Streetpass Problem?

[charlyliz]

I have had New Leaf for 4 months now, and everyday I street pass people who are playing the game. However, my Happy Homes Showcase is EMPTY. I refuse to believe that non of these people have enabled street pass on their game? I have checkedon my 3ds settings, as well as enabling with Digby, but to no avail

Most of my street passes come from nintendo zones (the six at once thing), so do you think that might be an issue?

I am not sure, maybe they all opted out for ac. Do you have your cart in when you get the street passes? I am not sure if that makes a difference or not.The amount shouldn't matter, I use Nintendo zone when I can. 39 of the people I street passed, I only got 6 houses.

I've only steetpassed 3 or 4 people who have last played ACNL and got no new houses in the Showcase and they also had no new puzzle swap pieces. I figured they were pretty brand-new to ACNL and 3ds for that matter.

If you are getting your streetpasses from relays - there is a weird glitch in the relay system that can prevent you from getting streetpass data. At best, you get one streetpass per game when you get 6 Miis in your plaza anyway. But the glitch is that one random game will not be given any data at all. I've had friends check it on several consoles and in several states now so it's definitely a widespread issue.

If this is your problem, there are two fixes -- you need to either max out another game's SP data, which will cause that game to be skipped and ACNL to start getting data; or you need to get your 3DS to skip a different game.

I had the exact same problem, ACNL was the game I was not getting data for -- I borrowed a friend's copy of Nintendogs, loaded the game and enabled streetpassing on MY 3DS (this did not hurt or affect her game in any way). Ta-Da, Nintendogs gets skipped unless one of my other games is maxed, and now I always get an ACNL house when I SP a relay.

Great to know, thanks everyone. I am going to try some of your hints and see if I can get any more homes
