Nintendo 3DS StreetPass Demonstration

StreetPass is a cool new social feature built into the Nintendo 3DS. It allows you to exchange data with other players as you walk past them in real life. This means you get to see their Mii arrive on your system, learn what game they last played as well as read through a few questions they answered about themselves. Don’t worry, none of the information is personal, it’s all game related for the most part. Our video demo below features 2 3DS systems to showcase what each player would see when exchanging data.

  4. the mii plaza has some basic profile questions. If you say you like cats you get only cats, if you say you like dogs most then you get dogs as hired heroes


  5. Great in-depth look! :) So can you only fight with mii heroes once after you’ve tagged them? And when you do, can you not get a puzzle piece from them anymore?

    Thanks Josh.


    1. Broken_Cartridge

      You can do streetpass with someone once a day. So you can use someone each time you do streetpass with them.

      In Find Me, for every time you’ve encountered someone their level will go up (i.e. the first time I street pass with you, you will be level 1, the second time I streetpass with you you will be level 2, etc)

      Puzzle swap will be the same regardless of how many encounters, but the person needs to have different pieces then you do in order for you to gain anything.


  6. hey josh whats your american 3ds friend code. mine is 2578 3113 5352


  7. hey josh, on your friend roster video you posted the comment saying you added everyone above that comment but you still didn’t register me :( lol


    1. Broken_Cartridge

      Regardless, it’s his Japanese system that he was registering people on. Meaning that now that he has an North American one he will probably rarely use the Japanese one.


  8. [...] Direct link here Permalink [...]

  9. Looks like the wireless is really great!


  10. Thanks for this. When i saw this, this morning i had yet to recieve a “pass.” However, today at school i got one mii, which was pretty darn awesome.

    Note: I screamed like a girl when i saw the green notification light!


  11. Hey Joshy Can you please add me on your American 3DS
    My Friend Code is: 3823 8501 0517
    My Name Is: Nas


    1. add me mines 3523-2040-7626.


    2. Did he added you?


  12. Thenintendohub

    Hey josh i have a question when the other persons mii is in your plaza can you put the mii in your mii maker plaza?


    1. Broken_Cartridge

      Only if the person enables Mii sharing


  13. How bad is the battery drain on the system when using street pass?


    1. Broken_Cartridge

      When you put your system into sleep mode (for street pass) the system barely uses any battery whatsoever. I had my system on all day in sleep mode and still had a lot of battery left


  14. How many miis fit on StreetPass?


  15. If you play all the AR Games,you can get extra content.Like a second version of a another game.But you have to pay play coins to get them.Also,I think Blue system = Cats,Black system = Dogs.


    1. no. i have the black one and i get cats


    2. Broken_Cartridge

      In the Mii Plaza, if you have edited you Mii Settings (Mii Plaza > Your Mii > Mii Settings) They ask you questions. One of those questions is “Dogs or Cats?” That decides whether or not a dog or a cat is chosen to fight for you, and if you haven’t chosen an answer I’m pretty sure it’s either random or cats by default. (everyone I’ve talked to has had a cat by default fight for them until they answered the question)


  16. [...] worry, streetpass works between different region consoles. http://www.thebitblock.com/2011/03/2…n-explanation/ Shows american and japanese consoles using streetpass between each [...]

  17. i haev a question does the street pass work when ur system is off or does it have to be in sleep mode plz answer my question


    1. System has to be on or in stand by mode.


      1. Hey Josh, I have a question for you. It’s been about 6 weeks and you haven’t added me yet. It keeps saying please make sure your friend also adds your friend code. Can you add me because I can’t wait any longer. I just wanted you to add me because I just want to know when your playing your 3DS and your Favorite Game and whatnot. Before I leave here’s my friend code and my Mii’s name.

        Friend Code: 4468-1107-6432
        Name: Raymond

        Please Reply back and add me.


  18. Question: if you go to a place with, like, 20 people near you playing a 3DS, does the nearest person have the little conversation with you and then the the rest just plop in the Mii Plaza or do they all just have a giant conversation?


    1. Broken_Cartridge

      They will all say something to you at the gate.


  19. Another question – Can you copy the miis you pass by and add them to your plaza?


    1. Broken_Cartridge

      I’m assuming that you meant Mii Maker (because when you encounter someone through Streetpass their mii is entered into your Mii Plaza) If so, press A on the Mii from Mii Plaza that you want in Mii Maker and then select “Mii Maker” it will transfer them into Mii Maker.

      But if the only reason for you doing that is so that those Mii’s could potentially show up in other games, there is a feature called “Invite Mii” (Mii Plaza > Settings > Invite Mii) If turned on “Mii characters in your plaza may show up in other games you play! Keep an eye out for them!”


  20. Black or blue 3ds? Which one is “better”?


    1. Broken_Cartridge

      That all boils down to your personal preferences. I originally was all for the blue one…until I saw it in front of me. It looked more “glittery” then the pictures showed, so I found it to be more of girl version (just my opinion), and I went with black.


  21. Lil’ Maniac

    when i get a 3DS(this may after my SATs) plz add me. i no im askin now even when i dnt hav 1 but still…
