Nintendo Europe has confirmed that you’ll be able to get custom themes for your Nintendo 3DS starting in October. The changes bring backgrounds, icons, folders, music and new sound effects. These will be available for the current Nintendo 3DS models. The new themes will be available via the Nintendo 3DS eShop.

Does this mean the regular 3ds/2ds will also have the custom backgroud features as well and not just exclusively for the "new 3ds" ?

Any thoughts?

Yeah. Im really excited for the new update coming soon :)
 
Yep, the regular 2DS and 3DS (XL) will get their customs HOME menus this October.
However, I don't know why, but I think we'll have to pay for them. Free sounds too good to be true.
 
about time as well! themes do sound very neat and customizing it to the way you want it to look is nice. :)

I hope they're free, but I doubt it. :p
 
Me gusta.


I like free things as well. Please Nintendo. Please....
 
Can't wait for this. :)
 
Will that be everywhere or just in Europe, out of curiosity?

This is will be available for everybody who will do this October's 3DS System Update.

This is awesome. I always thought is was slightly sad that the 3DS didn't have custom themes or backgrounds or wallpapers. It's highly unlikely that they will be free, sadly, but I also think that Nintendo will, like they're almost always nice enough to do, include one custom theme/background for free as a demonstration of the new feature.

Well I'm sure Nintendo will give you a select few you don't have to pay for (hopefully a Zelda one will be on the free list!) I'm totally excited for this update like everyone else here!!

REALLY hope they're cheap. I would love to have that Animal Crossing theme. If they're fair priced, I'll even get the Legend of Zelda theme to change it up. Heck, I'd probably end up buying them all eventually.

I'm really excited for these! My home screen is a little bland right now xD.
Here's a picture of some of them for those of you who haven't seen them yet:

Nice idea buy nintendo. But i want custom themes. Not themes that i have to buy in the theme shop. And please nintendo, give us some free themes. I hate those free colored themes. Looks nice but i want more themes for my 3ds.
