12 games. The data transfer is a fixed size...
Kill both simultaneously gems are a right pain.
Wait, so Europe does get the 6-pass relays starting today!?
Aww yeah.

Ugh, yes. I got one randomly but I'm not even going to try for the others.
I just need to complete two more levels without getting hit to achieve that ticket and then I'm going to switch over to playing arcade mode.

I've had my 3DS for 2 years, since I started university. I was lucky to get 1 or 2 streetpasses a month. Since Pokemon XY came out, I usually get 6 a day.
Also invested in the 4 extra Mii Plaza games a few weeks back. They're fun but kind of tedious.

As a new 3ds owner I was surprised when on my first day I got 6 street passes. I think I got them from the Nintendo Zones (still not sure how those work) at two different starbucks.
A few days ago I got lots of actual street passes, I think it was because of the heat's game in the area, there were lots of people.
How good are the other Street Plaza games? I heard some of them were quite good, but if they are like the Puzzle one or the Find Mii I wonder if it is worth getting them.

The extra games are probably of more value to those of us that have had our 3DS for a while and have completely finished Find Mii - it was clear we needed more content because there was nothing left for us to do (besides complete new puzzles as they come out, but the time investment needed there is sort of trivial), and I think the extra games were a fun way to deliver it.
I wonder if Pokemon has changed the Streetpass field here at all; most of my random Streetpasses on my daily commute are still from relays though more of them are sporting Pokemon than anything else. Last year, before the relays were up, I went to a Wizards game and got absolutely nothing.

i saw this mentioned on the nintendo direct. is it in the US already or soon? if i could get 6 people i would actually go to nintendo zones.
also best buy is a nintendo zone right? so in theory you could have it in your pocket and walk around best buy for a few minutes and thats all it takes?
i really like monster manor but its prob best to focus on just one for now unless you meet a lot of people via street pass

This has been live in the US for some time.
Best Buy is supposedly a Nintendo Zone, but for whatever reason Home Depot gives me better results.

I got a Gold Mii at Starbucks this morning.
Another one!? Or was it Aonuma, and you just never got it previously?

It was an Olympic snowboard lady.
I think US people were finding this was the case.
Why must progress always come with problems, Nintendo
In spite of the expanded relays I managed to get pretty much the same number of tags as usual (~15 for every game).
I knew I was setting myself up for disappointment for expecting to hit 30 plaza tags easily.
Seriously. 4-3 is fucking dumb. Any gems that require you to destroy 2 things simultaneously are a crapshoot.
In other news I got all of the Monster Mansion weapons and now.. I'm kind-of sad. It's the most addictive game by far but the loot hunt was sorta what made me like it so much
I got the Jamie Anderson Mii from a relay point!
I just needed one more pink puzzle piece, so the timing works out nicely.
Any reason why a random snowboarder was the special Mii? Perhaps promoting the new Mario & Sonic game even though it's not coming out for the 3DS?

3-1 was considerably easy when I realise they are one-hit kill ... so I just had to loose a ship or 2 in the bullet rain and it was done =P
...
Gem 3 and 5 of 4-3 are still impossible =P
But I have faith that 2 full powered black bombs (one front and other back) might work... but needs some testing
...one of the reason why I will try to do the relay at home thing someday
Just got the Gold Mii via HomePass.
Effects:
Mii Force: "Check out my Shiny Special Attack!" - Comes with a floating, moving gold orb that shoots automatically. It moves around your entire ship with momentum.
Flower Town: Nothing different that I can tell
Warrior's Way: 10 000 Free Soldiers
Monster Manor: Free gift with your puzzle piece (I got Heart Capsule-L), Mii has 5 puzzle pieces to choose from.

Don't worry, because
after you complete floor 50 you are forced to restart and only your currently equipped weapon and your max HP carries over.

I got these last Friday when Thor came out:
It brought me up to 30 people in my plaza and I even got a new State on my map (Illinois). This whole aspect of the 3DS is cool, but so underutilized by me

Symphony of the Goddesses in Chicago on Friday so I'm expecting to get a decent chunk of streetpasses. Would love to play Link Between Worlds long enough to set up streetpass. Also would love to be able to set up streetpass on SMT4 but I've been really slow in playing that.
Thinking 3D Land and maybe even Mario Kart 7 will be taken off my streetpass rotation.
Thinking about upgrading to an XL on Black Friday. Would likely streetpass myself every day in that scenario!

i didn't realize home depot was even one. i have a home depot really close to work. I'm going to swing by there after work tomorrow and try it for 6 (hopefully) its worth it.
but i went to a starbucks today (well the parking lot) and got 6 and the snowboard lady. getting 6 from a nintendo zone is huge to me. I'm been playing monster manor for a while now and using mainly coins but also if i walk around my neighborhood sometimes i get some street passes (1 hour walk got 3). but if getting 6 or so from nintendo zones is normal that would be great. I bought mii force today too
also i got a pokemon mystery dungeon item code from my nintendo zone its apparently a max elixir. so if anyone wants that let me know

I was looking around the theater that day, seeing all the 3DS's in use and thought to myself "Why didn't I think to bring it? I've been taking it everywhere else....".

I have been on 300 play coins for 2 days. Just not had the time to spend them. I really need to as this mansion floor is badly trolling me as the lower floors are all practically full (then again I've got good weapons in every element at >level 10, 50 puzzles done only need 3 team ups, might as well race to the finish).
The monster manor free gift thing happens with owners of the game when you've passed them 10 times (once it seems...unless it happens again at 20) or non-game owners after 20 times.
I'm pretty sure peripherals don't come with CN codes, I don't know why DX bother trying to have a shade of legitimacy by bundling that (plus doesn't it open up legal challenges since you are imitating Nintendo quite clearly with that) when they have all the above.
Flower town; they should be growing a phantom flower (assuming they're like the E3 ones...my only gold Miis :L) so doesn't that give random plants from pollination (or was it random in the same colour or seed group...).

Should happen if total tags are a multiple of 10 regardless of whether they've played the game or not.

Do you guys reckon there will be a Link Between Worlds puzzle soon to collect?
I hope so.
I hope so.
The Pokemon puzzle update came on the release day of the X/Y. Maybe we'll get a few puzzles this Friday when SM3DW and LBW release?Do you guys reckon there will be a Link Between Worlds puzzle soon to collect?

I'd expect a Link Between worlds puzzle closer to the Japanese release date. Japan has always got puzzles first, right? I'll once again cry for the devilish Brain Training puzzle...don't give me that "NOE won't release the game" spiel, we have the Kirby's 20th Puzzle which is also a game NOE did not release.
Normal Spotpass or lame Nintendo zone only one? I've got nothing here making me assume it is the latter.
Ugh. Don't remind me.
Might be a Nintendo Zone thing. I've been out pounding the pavement.
