- Short FAQ:
- Q: How are you gonna get the 5,000 bug badge during this segment if you're playing the other games already?
- A: Well, it's a bit complicated. First thing's first, I'll most likely not get 5,000 bugs, more like maybe half of them if I'm lucky? But long story short, if I want to grind the visitors badge, the best way is to have 3 other games come visit me then end session and repeat. I want to grind 2 other games as well and that's a lot of battery usage total from all those 3DS's. Thankfully since I have 8 3DS's I can use total for grinding so I use the first 5, then swap out for the last 3 and use 1 of them to grind town visits which only needs 1 other 3DS to do the hosting. Then the last 2 can be used for grinding. All the while I have 2 other chargers I can use on the side so I'm charging 2 of the first 5 3DS's while grinding town visits. Then once those 3 3DS's die I can swap out for the first 2 charged 3DS's while charging 2 more so now I have 2 games to grind which is perfect. Next I'll switch to the Dreamer badge to grind while charging 2 more 3DS's. Now I have a loop going of 2 3DS's at a time to use between charged/dead. So now I'll do this until I get the 500 Dreams badge. Then I want to charge ALL the 3DS's I have so I figured the best way to do that is grind some bugs at the island while waiting for that THEN after all that I can loop back AROUND to the visitor badge, then the town visits when the 1st group of 5 3DS's dies again, then bugs to charge ALL 3DS's, and so on. This is done until I get close to 500 town visits/visitors since I'm still gonna be doing a little bit of town visiting and whatnot later on for Katie.
- And then streetpassing I'll just do whenever ig. lol
- (I swear that's gonna get turned into a copypasta lmfao)
- Q: Wait... grind streetpass? How does that work?
- A: Yeah, it sounds confusing at first, since Nintendo made it so you can only get a streetpass hit from each console 8 hours at a time, and since I have 8 other 3DS's I can streetpass, it would take at least 41 days to get 1,000 streetpass tags so yeah... not RTA viable. Thankfully however, there's a homebrew app that actually clears the MAC filter on your 3DS, which pretty much means it clears the need to wait 8 hours for a streetpass. So now it only takes about 8 hours of grinding to get 1,000 streetpass tags! Now you could argue whether or not this is legit or not, but it is allowed on the leaderboard and without it, this speedrun wouldn't be doable unless I wanted to spend even more money on more 3DS's than I already have so yeah no thanks. lol
- Q: What about K.K. Songs?
- A: For those I'll just grind up until the amount of K.K. songs remaining. So let's say I have 48 K.K. Songs, that means I can grind at least 52 K.K. Songs since I'll honestly have to listen to at least 25 or so K.K. Songs to get the rest of the K.K. Songs in the catalog because getting all of them from the shop is a pain.
