Street Walker

I finally met someone through Street Pass on the 3DS. By my estimation, I’ve been in range of nearly 7,000 people, without any hits. Today, while having a picnic in the park, I came across another person playing Nintendogs in Street Pass Pedometer mode, which enable me to accept a free gift. I was also able to use the new Mii to play a round in each of the Street Pass games. Whoever this other person is, they’ve encountered 24 different Miis in Street Pass.

What really surprised me, though, was the range of the 3DS in Street Pass mode. If I’m right, I had to be at least 50 feet away from another human being. I was worried before that I wouldn’t be able use Street Pass unless the 3DSs were basically touching each other.

I was getting pretty desperate too. I even went to Blockbuster to see if I could bum a Mii of their 3DS display, but they had taken it down, or it was shut off.
