Very quick question, physical and digital 3DS games use their own saves, on cart and on SD respectively, yeah? Or is it possible to switch over to a digital version of a physical copy of the game and still use the same save?

It's Animal Crossing I'm thinking about; would like to have it digital so I can just play it whenever without having to swap the cart out but holy lol am I not doing that if I can't use my old save.

I live in a country with about 4 million people in it, and which has no economy. If I can get Streetpasses, then so can you. I believe in you!

There's a tool you can download that transfers your physical cart save to your SD card. You need to have a downloaded version of the game already installed for this to work.

I live in a state where there are ~11 people per square mile density-wise so not really. I've had 2 legit street passes ever and that was when I was doing a system transfer to the XL.

I took my 3DS to Gamestop last week and didn't get a street pass. Like, their in store demo unit wasn't even set up for it.

I only ever get em in airports, and still not as many as you would expect. Maybe 1 or 2 per leg.

Imo it's much easier to buy a $20 router off Amazon that does dd-wrt for the streepasses than any of the other solutions.

Also, the Save Data Transfer tool doesn't copy your data. It moves it, your card will be wiped.

Because checking a box in osx settings and typing "./relay.sh full" is extremely hard

One time I was traveling and went through three airports and didn't get a single street pass. :stare: These were all major international airports too.

Do you clear out your streetpasses to get more than 10/day?

You'll find me at conventions clearing out streetpasses and holding R to race through puzzle pieces. Don't cry for me, I'm already dead.

Maybe get the new Mii Plaza games to use them tags elsewhere?

Eh, I liked getting all the puzzles because everyone gets the puzzle collection and now I'm basically a puzzle piece fairy spreading puzzle pieces everywhere and I can brag a lot about how I have all the puzzle pieces. Plus it was simple to hold R and mash my way through it. I'm not super interested in making my daily streetpasses take even longer to get through. Find Mii was torture enough.

You can take in 10 more Plaza Miis if you just invite the first 10 past the gate.

It'll prompt you to play mini games with the first 10 immediately the next time you open the app, but then you can play 20 in one sitting.

When I first got these things I was happy there was more to do with the Miis since I had beaten Find Mii 2 and all that, but jesus this became a chore with my terrible OCD. At this point I only care for the puzzles, there's some Plaza tickets I'm missing but unless it's for the land conquering game I don't give a poo poo. I've basically done everything for the rest of them and what I'm missing is way too poopsocky for me to actually get done.

Honestly, I thought all of them were really good. I'd start with the first DS one and work your way through.

Play this one last. I remember it being the most difficult, IIRC. Plus it's better than Portrait of Ruin, and you wanna go out on a high note.
