Posted March 30, 2011 Will be going to my girlfriend tomorrow, which means I'll be crossing the entire Netherlands by train.I'm bound to meet someone!!!!! Don't be so foolish, no one actually lives in the Netherlands! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 31, 2011 Anyone figured out the distance this thing works at yet? No matches for me so far. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 31, 2011 The WiFi range is 30m. I'd guess that in the real-world that StreetPass should work within around 20-25m. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 31, 2011 I just went to Bristol, went into two Games and one Gamestation, walked past loooads of people... and didn't get a single street pass Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 31, 2011 Awesome, got 2 hits at Westfield. Oh crap i got Justin b in my plaza now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 31, 2011 Got 5 today, left it under the counter in work :p hoping for more though, I love this whole streetpass idea. I got a Mii called Kaytee after walking around Bristol on Tuesday, I guess that was yours. It was the first visitor to my Mii Plaza, thanks. :p I just went to Bristol, went into two Games and one Gamestation, walked past loooads of people... and didn't get a single street pass I went in all of those a couple days ago, and I got 4 streetpasses (maybe not all from the shops themselves though). One was called cabot, which I assume is the shop demo unit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 31, 2011 Hooray, my second in two days! =p It's not much, but more than I expected. Judging from the time, he must have been on the train. Hmmm, let's see if I see someone who looks like the Mii. =p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 31, 2011 Alright, I think I now know how this here Streetpass works. After having crossed the whole of The Netherlands from South to North, and not having encountered anyone; I realised that there was a NINTENDO 3DS Event in the North. I headed there with my girl and started to adjust two 3DSs which were on display, initiating Streetpass and creating Miis that would be used in a Streetpass endeavour. With my own 3DS casually resting in my inner pocket, I hoped for the best. AND WOULDN'T YOU KNOW IT! When we got back, the light was flashing green I must've met someone, for I live in one of the most densely populated countries on the planet. Only a total douchebag would hurry off to a 3DS event, manipulate the 3DSs on display for its own personal gain, and pretend that he met someone on the street; an actual fellow NINTENDO 3DS owner:laughing: No Sir, not me, I really met someone:D TWO, in fact Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 31, 2011 Streetpass is so unpredictable. I went to Bradford the other day and picked up 6 mii, today I went to Meadowhall and not a single Mii. Weird. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 31, 2011 Streetpass is so unpredictable. I wonder if its like the Wii, waiting so many minutes before checking? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted April 1, 2011 Passed a fella on the Northern Line this morning. Whooped his ass at SF IV 3D figure battle heh AND got a new piece towards finishing the Zelda puzzle ^_^ Anyone know how street pass works when two people are together for a long period of time and someone else passes them? I've been it that situation before and only one of us got 'passed' :/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 1, 2011 Was in Bristol again today, for longer this time, again went into all the game/gamestation/hmv/cex, etc stores and had a look around each and again NO street passes, this thing sucks... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Try it midday on Saturday. In smaller cities I imagine shopping centres at weekends to be the best chance at passing someone until Nintendo sell more of the pocket wonders.

Posted April 1, 2011 Depends which Game you work in - Galleries about 3, Cabot Circus about 4. Cabot and I finished at 3 so that's probably why. As KKOB said, best time is weekends as that's definitely the busiest time, plus it's half term now so should stay busy for a while :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 1, 2011 Well I'm not going to go all the way to Bristol tomorrow just for a street pass hit! I'm in again on Tuesday for a job interview so I'll do the rounds again and hopefully pick someone up, third time lucky Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted April 1, 2011 Got 3 more streetpasses in Bristol today. I wasn't expecting any, as I went nowhere near any of the shops. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 1, 2011 Why is this so dastardly addictive and compelling? I never thought I would get caught up so gravely in collecting Mii's. I feel a new obsession coming up... This can't end well. =p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted April 1, 2011 Yay! Got my first Street Pass this morning on my way to work . Had a battle on SFIV but I haven't checked to see who won, probably the other guy since I haven't played mine properly yet. Got a Mario hat from Mii Quest and another piece of my Pikmin puzzle. Streetpass will be great for any future instore events. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
