Wish the Vita's Near thing worked like the 3DS's Streetpass. The beauty of Streetpass is it works /offline/ and isn't a "share your location with Nintendo constantly" kind of thing.

@frostwolf Near is more like Ingress/Pokémon Go though

@frostwolf I think Near lets you place stuff in an overlay over the real world for others to discover

@noiob (I think when we were looking up Vita stuff, "T@g" was that? And it required a 3G Vita. That's honestly the main reason I was thinking about going for one of those. We ended up with a 2000 instead!)

@frostwolf yeah, that. I think I mixed it up. Near seems to have a 10-mile radius though, and the ability to "drop" things on the map

@noiob Oh, neat.

Honestly I'd try it out if I wasn't skeeved out by the location sharing thing.
