I'd got to a running store. Tell them about the pain you're having and bring your shoes. Would not be surprised if you're an over-pronator (the majority of us are) and Nikes for sure, and depending on the type of New Balance also, don't provide a lot of stability for pronation. A good running store (not a Foot Locker, but something like Fleet Feet or Run In) will be able to help you find a better shoe and/or the appropriate inserts that will help you.
I use inserts called Superfeet. They have saved me a lot of pain.
"Squishy" will not necessarily help. It may help, it may hurt. You may need something very firm in the arch. Get to the running store, ask them to if they can do a gait analysis. You won't regret it.
