It would be nice if these passive multiplayer modes were on even when you're playing the game — because, really, how often will you be walking around with your DS still turned on but tucked away, and with that specific game in it, and with that specific mode activated? But, oh well. I'm guessing it would drain your batteries if you were constantly transmitting while playing games normally.

Believe it or not, I've actually had random people hop into a Pictochat before. It was pretty interesting for a little while. Okay, it was actually only two times and each time it was one other person, but it was still a surprise.

Well, yeah, since the Japanese crowd around WiFi hotspots to play DQIX.

I think Square Enix will leave this in. Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker and The World Ends With You had passive Wi-Fi modes when they came out here.

Unfortunately, getting use out of this is a different story especially if you're away from a city or college campus.

@ Mr. Qoo - anime conventions are a great idea too. I really should try that with TWEWY.

I'd imagine it could get use at an anime/game/comic convention. Albeit random and pure luck just like a subway. It's still a really awesome feature. Even if it's just shared with my friends.

sad but true. and it looks like such a neat little function.
I even had problems using TWEWY's passive connectivity because no one has a DS around my neighborhood except a few children. :/

Unless you're in Japan, I doubt you'll happen to find anyone that's just going to be walking by you playing Dragon Quest 6. This will probably get cut from international releases. If it's somehow still included, it probably won't get any use in any of the other countries.
