Meanwhile, this week’s eShop download (out today in Japan) is Swapnote, a messaging app that lets you message people on your Nintendo 3DS friends list. Swapnote is a free app, and lets you send handwritten messages, photos and sounds. You can watch a video for it above.

 

Swapnote is slated for release sometime this month in the U.S. and Europe as well. In Europe, it will be titled Nintendo Letter Box. The app will be a free download in all regions.
