Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: RideWithACE at 5.0 against Nintendo Today!'s 4.3. RideWithACE also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 62%) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). Nintendo Today!'s advantage is update cadence (every 9 days vs every 11 months) and ratings volume (1K vs 3). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
