Finally, I got my third streetpass!

... ... ...

Holland sucks in these kinds of things

I'm surprised how much central London sucks for this. I got a better streetpass rate when I went to the suburbs. Only good thing about C.London is that if you do get a hit there is a chance it is from a tourist.

So, with Rhythm Thief, I've passed the limit of 12 StreetPass titles and had to deactivate StreetPass for another title in order to activate it for Rhythm Thief. =/

Right now I currently have StreetPass enabled for the following titles:

1. Dead or Alive: Dimensions
2. Freakyforms: Your Creations, Alive!
3. Kid Icarus: Uprising
4. Mario Kart 7
5. Mario Tennis Open
6. Nintendo 3DS Sound
7. nintendogs + cats: Golden Retriever & New Friends
8. Rhythm Thief & the Emperor's Treasure
9. Sonic Generations
10. StreetPass Mii Plaza
11. Super Mario 3D Land
12. Swapnote

I deactivated StreetPass for Super Street Fighter IV: 3D Edition to make room for Rhythm Thief, and I previously had StreetPass activated for Pokémon Rumble Blast before it glitched up on me. =/

Anyone else reach this limit yet? It's going to be very tough for me to choose which titles to deactivate StreetPass for with all the new StreetPass enabled games coming out...

 

[NeoRausch]

You know what fucking rocks?

living in the german city wiith the highest japanese population in the country.
Had 21 streetpasses yesterday, normal working day. Also got the card of japan 1/4 filled. Not an easy task to do.japan has soooo many.....cantons? What are they called? Well many of them.

i guess most people here just put in their hometown or of their parents/grandparents.

Got my "get passes for 5 days in a row" archievment yesterday. Working on 10 days now.....i'm afraid of the weekend now!

I had the exact same problem upon loading up Mario Tennis this morning. I ended up deleting Swapnote, as you can only streetpass with friends, which is useless. My 12 streetpass titles are:

Plaza, SF IV, Ridge Racer, Freakyforms, Mario Land 3D, Mario Kart, Crush, Kid Icarus, DoA, Rhythm Thief, M&S Virtual Cards (just until September), and Mario Tennis.

Can't imagine I'll get too many results from e majority of those. In my (limited) experience, I've only got results from Plaza, Mario Kart, 3D Land and Street Fighter.

Lol. Cantons? Then again if you were american you would say states or provinces. They are called prefectures, in English.

It really is terrible.

 

[spyhunterzero]

Man, I wish I knew where to find more people to street pass. My job has run dry and I haven't gotten a hit in a month.

Does the game tell you you've hit the limit when you try to register a 13th game?

 

[You Are Viewtiful]

I play way too many DS games on my 3DS and forget to turn them off >_<

 

[Nekobo]

I grabbed about 400 something street passes during Fanime two months ago. Anime conventions are the prime places to load up on them.

Fixed. Got probably 100 at Phoenix Comic Con, and that was with barely checking to take in new streetpasses.

Yes. You will be notified.

One of my customers had a 3DS with them the other day. I almost always have my 3DS on the bar for such an occasion, and was gutted to see that he was playing Pokemon. Sadly I didn't have time to tell him to shut down his game in time.

 

[The Elite]

I would dump Nintendo 3DS sound first. I get nothing with that.

HOLY FRIGGING CRAP. That's insane. Insane. I have less than 100 tags and about 80 in my Plaza. Most from Disneyland last year, a few random ones here and there. Once got one in bad traffic in my car!

 

[hunnies28]

Streetpass tags 139
Plaza population 541
Hopefully Comic con will fix this !

I would deactivated StreetPass for Swapnote, but I like getting random StreetPass Swapnotes from my friends, lol.

I get a good amount of StreetPass tags from all my enabled titles (excluding Rhythm Thief, since I only just activated it), though my least active title by far is Sonic Generations. =/ It's a real shame, because I really like swapping profile cards in Generations.

I didn't know there was a limit. This is horrible news!

Yeah, I've been dreading this day since I heard of the 12 title limit for StreetPass since before launch. Though I suppose that once the 3DS XL comes out and I transfer my data over to that, I can use my old Zelda Edition 3DS that I'm keeping for my other StreetPass titles that I can't fit on my XL. Maybe I can get Pokémon Rumble Blast's StreetPass working again that way! But even if I did do that, that still limits me to only 24 StreetPass titles. And I'll reach that limit eventually. XD

I would dump Nintendo 3DS sound first. I get nothing with that.

More people need to activate StreetPass for Nintendo 3DS Sound! Everyone has access to it, so there's no excuse! Just stick some music on your SD card and create a StreetPass playlist, that's all you have to do! I really like the StreetPass for Nintendo 3DS Sound. It was very interesting at the Zelda Symphony seeing everyone with Zelda music set to their StreetPass playlist. XD


Oh, and here's my current StreetPass data:
StreetPass Tags: 4110
Plaza Population: 1081
"Fantastic" Ratings: 100 (max)

 

[ashleyj1988]

I haven't had a streetpass in a few weeks. After countless trips around town, Walmart, several malls, etc.

I look forward to the next Anime convention AWA in Atlanta because I should get a crap ton of streetpasses there! Maybe that will make up for the lack of 3DS in my town.

I didn't even know about that or just don't remember. I've been pretty good about going in and deleting games after I no longer have/play them anymore though. Looks like at the moment I've got Street Pass enabled for Tekken 3D, Mario Tennis Open, Mario Kart 7, Kid Icarus Uprising, Mario 3D Land, RE Revelations, DOA Dimensions, Ridge Racer 3D, and Mii Plaza.

I'm still really looking forward to the Legend of Zelda anniversary concert down in Boston on October 18th. Fully expecting my 3DS to practically burst into flames from all the activity.

Do you maybe live in Düsseldorf? If the answer is yes: I work there too and normally i get 3-4 Streetpass hits per day, it's really neat.

And the japan day five weeks ago was incredible. 105 hits in three hours were sick but it's so annoying to clear the plaza every five minutes. *sigh*

 

[anotherVegan]

Sometimes I get a streetpass from going to the mall, gamestop, etc. I did get about two dozen when I spent some time in the theme parks in Orlando, FL. I find myself taking this thing everywhere in hopes of getting a streetpass.

However, I'm expecting my 3DS to explode with streetpasses when I go to the Zelda Anniversary Concert this weekend!

 

[ActStriker]

Rhythm Thief pushed me to the limit, so I removed Swapnote from it just so I had an open slot.

Have now:
StreetPass Mii Plaza
Mario Kart 7
Mario Tennis Open
Ridge Racer 3D
Super Mario 3D Land
Super Street Fighter IV
Kid Icarus
Pokemon Rumble Blast
Dead or Alive
Theatrhythm
Rhythm Thief

Don't forget to heed the Parakeet's word and set your StreetPass playlist appropriately for the concert! XD My StreetPass playlist was full of songs from the 25th Anniversary CD that came with Skyward Sword and End Credits 2 from the Ocarina of Time 3D soundtrack.

 

[enzo_gt]

50 Miis randomly showed up in my plaza one day, and another random 50 or so another day. Only thing is, I can kind of rationalize how I got my first 50 since I was playing MK7 online for a bit, but really I have absolutely no idea how they got there. Just random people. Anyone knows why this happened? I didn't even leave the house to go anywhere, nor did they show up at my plaza gate and I couldn't play with them.

 

[Zevenberge]

I've seen a few people with my first 3DS. Mostly when I went from home to the university on Monday morning. The fun is that you actually see the same people every week. After my 3DS broke I got a replacement, which deleted all gathered data. Ever since I've had like one or two hits (one from a local news reporter I think). 3DS density is way too low still It should start selling megatons soon.

I've had that also. However, I got >100 in one go. Seeing as my 3DS friends were there, I guess I got them via online play. Not sure about the exact cause though.

 

[enzo_gt]

Also that feel when you've got people your waiting to play with plus more at the Plaza gate, and you can't because your waiting for someone with a fucking white shirt to help you through a dark room in Find Mii :|

That room is VERY annoying, to say it nicely. After my first two playthroughs my 3DS got lost and that room is why I didn't restart it.

I need a white shirt!?

FUCK!! I've been waiting forever and I think I skipped over a white shirt and went straight to plaza gate because I was tired of all my Mii's running away.

White magic bathes the room in sunlight or something. Pretty sure that's the only way to get through the room.

Plus it's annoying because I'm not even sure when I do get someone with a white shirt I'll be able to switch orders like usual so that my other Miis and StreetPassed Miis don't go to waste :/

 

[Zevenberge]

Finally, I got my third streetpass!

... ... ...

Holland sucks in these kinds of things

You should come to me to let us both get a hit I've been more lucky though; I had like 15 hits in total.

Does the 3DS system also register hits when a DS game is active and in sleep mode?

 

[StarCreator]

Nope. Sleep mode streetpass only works if you're in the home menu or in a 3DS game.

 

[Zevenberge]

Nope. Sleep mode streetpass only works if you're in the home menu or in a 3DS game.

That's disappointing. At least it explains why I never get a hit when Pokemon Black is slumbering.

 

[BooJoh]

I got my fourth StreetPass today, and since their location was set to Anguilla, that's my first tag from another country (sadly the system has no map for that one.) My previous two were from here in North Carolina, and my first was from Virginia.

I'd love to fill in the map more, but I don't really travel anymore.

 

[Susurrus]

Question: Is it possible to get the golden key with just rehiring one level 7 mii?

You won't be able to progress through Find Mii 2 with a single Mii, if that's what you're asking. You'll get stopped whenever you run into colored shields or rooms requiring combo magic to clear.

 

[the_painted_bird]

If you live in Richmond, Virginia, you better carry your goddamn 3DS with you everywhere you go. >=[

 

[GolazoDan]

I only ever seem to get Streepasses when I go to the Trafford Centre. One, because I go to GAME and other similar shops. Two, it's the place I usually remember to take my 3DS with me. Think there's a Streetpass event in Manchester in August though.

Or start your own StreetPass group!

[Susurrus]

Not what I am asking. My girlfriend has only 1 level 7 mii (me) and I am trying to figure out how to get her the golden key. We live in Tokyo so sheer numbers is no problem. The golden key just has that rule where you have to use 20 or less miis on the final boss. I was able to do it with two teaming up (someone on one of my commutes I never met but consistently tag and her) but I don't know if a single can do it hy just keep rehiring.

 

[ashleyj1988]

Went to a convention in Athens, Georgia today...got a little over 10 Street Pass tags!! I hope to go to a meet up once they get more people to like their facebook page and get meet ups running in Georgia.

 

[Candeldandel]

I've got a few streetpasses (a little over 150, I think). However, Portland is not awash in 3DSs, so most of them are from the Zelda Symphony my friend and I went to in Vancouver, BC. Now I have a freakin' TON of Canadians on my 3DS, lol

I can't wait for PAX, though, cause yeah. Yeah...

 

[olimpia84]

Got a total of (I think) 101 streetpasses today at the Zelda Symphony concert
I could have gotten more probably but I didn't get there early enough to start receiving Miis. I have most panels completed now and most importantly, all purple pieces collected

 

[Tyeforce]

There is a limit? How much?

12 titles.

Huh.
Is this for the Dark Emperor on the secret quest, and does it just count for that guy or the Ultimate Ghost as well?
The same guides I've been looking at say it has 250 HP and it casts the level down spell, so if you kept using a single max level Mii you would do 18 damage per visit assuming you never miss and never get a critical so you would be able to kill it in 14 visits.
On the other hand, I just did a quick search for how to get the golden key and they all list actual strategies involving teams and using magic instead of just running at it with a single Mii so maybe I did some calculation wrong or there is another requirement to get the key.

Perhaps. She has 300 coins (max) so I guess it won't hurt to try. Thanks for the info.

 

[MarkusRJR]

I just realized I haven't received a StreetPass in nearly 8 months. I live in a big city and I carry my 3DS with me in my backpack when I'm at university, so you'd imagine I'd get a bunch. I used to get like 3 or 4 a day until last Winter, then it all slowed down until I finally stopped getting them all together. WTF? I'll never even get to Find Me 2 at this rate. :'(

Also, I have a question: Do you receive StreetPasses when you're playing a 3DS game like Zelda: OoT, a game where they cut off wireless connections, and you pop back out into the home menu with the game running in the background? I've been playing Zelda recently and I'm worried I'll miss out on one so I have to save the game and close it completely. Now, anyone who's played Zelda: OoT knows that you end up in Kokiri Forest or at the beginning of the dungeon when you start it up. It's such a bitch to have to get back to where I was constantly. Sorry if what I said doesn't make sense... I just woke up like 10 minutes ago and I'm a bit out of it.
