Fun fact, my best friend got married over that same weekend and a handful of us coordinated to bring our 3DSes with us to the venue. Spent about a week around the wedding street passing and collecting puzzle pieces from each other, it was honestly a good time.
I really wish that Nintendo had brought back Streetpass for the Switch. It was such a cute idea that I unfortunately missed out on because I never had a 3DS, and seeing it back would have been so charming and so very Nintendo
I also feel like it is more common to see people bring their Switch somewhere than it ever was with the 3ds since there are a lot of multiplayer games on switch which you can play with only one console so people sometimes bring it when they meet up with others (I’ve seen a lot of kids play with them near lakes for example)
11 hours by train?! I'd have seen several countries in that time, starting here in the Netherlands. We can be in Paris by train within 8 hours. Mindblowing.
haha yeah europe is much easier to traverse by train! i’ve seen a lot of europeans tell americans to just travel more without really grasping just how big America is. I do envy the ability to just go to different countries though
Yeah America is very big!! Also, if you didn’t know, Jesus will fulfill you more than anything in this world, I speak from experience (from when i did Romans 10:9-13), he loves you and wants to be in a meaningful (not romantic) relationship with you. :) “that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” Romans 10:9-13 KJV “and saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.” Mark 1:15 KJV If you want proof that Jesus and the Bible are true look a documentary called “Ron Wyatt discoveries 2022” on RU-vid and a RU-vid channel called Expedition Bible. They both examine archeological sites and discoveries that prove the Bible, and even reference secular sources. (Just don’t convert to 7th day Adventism after watching the documentary) And lastly if you don’t know the gospel and want to be saved search up “abc’s of Salvation Teenmissions” on Google and it should be the first or second result. When you click on it read the whole thing, and do what it says and have faith in Jesus while you are doing it, do not doubt, and if it is hard for you to do what it says, ask Jesus to help you, have faith that he will, and *he will.* God Bless :)
This video is beautiful. Despite you visiting one of the busiest events at one of the busiest cities on earth, the vibes are so chill. For some reason, it feels like this was a trip where you learnt stuff about yourself and that’s awesome.
@@Dagnel I want to see you pay off all your loans with the recycle box in resident services (you can’t use multiplayer on your Nintendo) only with what appears in the box naturally please I know you do stupid challenges like that
I still remember how many Street Passes I would get at even much smaller conventions than NY Comic Con. Occasionally had to sit down and quickly go through all the encounters so I could get more. It was kind of ridiculous but a lot of fun too. Still fondly remember the two cosplayers who were "selling" magikarps like they do in the game. One was in a team Rocket outfit the other in the outfit of the NPC
i miss streetpass so much. i remember when me and my mum were on the train, we were playing on our ds' (yes, even my mum had a ds. shit was banging) and some chick sitting in front of us was also playing on her ds and she and my mum ended up chatting for a bit, asking what streetpass games she liked the most and stuff (since the lady sitting in front of us was going through her streetpass notifs at the time). those were the glory days. just a simple day trip to the city and we'd easily wind up with ten people on streetpass. i really wish a whole bunch of us could properly band together to popularise streetpass once again. my mum took her ds to the city the other day but she didnt get anyone. its such a shame. i look back on all the streetpass games, acnl, and those shitty $2 ds games you get for the shits and giggles fondly.
its a shame that online services for the 3ds will be dying soon, im assuming streetpass will alongside be shut down. I remember the excitement I'd get from seeing the notification a streetpass tag after going on a car ride or a walk across town, there's never going to be something as similar feeling as that. my 3DS' battery is so shot i cannot play it off the charger, but hopefully I can repair it in time and try to get a tag or two before end. Love these videos Dag, it makes me (and im sure many others) nostalgic of the days of the 3DS lol.
Streetpass is still around! :D Also, if you didn’t know, Jesus will fulfill you more than anything in this world, I speak from experience (from when i did Romans 10:9-13), he loves you and wants to be in a meaningful (not romantic) relationship with you. :) “that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

haven't watched the SF vid yet but i really enjoyed the introspective(?) take/relaxing(?) vibes in this vid, feels refreshing from your usual content, great work as always dagnel!!
This is such a fun idea! I'm going to a convention this spring, so I'll have to try this and see if anyone else brings their 3DS. I used to take mine to school every day so me and my friends could rake in the puzzle pieces/update our animal crossing showcase homes. I'm sad it was never brought back to the Switch... though given the thing's battery life if you leave it alone, it was probably for the better.
man i remember when youd go to cons and get SOO many streetpasses. i think there was a limit on how many the 3ds could get at a time so youd have to stop every now and then to go through them :,) memories
this is such a cozy video, tysm dagnel :) i used to carry my 3ds around with me everywhere in high school, totally took streetpass for granted and it makes me kinda sad to see how few there are now, but its also sweet and nostalgic like a little secret friend group that still remembers it i hope you get lots of rest and recover from the travel!
This is just making me miss streetpass even more i LOVED the the games and cons were a HOT SPOT for getting codes. I even bought additional games for streetpass man they slapped
You posting that you were collecting street passes recently reminded me to bring my 3ds to the convention I was going to! I got 10 over the whole weekend :D
Thank you Dagnel. Youre one of my comfort youtubers and i rewatch your videos all the time. I was having a really rough day and this felt like a phone call with a friend and really made me feel less lonely. ❤ you do amazing work please don’t ever stop
Gosh this video made me so nostalgic for going to conventions and getting Streetpasses in the 2010's, since my hometown was barren of anyone with a 3ds other than me and my sibling 😂
I love the vlog style videos so much! Really looking forward to more Streetpass vids in the future, if they do happen! Hope you had a fantastic time on your trip, Dag!
Thai video was so good! It made me remember how awesome street pass was, and I remember walking around my house with my ds in my pocket to be able to get enough steps for the mystery boxes in ACNL lol😂 also the AC music in this one slaps
This was such a fun video! I was still pretty young when the 3DS' popularity was at its height, so I wasn't really able to do the "walking through the city and getting streetpasses" thing. It's really cool to see that the chance of getting one today isn't zero :O
I never had a 3DS, but watching both of these videos makes me wish I had gotten one. Streetpass looks like such a cool feature, and I'm glad to see you finally got some!
Man I have such fond memories of my little brother and I playing 3DS and helping each other using street pass as well as getting so many of them when I went downtown and to school... I really miss how things like that and Pokemon Go used to bring people together.
This was such a good time watching this ! I wish I could go to New York , as a french guy, and I would have loved seeing you at the con too!! What a pleasant video~
Got the chance to experience street pass when popular and it was the best at cons (also did pretty well at the airport). Pictochat also was so much fun while you waited on lines for panels.
I love the concept ! being a huge fan of the 3ds since its release, it’s great to see this kind of video (even though it was a year ago already 😭) I will confirm what others said, it’s really too bad they didn’t bring a similar option on the switch, but who knows ? Maybe with the switch 2🤞🏻
even though this video is a lot different from your other content, i still really like it and hope you make more vids like this! i really like the more laid back and informal vibe of it :3
Sad that the servers are shutting down in March...you should do at least one more Streetpass thing before the servers are gone forever (they'll probably be brought back with Homebrew tbh)
Awesome video as usual Dag! I feel you on the 12 hour train trip; I took a 12 hour ride once from SC to Florida and my back still hurts thinking about it
I was also at New York Comic Con that Sunday with my 3DS and although I did not get your tag I did get Finn's, so that's pretty cool! Glad to know there's still a ton of us going to cons looking for likeminded nerd people with their 12 year-old gaming systems lol
i had completely forgotten all the cool stuff one could do when getting streetpassed oh my god.. seeing the miis doing their little mini games unearthed deep memories 😭
I'm so glad I got my 3DS in 2016. I went to so many cons that year and in 2017. I'd get hundreds of street passes at each con. I was able to complete all the puzzles!
I remember getting the ugprade to store up to 100 Streetpasses back in the day, and I would get soooo many. It is kind of sad to see that it is harder to get. I should locate my 3DS and charge it to start taking it with me to places again.
I really only get streetpasses at conventions nowadays, you should come to Atlanta for some! Momocon, Dragoncon, or anime weekend Atlanta (which is next weekend, woo).
Holy shit this brings back memories of my teenage years. I remember I had hundreds of streetpass hits and finished the quest and the puzzle thing. Unfortunately thay 3DS died and I lost all my save data, but I have a N3DS now I guess.
The last time i ever got a street pass in the wild was in Paris Nord (train station), waiting for my Eurostar connection... I'm getting a Eurostar again in a couple of weeks I'll try and remember to have my 3ds on in my bag!
I remember when I was in HS my best friend and I would bring ours and street pass every day. Meet up in our last period and compare who we passed by lol. Sometimes we'd not even pass by the same people was so fun!
In around July this year me and my family went on a road trip nothing big it was less than a day long but while we were on the highway I got a streetpass which is already cool but in addition they had Tomodachi life save data and I got one of their travelers. Edit: it might not be cool to you but it cool to me because we were driving in Arkansas which I don't think would have many people looking to streetpass
I saw the community post and went Wheres my 3ds!? Packed away for moving and dead with the charger who knows where 😂 i still need to get it out to see which ace attorney games i have though
I went to too many games in Philadelphia over the summer and I got a good few. Unfortunately I forgot to charge my 3ds for the last two days but the few I got were still enjoyable.
I went to Rome last October at Romics with a friend and only got one StreetPass hit: her. However, she did get three or four. Unfortunately my 3DS has a broken antenna and won't even pick up a WiFi signal unless it's mere centimetres away from the router.
me and my boyfriend got 3ds’ in june of this year. took it halfway across the country on bus and got nothing! 😭 multiple airports to. i also take it to uni everyday and the only streetpasses i’ve ever gotten was with him lol
