Badge arcade support

I would liked to ask how long the badge arcade project would take, I use a 3ds and I really miss using it and I have a couple questions like will I have to pay to use it and will I have to wait a day or do you get to use the whole thing freely. My main question though is how long will it take because I saw a post about this in April which said it was being worked on and yet I am still waiting. This is not a complaint or nag I just wanna know how long it may take from now

No eta

No ETA at the moment.

I imagine it’ll be testers only at first so we can test the servers for stability and making sure that most of the functions work properly before being publicly available to everyone.

This seems to be resolved.
