Copy/pasted from the other questions thread:
I've been wondering this for a while, maybe someone here can help: has anyone else gotten Nintendo Zone to work anytime recently? I keep getting letters from Nintendo about items I can get, but when I go to all the places that are supposed to be Nintendo Zones (McDonalds, Best Buy, etc), I get a random streetpass but no actual Nintendo Zone connection. I've been missing out on all the DLC items because of it.
I remember it used to work back when I first got the game (I stopped playing sometime in 2014 then picked it up again a few months ago), so I thought maybe those places just aren't Nintendo Zones anymore? But then why the random streetpasses? And then where ARE the Nintendo Zone locations now? I want those items! D:
Someone replied to this post and linked the list of zone locations, and McDonalds and Best Buy were on the list, just like they've always been. So, why isn't it working?
