I bought my N3ds 5 days ago. FW 9.0. I streetpassed my other 3ds xl fw 9.5 that has 35 panels complete. I'm using playcoin hb on my n3ds so I can have 300 coins all the time. After 7 complete puzzles I'm not getting any mark on the puzzle swap game. All other streetpasses works perfectly on the n3ds. I have 6 people in my plaza on the n3ds. Is there some restrictions for how many puzzles you can get each Week? Or any other restrictions?

You need to turn on spotpass in streetplaza and put it in sleep mode, allowing it to download the data for the new puzzles. But I believe you want to stay on 9.0 so it will probably give you the update nag.

I don't think you have to upgrade, but it will download the update in the background causing a pop up asking you to update. But I understand your fears.

But how big is the fw update? Perhaps the fw update take some longer time to download than the puzzle swap spotpass upDate. You are correct about that I don't want to have the update nagging message.

Spotpass for MiiPlaza and Spotpass for system settings are two different things. SpotPass for MiiPlaza will download an update for MiiPlaza only, not your system. Spotpass in system settings will potentially download a system update. If you want to have a NNID on your N3DS at some point you will have to accept the TOS anyway. You can still get streetpasses without a wifi connection as well.

Yes! Thanks all :) I'm still on 9.0 and got new puzzle panels! I'm going to a Japan convention this weekend so there will be hundreds of streetpasses there :)

I'm pretty sure that without spotpass turned on in system settings, it will still download the system update, but it won't download things like Youtube or things like that.

I guess it will Do that. I turned my Internet off one second after the mii plaza was updated. I guess the fw update is much bigger than the mii plaza update. I'm happy :)

Be sure to play a game before you go to the convention.

Else if you use playcoin setter, everybody you streetpass with, will see playcoinsetter as last played game (I had a few in my streetpass with that as last played game)

Thanks for the tips. But wouldn't it show Cubic ninja as the last played game?

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the vram is one advantage when it comes to AI but ends up being slower even with that and really AI is the only use case that needs more than 12gb vram right now
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Interesting lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think I watched a video where two games at 4K where eating just over 16GB of RAM and it's the one case where the 7900XT and XTX pulled ahead (minus RTX of course)
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    So my opinion is that they could age a bit better in the future, and maybe AMD will continue improving them via drivers like they tend to do. No guarantee there but they have done it in the past. Just a feeling I have.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    cyberpunk at 4k without DLSS/fidelityfx *might* exceed 12gb
    +1
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that game barely runs at native 4k
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think it was some newer games and probably poorly optimized PS4 or PS5 ports
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    they definitely will age better but i feel dlss might outweigh that since it looks about as good as native resolution and much less demanding
    +1
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    When I played Cyberpunk on my old 2080 Ti it sucked lol
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    AMD could introduce something comparable to DLSS but nvidia's got a lot more experience with that
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    least amd 7xxx has tensor cores which the previous generations didn't so there is the potential for AI upscaling
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They have FSR or whatever it's called and yeah it's still not great
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so AMD seem to finally be starting to take AI seriously
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Oh yeah those new 8000 CPUs have AI cores built in that's interesting
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Maybe they plan on offloading to the CPU?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Would be kinda cool to have the CPU and GPU working in random more
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Tandem even
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i think i heard of that, it's a good idea, shouldn't need a dedicated GPU just to run a LLM or video upscaling
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the nvidia shield tv has AI video upscaling
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    LLMs can be run on cpu anyway but it's quite slow
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    Have you ever been beaten by a wet spaghetti noodle by your girlfriend because she has a twin sister, and you got confused and fucked her dad?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I had a girlfriend who had a twin sister and they would mess with me constantly.... Until one chipped a tooth then finally I could tell them apart.... Lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They would have the same hair style the same clothes everything... Really messed with my head lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    @The Real Jdbye, I could see AMD trying to pull off the CPU GPU tandem thing, would be a way to maybe close the gap a bit with Nvidia. Plus it would kinda put Nvidia at a future disadvantage since Nvidia can't make X86/64 CPUs? Intel and AMD licensing issues... I wonder how much that has held back innovation.
