Nintendo Badge Arcade

Nintendo Badge Arcade (Japanese: バッジとれ〜るセンター Collectible Badge Center) is a freemium application for the Nintendo 3DS released in Japan on December 17, 2014, in North America on November 10, 2015, and in Europe and Australia on November 13, 2015. It features various claw crane minigames with badges used to decorate the 3DS's HOME Menu as prizes.

Pokémon badges are available in the North American versions of the game from November 17 to 23, 2015 to celebrate the release of Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon.

Gameplay

Players operate the claw machines by pressing and holding the A button to have the claw move to the left. Releasing the button has the claw stop and attempt to pick up anything beneath it. Specific machines may have a hammer in place of a claw; when the button is released, the hammer descends until it meets resistance, then swings. There are also machines that drop bombs when the button is released. Machines are grouped by games and will be playable for a limited time before being rotated out.

Using the machines requires plays. Five plays are sold for ¥90 (equivalent to USD $1.00, £0.90, or €1.00). The first time the game is started, the player is given five free plays. A practice machine can be used once each day to acquire more free plays. Every ten badges collected in the practice machine rewards one free play, with some badges giving bonus plays. Extra badges roll over to the next day. Additionally, free plays may be given during promotions.

Badges are put on the Nintendo 3DS's HOME Menu in the slots used by applications. Certain badges will also open applications such as the Nintendo eShop, Mii Maker, and the Nintendo 3DS camera. Badges may also be put on folders. Players can also post snapshots of their Home screens on Miiverse to show off their badge arrangements.

Pokémon badges

Within the player's collection, badges are grouped into sets by which machine they are in. These groups are ordered by National Pokédex number, using only the Pokémon with the lowest Pokédex number of the set. When placing badges on the HOME Menu, badges are grouped by the region in which the Pokémon first appeared.
