How do you organise your 3DS home screen?

I imagine this is how Jake Rodkin organized his.

Virtual Console
Indie Games - VVVVVV, Gunman Clive, stuff like that
Demos
Eshop - Basically Nintendo eShop exclusives
Online - that ATV game

Games - the bundled games that I never use
Applications - sound recorder, photos, Colors 3D
Mii Stuff - Streetpass Plaza and Mii Creator
Entertainment - trailers from the eShop
Stuff - the health and safety thing and the Nintendo Zone app

Then I have eShop, game card and settings in the column just off the side of the screen.

I see what you did there, pretty neat
 
I use setting grid setting 3 (3 x 5)

First panel
Game Cartridge (Pokemon) (Folder (contains both Pokebank storage applications))
the rest are applications such as camera/settings and Mii channel.

Next panel
10 free NES games + 3 remade 3D retro games

Next panel
10 free GBA games + Mario World and Zelda trailer

Final panel, Amabassador ...thing, SD tansfer and Mii creation.

(Very last panel at the bottom right has the health and safety thing)

Nothing special. But after looking at this thread, I'm gonna re-arrange it.
 
Folders, folders everywhere. I have a Sega folder (for Game Gear and Sega Classics), an eShop folder, a Game Boy folder, a NES folder, a Zelda folder and a RPG folder. Pokemon Bank, Pokemon Transporter, Pokemon Y, Animal Crossing: New Leaf, Mario Kart 7 and Star Fox are on the root folder.

Gives all the fucks
Basically, keep out Card Slot, StreetPass, Settings, & eShop out on the main screen, then 5 folders for:
- 3DSware or other downloaded eShop titles (23 games, try to group them by sequel, Guild-01/02, and newer stuff up front for some consistency)
- NES titles (12 games, organize by title)
- GBA (10, order of title)
- GB/C which I've marked Virtual Console (17, organized by title once again)
- Misc folder for stuff I never touch (AR games, Mii Maker, apps, etc.).

Considering I've downloaded 62 games, I'm so glad for the folders & hope they make it on the Wii U eventually.

A - Apps
D - Demos
e - eShop exclusive games
H - Handheld Virtual Console games
N - NES Virtual Console games

Funny how there are so many ways you can go about doing this. It was such a relief when they added folders!

Very shittily until Nintendo adds some real features like folders with user created images or actual names instead of one letter garbage.
 
3D Games (Games that actually use the 3D feature, including 3D Classics)
Game Demos
DSiWare
Virtual Console
Ambassador Games (Games I received as part of the 3DS Ambassador Program)*
Software (Non-game applications such as Netflix and Youtube)

Inside each folder, I organize alphabetically by series (Mario, Zelda, etc) and then by original release date of each game.

*I'm debating renaming this to Game Boy Advance or something. Over time, Nintendo has released all of the non-GBA Ambassador games as full Virtual Console releases and we Ambassadors have gotten free upgrades to the official releases. Once I got the update for each game, I would move it to the Virtual Console folder. Thus GBA games are the only ones left in the Ambassador folder.
