Come stop by anytime you want to meet fellow Nintendo 3DS gamers. Down the escalators is the food court just in case you get hungry.

 At around 6:00 PM we plan on hosting a Kid Icarus: Uprising Tournament (LIGHT vs DARK,

--WHAT IS STREETPASS NORTH JERSEY GATEWAY?--

StreetPass North Jersey Gateway is a subset of the StreetPass Network that will cover the Gateway Region of New Jersey which encompasses the Bergen, Essex, Hudson, Passaic, Union and Middlesex counties.

For more on the Gateway Region: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gateway_Region

The group will focus the majority on Passaic, Bergan and Essex but will venture out to farther places and to tourist locations like the Shore when the weather and timing is right.

We are an open, safe group of gamers who meet once a month to exchange Nintendo 3DS information via Street Pass in the North New Jersey Gateway Region.


--WHO IS ORGANIZING THIS STREETPASS GROUP?--

Jordan White is mainly known for being the Founder and Event Organizer of StreetPass NYC. The New York City subset of the StreetPass Network in little over a year has passed over 1,000 members on Facebook alone and has meeting attendence ratings average 30+ gamers into the hundreds plus a global reach between 8,000 to 16,000 Nintendo fans. They have also worked with Nintendo of America and video game third party publishers (Capcom, Square Enix, Namco Bandai, Activision, Ubisoft) to assist in launching Nintendo 3DS and Nintendo video games/hardware.

People are often shocked when StreetPassing Jordan that he actually has been raised in the Gateway Region of New Jersey for most of his life. A childhood in Kearney, an adolescence in Rutherford and an adult life in Clifton means Jordan knows north east New Jersey and all of it's fun tourist attractions and gamer hang outs.

Unlike the behemoth that is the New York City StreetPass group, Jordan is eager to set up and attend events in his hometown and surrounding area so he can chat and play with gamers without worrying about deadlines and transportation to and from New York.
