Grazza Posted December 29, 2011 Posted December 29, 2011 Hopefully it just went through your wall, @Ollie!
Ollie Posted December 29, 2011 Posted December 29, 2011 But I live in a flat and I know my neighbour doesn't have a 3DS (he doesn't even game) and where my flat is situated, no one would be close enough even through a wall. Oh well, time to reinstate the webcam ^^
Agent Gibbs Posted December 30, 2011 Posted December 30, 2011 well i bought my girlfriend a red 3DS fro christmas so i've had a hit each day since then lol but today in Leeds i got 4 hits in the space of 40 min, i think the 3DS must have sold well over christmas, i also bought pokemon rumble in games sale (got it for £10 after using reward points) but in the queue 2 different people were buying 3DS and i noticed a few had 3DS games
Grazza Posted December 30, 2011 Posted December 30, 2011 Three Miis today, two of them new. The new ones had been playing Mario Land and Mario Kart. Still no new Puzzle Swap pieces though.
Gentleben Posted December 30, 2011 Posted December 30, 2011 (edited) It's unlilkely anyone who lives in Birmingham on this forum will attend, however I'm mentioning that tomorrow I'II be at the Food loft for a 3DS streetpass type event. http://www.meetup.com/Nintendo3DS/Birmingham-GB/ Edited December 31, 2011 by Gentleben
Mike Posted December 30, 2011 Posted December 30, 2011 Ah, shame it's not a little further away in Solihull - that's where I'll be tomorrow!
Gentleben Posted December 31, 2011 Posted December 31, 2011 Ah, shame it's not a little further away in Solihull - that's where I'll be tomorrow! Solihull and Birmingham City centre is only a short bus/train ride away.
Eightbit Posted December 31, 2011 Posted December 31, 2011 The Trafford Centre is the place to be! Was there for around three hours yesterday and got five different hits, one from Australia too. Although there apparently isn't a map for Oz? For the different countries/ regions.
Mike Posted December 31, 2011 Posted December 31, 2011 Solihull and Birmingham City centre is only a short bus/train ride away. I'm up visiting my parents for New Year, so I had to go into Solihull with them. Still got one StreetPass, though.
Gentleben Posted December 31, 2011 Posted December 31, 2011 While wondering around Birmingham City Centre today, I got nine hits, including some more pink puzzle pieces, and one more hit at the Streetpass 3D event, all in all pretty good.
Mandalore Posted December 31, 2011 Posted December 31, 2011 Birmingham sounds like a good place to be for a 3DS owner! Unfortunately I'm a bit too far away from it for a quick trip. Got a load there when I went for Gamefest a few months back. The first Cardiff StreetPass meetup of 2012 is being done on the 14th January. Info can be found on the Official Meetup site and Facebook. Gentleben if you're still looking to get some Welsh StreetPasses then it's at least a few guaranteed there, and anyone else who may be interested.

Sadly thats the first weekend in Jan I'm working (unless you count today?)
Josh64 Posted January 1, 2012 Posted January 1, 2012 Hi guys! I just opened my 3DS to find I met someone via street pass apparently 5 hours ago. The thing is I was at work 5 hours ago and the 3DS hasn't been out the house for a few days....did someone with a 3DS come in my house whilst I was out or is the timing not very accurate? It doesn't happen often but I sometimes get Street Pass hits late. My friend at work has a 3DS and so whenever I go to work I get one off him but the one day I was casually playing Mario Kart at about 1am in my room and got a Street Pass off him. So I'm guessing it can sometimes be late (or he was just sneaking into my bedroom, uninvited)
Brussel Posted January 1, 2012 Posted January 1, 2012 I got my first non-housemate street pass in months yesterday. In a small town in North Wales that's pretty big news. I only nipped out for a pizza and some bottles of beer and squealed with joy at seeing the green light. No puzzle pieces from it and a level 1 Mii in my current SPQ room was useless. Still nice to expand my plaza.

I only nipped out for a pizza and some bottles of beer and squealed with joy at seeing the green light. Whereabouts? The Summer holidays were good for hits in North Wales. Always got some at Llandudno and Caernarfon, now I just get them from demo units when I visit Bangor, but I did get my first 'human' hit on Anglesey the other day, at Morrisons in Holyhead, from someone who seemed to have recived the console for Christmas, so hopefully things will begin to improve, otherwise roll on Summer 2012!
Brussel Posted January 1, 2012 Posted January 1, 2012 Bangor is where I'm based. I've taken it to Llandudno once and got a couple. Even got a random one in Conwy during the Medieval Food Festival. Bangor tends not to yield many least not in lower Bangor.
darksnowman Posted January 7, 2012 Posted January 7, 2012 Can you choose what puzzle to buy a piece for?
BowserBasher Posted January 7, 2012 Posted January 7, 2012 Can you choose what puzzle to buy a piece for? Nope, buying puzzle pieces is totally random. Been getting a lot more hits recently. When I have it in work, I can get 3 or 4 hits in a 6 hour period. Even today I took it into town with me, (Northampton town centre) and got 3 hits in about 3 hours, and they weren't store 3DS, they seemed real.
dazzybee Posted January 8, 2012 Posted January 8, 2012 Awesome, got 4 hits in Lincoln and managed to open all the rest of the puzzles and get a red piece. Anyone else think the red pieces have been distributed to game shops?
Ike Posted January 13, 2012 Posted January 13, 2012 Got a personal high of 4 hits yesterday after a couple of weeks of pretty much nothing, and finished the first run of Street Quest! Also got the final pink puzzle piece of the Donkey Kong Country Returns puzzle. And completed my first puzzle! A lot of people have either Mario Land 3D or Letterbox as there previously played title.
Hero-of-Time Posted January 13, 2012 Posted January 13, 2012 Is it true that you can't transfer your Street Quest stuff over to a new 3DS? I've heard that you have to start from scratch if you decide to get a new 3DS at some point, which is a massive pain if true.
Mokong Posted January 14, 2012 Author Posted January 14, 2012 I picked up 5 StreetPasses in Dublin city centre yesterday, my best SP day ever (previous best was 2) one pass being our own @Diageo... though Diageo didn't have any new puzzle pieces for me....GGGRRRRR, haha. Picked up a few new puzzles too. And managed to get a purple piece for one puzzle, taking it from the 5th SP I got... no idea how that person got it though.... anyone figured out yet how to get those initially via the Spotpass?
darksnowman Posted January 14, 2012 Posted January 14, 2012 Nope, buying puzzle pieces is totally random. I thought when I bought my first non-Mario Galaxy 2 puzzle piece that I selected to do that myself, then the other day when I was buying a few, it was zipping back and forward giving me pieces for different puzzles. I kept buying more puzzle pieces to see if I could figure out how to control it again.

I kept buying more puzzle pieces to see if I could figure out how to control it again. I don't know then. Whenever I have gone to buy puzzle pieces it just automatically picks a random piece from a puzzle I have started on.
