I've been Street Pass-ing it up this week with my Nintendo 3DS. You'll see in the above video that I've just hit 70 Miis in my Mii Plaza. Hell yes. While I haven't fared as well in Street Pass Quest, I've done quite well in Street Pass Puzzle. You'll see that I've unlocked several new panels and have actually completed a couple of them. 

You complete these panels by running into people on the street that have the pieces you need. You both trade pieces through Street Pass, and later you pick which of their available pieces you'd like from them.

In the above video you'll see what happens when you complete a panel by meeting enough people. It's pretty cool, though it looks way better in 3D. Stick around for the end of the video to see me unlock a couple of new panels.

Aren't those the 3D images they showed at E3? Cool!

Also Mario/Kirby/Starfox hats for your Mii's. Doubly cool.

Kind of cool, but this is a feature that is not going to work in the US. Not enough people will carry their 3DS on person.

Wow initially it seemed like there were only a few pictures, but there's quite a few, sweet! Weekly airport visits to collect Miis anyone?

I work in a game store, so I can see myself getting a reasonable amount of Mii's just by bringing it there. That's not counting every other store I go to regularly. This is a nice addition to some already awesome hardware.

I'm frothing at the mouth for this thing, I already have it and Samurai Warriors paid off. Just a few more weeks...

So many full grown men are going to going to jail for the first few weeks of the 3DS release. I can just see it now.

Officer: So, tell us again why you were hanging outside this elementary school all day?

There'll be a point when enough 3DS around will make it reasonable to complete these puzzles here in the US. It's only a matter of time.

@Danzflor: if you watch his nintendogs and AR cards videos you'll be sold. I preordered my 3DS after watching those.
