Pokepal, what do you mean random houses? You mean for HHA? Because I don't think that is true (I only have houses from StreetPass, and I have not heard anyone say they have gotten any from SpotPass).

Actually This just happened to me. We have three 3DS systems and I got a Spot Pass alert on New Leaf. I checked my Street Pass and it's just the other two systems. I check my Street Pass in New Leaf and there's some dude I've never seen before.
Also checking the Spot Pass section of the Manual, it explains that items and model homes and other data will be sent through it.

I've had a few animal crossing spotpasses - Reggie, Krys, and Rich. I think Krys and Rich are also nintendo staff?

I forgot about Reggie.

These new Street Pass games are no joke (except for Flower Town). I've spent every last Play Coin and have spent more time outside trying to grab Street Passes just I could play (mostly Mii Force) again. Anyone else enjoying them as much as I am?

nickmitch · « **Reply #280 on:** July 20, 2013, 02:05:24 PM »

So, as it stands now, you have to play Find Mii and Puzzle Swap with Miis that visit your town before you can let in more Miis. Is that still true with the new games? That's one of the things holding me back from a purchase.

This is still the case, you can get Plaza Tickets that you can trade in for hats, which essentially kills Find Mii. If that is the only thing holding you back I suggest you try one or two out, they are worth it.

The hats in Find Mii/FM2 are different than the hats you get via Plaza Tickets.

You don't have to play any of the games to let more Miis in, you get a message saying there are new Miis at the gate, but if you greet them, you lose the ability to "play" with the previous Miis.

Note: There's still a limit of ten StreetPasses before you have to greet them to allow more to come to your gate.

Really? I've gotten some hats that were clearly old that I never unlocked from Find Mii via Plaza Tickets.

UncleBob · « **Reply #284 on:** July 20, 2013, 02:30:29 PM »

Which hats?

TheFleece · « **Reply #285 on:** July 20, 2013, 02:32:45 PM »

Toad Hat and Fire Flower- I just got those, I assumed they were old hats I hadn't gotten yet.

Are you sure it was the Toad Hat? There's a 1-Up Mushroom Hat that's just got the colors swapped. Both it and the Fire Flower are some of the new Plaza hats.

So basically you're telling me I have to keep playing Find Mii.....

UncleBob · « **Reply #288 on:** July 20, 2013, 02:44:17 PM »

As far as I understand it... yup.

Best thing to do, buy two more 3DS systems, set their Miis to the same shirt color. You'll end up with a level 15 attack every eight hours, clears through Find Mii pretty quick.

TheFleece · « **Reply #289 on:** July 20, 2013, 02:49:33 PM »

We have three systems, but I don't think I can convince my roommates to switch their colors to support my Street Pass ocd.

UncleBob · « **Reply #290 on:** July 20, 2013, 02:53:25 PM »

Do they have the same OCD? If everyone (including you) switches to the same color (I suggest red, so if there's a shield of a particular color, you can use Team Magic on the fire attack), then each of them will get the two Level 7 Miis/Level 15 attack power every 8 hours.

Not even close to my level, man. Guess I'll just keep going to Street Pass events and whatnot.

UncleBob · « **Reply #292 on:** July 20, 2013, 03:50:38 PM »

...or buy two more systems.

It's happened to me twice. It's bullshit. I don't care that much for loosing Miis for Find Mii, but it's terrible loosing them for Puzzle Swap. I just started a few weeks ago taking my 3DS out with me (which means I have a lot to collect with not many streetpass tags for everytime I take it with me), and I've learned my lesson, but it's still bullshit.

TJ Spyke · « **Reply #294 on:** July 21, 2013, 10:55:49 AM »

Bullshit? Just go to Puzzle Swap and use them, it's not that damn hard. It only takes you an extra 20 seconds max.

The new update brings the Street Pass meet count over 99!

Wait what? You mean the 10/10 limit goes to 99 or something else?

TheFleece · « **Reply #296 on:** July 22, 2013, 12:01:06 PM »

Something else. I'm talking about when you Street Pass someone more than once and they say how many times you've met them. Before it was capped at 99, but it's been extended now.

TJ Spyke · « **Reply #297 on:** July 22, 2013, 09:43:32 PM »

Really though, how many people will get even close to 99 encounters with 1 person? I guess its fine they extended it, though few people will benefit from it.

UncleBob · « **Reply #298 on:** July 22, 2013, 10:31:53 PM »

I have two friends that I've broken 99 with and a third system that's close.

I'd say a *lot* of people will benefit from the lifting of the 99 meeting cap - considering how many people I've met that are part of families or couples where multiple people have a 3DS in the same household.

Now, what the benefit of having passed someone more than 7 times is... well, meh.

TJ Spyke · « **Reply #299 on:** July 22, 2013, 10:41:43 PM »

A "lot"? LOL, maybe a few hundred people. Max/
