is an interesting take on social media that is well worth picking up for a personality filled app experience.

Fantastic start to the world of apps for Nintendo! If you can read you will enjoy this game. A great way to socialize by answering questions that you are not normally asked. Well done, Nintendo, keep them coming!

This was a neat little idea that was shut down way too fast. Sad to see this little experiment mistreated.

Miitomo is an impressive start for Nintendo's mobile projects. It's an easy-to-use social network that's highly unique and delivers big laughs and lots of fun. It's also fair about in-app purchases, and contains no advertising. That said, we'll have to wait and see whether or not the world has long-term use for a highly structured, perpetually cheerful social network.
All in all, if you love your social media, then this could certainly have you adding the app to your daily routine, especially if Nintendo incorporates it into its upcoming NX system.
In several ways, Miitomo is the perfect kind of app for Nintendo to bring to mobile devices – it’s unexpected, silly, and it doesn’t make any sense.
Miitomo is distinctively a Nintendo game, but it's too light on content to keep the interest for a long time.
Miitomo marks the beginning of My Nintendo, the successor of Club Nintendo. The Fans of Big N have found their own social network. However we must recognize that this is pretty funny. We hope that Nintendo will rapidly improve this new baby, though very promising!
An enjoyable social media "game." One that has that classic sense of Nintendo originality to make it all the more charming. Given that is more on the social media side of things there isn't much actual gameplay. The enjoyment comes from the unique way you can interact with others. So the more people you connect with the better Miitomo is.
It's all about answering questions about yourself and reading other people's answers. It's a pretty clever way to share your interests while learning about your friends and/or family. It doesn't sound like much and to be honest it really isn't. However Nintendo is able to add a sense of fun to it all and throw in some rewards to make it worthwhile.
You can also deck out your Mii with some new gear. You can import your Mii from your other Nintendo systems by linking your Nintendo account or make a new one just for the game. Either way it's entertaining to interact with your (fully voiced) virtual doppelganger.
Another exciting thing about Miitomo is the potential is has. Nintendo has the power to expand upon it in interesting ways and I really hope they do so. Possibly with integration to their future games and the upcoming NX.
While this sort of limited social media design might not appeal to everyone, the free-to-play model makes it at least worth a look. With some work on Nintendo's part this could end up being Facebook-lite for Nintendo fans. As it stands now it's a fun diversion. One worth checking out and has the potential to keep you coming back even in it's current state. I can't wait to see where they take things from here.

Don't get me wrong, I love the concept at work here, and the execution is generally pretty good. It almost feels like a social experiment to see what you're willing to admit to whatever group of people you end up inviting to your circle, and you can play dress-up for extra points.
The main problem is that the roster of questions, while deep enough to last probably a week or two, runs dry pretty quickly. After which, all the app will ask you is what you had for breakfast, or what you did over the weekend, or what you were just doing, ad infinitum. So once you've exhausted the questions and your friends' responses to them, there is absolutely no reason to keep using the app unless you're the sort who's willing to grind the daily tasks for the slow trickle of My Nintendo points.

While Mittomo was an alright idea Nintendo just could not deliver on it. I've always been skeptical about Nintendo's future apps and Miitomo really isn't clearing any of my worries away. Yes it is cool that we can interact with friends but there is not much to do. We are not stupid Nintendo we know that Miitomo was just a cash grab. Overall Miitomo is an alright game for children but for it will be forgotten quickly by everyone else.

I seriously don't see the appeal of this at all, even judging it only as a "social experience". So incredibly boring, hardly anything to do in this game.

There is nothing to expect with this one. It's just another dull, boring and pointless app that tries to be cool with kids. Fortunately there's a few good things I have to say. Allthough the music and graphics are nice that doesn't help the game one bit. Miitomo looks like a "Tomodachi Life" game but has new features, but unfortunately they are ridiculous and pointless. To summarise Miitomo it's just a bad pointless app that has no point or reason to be Mii game. Definitely the weakest of the Mii franchise.

Summary Think you know your friends? Guess again! Miitomo is an app from Nintendo that brings out a side of you your friends have never seen before. How? By making a Mii of yourself that's your personal go-between. Ever wonder what fun details make you...YOU? Your Mii will find out by asking you questions about yourself. Want your friends to kno...
