Puzzle Swap

Puzzle Swap is a game that comes preinstalled with every Nintendo 3DS system. It can be found in the Mii Plaza and is one of two games in the plaza that make use of the system's StreetPass functionality. With it, players can collect puzzle pieces either by passing by other 3DS users or by using Play Coins. For 2 Play Coins, the user can obtain a single puzzle piece, though the piece is not guaranteed to be new.

There are several puzzles available in the game that focus on famous Nintendo characters such as Mario, Yoshi, Samus Aran, Link, Kirby and the Pikmin.

When Puzzle Swap is first started, a default puzzle is given to the user. The default puzzle varies for each user, and it is unclear how this puzzle is determined. Some have suggested that the state, province or country one chooses when they first start their 3DS determines their puzzle. This hasn't yet been confirmed, however. The only way to start a new puzzle is to pass by other 3DS owners who will send puzzle pieces from their puzzle boards.
