Would it be alright to expand this article to include more detail and the image gallery from the Nintendo 3DS article? The section itself needs to be rewritten, but the game features enough Mario content and heavily relies on the Mii as a feature. Plus, it would remove that... assortment... of images from the 3DS article. GBAToad (talk) 11:20, 30 April 2013 (EDT)

There's pretty much no reason to remove the images for StreetPass Mii Plaza, you could find higher quality images (and put in the other hats, which don't relate to Mario) but removing them is no reason to do so. --APA TKB Umbreon, from Pokémon. 11:28, 30 April 2013 (EDT)
That wasn't exactly the premise for the question, but I see what you mean (I kind of oversold that point in my statement). What I meant to ask involved determining whether Super Mario Wiki includes Mii as a character significant to the Mario series, and whether the Mario-related animated images and collectible hats are a large enough influence in the game to consider it a guest appearance as per MarioWiki:Coverage. The whole point of the application is to meet people, and by meeting people you get rewarded Nintendo-related prizes to show-off, which will encourage you to meet people to show them your Nintendo-related, pointless hat. The game serves no function other than collecting everything in the game. Most of these collectibles are Mario-related and the rest are from the other franchises that Nintendo owns.

Ok, you could rewrite that. --APA TKB Umbreon, from Pokémon. 12:36, 30 April 2013 (EDT)
Done, though it isn't exactly rewritten. I've just expanded on the information already in the original sub-section. Any help would be great. GBAToad (talk) 06:27, 1 May 2013 (EDT)
I might add the enemies encountered in the game, but it might be hard to find images of them. --APA TKB Umbreon, from Pokémon. 11:55, 4 June 2013 (EDT)
I was on the fence about adding them myself, but it's great that you've begun doing it. If you are planning on uploading images, I'd suggest creating a table for the enemies, and adding details such as their Appearance, Name, HP and a brief description of their fighting ability to give the section some depth. If you'd like some extra assistance, I'd be more than happy to help :) GBAToad (talk) 18:00, 4 June 2013 (EDT)
To contradict my earlier statement, I think we might be content-creeping this page by adding the Magic and enemies list. While I was expanding the 'Magic' section, I wondered why the additional details were relevant to the Mario series in the first place. I'm a little unsure about removing them, so maybe a second opinion is needed. GBAToad (talk) 21:09, 20 June 2013 (EDT)

June 2013 update.

Nintendo has released version 6.0.0.0-IE2 of the 3DS' system software, and with it came an update to StreetPass Mii Plaza. New features include:

  • Another overhaul of the menu layout. It adds three new options (four for non-NTSC regions): Shop, Check for Updates and Exchange Booth (bear in mind I own the PAL version of the software, so these names may differ between regions). The Play menu has been completely redesigned. It resembles the outside of the plaza, with booths(?) for each of the games.
  • Nintendo has finally decided to cash in on StreetPass Mii Plaza by including a shop where users can purchase four new games: StreetPass Squad, StreetPass Garden, StreetPass Battle and StreetPass Mansion. The shop is run by a bunny, who provides additional information about the games with a tablet.
  • StreetPass Map is now available to non-NTSC versions.
  • Check for Updates is exactly what it says in the name.
  • Exchange Booth allows players to redeem tickets found in the new games for additional Nintendo-related accessories. Most importantly, for the relevance of this article, the outfits (previously hats) menu has been expanded to include more unlockable hats and outfits. The player recieves the Pixel Mario Hat upon opening the software a second time after the update is installed
  • Runs much smoother, and the touch screen shows a menu with all the games the player has purchased for quick access.
  • New puzzle swap panels, including Skyward Sword and 'Heroines'.

Anyway, that's all I can add for now, (I'm on my 3DS, so I can't insert the necessary information into the article yet). I guess all we really need to mention is that there are moar Mario hats.

Alright, I'll try to add the information when I can. Thanks for the info. GBAToad (talk) 22:28, 12 July 2013 (EDT)

Eggplant Man hat?

The Japanese official Nintendo website includes a video that showcases all of the games, however skip to the Garden part and you can see a Mii wearing an eggplant hat that resembles an Eggplant Man. Here's the link. [1]. Should this be mentioned? GBAToad (talk) 17:50, 18 June 2013 (EDT)

Strike that, it's just an ordinary eggplant. :P GBAToad (talk) 18:44, 18 June 2013 (EDT)

What is this exchange booth, one of the options of the Main Menu??? What does it do???

Like I mentioned above (albeit ages ago), this page has a lot of content that is irrelevant to the Mario series. Unlike the puzzle games my current proposal is targeting, built-in titles are deserving of an article on the wiki (hence our Article on AR Games), but tbh we probably don't need to detail every single enemy, potion and spell that appears in StreetPass Quest. I'd rather not do a TPP and just delete the info, since our current coverage policy should be more than enough justification for the cutbacks, but does anyone else think so?
