However, the system chooses whether to receive either the Mii for the Mii Plaza or the tag for the game.  For example, if someone has MK7 in their system and Streetpass is activated for that title, you will get the tag for MK7, but not for the Mii Plaza.  If they do not have a game set to broadcast tags, then you will get a normal tag for the Mii Plaza.

Ok, I KNOW that's wrong. See, I'm part of a Streetpass group and every event, from every person, I get a tag for streetpass mii plaza AND various other games at the same time.

Though I agree with your first point. So how could they have succeeded in tagging me with Mk7 and SM3DL without tagging me with streetpass mii plaza?

It hasn't ever happened to me before. I've always gotten, for each person I streetpass, a tag for the plaza and a tag for any given game the person may have. But this is interesting, I checked the Streetpass management part of the system settings and it turns out that one can deactivate streetpass for streetpass mii plaza, but nothing else if they so choose!

I too am a member of a Streetpass group (Streetpass NYC).  What happens to me is more randomized than what I said in my above post.  I usually get more game tags than Mii Plaza tags.  Yesterday I got 3 tags for MK7, 1 tag for SM3DL, and 2 tags for Resident Evil: Revelations, but only one tag for the Mii Plaza.  Sometimes I will get the same Mii for SM3DL and Mii Plaza, but it is almost always turns out that I get separate tags.

If this is the case for you, then are most people in New York deactivating streetpass mii plaza for some reason?

PS: Thanks for asking around.

I'll go ahead and email Nintendo to see what they have to say. I'll post when I get an answer.

Well today, I got a tag from the same person, that I only had tagged with MK7 and SM3DL before, and got a tag for SM3DL and Streetpass Mii Plaza. So it seemed to just be a fluke. However, I have not gotten a message back from Nintendo regarding the email I sent them about this subject, so maybe it's something else (not staying within range long enough?).

Today, I got 7 tags for MK7, 1 for RE:R, 1 for SM3DL, but only 7 Miis for the Mii Plaza.

If this keeps happening to you, there might be something wrong. You should probably call Nintendo if this is the case...

Although, those tags for the games could have been from the same people (someone could have tagged with SM3DL and Mii Plaza)...
