Cool new info on 3DS tag mode, appears in new trademarks...

Heres the link, sounds like they are ditching the nintendo wifi connection in favor of crosspass network...

I don't want them to use tag mode as the main Internet feature. Canada and others places populations are way to spread out for it to work.

But that doesn't work very well outside of Japan, the population is very dense in Japan. But other places you could easily go all day without walking close by to someone who is doing the same thing

Okay so thats not going to have a very high population density. Your chances of coming across other people in tag mode is much smaller than someone in Japan or even in a place like New York. I hope this tag mode is a small part of the online experience because outside of Japan its not going to work that well

It's not a replacement to Nintendo Wifi. It's a replacement to the old tag mode. It just means if you do ever pass some one who is as crazy as you, to be carrying a 3Ds around in public, then your DS's will trade info. It has nothing to do with actually playing online against other people.Raiko101

Whats wrong besides the possiblity of scratches of having your 3DS or DSi in your pocket??
