Nintendo Badge Arcade finally coming to the west

[lars708]

Ugh everytime when i start up this game, i end up loading the e-shop menu to purchase plays, but just before i confirm my purchase i cancel since i feel like i could spend it on better things. Like a potential Mario Kart 8 DLC pack. I don't know what to doooo

 

[shunishu]

yeah don't do it .. the 5 tries you get are hardly worth it and you cant get too much with them anyway unless youre lucky.. just try the training & free promo plays

 

[GalacticGhost]

OMG there's new Splatoon badges today aaaaaahhhhhh

And the practice catcher today was really easy and I got like 13 badges from it

And I got 3 free plays

And I tried the real version of the catcher and got a load of Splatoon badges

YAAAAAAASSSSSS

Save your money for things that aren't just cosmetic. It's honestly not worth spending your money on this.


Splatoon machines added, got a free play because of that... Tried out the machine with Splatoon-themed system icons (System Settings, Mii Plaza, etc), got all 8 with that one free try. I aimed in the middle and got lucky.

Then messed up the second free try I got from the Practice Catcher, only managed to get one badge on an 8-bit Mario machine that's being taken out tomorrow. Oh well.

I won 5 badges from my free play and now I think I'm hooked. I should probably delete this stupid thing off my 3ds lmao

I'm hooked too XD I was pretty frustrated with it though after not getting any badges for a couple of days. Then today I got a bunch of the new Splatoon ones from the catcher with the Sheldon badge! I got four Splattershots (two blue, two orange) and two Inklings (a boy and a girl). I'm using them now in my home menu! It makes me want Splatoon even more though ;-;

Haaaaa I've already blown my money trying to get all the AC badges. Yesssssss I'm a sucker and I paid on like the first day to get all of them. Hahaha

Haha, I have almost felt like paying to get these badges, but that was after going through a couple of days of not even getting free plays. I don't have any AC badges yet, though.

Yeah I've not been getting free plays (except the splatoon ones and when I hit ten dummy badges)
Which really sucks because I catch like 10+ badges each day so like ????? Thank u Nintendo

How are you able to catch that many badges?! oooo: The only time I've caught more than ten in the practice catcher was today, when I got 13 badges.

 

[Stalfos]

Looking forward to trying it out soon (just downloaded it) but I will not spend any money on it. Ever.

If I do, please kill me.

 

[Jarrad]

nvm

I've been having the exact same luck with dummy badges. I don't believe that the badges with free turns on them actually exist. They're just a mythical creature, like bigfoot or Steven Seagal, and people who claim to have seen them are really just trying to enforce the myth for tourist reasons.


On the other hand, I cleared the Splatoon machine with all the camera/miimaker/eshop/etc splat icons in it with that one free turn it gives you...Though it's pretty much only because the machine bugged the **** out. One of them just straight up fell through the stand it was on like it wasn't there.

Since I didn't really 'deserve' those badges, I'm now waiting for the Rabbit to ask me for money before he breaks my kneecaps.

Um there was also the hammer one? That one was was pretty easy. Plus like I said, multiple DS's so I get a bit of practice at it haha.

I'm actually not as good as I sound... But for some reason on the practice machine I'm awesome?? Maybe there's less pressure haha

Hahahahahahaha, I would say they are mythical creatures too... But I got some on my first few days (but maybe that was just Nintendo baiting me into playing lots)

I don't know, while trying to joke and charm his way into your wallet, the rabbit seems pretty nice. Although I do not like the way he dons that moustache and turns into his boss. I'd look out for that when looking out for your kneecaps! ;D

 

[GalacticGhost]

Yeeeesssss I got even more Splatoon badges today with the free play I got!

Oh is the Splatoon catcher out in Europe already? Haven't opened the app since release.
(I really got into Minecraft recently so i forget about everything else oops...)

Ok seriously how are you guys getting these free plays, I got 10 fakes today and only got 1 free play thanks to that. I'm so over this.

Well, i only got 7 dummy badges the only time i played with the practice catcher and one of them had a red target thingy on the back which gave me 2 free plays. It is just luck i guess... (Just like in a real arcade)

 

[Celestefey]

I finally got the Isabelle and Digby badges, I'm so happy. ;v; Any other time that I attempt to get them they just fall out of the crane grabber hand. Glad I've finally got them because it says there are only 2 days left on the Animal Crossing machines, which hopefully means there will be more ones soon!

 

[ObeseMudkipz]

How do you get the badges from themario kart one wit the music notes, freezie, and I think it was rosalina? I tried picking up freezie but it looks like they were all stuck in that square
