OMG, I got my first tsurechigai (street pass) today! I've had the 3DS since launch day in Japan and it finally happened. (^_^);

That's actually... pretty awesome.

I'd never think you'd actually get one with, you know, not living in Japan and all.

When I get something from Club Nintendo (or Amazon Japan), I tell them to ship to the Japanese address that I got from a forwarding service. When something arrives at my Japanese address, I get notified and then I can pay for them to ship it to my house in the USA.

I think he meant Streetpass.

In which case, I think Streetpasses aren't region specific, meaning he could've gotten a Streetpass with a U.S. 3DS.

Oops. I thought this was a different topic. (>_<);

All 3DS's can street pass with each other.

Just picked up Sonic Generations for 3DS because it went on sale at Target. Ten bucks off plus my employee discount. Good times.

Please tell me you have the PSC60 (say it out loud and it sort of makes sense) version too, it's way better than the Dimpsified 3DS one.
