Nintendo Badge Arcade

The piece of downloadable software, Collectible Badge Center, has finally been announced in Europe and with the release on November 13th 2015 under the title Nintendo Badge Arcade. This piece of downloadable software allows for you to spend money to earn badges in crane games which can be then used to decorate your Nintendo 3DS's home screen.
