Topic: Where Can I Get Streetpass?

So I want to do streetpass to see what miis and junk I get. Does anyone know the best places to get them? I have gone to a lot of places, but haven't got anything. I have also been riding in cars, but no luck there either. Everywhere online says good information, but it was all in 2019, and the previous years. Is there a crucial point I am missing? Or should I just give up hope?

I don't think you can due to the online services being shutdown now.

Basically you need to find someone else carrying a 3ds with streetpass active and communications on. Unless you get yourself a second system, I suppose the second best option would be going to some place where other people would be likely to carry a 3DS… Like, maybe a convention or big game store?

@Tasuki streetpass uses local communication, it’s not affected by the online servers closing down.

@Eel Ah ok I wasn't 100% sure about that good to now.

But giving that not to many people carry a 3DS on them anymore this might be a tall task. Alot of people have upgraded to the Switch. Maybe try organizing a street pass event in your area.

I do have a second system, but I want new miis not the same ones over and over again. Though thanks for the help everyone. It seems to be a dark and cloudy voyage for streetpass in 2024.

@PersianZSR I have been carrying my 3DS with me for ever. But even when I went to Japan for a month in November, I only got 3 hits, an Australian, a Swede and a Mexican. Sounds like a set up for a really bad joke.
Probably best places to go would be retro gaming shows/conferences.
I still want to finish off my Puzzle Swaps

I wish they would have added Streetpass to the Switch maybe with the next console if it's a hybrid they will.

I remember taking my 3DS to places like the beach, Universal Studios, The Portland Retro Game Convention and even when I went to NYC a few years ago and loved seeing where all I got people from. It was such a unique feature.

@DreamlandGem I know a local comic and game shop in my area does it once a month during their Pokemon games. Makes me wish I still had a 3DS.
