3DS Update Adds Custom Themes To The Handheld

by Kyle Hilliard on Oct 07, 2014 at 03:14 PM

The latest 3DS update, version 9.0, adds the ability to change your home screen theme.

Updating the 3DS (which you can do immediately) adds five pre-installed themes allowing you to change your home screens colors to either red, blue, yellow, pink, or black. You can also purchase additional themes. There are an assortment of pattern themes to buy for $0.99 like a checkerboard theme or a gold and white polka dots theme. The more interesting themes, however, are the ones based on Nintendo characters and games. Those themes are $1.99 and are based on Mario and other Nintendo characters. You will also find a The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds theme.

You can find out more about the themes and the update by hitting the links. The Vita was also updated recently to include themes.
