If they're going to keep this up, they need to implement a "shuffle" feature, a "playlist" feature, and a "calendar" feature.

"Shuffle"
Load a random theme (from a list of your favorites) every time you return to the HOME Menu. (Or maybe a new theme every time you change software titles.)

"Playlist"
Make a list of your favorite themes and set them to cycle in sequence after set amounts of time or a certain amount of game launches. Maybe assign certain themes to specific titles.

"Calendar"
Set themes of your choosing to automatically be set on certain days of the year. Have your new Halloween theme automatically show up every October from now on!

Yes.

The Zelda one is great, though I wish the folder icons were pictures of dungeon doors instead of keys.

Am I the only one that hears the Intel (or was it Dell or HP) chime at the start of all these Nintendo ads?

Nintendo's used this in Japan and Europe since the Wii days. And no, it's not the same as Intel's.

The general theme is pretty cute as well.

S-spooky!

Makes me wish Nintendo had a dedicated "Halloween" IP. Guess Luigi's Mansion is that, in a way, but I don't know if it'll ever really take off since I felt 2 was kind of middling.

Luigi's mansion sold very well so it already took off.

Nintendo is seriously on a ROLE lately.

Oh man, I'd like this too. Any retro pokemon theme would be great too.

Ibuki · Oct 17, 2014

I fucking love Halloween! Please bring to NA. I will probably grab at least one for my Japanese LL.

Rodney McKay · Oct 17, 2014

I want a Final Fantasy theme that makes that iconic sound when you navigating the menu item like this:

or this

"Trick or treat" makes me think seasonal themes should be free or at least discounted.

Making that 円円円円円円円円円円円円 like nobody's business.

Oh my god the cat one is so cute

If they did a luigis mansion one that used the luigis mansion theme I'd totally get it.

So obvious, surprised they didn't do it

That would have been the obvious one to make. Would hopefully have avoided the ugly purple/orange colour scheme too.

We don't really celebrate Halloween in Europe but let's hope these come out here too

Beckx · Oct 17, 2014

Nintendo, destroying my wallet, one idea at a time.

Jackano · Oct 17, 2014

So that's their new thing now... Releasing a large bunch of themes and cover plates (all a little bit overpriced if you asks me)?
Will still buy that Zelda one because it's better than the ALBW one! :>(

NotLiquid · Oct 17, 2014

They make Halloween themes yet miss the perfect opportunity of an Ashley theme

smh Nintendo

RagnarokX · Oct 17, 2014

$2 is a bit pricey for menu themes in general, but for themes you'll use at most 31 days a year? The Zelda one could at least pass year round if it didn't have "Trick or Treat" on the top screen.

2 euros does sound a little too steep for what it is.

1 euro would be much better, and I think they would sold even more of them at that price.

Kacho · Oct 17, 2014

Really digging the Animal Crossing and General themes.

RagnarokX · Oct 17, 2014

They need to make a Boo theme that uses this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q1Sri--l_aU

I don't think Lavender Town is well known enough to be on the radar of whoever would be making the decisions for these themes.

Tortimer · Oct 17, 2014

Do we know if these themes will transfer from my current 3DS to the New 3DS whenever it comes out in the US?

I need the AC Halloween one...

Or maybe this one!

though I can see how it would get tiring after more than 1 minute spent on the home menu, haha

Polioliolio · Oct 17, 2014

This shit really needs to be coupled with game purchases.

You buy Animal Crossing, you get one Animal Crossing theme.
You buy Kirby, you get a Kirby theme.

I will never ever spend money on this kind of thing, but attaching it to a product adds important value, I'd say.

I can see it being included as a preorder bonus, but the themes are kind of a dumb thing for people (like me) to waste extra money on. That's kind of their point.

Yeah. It's crazy that you don't get something like the ALBW theme for free for having ALBW.

You're willing to spend $2,200 (assuming I counted the money in the gif right) for 3DS themes? XD

Zelda theme in that video sounds great!

ROBOKITTYZILLA · Oct 17, 2014

I need this! Come on NOA ._.

adroit · Oct 23, 2014

The Halloween themes are now available in the US. Can someone in Canada check to see if they're available there too?

Loptous · Oct 23, 2014

Just got an email from Nintendo with a free code for the Black Cat theme.
(I'm from France btw.)

Chanser · Oct 23, 2014

Thanks Nintendo, they sent me a free Halloween download code via email.

adroit · Oct 23, 2014

No free code for me (thanks, NOA). I bought all three themes (like a boss). I'm rockin' the kitty today. The forecast for tomorrow is Animal Crossing.

Might get the Zelda one when I get home later today.

These themes are dangerous and I really shouldn't be buying them....

Nice.

Zelda will be mine, although themes are kind of useless to me at the moment since I haven't played anything other than Smash since it was launched.

OricWindstar · Oct 23, 2014

I saw Zelda for a Halloween theme and thought it would be dumb, but damn...that's awesome.

shaki123 · Oct 23, 2014

Where are my WiiU themes? And why do I even ask?

Kacho · Oct 23, 2014

Sweet. I'll be buying the Animal Crossing theme this evening for sure. I may pick up the general cat theme as well since I really like the music.
