Nintendo Hosting StreetPass Weekend September 30-October 1st September 24, 2016

Got a 3DS system but running short on new StreetPass data?  We’ve got you covered. Nintendo has announced that they’re going to be hosting a special StreetPass Weekend at Nintendo Zone locations all over the US from September 30th to October 1st.

Traditionally, Nintendo handheld owners who visit these hotspots will get the StreetPass Mii data from the six previous users of that hotspot. However, during a StreetPass Weekend, that concept is turned on its head because during that time Nintendo will send users StreetPass data from six random players from anywhere in the world. If you want a diverse set of StreetPass Miis to fill up your plaza you should totally look into participating.

Nintendo Zone locations are free WiFi access points avalible to Nintendo 2DS and 3DS owners. They can usually be found in businesses like Barnes and Noble, Best Buy, McDonald’s, Burger King, and of course Nintendo NYC.  To find a participating location check here.

Pokemon Sun and Moon Exclusive Pokémon and Trainer Customization Trailer September 20, 2016

Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon are still a few months away from release but Nintendo has been consistently releasing all-new footage from the game to hold players over until then.
