National Streetpass Weekend Returns To Put Some Spring Into Your Step!

Nintendo is bringing back National StreetPass Weekend from March 25 to March 27!

During National StreetPass weekends, you can visit one of many locations with a Nintendo Zone to get StreetPass tags. The most common locations are Best Buy, McDonalds, and even Home Depot!  This breaks the “traditional” rules of how StreetPass works, allowing you to get StreetPass tags of many people around the country who have also visited the same Zones that you have.

On previous StreetPass Weekends, there were usually other wireless-related events coinciding, but there’s nothing else special to note this time around, except for the fact that Hyrule Warriors Legends for the 3DS arrives on Friday.

If you can manage to go far enough into the game to activate StreetPass, you will then be able to go to the Nintendo Zones to take advantage of the features.  Nintendo.com describes the feature: “StreetPass Link needs your help! If you enable the StreetPass options in Settings, StreetPass Links from other players may appear on the world map. Assist them by winning battles on their maps to get rewards!”

This gives me a good excuse to have a post WonderCon dinner at McDonald’s!  Will I be seeing you all there?
