Default Streetpass

My 3DS is slowly dying in a corner from loneliness, I need streetpasses!
Do you all get many streetpasses? I live in London which is a major city but have only gotten 1 streetpass in the 2 years I've had my 3DS and it's not even like I live in a remote area. I really want to get some houses to order furniture.

go to GAME, and hmv, and other game stores, you'd be more likely to pass people there with a 3ds than anywhere else

or look out for a london streetpass community

Idk i had issues with streetpass at first being in hawaii. But now i get tons of them with animal crossing. Mostly japanese ones with amazing houses. The more good games that come out the more people will buy the 3DS.

I'm from Hawaii also and I also get tons of Streetpasses thanks to the Streetpass relay points located in most Starbucks and McDonald's stores. I previously frequent the Ala Moana mall but now I just collect Streetpasses from the Leeward area where I live.

Never had this problem and i don't live in a big town.

Just bring your 3DS to game stores, malls, and anything else that might be considered nerdy.

McDonald's. I drive into the parking lot and wait for my 3DSes to flash the green light, then drive away. I never even stop the engine.

I live in a very remote part of the US and do not get many streetpasses. But I did take a trip to Europe recently. The Louvre in Paris, France is a streetpass bomb!!! I got like 15 - 20 streetpasses from around the world. I streetpassed people from Italy, Spain, France, Germany, US, and even Japan, all from the Louvre.

Every time I bring my 3DS out, I'll usually get at least one streetpass. Especially if I'm going to a GameStop or a store with a 3DS demo system (those things are lifesavers if you need a certain colored Mii for Find Mii/2). It also goes without saying that I get tons of passes whenever I go to a Nintendo event or a con (I'm going to one this weekend, pretty neat coincidence since it's also the "National Streetpass Weekend").
