I guess it does print money...

Nintendo's recently released StreetPass games have made about $4 million dollars in their first month, according to Satoru Iwata in a recent interview with with Tokyo Keizai Online.

This is shortly after news that the games were selling very well. The paid additions to the StreetPass Plaza include four new games, and can be purchased individually for $5 each or as a bundle for $15. Hopefully this success will lead to more StreetPass games, as well as similar piecemeal experiences from Nintendo.

I'm still trying to get all the hats in Find Mii I and II. I'm on the last room of my second playthrough of the Secret Quest in Find Mii II. I think I have to three more playthroughs. That said, not sure I'll be looking at the new StreetPass games any time soon (or ever).

So I'm fairly sure that Four Million Dollars put these games into every one sold now is pure profit.  Even considering storage and maintenance for their whole lifetime.

Adrock I'm even worse than you. I still haven't unlocked Find Me II.

It might be easier now since you can hire old allies and you can pick your strongest allies or pick the correct shirts to get through certain rooms. Not sure when Nintendo added that to Find Mii I, but that's pretty much the only way I've been able to get through Find Mii II. Relying on Streetpasses while living in the suburbs is an exercise in frustration and loneliness. Also, this will undoubtedly become easier once I get my XL and give my brother my regular 3DS. A StreetPass every time I do laundry at my mom's house. Success!

Adrock, it's not in Find Mii I. It's only available in Find Mii II.
