Yesterday I StreetPassed

My flatmate has bought a 3DS. Streetpass Quest is about to become a whole lot easier...

Another Streetpassee contacted me on Twitter today.
They streetpassed me in Cheltenham.
Again, I've never been to Cheltenham.
What is going on?

Are you sure they're "In" Cheltenham and not just "From" there?

Nope. "In".

2 of my housemates now have a 2DS so basically anytime I turn mine on I get them, which isn't so bad as it's slowly building up my street pass battle army

Today I streetpassed.....

Adolf Hitler from Germany....   

Yes, seriously. Someone actually did that. I won't repeat his greeting message, but suffice to say it would have been enough to shut down LetterBox.

Anyone else had disturbing Streetpasses?

Sorry for the double post, but I just streetpassed Joe Skrebels from ONM.

I got Loki the other day.

Bet you were up all night to get that one.

Some weird chap with a beard, glasses and a tea cup on his head.

WHO'S THAT FORUMITE?

I just got it.

A girl with blond hair and sparkles in her eyes, whose favourite colour is pink, and whose greeting was "hello faggots". Books and covers etc.

Not Streetpassed, but I did encounter an "Andrew" in the "Passersby" bit of Pokémon Y on the train home last night.

I game him a "Nice!" and he used the Experience Boost Level 2 O-Power on me.

No eye contact was made or words spoken.

Filthy.

I didn't learn until yesterday that a 3DS could only StreetPass ten other consoles on one 'run'. That's a wee bit disappointing, as I've been loads of places (i.e. city centres, games shops, schools) over the last week where I should have been able to get much, much more. I've consistently had ten SP hits a day over the last six days of work though, so made a fair dent into StreetPass Quest II and completed a couple of the pictures.

I wasn't sure if that was the case, but I suspected it. That's really annoying. Surely it's a particular pain in the arse for people who go to games conventions and stuff, because it means you constantly have to check your StreetPass stuff throughout the day to make sure you don't leave with only 10 hits?

I remember barely getting a word out of ZJ at HyperJapan for precisely this reason. I agree that it's more than a bit rubbish.

Over both my 3DS's I street passed 16 people, the really weird part is they were all different.. I thought if you know you get a hit from someone and if you did have 2 consoles that they would both get it.   

The system is a funny one, I'll admit, and with Relay points liberally sprinkled around the place (they can be found in Marks & Spencer*, Argos, Subway and Wetherspoon's) it's time that Nintendo pushed it up a bit.

However, you can still collect hits for games with StreetPass functionality: Theatrhythm allows you 24 hits before it's full, and Kid Icarus has an upper limit of 50 (!).

I will be better behaved at Hyper Japan next time, promise.

Aero Porter offers space for 99, which is, let's say, "optimistic".

Major train stations (IE: National Rail with more than two platforms) generally have access points, too.

The train station has been a godsend for StreetPass hits, it strangely only seems to be 6 I'll get from a hotspot at one time but it's definitely hiked up my progress in the games.

Today I was out at the Edinburgh Fringe, and got 21 hits, including a fellow from Japan, two Germans, a Frenchman and someone from Sweden, as well as a mix of Scots and English folks. Good haul all round!

WHAT

I have to walk down the Royal Mile to get from one job to another, and the most I've gotten is 6! LAME

To be fair, I was out in Edinburgh from 11am till 9pm, so it's not too surprising.

You've got your 3DS in a Golden Age of StreetPassing. It wasn't too long ago that I was spending hours in Central Station working my fundraising job and getting two, maybe three hits. Nowadays, be it in Edinburgh, Dundee, Glasgow and Aberdeen (or even the likes of Ayr and Kilmarnock), I can usually get the full ten hits in a very short space of time.

I've completed all the Puzzle slides, except the Mega Man one. That'll be filled soon enough...

Yeah, very keen to get back to Edinburgh once the uni term starts up for all that Streetpassing - Dunfermline isn't particularly rife with Streetpass hits.
