Swap Note

IrishNinja said:
Re-note/re-swap (retweet) is easily the biggest omission for me so far; cool ones get discussed here and i'm out of the loop! plus, yours would get shared constantly.

A retweet/forward function, more ink per note, and the capability to reply back to a note you started would be more than enough to make me happy.

(Can't wait to get my 3DS back and resume submerging you people with notes)

I want to do the same thing thing but then what would you do? Put out an open call for active swapnote users only? I've got 95 friends but very few notes. If swapnote had communities like MK 7 that would be amazing. I'm sure the gaf community would produce a lot of laughs.

Great idea. It would be a useful way to share with a larger group and would give further proof of Nintendo's online improvements. It sounds like a swapnote update could be on the way in some form or other...

I guess that's the only way. Wouldn't be surprised if some people simply "lurked" swapnote. They enjoy receiving notes but are not confident enough to reply or sent their own.

If communities allowed the admin to control the member list then it could work. For something like this you wouldn't want random people joining a community. That would be a recipe for disaster.

Yeah Swapnote use is down, I do still enjoy getting my daily dose of art from you.

As for communities, would be interesting to see how they implement it. Based on Iwata's comment it seems like they plan to expand the functionality. I wonder if we will get swapnote v2.0 or whether there will be games like AC that allow us use swap notes or alternatively a little bit of both. The core apps gets updated and they integrate it with future games.

I made a list a while ago of updates I would like to see done to Swap Note. So now seems like the perfect time to post it :)

Basically you want FlipNote 3DS. Nothing wrong about this, but I think it will not free.

For the new swapnoters: my FC is 4124-4976-7316, if you added me send a PM, so I can add you.

And I received yet another note from Roto13 about killing a mouse (gross!), when I noted a thing... Roto is a woman or what?!?

You can also get three colours by using the 3DS' built in game-notes feature, exporting as an image and then importing that to your Swapnote.

I sometimes forget about that feature. I just used to draw doodles before Swapnote.

So yesterday I got just 7 messages. Today I'm suddenly bombarded with a massive backlog. What the hell.

Wait, if the DSi version was free why wouldn't the 3DS version be?
Click to expand...

I think flipnote 3d will be free as well unless Nintendo is suddenly stingy and eager to boost profits.

"Lurking" in swapnote should be a criminal offense! If that is indeed the case.

I've never used FlipNote, but I also don't expect everything from that list to actually happen.

If they just took a handful and implemented them it would make SwapNote that much better, especially reswapping notes, more ink.

And I had previously added SwapNote Communites to that list, but after more thought, it would become a disaster zone or randoms spamming penises which is why I had come up with Subscriptions (which I apparently forgot to copy over to the list here... along with replying to replies of your own note) where people can subscribe and receive everything you throw out to the "All" list, but they won't be able to reply (directly back to your 3DS*) unless you've exchanged your friend codes. This way an unlimited amount of people can receive your messages (by choice) but you won't get spammed back by random unknowns.

It would also be really cool if Nintendo had a "submit to Nintendo" option where the best ones they receive get put up on Nintendo Video or randomly sent to every SwapNote connected 3DS out there.


*it would be nice to have some separate inbox for subscription replies. But it would probably just end up that subscribers can't reply, only friends can.

Some notes seems to take longer. I've sent messages to someone and never received a reply, or sent a group message and have someone reply 2 days later even when I have a good feel that they check their notes daily given their activity on sending notes to me daily.

Somewhat strange.

My # is Deku 0044-2807-6796

Let me know if you add me.
 
I just downloaded Art Academy from club nintendo, so now I'll be able to use more drawing tools and I think I can import my junk into swapnote as photos. Soon I'll be sending out pics of (hopefully) some pretty cool stuff.

Can't wait. Your drawing are one of the highlights of SwapNote.

Always great work.
 
Cool. My friend code: 1375-7397-4080

I'm a decent artist, though I try to be funny but I never am. Maybe I'll succeed sometime.
I also now know what you guys mean by ink. Whatta terrible thing to limit.

edit: is there any way to delete the just the first page of a note? it's blank and all I want to keep is the second page but don't want to lose everything.

Thank you for adding your code to the thread; I have added you to the master Friend Code list :) [post #1698]

Well humour is subjective so as long as you have fun it is a bonus if anyone else is amused :).

Not that I am aware of. I believe you have to delete the whole note and start again :/. Hopefully someone will be able to correct me on this matter though. Hope you enjoy Swap Note :).

Added you three!

Also, read the Iwata Asks interview. Man, I love these things. I've said repeatedly that if Nintendo were ever to compile all of these into some sort of book, I would pretty much pay any price. In Dollars, Club Nintendo Coins, or otherwise.
Click to expand...

Same here there is so much insight in these interviews, I want the audio and video too, if it exists!!
 
pro-tip, running swap note outside internet/wifi range makes it run twice/thrice as fast.

Whatever message was pushed to your system before you left wifi range is already downloaded and it just loads up. zero loading screens /reading SD card screens.

I'm going to double check if there's an option to turning off auto-checking mailbox later. That could speed up performance, but I'm unsure if that will disable automatic mail downloads entirely.

Anyqays, that is where things stand right now.

Likewise to both. Those interviews are really great. I haven't been at all active on Swap Note, apology, but I'm starting.

gaheris can't find your friend code to add you back.

Alright, I've added the people who say have added me and I am going to add everybody on this page and those who make a new post with a FC. :)
Thanks for the compiled list woo and indeed hoo!
 
Fuck.

I reached the 3000 limit, and it deleted my Nikki letters, the first ones.
I want them again, damn it.

So if you are at 3000 the app will automatically delete old ones in order to download new ones, BUT IF you want to reply you can't because you are at 3000 and you have to manually delete letters?

Update plz.
And give me my Nikki letters back.
 
I got an update from Nintendo through Swapnote, and received a note I can't open until a certain date. Does anyone know what that's about?

1) What do you mean by "update from Nintendo"?

2) I got a time locked message as well -- and it seems as though it -also- brought Nikki to my Plaza via invite. I assume we'll find out on St. Valentine's Day -- especially give the special info videos currently on the eShop!
 
To clarify, here's my post from the Downloads thread...

I was playing Super Mario 3D Land today and noticed I had a Toad House with a familiar Mii... which was odd, as I didn't have a new Streetpass nor had I gone online recently. In any event, I jumped into the Streetpass Mii Plaza and find a new Mii -- Nikki, from Swapnote.

Nikki appeared "six hours ago" by invitation, which was just about when I received a time-locked Swapnote message from an unknown sender.

I assume Nikki arrived with the message -- if you have 'Special Messages' enabled in Swapnote and 'Invite Mii' in the Plaza, I assume you'll be making a new friend too. Does anyone else have Nikki visiting?
 
Who all got Nikki here? I have a US 3DS and I did receive Nikki's time-locked Swapnote, but she didn't appear in my StreetPass Mii Plaza. I have both Invite Mii and SpotPass activated in StreetPass Mii Plaza, and Special Notes is also turned on in Swapnote. Why did I not get her? :(

Er, how do you "know" you got her note? I ask this as I don't "know" it at the moment, it just seems the most logical assumption based on her Mii appearing right after I got a mysterious time-locked note. Does your note mention a sender?

Okay, I guess I don't really know that it's hers for sure... But I got it around the same time the news broke of it. Besides, why wouldn't I have gotten it by now, anyway?

Also, to anyone who did get her, could you possibly post her QR Code? I have the Japanese Nikki Mii, but I'd prefer to have this English one instead.
 
Well I've been on holiday so I haven't been checking SwapNote. Guess I'll see if I can configure my grandparents wifi on my 3DS.
 
this is the worst application i've ever seen on anything. It's spam that takes a long time to open. Just shit.
 
I got 2 time locked messages, 1 yesterday and another today.

But I do have a b-day coming up soon so I just assumed that's what it was for.

Also Nikki did not show up in my Plaza, but I do remember adding the Japanese version of her Mii when it was first released, even though I couldn't find her just now in my plaza.

I set my 3DS's calender date ahead because I hate waiting.

I set the date to Feb. 14th since I figured this Nikki swapnote might be Valentine's Day related and I was right.

You get a free Valentine's Day themed stationary for your swapnotes.

Don't view if you want to be surprised.

I am also in the same predicament where I had Japanese Nikki, but did not receive English Nikki with the time-locked note. Next time, then. :/
 
Well I guess someone could just post the QR code.

Connected my 3DS online so busy reading through a bunch of missed notes.
 
I have two time locked notes too. I had naturally assumed that they were Valentine's Day notes from admirers in my friend list. So I find this speculation that it is from Nikki disconcerting. I think I shall continue to believe my other theory until proven otherwise!

Hi, this is my first post here in NeoGaf, i'm excited. So yeah, since i don't have many friends with 3DS and i love SwapNote, i thought it was a good idea to drop my FC here :), if someone adds me please send me a PM, thanks :D

FC: 2277-7392-0122

(and sorry if my english isn't perfect :P)
 
Anyone had any trouble with the attach photo not letting you pick from photos you may want?

The last photo I can attach is artwalknoon's Zelda drawing, that I saved from within Swapnote. I have since made several QR shots and saved a photo from Freakyforms, and tried some other things, but nothing else shows up in the Swapnote photo picker.

I really wanted to send out my latest Freakyform :(
