Gameplay

Nintendo Badge Arcade Nintendo Badge Arcade for Nintendo 3DS Official Site

Nintendo Badge Arcade takes place in an arcade filled with machines known as Badge Catchers, each containing badges based on various Nintendo franchises such as Super Mario, Animal Crossing, and Splatoon, which are reorganised regularly. The arcade is hosted by a pink, anthropomorphic rabbit character called Arcade Bunny, who always greets the player, and often introduces promotional events. The Badge Catchers are viewed from a 2d side-on perspective. Similar to real-life UFO catchers, players must move the catcher's claw side to side, pick up badges, and try and drop them off the bottom-left of the screen. They can accomplish this by simply picking them up, or use other techniques such as pushing them or causing land-slides (this only works if there is a big pile of badges). Some Badge Catchers use alternate means of obtaining badges. The Hammer Arm knocks badges sideways towards the hole, the Bomb Arm blasts badges away in all directions, and the Stick Arm (which originally went unused, but was first revealed on April 28, 2016 in Japan) sticks badges onto the arm. Any badges that the player obtains can be placed on the Nintendo 3DS' HOME Menu, with certain badges able to launch some of the 3DS' built-in applications.

Players begin the game with five free plays, after which they must purchase additional plays via the Nintendo eShop. Special themes for the HOME Menu can also be unlocked by purchasing enough plays during certain periods. Once per day, players can use the Practice Catcher to practice catching dummy badges. Players earn a free bonus play for every ten dummy badges they collect, plus additional plays should they uncover a bonus badge. Additional plays may also be offered to the player through occasional events. All activities require a constant online connection.
