Petit Computer #3 SmileBASIC has been out on the Japanese 3DS eShop for quite awhile now. Since its release, users have come up with all sorts of apps and games.

SmileBoom has now launched Petit Computer Magazine: First Edition, which bundles together a few games made in Petit Computer #3 SmileBASIC. Here’s what we know about it:

– Petit Computer Magazine doesn’t require Petit Computer #3 SmileBASIC (it’s a standalone purchase)
– Users can commercialize their products and find ways to develop new ones using BASIC, a hobbyist programming language
– The collection will include user nominated titles that won awards for their originality, humor, design, and artfulness
– 36 unique games
– SOLID GUNNER, a title developed using the new SmileBASIC 3 software, will also be included in the collection
– SOLID GUNNER: contemporary shooting game with retro-style looks that doesn’t rely on walls of projectiles for difficulty
– The program has also been used to create themes for the New Nintendo 3DS
– Hakase and Mr. Syntax, characters who’ve merited advertisements, official websites, and books, have had themes created for them using SmileBASIC 3
– 200 yen each for the themes
– Petit Computer Magazine: First Edition is 300 yen
