==Development==
[[File:Bunny-hole.jpg|thumbnail|left|The Sales Bunny as he appears in his debut, ''[[StreetPass Mii Plaza]]''.]]
The Sales Bunny has been through notable development changes over the span of his early appearances. Initially, he was depicted as a [[Mii]], appearing in ''StreetPass Mii Plaza'' for his debut; this is a game where all characters are represented by the Mii avatars. Despite this, he was still physically similar to how he is now, with many of his facial expressions in this game being recognizable in his second appearance, ''Nintendo Badge Arcade''. He was given a more, fully-formed figure for this game, as well as a fleshed-out color-palette; with his appearance as a Mii being mostly white-furred with a pink hue. He was also given his own, unique attire. As of his appearance in ''Real Escape Game x Nintendo 3DS: Escape from the Plan of Mega Destruction'', he is depicted in his Mii form again.
 
His personality has developed more over time, with his debut showing signs of the same traits of his second appearance, only expanded upon for the latter. His personality-traits and character-role have carried on into his third appearance, despite the physical discrepancy.
 
The Sales Bunny has a name discrepancy, as well. In the Japanese version of ''Nintendo Badge Catcher'', he is referred to as "Baito". In the English versions of StreetPass Mii Plaza, he is simply referred to as ''the rabbit''.
 
==History==
===StreetPass Mii Plaza===
The Sales Bunny appears in ''StreetPass Mii Plaza'' on the Nintendo 3DS Nintendo eShop. He appears in rabbit-holes in Games mode for the two bundles of Premium content introduced with the game's updates. The Sales Bunny offers info on each game to try and sell the player on purchasing them. He also offers the game's Upgrade, shown when starting-up. There is also a Bunny Speech Bubble available for the the player's greeting; it is pink and has carrots and rabbit footprints. A wandering, bunny hero can be summoned in the Find Mii game, and the Bunny Ears item is based on him.
 
Additionally, he appears as the golden, trophy icon for the Game Vault mode on the main menu; this is a theme that carried-on with the Sales Bunny being depicted in a series of golden statues for the Collection mode in ''Nintendo Badge Arcade''.
 
===''Nintendo Badge Arcade''===
In ''Nintendo Badge Arcade'' on the 3DS eShop, the Sales Bunny acts as the game's guide, providing information and news to the player. He works in the arcade the game takes place in, a position he openly loves. The Sales Bunny is a hardcore gamer, being very enthusiastic about video-games and admitting that he works at the arcade so that he can play the games as soon as they come out. He is also very enthusiastic about the badges up for play in the arcade, and often alludes to his boss telling him to upsell. The Sales Bunny is featured in a number of his own series of badge-sets, as well, being offered under special promotion times.
