Nintendo's latest 3DS firmware update has added the ability to customise your handheld with themes. Six basic coloured themes are available for free, or you can download more from the new Theme Shop. Simple designs cost 89p, or you can purchase themes featuring Nintendo characters for £1.79. Currently there are only a small number available, including a few classic Mario designs and one inspired by Zelda: A Link Between Worlds. Each also brings with it a new desktop theme tune - for example, a Super Mushroom theme includes the Toad House music from recent Mario games. The Japanese version of the theme shop looks to have a few more available, including a couple of Animal Crossing designs. As well as a general tidy of the overall 3DS desktop, today's update also brings with it a handy image upload tool to share screenshots directly to Twitter and Facebook. Sign in with your details and you can post to both social networks directly from your handheld's home screen. It's the first time Nintendo has allowed you to post to either network directly from the 3DS - previously the only option available was to save photos and then upload them via an SD card, or to instead use the company's own Miiverse.
