3DS System Update Live (Streetpass DLC games, digital game save backups)

Doesn't work with Animal Crossing for whatever reason.

basjdaksj fuck

I get that they want to protect cheating with that thing the game does by checking a save serial or whatever but man, it's much more important to prevent data corruption

it pains my brain how they don't realize this. Losing your save in Animal Crossing is pretty much the worst game to lose a save, ever.


And then some people dont understand why sometimes flashcards are welcomed

I feel a little bit better now.

A little bit.

Plus my friends are going to let me sit in on a few G-Rank hunts next time we hunt together, so I can make just one weapon that will let me grind back up the ranks at lightning speed.

I don't get it really. I mean you can't trade things on MH so there is nothing to exploit right? unlike Pokemon where loading a earlier save after a trade means cloned pokemon.

I still need to backup the whole SD card =/

Why is Nintendo pushing out Xenoblade and Skyward Sword puzzles now? I thought puzzles were there as free promotion for upcoming games?

Kinda advertising for X and Wind Waker HD/Link Between Worlds. Or still advertising for those games although they're kind of old.

They still do that, but I'm guessing that these new puzzles are to encourage people to take their 3DSs out Streetpassing to take advantage of the new features.

Also, XENOBLADE IN 3D.

Or...OR! Xenoblade 3D/Skyward Sword 3D!

I actually wouldn't want that to happen.
 
Cross posting from the other threads:

  • Two kinds of games in a "bigger" Mii Plaza - ones you've already, plus ones to purchase!
  • We've now got a Shop, and Exchange Booth, a Check for Updates button and a new Play icon, along with a new second screen menu.
  • New games - Streetpass Squad, Streetpass Garden, Streetpass Battle, Streetpass Mansion.
  • New game selection section.
  • Games are bought with real money, as in eShop purchases.
  • Streetpass Squad is like Streetpass Quest. Takes place in space. Battle the Gold Bone Gang. Costs £4.49.
  • Streetpass Garden. You move in to a house in Leafington and try to become a Master Gardener, under the tutelage of Mr Mendel. Grow flowers and decorate your garden. Costs £4.49.
  • Streetpass Battle. Game of strategy and luck. Rule a remote country in a wartorn land. Your butler, Wentworth, helps you build an army via Streetpass to battle other generals. Ultimate goal to conquer the world! Costs £4.49.
  • Streetpass Mansion. Spooky paranormal investigation. You're a detective trying to solve the mystery of a haunted house, helped by your assistant Ella Mentree. You work to uncover truth with the help of people you meet inside. Battle enemies to reach the top floor. Costs £4.49.
  • Combo pack is only available for your first purchase and costs £13.49 (saving of £4.47). Deal only available if you buy all four at first. If you buy one on its own, the rest cost full price.
  • Exchange booth is locked. Clicking on it doesn't do anything yet. You'll need to earn tickets (see below) to use it.
  • No Xenoblade puzzle for me, but I did get a Skyward Sword one.
  • Playing games wins you hats and plaza tickets for achieving certain goals. Exchange these for new Mii accessories. Not available in the StreetPass Quest/Quest II or Puzzle Swap.
  • Get a Pixel Mario hat to commemorate :)

Damn, DLC streetpass quests, Nintendo's got me hooked in and I haven't even finished the other ones yet lol.

Pretty surprising update, I always welcome new ones!

I almost thought it was Miiverse when I first read about on GAF, no such luck...yet.

Gives all the fucks
Holy crap, 8-bit Mario hat. I want this update even more, especially to see the outfits.

Anyone wanna confirm if you can hire Miis already in your plaza similar to Find Mii 2?

how does battling enemies solve a mystery

Holy crap! Today's real megaton is that more than two people can have the same first name.
The new puzzle seems to only appear if you've done all the old ones.

Ignore! Seems everyone gets the new puzzle.

So all of these hats or whatever have to be downloaded onto every 3DS right? Everyone who has this update has them so we can see those hats when we street pass. Just like in TF2?

Update still not up in the US correct?

Also, fuck Nintendo and Streetpass Mii Plaza! I'm trying to save my Play Coins for SMTIV! At least remove the 300 total coins limit and also the 10 coins per day limit. This is so frustrating especially seeing the empty panels that I have, and also reaching 1000+ steps a day and I can't gain any more coins after, this needs an update asap!
