30 StreetPasses in two days (14 yesterday and 16 today) isn't too bad.
Nearly got all the pink pieces besides the Kid Icarus ones... Haven't found anyone with any pink ones for that yet.

To get one of the pink puzzle pieces you have to street pass someone who happens to have one. That's the only way.

IMO they should skip the StreetPass pieces as a whole and just exchange them for SpotPass pieces so that everyone actually has a chance of finishing the puzzles.

@19Robb92 - But then everyone would just get all the pieces without any sense of "can I get them?", more just "when will I get them?" - where's the fun in that?

I appreciate that if you are still waiting for your first ever "hit", then it's probably very frustrating, but I'm finding now that I can easily get 3 or 4 hits just by visiting the ciry centre at the weekend for an hour or so. I even got on from inside my car when dropping the mother-in-law off at the train station yesterday morning and that person had a ton of pink pieces to choose from.

I have noticed though that you seem to get less hits overall the more titles you have StreetPass enabled for. Makes sense, really - your 3DS has to quickly negotiate with the other system and the more titles you have enabled, the more cross matching it has to do. I carry 2 systems round with me, one which only has Mii Plaza enabled and my main system which had quite a few more and I'd often get a few hits on the spare system but only 1 matching one on the other.

Not really. There's still normal pieces that are either randomized by using play coins or acquired by StreetPass. It'll take a very long time even if you may get some of the pieces by SpotPass. Especially seeing how many pieces each puzzle consists of now.

The StreetPass-only pieces are more frustrating than fun.

NA, Europe and Australia will most likely get the Oni training ( Brain Age 3DS) puzzle when the game is closer to launch in the specific region. As Japan is getting it in like a week or two.

Demo units and gamestop workers are a reliable source of pieces actually, because of all the 3DS owners that walk in. And if you go to a mall you can get up to 5 or more streetpasses.

My SD Card with the game on it is just as physical as your cartridge with the game on it.
I love Nintendo, that's why I criticize them so harshly.

I wish I could update the 3DS at my GS so I can actually get the pink pieces

i`m going to westfield shopping mall tomorrow afternoon.
nintendo are showing off mario and sonic olympics there. i don`t really care for the game so much, i`m just hoping to get a few street pass hits, and some pink puzzle pieces.

The pink pieces would be a lot better if there were some system for getting them through SpotPass.

Say, pay 10 Play Coins, and you have a chance of getting a new pink piece each week. Chances reduced if you get a lot of StreetPass Hits, increased if you don't get many, and decreased but more slowly when Wireless/the system is off, to prevent increased chance abuse. The pieces are sent every Thursday to coincide with the eShop so they can send everything out in one batch. It's cheap and effective and I wouldn't mind spending the Play Coins on it since I hardly get new random pieces from them.

@nibelilt i totally agree that there needs to be a fairer way to get the pink puzzle pieces.
something i do, my local HMV has a demo 3DS, and i always make sure that i street pass it. i also let it have pieces from my 3DS too, it`s a good way to share them around, and i notice that others have done the same, because i`ve had pieces back from it too.
tbh, passing the demo 3DS has helped on the quest too, i`ve levelled the mii up to a 7 which is as high as it will go, and it powers through some of the rooms quite well, especially the first few roomss.

Lucky that demo station updated, my demo stations are old and don't update, they look like they're from pre June 2011 they don't even have the eShop shown

You can get pink pieces from Spotpass. Twice the've given out gold miis over spotpass that have ALL the pink pieces. And usually when they do that they become a lot more common.
