This is similar in structure to the serial, this is like the Title ID in the sense that it is a per title Identifier, but it is not checked by the 3DS Applications (It's like an internally used name). And follows this structure:

CTR-[P/N/T]-[Type][Identifier][Region]

* P/N/T - P Generally used for games (note: for retail and dev games this is the same) / N ~~Generally used~~ for built in applications like [[Mii Maker]] / T is used in some e-Shop demos

* P/N/T - P Generally used for games (note: for retail and dev games this is the same) / N Used for built in applications like [[Mii Maker]] and some eShop titles / T is used in some e-Shop demos

* [Type][Identifier][Region] - Same as in serial structure

CTR-[Type][Identifier][Region]-[Region]-[Digit]

* [Type][Identifier][Region] - Same as in serial structure

* [Region] - A three character representation of the title region, i.e. 'EUR' (Not always present)

* [Digit] - A single digit usually '1' or '0' (Not always present)
