Because of the StreetPass NYC group, my StreetPass hits have increased from each one of their meetups.
We had another one yesterday, and it was pretty cool. We also went to the Nintendo World Store where tons of people were all over the 3DS units in place (and their own) checking their StreetPass Mii Plazas, and playing Find Mii.
I really think Nintendo should really chill on alienating themselves from these guys.
I understand how badly they're trying to preserve the industry but making divides between each other won't work.
Considering the fact that they got their behinds kicked by Mojang in this long Developers' Showdown hosted by the Escapist (due to fan votes), these "garage devs" are starting to show some sort of uprising.
Then again, these same devs can get a little bit cocky. Some guy hailed Angry Birds as a new (Super) Mario Bros., to which I roared with laughter.

It was a glorious sight.
Also, for anyone interested in a good read, here's a write-up I did of the first meetup: http://inintendo.net/Articles/StreetPassNYC.php

Re: Rumour: Could This Be the Next Nintendo Console?
Wow... Split screen console gaming is now less annoying.
Of course.... Waiting until that meeting, and E3 of course.
Re: Cricket Challenge ESRB Rating Bowls WiiWare a Googly
I'm familiar with the terms, thanks very much. >.>
Re: New Nintendo Console at E3?
Damn it Corbie! >.<
Other than that...
I'm not sure how I should react to this.
More importantly, what are they thinking up at Nintendo HQ? Is there even a little gimmick this time? Backwards compatibility?
Of course, of course, all roads lead to LA this June.
Do your stuff Corb-man, see if you can make another winning quote for us to
exploituse!Re: Star Fox 64 3D Entering Japanese Airspace on 14th July
Somehow, I think the future of the franchise hinges on this. Just a feeling.
So if you want a brand new Star Fox adventure, buy this game!

Not into strategy games, but this is really outstanding! I never gave the game a chance and it totally blew my expectations out of the water!
Great stuff!
Re: Metacritic Career Ratings Pit Aonuma Versus Miyamoto
Weird, I expected Miyamoto to destroy the scale.
At least he has the highest rated game of all time.

Re: Nintendo Download: 25th March 2011 (Europe)

Re: Best Buy in New York to Host the Big 3DS Launch Event
Well, I'm sticking to my GameStop here in the Bronx, of course.
Re: World's Finest to Compete This Weekend at the Kong Off
It's hard calling the winner.
Maybe Wiebe will make a huge comeback, or Billy will rise again OR Chien will push the record even further out of reach.
It's anyone's game!
It's all for the taking!
It's on like Donkey Kongâ„¢!

Re: Prepare for a Cartoon Network Punch Time Explosion on 3DS
I'm a big supporter of the game (I visit the fan page on FB and chip in my two cents) and I'm definitely hopeful.
