Trivia[]
- The background music changes in milestones for how many Miis you collect. It changes at 20, 50, 100, 300, 500, and 1,000 Miis, including your Mii.
- First update included StreetPass Quest II and Secret StreetPass Quest II which included many new entities and many new Hats to earn.
- Upon release of the first major update, the shop was glitched preventing anyone from purchasing the DLC until it was updated shortly after release.
- The intro theme is similar to the Japanese kids' song "Kaeru no Uta" (Song of the Frog).
- In Europe, the DLC games must be specifically purchased from a special shop area, while in other regions they can be bought from the game portal. This is due to a law in Europe which states that DLC must be in a seperate shop area, separate from the game, so it's obvious that real money is being exchanged.
