My best street pass story is about this blue Mii called Sam. He doesn't live anywhere near me. Through the 12 years I had a 3ds, with the Data transferred through 3 systems, we've must have always passed one another at Gamescom when I was still a teen. Then I stopped going there, and Covid happened, and I was done with my 3ds. I had no chance to meet him for 4 years. Anyway, just this winter I took my 3ds to a tech-convention and met him for the 20th time. Have a good one Sam, can't wait for Nr. 21! Though I doubt I'll hack my new 3ds anytime soon, I could revive one of my older 3ds for online streetpass.

That's pretty awesome. My first StreetPass hit ever was a guy named, I forget exactly, something like Polarman? Supposedly from the Nunavut territory in Canada. About 3 or 4 years later we tagged again. It's not as wild a story as yours, but it's neat to think about how we walk right past the same person multiple times and would have never noticed. I wound up becoming kind of a local StreetPass kingpin, always hitting up a bunch of the stores with relay points when I had some free time. I must have been in their systems constantly, always appearing on other patrons' Mii Plazas.

Yeah but that depends on the places you live at. I took my 3DS into so many places, to cities with several 100k people (and even live in a big city) and yet I maybe managed to meet less than 10 Miis, including the few times I went to McD or a gas station (I usually don't visit those places) that had the ability to store a mii at Ninteno Zone or something. It's so absurd that I once met a Mii in the street I live at and once in a special clinic for rather older people in a smaller town.

So many people were changing their setups to max out their visit/battle points to unlock the renown rewards, and a few madlads even managed to actually get 9,999 on both counters. It absolutely crushed me when I booted up a new save after the shutdown (different file of course) and found that I couldn’t update my renown points, meaning all the work that all those people put in to get everything for future playthroughs was for basically nothing. Here’s hoping fans are able to fully restore Spotpass functionality for all those poor tired souls.

the switch 2 should come with a keychain device that gathers streetpasses while you're away, because the switch is too big for most peeps to carry around like a phone or old handheld. anyway, so when you get back and turn our switch on, the streetpasses from the keychain device get dumped to the switch and there you go. though the switch should be able to collect streetpasses itself too for when it is brought with you. but i think my keychain idea would be a HUGE hit. with such a small convenient device, and the massive popularity of the switch, streetpasses will come flooding in for many years even on small simple trips like going to pick up some mcd in the drive thru.

Honestly, I feel NetPass should be more like that; it was a guaranteed hit if you went there. Was a great option for someone like me who lived in a rural town; McDonalds was a big spot because everyone went there at least _sometime._

This is a godsend. Edit: Installed it, tried the Train Station, checked 12 hours later and met 2 people. It'll be cool if future updates showed something else besides the netpass app as the last played game for new miis in the plaza. But this is a start. Hopefully it gets more popular.

I think that the luck thing is awesome for replicating the feeling, but I think that each “area” should offer a scaling chance of connection. Maybe have a Train Station have the most connections and have an area, maybe “rural” or “school” where you get a more relaxed flow of street passes. This is obviously not a serious issue, but it’d be fun for replicating the feeling of Streetpass.

Well, NetPass is still quite new. I believe the team responsible for it is working on that.

I went to an anime convention and it’s the only place I’ve found that’s still popping with streetpassers. I got 20 miis from that weekend

Occasionally I'd take mu 3ds to church, because of course I did, and I'd notice I'd get a streetpass hit. I found out it was one of the adults who ran the broadcast that started since covid. And now every week, we chat about 3ds stuff, like hacking, games, and so on. Really cool how the 3ds can be a conversation starter in a way the Switch just isn't, purely because of streetpass. Without it, I'd have never known.

A few weeks ago me and my family went to Seattle for spring vacation and it was really fun! (I even got a tour of NOA and got a gold edition version of the Super Mario Movie vinyl but that's not what I want to talk about.) We went to downtown Seattle and went to the public market there and before we left to go I put my 2DS in my coat pocket. When we got back into the train that took us there I pulled out my 2DS and saw the "green (it was actually rainbow because had a modded 2DS but I'll gloss over that too) light of destiny." And I hadn't gotten one but two streetpasses not from Washington but... Colorado and Texas????? What?

6:20 hmm, maybe a solution to this could be having different “places” give different results? Like with Train Station it’s guaranteed you’ll always get a lot of StreatPasses but with someplace like say Mall it’s more like you get 1-2 Passes, making it more akin to real life? And Plaza gives something more in-between. Not sure how well that would work but would be interesting for people who want a more true to life experience vs a funcional experience

I streetpassed a ton on my old 3DS that I sold sadly during covid. Actually, they were from my aqua blue 3DS! However, I have a moded 2DS XL and my 3DS XL was moded for a while and I've been getting more passes on those.

I think a fun way to replicate the street pass online would be to have a small game where you have a limited amount of time to walk around with other users. Well, other users and NPCs. If you walk past a user, you get a streetpass but you don't for an NPC. It would probably play with the population numbers to balance the feeling of stumbling on a player randomly, but players would be less likely overall. That alone i feel like would help balance feeling like you stumble on people and not. Though, the idea could be further expanded by making it so that you're encoruaged to go to certain spots in the game to do some tasks otherwise you'll lose a portion of the streetpasses you could've gotten for that play session. That way you have to balance doing things and trying to bump into other users. It would probably end up feeling somewhat arcady, but it might be a fun game-ified way to do online streetpass. Though, the app should probably have a cool down period before you can play it again. And options for specifics and stuff.
