My boyfriend and I have a 3DS XL. We play Pokemon X and Y and Mario Kart 7. We normally like to do local play because we are not always around a wifi connection. Today we wanted to try doing dual battles on pokemon and that only uses local and we noticed there was a strange issue where he would appear online for me but I would appear offline for him. Then suddenly after waiting a few minutes it will swap and ill show up online for him and he will show as offline for me. Originally we thought Pokemon X and Y was having problems so we tried disabling the wifi and re-enbaling it, we tried restarting the entire systems and reloading pokemon but no same problem. We tested the wifi and it connections to the internet just fine. It seems to be local play. Well the next thing we tried to test was to see if Mario Kart 7 would connect locally. Nope. I would create a room and after a little while then it show up on his 3DS he would connect to it and it pop up on his screen saying "Connection Error" (no code). We even tried it where he made the room and I would connect to it, same issue. It seems for some reason local play isn't working. I am wondering if anyone else had a issue with this. It doesnt seem to be hardware at all being the wifi connects to our router and to the internet just fine, so i'm wondering if streetpass or something is screwed up, and if there are any fixes at all? I not really sure what to do, we don't exactly have a 3rd 3DS laying around to test out who 3DS is having the problems.
