Keep it strong
One of the features of the 3DS which I often forget about is Streetpass. When I first got my 3DS I was mad for Streetpass Quest and the basic idea of it is actually really great, that by simply walking past another 3DS owner you get a little bit of interaction with them in another game. In Mario Kart 7 you get to race against Miis via Streetpass. In Super Mario 3D Land you got items like Fire Flowers via Streetpass. In Resident Evil: Revelations Streetpass put other players into Raid Mode for you to find and kill, earning some nifty upgrades when you did.
Along with Streetpass are the Play Coins. You earn these by walking around with your 3DS in your pocket. As the pedometer (a word I hate for very... 'not-suitable-for-normal-conversation' reasons) counts steps it adds Play Coins to your total. These Coins can be used in a variety of ways, buying Heros or puzzle pieces on Streetpass Quest and buying weapons and loadouts on Resident Evil: Revelations and The Merceneries 3D for example.
While a Zelda game wouldn't have to make any particular use of either of these features (indeed, many 3DS games ignore them completely), in what ways do you think Streetpass or Play Coins could enhance the Zelda experience?
I have a couple of thoughts but I'll share them later on. I want to hear what you guys think.
