StreetPass settings for Nintendo 3DS software are saved on the system. The data you transmit with StreetPass varies depending
on the software using this feature. Each software program has its own StreetPass settings.
• Up to 12 Nintendo 3DS software titles can use StreetPass simultaneously.
• Some Nintendo DS and Nintendo DSi software have a similar feature called tag mode. (The name for this mode may vary
depending on the game you are playing.) Tag mode is only active when the system is in Sleep Mode while the software and
tag mode feature are in use. When tag mode is in use, the StreetPass feature will not work for Nintendo 3DS software.
• If you turn the power off or disable wireless communication, the system cannot communicate (page 22).
• StreetPass may not be available depending on the play environment or the software you are using. StreetPass does not work
if you are connected to the Internet or are using local communication (page 18).

NOTE:
A message will appear in
your notification list (page 23).
If the system is in Sleep Mode (turned on but closed) or certain other modes, and you pass someone who
has enabled StreetPass for the same software, you will exchange game data with them. (If you don’t want
to allow data exchange, you can disable wireless communication.)
The StreetPass feature allows your system to automatically search for and communicate
with other systems in the Nintendo 3DS family and to exchange information with them
as you walk by.
