3DS Q&A

I created this thread specifically for any and all 3DS related questions anyone may have. I'm finally about to have a 3DS of my own soon, and I'm probably going to have at least a few inquiries.

I ordered my Flame Red 3DS from Amazon, and it was listed as being in new condition. Can anybody inform me if there are any tell tale signs it's still factory sealed and has never been opened? Like should there be a clear sticker over the tab that opens the box containing the 3DS?

I bought mine used sorry

There should be a Nintendo seal sticker on the 3DS box but it's not exactly a telltale sign of if it's new or not

Don't worry about it Staroceancrazy, but thanks for your input. I already received a very thorough and extensive answer at NLife.

KingreX32, I really didn't need you to activate a poll in this thread my friend. I don't believe I asked for one either, but thanks for your effort my friend.

srry bout that dude.

I have another 3DS question for you guys. I was trying to transfer over my Mii from my Wii console onto my 3DS, but I just couldn't seem to do it. I followed the onscreen instructions, but the A, B, 1 and hold 2 button combo didn't do anything. Can anybody please inform me if I'm not doing something right? I basically just went into the Mii edit screen on my Wii, and just tried to copy the same configuration on my 3DS.

I went and performed a transfer myself so I could help you better. Here's what I did:

1. Load up the Mii Channel on your Wii
2. Press A, B, 1, and then hold down the 2 button until "Begin Wireless Communication?" shows up on the screen
3. Load up the Mii Channel on the 3DS and press send/receive, select "Mii Channel (Wii)"
4. The rest should be obvious. After pressing "yes" on the Wii, communication will begin and your Wii will pop up on the 3DS as a place to draw Miis from

Alright, thanks Yoshi. I must not have held down on the 2 button long enough, or something. I'll try again, and let you know how it goes.

The problem might also be that you can't execute the trick anymore. If someone on the console has already done the A, B, 1, 2 thing, a new icon will appear on the bottom right side of the screen that says "Connect to DS". Use that one instead.

It worked this time Yoshi, but now I have another problem. The 3DS won't allow me to change my personal Mii character. Is there some way I can change the personal Mii on my friend card? Also, how do I add the stationary my friends send me? Someone sent me a bunch of stationary, but it's not in my stationary options.

It's understandable you wouldn't know how do that part. It requires you to go in the StreetPass Plaza of all places.

1. Go to the StreetPass Mii Plaza and select the Mii that is currently your personal Mii
2. Select "Mii Settings", then "StreetPass Settings".
3. Pick the Mii you want to be your personal Mii from the list. It may or may not work with your imported Mii, so hope for the best...

As for the Swap Note stationary troubles, I wish I could help more but I rarely use it.

Thanks dude. I wouldn't have figured that out for a very longtime. lol
