3DS eShop

Update: Added in Sunday’s updates.


Nintendo Badge Arcade has been receiving daily updates since heading to the 3DS eShop. Because it’s continually updated with content, we’re rounding up all of the additions and changes in a weekly post.

Here’s what’s on tap for the week of May 8:

May 8

– 15 Animal Crossing panels
– 10 Yo-kai Watch panels
– 5 Pushmo / Crashmo panels
– Animal Crossing theme offer until May 11
– Thank-you badges until May 18
– 1 free play

A few new games out came out this week on the Wii U and 3DS eShops. If you’re interested in checking out what’s new in screenshot form, take a look at the gallery below.

Inti Creates confirmed earlier today that Blaster Master Zero has sold 80,000 copies on Switch. As it turns out, other sales data was shared as well.

Azure Striker Gunvolt, Inti Creates’ first game for 3DS, has sold 180,000 copies. The company also confirmed the sales of the sequel are at 38,000 units. Both of these figures are based on worldwide sales on the eShop as of May 1.

At a recent event in Tokyo, Inti Creates shared some info on the sales and development process on Blaster Master Zero. The Switch version of the game was in development for six months (alongside the 3DS version) and the development team consisted of 35 people. To date, the Switch version has been downloaded 80,000 times.

While this may not sound all that impressive, given that Inti Creates were willing to publicly share this number, they must be satisfied with the game’s sales so far.

In one major way, Nintendo Badge Arcade is coming to an end in Japan. It’s been announced that the final set of new badges will be added to the 3DS app on May 26.

Badges are still being added to the North American and European versions. Nintendo has yet to say anything on the record, but new content will likely cease overseas in due time as well.
