The 3DS has featured two notification icons on the Home Menu since launch. When receiving a StreetPass hit, a green circle appears. Meanwhile, the arrival of new SpotPass content is associated with a circle dot.
The recent introduction of themes brings a new color into the fray. It appears that Nintendo will be keeping users informed about new themes with the pink icon.
3DS themes have now arrived in Japan, and Nintendo has uploaded videos showing off every single one. We’ve only posted a single video above, but you can find another 46 over on Nintendo’s Japanese YouTube page.

REDMOND, Wash.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Who’s ready for adventure? Captain Toad certainly is, but he’s not the only one. Pink-pigtailed Toadette joins Captain Toad and makes her debut as a second playable character in portions of the upcoming Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker game.
Armed with a headlight and a can-do attitude, Captain Toad and Toadette must make their way through enemy-infested locales like Wild West shanties and Goomba waterparks. Each location is bursting with puzzles to solve and secrets to unearth. These heroes need to be extra clever in order to tackle these obstacles, since they can’t jump.
#CaptainToad: Treasure Tracker comes to #WiiU on 09/01! Look who's joining the party! Trailer: http://t.co/NpQiX6za4B pic.twitter.com/zOGiQdYtEL
