How to rack up play coins without breaking a sweat:
http://articles.businessinsider.com/2011-03-28/tech/30018837_...

As you guys know, play coins can be used in a variety of ways, most recently in Swapnote / LetterBox to unlock stationary. This article suggests ways to rack up coins without breaking a sweat. Pretty interesting. (Of course this defeats the purpose of getting exercise, which you should do daily anyway.) You can only rack up to 300 coins total, 10 coins a day only. Anyways, let me know how you rack up play coins... I just throw my 3DS in my backpack wherever I go and voila...

I just do sit ups with my 3DS in my pocket, or take a break to the mall. + when your in the mall it raises your chance of passing someone streetpass and getting spotpass items.

@Dakrai totally! I know, rite??

Haha.. pretty interesting to hear how people rack up their coins. I just got back from the gym (had my 3DS in my gym shorts) and walked nearly 4,000 steps and only got 5 coins! Bummer! lol

One day they'll all be in our heads and eyes. Instead of an iPhone we'll just have an iEye. lol We will be ancient for having owned a 3DS "back in the day"

Your 3DS must be defective. I take my 3DS to work every day, since I'm a cart pusher I'm constantly walking back and forth. I usually get 30 or so coins daily.

I've always got the max of 300 coins on mine because I take my 3DS out every day, even when I'm just going to work. I only recently started blowing them playing the Mii Plaza games because I was tired of them going to waste. It's nice now that we have Letter Box so we can spend those coins on something worth it.

Well, I don't use it when I run, it doesn't fit in any of my pockets and even if it did I would be afraid of dropping it. I usually get all my coins by putting my 3DS in my purse when I'm shopping or on campus.

Oh I didn't know there was a limit. I was just guessing.

...Really? This long after the 3DS actually comes out we get these magnificent ideas!? Most people realised on day 1 of owning the thing what the best course of action to get play coins was, and that's why...

@Geonjaha: chill. check out the date of the original post. it wasn't 'this long after the 3DS actually comes out' that this thread was created and these comments were left; someone random necro'd the thread from way back when earlier, i deleted their comment, but i didn't realize there had been another user from today commenting on it as well to keep the thread up there on the list. my bad.

so anyway, i think we're all good re: play coins now, aren't we? :3
