I don’t recommend reading this post if you do not care about Nintendo, foursquare check ins, and so forth. Last night I downloaded the system update for the Nintendo 3DS to unlock the StreetPass Relay Points. And then today I went around to several places to try and use said StreetPass Relay Points. This is a recap of where I went.
Started off at a Starbucks. I actually opened the Nintendo Zone application but according to the Nintendo website the StreetPass Relay will only work while in sleep. Then I went to a Best Buy. Across the street was another Starbucks. I did wander into a Game Stop but no green lights there.
I’d like to point out that I would be much more likely to go into a Game Stop if the people there were more Nintendo-friendly. Why are they not Nintendo Zones?
Then I went to a Barnes & Noble but they were actually closed because of a power outage that hit the Montclair Plaza (mall). (No mention of it from @MontclairPlaza … that’s a social media fail right there).
Then I went to another Barnes & Noble and another Best Buy and another Starbucks while passing by a AT&T store.
I guess that’s it. Only seven/eight possible places? Whatever. Oh … I forgot to stop at every McDonalds I passed by too. Ooops. Probably a good thing; I have more Monopoly game pieces then I’d like to admit. (More than ten)
I did get two people at my gates today … but I don’t know if I actually passed them or if that was a StreetPass Relay.
