Last night my 18month old daughter cried when I told her I got no streepass hits yesterday. I tried to explain it was due to playing Fire Emblem Shadow Dragon but she wouldn't listen.

What will I do?

How attached to her are you and what age are you and your partner? Is it too late to start again and raise a new child that understands Nintendo fundamentals from day one?

Don't hang on to a dud!

I'm afraid you will need to purchase a DS for her to ensure daily hits. You should also look into enrolling her in some sort of special technology preschool - no time to wait for formal education, she must learn the rudiments of operating handheld devices and basic computing.

Fire emblem might be pushing it however, better to start her on advance wars.

Lie....plain and simple.

"I got a streetpass from Santa!"

Cue cuteness and eventual teenage resentment.

Decided to bring my 3DS to Dublin on Sunday (was seeing the Used)
Met some guy from New York, 2 from Dublin + someone with no location :cool:

Also got the bassist + singer of The Used when i met them :P So jealous they were playing Kid Icarus recently though, i don't have it yet :pac:
Not a bad result at all.

I was inb Dublin yesterday and today but only managed two streetpasses excluding my friend. It was pretty disappointing seeing as we spent the entire day yesterday in busy parts of the city. It's also interesting that neither of the hits were before 4pm, even though I was probably in the busiest parts of the city between 11am and 2pm.

The weird thing, however, is that when we arrived back at the hotel we saw that each of us had met two different people. Makes no sense seeing as we were literally side by side for the whole time. The only explanation we could think of was that each system can only exchange data with one other system during a ~5 second window, meaning the other was out of range by the time the first streetpass had taken place.

Also, I left my charger in the hotel. :rolleyes:

Got a bunch of Streetpasses in Paris during the week.

I met Miis from France, Spain, Netherlands, Japan, Austria, UK, and Denmark!

One of the Japanese Miis I met had over 3000 Streetpass hits, and almost all puzzle pieces.

I'll probably be around some shops in Galway tomorrow, so hopefully I'll get some more hits there too.

I streetpassed someone from the Limousin region yesterday (and got the 30 regions accomplishment), realized its where limousine derived its name from.

Kildare seems to have no 3ds owners I've been in dublin 4 times the past couple of months and never brought my 3ds. I don't have any puzzle panels complete and I don't even have half of them. I use it to play games :P

So jealous.

Streetpass rules my life. I've got 253 hits since Christmas. I have 229/385 puzzle pieces and the only pink pieces I'm missing are all the ones from the new Mario tennis puzzle.

It makes me so sad to see "Looks like he doesn't have any pieces for you."

Its the best thing about 3DS.

Now to make some real friends....

I have at least 12 Kildarians... and I make 13!
Come to sunny Celbridge, we have a 24 hour Tesco and occasional streetpass hits!

@PrincessPeach : If they were your real friends they'd buy a 3DS and give you some Streetpass love!

Nollog

How to troll a 3DS user:
1. enable streetpass on a common game such as Mario Kart 7.
2. disable streetpass for streetpass plaza.
3. walk around with your 3DS.

Infuriated me the other day.

Nicely done. I'm nearing twenty right now, so I should get it soon. Us Irish are at an advantage given that we have 26 regions, compared with the whole of Britain which has four.

We'll be screwed when we get the map update along with the accomplishment "Met Mii characters from every region in your country".

I've only met Miis from counties Mayo, Galway, Meath, and Dublin. Anyone have an extensive list?

Just Like Heaven

How are ever gonna get that achievement? They don't even have electricity in most of Connaught, never mind 3ds'.

Wolverine359

Maxed out on 10 hits today (and btw mr ^, all were from Galway, except one, from Roscommon ). Met someone from Florida the other day, and got my first Australian hit too, from Tazmania!! :pac:

Wow, maxing out in a single day in Galway? Most I've met in a day there has been five, and I only met one last time I was there!

Reveal your secrets! :pac:

Wolverine359

Just did a lot of wandering about! Sometimes you'd get two or three in one spot (HMV is the place to be ). Same happened last Sunday during the bank holiday weekend, and within a 2-hour timeframe too! Oh, and cycling seems to help, I'm pretty sure 3 or 4 of today's hits were while I was on the bike (from passing cars or buses, it definitely happens that way at least a few times a week while I'm on the way to town or the gym or something, I'd check it before and after a journey and being greeted with a little green light is an absolute delight!).

That's amazing, seeing as that's the day I only got one.
I must have been around the city for about four hours, too. Speaking of HMV, I haven't encountered the Apoc or HMV Miis in ages...

Princess Peach

APOC???

I met him at Heuston once :eek:

They're back! They were gone for a while it seems but they've been active again for the past few weeks, anytime I'm there I usually meet both of them instantly. They've got all the special puzzle pieces that I have now (and I'm pretty sure they received them from me first , I got a lot of pink pieces during a holiday in San Fran and have been seeding them ever since).

Awesome to know they're back! Both of those guys had an excellent selection of puzzle pieces.

I'm missing somewhere in the region of thirty pink pieces, so I had better up my streetpassing rate. :pac:

Princess Peach

The only pink pieces I'm missing are the ones from Mario Tennis. Have all the rest :cool:

Wolverine359

Yeah the HMV and Apoc Miis are great for helping me defeat those golems and marauding mummies in the streetpass quest (nearly through the secret quest for the third time, it's great fun finding new hats, got a cool bear one yesterday), and the odd puzzle piece (though i have all of theirs already, i supplied them with most of the pink pieces too). When we cross paths again, you should receive a fantastic rating from me. We should organise a streetpass meet-up actually, not that it's really necessary anyway since Galway is the streetpass capital of Ireland, oh yeah. :pac:

robman60

The proposed meetup in Dublin hasn't had much activity lately, so maybe we could get a meetup organised in Galway? It would be pretty cool to meet the people behind the usernames!

I'll be finished school next week, so sometime around the end of the month would suit well, although exams for others go well into June.

This is slightly OT, so I guess we should keep it to PMs from now on.

I think he said dublin 4 times, not dublin 4, times.

Wolverine359

Maxed out again today, that's three weekends in a row! I actually got 11 hits because I received MK7 data half an hour after the last mii plaza hit. 3ds owners were out in force - Galway is on streetpass fire!

Anyone finish the Beat the Beat Rhythm Paradise panel? Got the last puzzle piece I needed for that - the wrestler is hilarious, and obscene! :pac:

What's the deal with the pink puzzle pieces?

Wolverine359

fewtinsoffroth wrote: »

They can only be received through a streetpass with someone who has a few of them. The other pieces can be got randomly by using play coins. Pink pieces are the hardest to get, so anytime you streetpass someone who has them, make sure to pick one of them instead of the ordinary pieces.

robman60

Got a streetpass while in GameStop in Castlebar two days ago, and I also passed one of those trolls who enabled streetpass for MK7, but not for Mii plaza. :mad:

Ruined my day, that did. :pac:

I should be around Galway city for a while tomorrow afternoon, so hopefully I'll get some pink pieces! I'll definitely pick up Mario Tennis too!

Wolverine359

^another possibility for the mk7 hit but no mii plaza hit could be that their mii plaza had reached the 10 mark, happened me last Saturday, just got mk7 data because my mii plaza was already full. (did this happen last Saturday actually? could of been me. :pac:)
oh, make sure to visit hmv, got 3 hits there today, after just popping in for a minute!

robman60

No, I haven't been in Galway for a couple of weeks, so it couldn't have been you.

I'll be sure to call to HMV, hopefully I'll meet the Apoc and HMV Miis and anything else would be a bonus! If you're around town between 2:30 and 3:30 I may pass you too. :P

Wolverine359

Shucks, I'll be working, but I'll be dropping by at lunchtime, around 1:30. Wanted to send you a fantastic rating.

Agh, I'll probably be around in the coming weeks even if I don't pass you tomorrow.

*Makes plans to stalk Wolverine359's workplace :pac:

Star Lord

Get a room you two!!!

Wolverine359

got 8 hits in town while I was on my lunchbreak today! Met 2 Bavarians who had over 2500 hits between them, they had Every puzzle piece.

nitromaster

In London yesterday, got one in Stansted yesterday morning. then got 3 while at a music festival.....Then at 3am last night i got a repeat hit from one of the 3 i got at the music festival....that was kinda weird....very weird!

gubbie

I got my first Street Pass last weekend. I normally have it on. Been around Cork city, into UCC but never got a hit. Was starting to think it was broken. Then 3 hours out in Dun Laoghaire I got a hit. Do Cork people not like the 3ds?!

robman60

I got a StreetPass yesterday while in Westport which is really rare even though I nearly always have it with me around town...

I unexpectedly ended up going to Galway this evening, and I got two hits there. I got seven hits while there on the same day last week, so it's interesting how much it varies.

Slowly approaching 100 hits now. :pac:

CastorTroy

I managed to get 8 yesterday. Most I've got in one day so far. Was at the 2D festival in Derry.

Wolverine359

Just finished the Kid Icarus puzzle panel, the 3D action in it is Awesome!! Just need 9 more pieces to finish all the puzzles (376/385, just need one more for MK7 and 8 for mario tennis).

Josey Wales

I have been getting very few Streetpass hits lately in Dublin. In the past three weeks I've only had one hit.

smokingman

Been on a weeks holiday with the family in Clifden and spent most of the time going to a load of "play centres" (bouncy castles, mazes, etc) and pet farms so my son can run around in circles for a few hours and tire himself out before bed.

As a result though, I've had loads of hits from kids on school tours and others being out with their parents.

Only bad thing is, hardly any of them had any puzzle pieces I didn't have

Mii's name was Malone. The only other people I've met in Westport have been you and someone named Meg.

Still trying to convince my friends to get 3DSes. :rolleyes:

Wolverine359

I've just streetpassed someone with the last puzzle piece i needed to complete my collection of all 385 pieces, yay!! now to wait for the inevitable NSMB2, Luigi's Mansion and Paper Mario: Sticker Star puzzles to come on stream...

If you're looking for more to collect, there's now the Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games virtual card collection to complete. Can download the app for free from the eShop

Sounds good, will have to keep up the streetpassing so! come to Galway guys, the Volvo Ocean Race is fantastic for getting hits!
