    Darn you Capcom, you were supposed to pick StreetPass Arizona!!!

    • cacaboy

      yea i liv in arizona, ive had my 3ds since launch and ive gotten 1 “hit”

    • Kaio

      Me too but I’ve had 10 hits. I always carry it to me when I go anywhere. I got most of them at a few malls(In gamestop) but one at the Apple store.

    • mightymeatsauce

      For those in AZ, check out the Meetup website, or join the streetpass AZ group on facebook. I’ve been to 2 events so far and the group seems to be getting bigger.

  • Adam

    Not one canadian location, capcom disapoints me again.

    • Blake Turner

      I agree. We Canadians always get pushed aside. :(

    It’ll be many a year before we get a streetpass event in Alaska…

    Southwest U.S. pretty much ALWAYS gets screwed over.

  • OMG IT’S METALGEAR!

    WHAT ABOOT CANADA!?

  • RicardoSForever

    Come on now, what gives? Europe events only on Germany and Netherlands? They’re are a lot of countries in Europe Capcom, not only 2.

  • http://3dsblog jester

    Im not driving to Hollywood or Ontario for two hours. Sucks to live in a normal city in California.

    • lizzie1238

      Ontario sounds so weird as a city, that’s the province I live in!!!

  • ManByMyles93

    “Stop the Swarm” sounds catchy. Someone, write a song!

  • lizzie1238

    What the hell?! There are 2 events in germany and netherlands, but none in Canada!!!!!!! That is effing messed up!!!!!

  • CaseyJay

    partenered? i thought the dumb arses didn’t give us saves so we weren’t touching that shit?

  • Sjoerd

    I could go to Arnhem, it’s just a few minutes cycling for me… But I don’t have RE the Mercenaries :)

  • Felixej

    ehm guys, what`s up?
    It`s not an official Capcom event. It`s up to you to create a facebook page, an event and contact the admin of the StreetPass Network.
    As far as I know Capcom is just supporting us by recommending the events somewhere.
    If you are too lazy to invest 1-2 hours to create a medium, which helps you to meet other 3DS owners in Canada, Honululu or whereever, even Nintendo can`t help you ;)
