National StreetPass Weekend 10/30
Nintendo is hosting a National StreetPass Weekend from October 30 through November 1. Visit participating Nintendo Zone hotspots (29,000 across North America) to get up to six StreetPass tags. Most McDonald’s, Best Buy, and AT&T WiFi hot spots will allow the 3DS to connect and utilize StreetPass. If you’re like me and still have a lot of puzzle pieces missing, this weekend might be a good chance to snag some.
Skip the tricks this Halloween and head straight to the treats with National StreetPass Weekend!
Stop by any of the more than 29,000 Nintendo Zone hotspots across North America with your Nintendo 3DS system from Oct. 30 through Nov. 1—you could get up to six StreetPass tags from across North America.
Collect more Mii characters to help you battle ghouls and ghosts in Monster Manor and Battleground Z , or pick up enemy tokens for StreetSmash in Super Smash Bros.™ for Nintendo 3DS.
If you’re playing Animal Crossing™: Happy Home Designer, you might even run into Filly, a special character who is currently only available from Nintendo Zone.
And remember to pick out a spooky hat for your Mii, then take your Nintendo 3DS with you while you’re out over the Halloween weekend—you never know who you might StreetPass!
