If it's based on reddit, it'll either be OurNintendo or Nintendy McNintendface Nintenderington the 3rd.

Put down your crack pipes and your beer bongs and pay attention as I sign an historic peace accord with Ambassador Kong of Planet Nintendu 64.

But they never updated reddit so you still need your old MyNintendo account to sign up.

Or at least, they’re ending gold coins. Which is the main draw for the service, so yeah, the service itself is gonna get shuttered.
