Streetpass Quest!

[Meta_Fish]

Quote:

- starts with your Mii having a "dream"
- you wake up in a cage
- learn that you're trapped in a tower
- you have to use Miis you've collected via StreetPass to get out
- collect these Miis by battling in a turn-based system against increasingly powerful enemies
- for 2 Game Coins, you're able to buy a cat in armor to represent you
- cat's attack options are Sword and Magic
- 16-32 stages/levels/battles
- takes roughly two or three battles with each enemy to match their powe
- up to 3 Miis are able to fight at once
- fight ghosts as well
- each attempt to rescue your Mii is concluded with a re-cap of the enemies you have defeated,
- you also see the remaining health of the enemies you fought, but did no defeat

StreetPass Puzzle

- collect pieces of a 3D puzzle
- these are collected by interacting with others that have StreetPass enabled
- the more people you interact with, the more pieces you get

3DS power options

- three different "Off" modes
- 'Sleep' or 'Power Off' when the power button is pressed
- Power off - Turns the 3DS completely off
- Sleep - keeps StreetPass and SpotPass communications active
- Suspend - Activated when Home button is pressed or the system is closed
- Notification LED rapidly flashes red to indicate a low battery state
- this light will also indicate a serious system error

This is sounding like cool stuff. I really wish I lived in a more condensed area, where I'd be more likely to pass others with 3DSes. Hopefully the platform really gets out there, and people really use it. I love the idea of Streetpass, so I'm hoping it works.

This sounds awesome, and like a neat way to encourage people to really carry their DS out with them. It'd work especially well if this came free with the system, because people would feel obliged to use something they "payed for."

I'm not that hot on adventure games, yet the new game's approach is a very good one

Kegan's comment = good idea for a new petition to Nintendo even if it's too late to make it for the launch. Later on, perhaps?.

It's packed in with the system, I'm fairly sure. The Mii Channel or whatever the ******** it's called has a little sword and shield icon on it. ;D

This sounds great.
Miis are such an untapped resource on the Wii. :/  

[Meta_Fish]

Well they didn't update them, and the way they had them "emote" on the Wii was awful. They could go back and try to fix it, but they'd have had to fix it for more games, and as time went on, it just became a more and more impossible problem to solve.

You can transfer Miis from your Wii to your 3DS, but not vice-versa. 3DS Miis have more options, too.

I already carry my current DS everywhere, so I like this idea.
