So far no luck, but then again I'm not taking it with me all the time. Thought I would get hits in the mall but zero so far.

[Rex Dart]

No luck whatsoever.

[Harry_Dodgson]

Same here. I need to find a location where lots of rich techie types spend time together.

Nothing so far at the mall. Going to carry with me around campus and see what I can find tomorrow.

Remember when you thought you could find random people to Pictochat with when the first DS came out? Good times.

[Taskmaster99]

Yeah......my fiance. She was sitting on the couch and i was in the recliner.....lol. Worked perfectly!!!

[Animan]

Went to the mall yesterday and I did get one person. Other than that, nothing.

I got one contact at Best Buy, but I haven't really been anywhere else to collect hits. I've been keeping it on me though and will continue to do so. I figure the 3DS isn't really that saturated in this area just yet.

LOL! Man I didn't think it was possible to have a nostalgic moment from 2004 but that just did it. With the original DS there really wasn't any reason to carry it on you like a cell phone.

Zero hits so far, but then, I live in a tiny town of only 12-15k, and the only "hang out" place we got is walmat. Couple that with the 3DS being new and WAY to expensive for the average working stiff, and yeah, I didn't really expect to get any hits. Hell, I still only know 3 IRL people with any type of DS

I StreetPass my cousin everyday because he lives with me.
In the wild I would say so far I have collected about 6 or 7 randoms' Miis. 4 of those people had Street Fighter 4 so I passively battled them (and won!)
The coolest is the one guy that I interact with often. We've SF battled about 5 times now and we pick each other up a couple of times a week, trading puzzle pieces and stuff.

Streepass for me is really cementing the system as awesome. Mind you I live in Toronto, so my country's most populated city, bring my 3DS everywhere I go just in case, and also make a point of hitting up busy places occassionally.

Also it stands to reason that EB games employees, etc, though douches generally, probably bring their 3DS's along wiht them and would be likely early adopters. I advise to at least walk by an EB or other game store semi-regularly to see what you can get.

2 so far, happened when I was at the Marq*E last weekend to catch Source Code (good flick).

[Rex Dart]

Hey SpiceWare, I didn't know you were in Houston. Is that Todai still there?

[SpiceWare]

Yep, been here since 87.

Todai is still there, though I've not eaten there. I love sushi, but was disappointed at 2 different sushi buffets in the past so I never tried them. Likewise I love chinese food, but have never cared for the food at a chinese buffet.
