Street Pass is one of the most interesting features coming to our 3DSs and Super Street Fighter IV 3D Edition’s Figurine Mode is leading the way to making the most of this new technology.
Until now we’ve known you will be able to battle against other players when you’re not even using your 3DS, but exactly how it works has all been a bit confusing. After a Capcom round table and a discussion with a well informed Capcom representative, we can shed some light on the subject.
When you’re ready to put your 3DS into sleep mode, you can select a team of 5 fighters. If you pass someone else with street pass set up, the two teams will do battle.
But how is the winner decided? It’s all based on stats. Similar to a Role Playing Game, each fighter has a strength level, hit points and attack points. As you take part in more battles, you’ll gain experience for your team members. From a screenshot I saw at the round table (which we weren’t allowed to take photos during), there is also an “SC” stat and one other stat which was obscured behind some presentation graphics. Any suggestions what these could be are welcome.
The way this will work is likely to be that each fighter will be randomly paired with one from the other team. The character will lose a number of hit points depending on the level and other stats of their opponent. The team who wins the most matches out of 5 is the overall winner. You won’t want to stick with the same team of 5 on each outing since after a few battles, your fighters will be low on hit points.
To gain more figurines, you can win or trade them with other players or download them free of charge. It looks like all the fighters of SSFIV3D will be available in the box, so downloadable figurines will most like be of characters from previous Street Fighter games.
Best of all, Figurine Mode will be available free to anyone, even those who don’t own SSFIV3D.
