Topic: Streetpass/pedometer and DS

so I was wondering....
If I close my 3ds top screen to put it in sleep mode when Im playing a regular DS game, will the streetpass work ?
will the pedometer work ?

Because i just got this RPG, Diasgaea DS, and I know so well that some fights will not end at the end of my bus ride, and I will have to close the screen for a walk.
I'd hate to miss streetpass opportunities, or not use my pedometer. (play coins!) while walking to work. that's where i got most of my hits, and that's where i get most of my coins.

Well, i just tried it myself.

The pedometer still works while playing DS games, and you still get coins.

About streetpass.... I am afraid i can't answer that.
All i can say is that the wireless light is still turned on when you play DS games, but when you turn it off you can't turn it on again.

streetpass doesn't work while playing ds games. I can confirm that.

I can confirm that yes, StreetPass and the pedometer both work if it's closed on a DS game. walk without fear :3
