I started playing Tomodachi Life, the Mii sim from the 3DS, again. I love the game’s wacky humor and neat things you can do. And I started to think: what if Nintendo did a sequel for the Nintendo Switch? What would Tomodachi Life be like on Switch? Here are some ideas from me!

What do you get when you put together a bunch of Miis on an island? You may get something like Tomodoachi Life for the 3DS! Animebromii tomodachi life episode 7 english.

Take all your preconceived notions about life's possibilities, crumple them into a ball and toss them out the window. It's time to star in a whole new life.

For those who didn’t play the game, Tomodachi Life is a sim where you put Miis into apartments and then you have to feed them, dress them, give them different looks from their apartments, watch them get together, break up, and even get married and have kids with other Miis. Basically, Tomodachi Life is sort of like the Sims but less three dimensional and you didn’t have to worry about bathroom breaks. Tomodachi life text to speech. The humor in Tomodachi Life is pretty weird. I love the game!

However we haven’t heard anything about a sequel for the game. I don’t know how well the game sold. That hasn’t stopped Nintendo from doing a sequel to a game anyway if they really want to.

So what if a sequel of Tomodachi Life was made for the Nintendo Switch? What would that be like?

Well, on the 3DS, it was very easy to make Miis and also share them via QR codes. The Switch does have a Mii maker and it has a few more features than the 3DS one. So no problem there. That said, there is no camera on the Switch so you couldn’t do QR codes for sharing. My hope is that Nintendo would let you put your Miis online and other people could download them.

I think a Tomodachi Life on the Switch would be more three dimensional than the one of the 3DS. This time, you get to see your Miis walking around in a 3D world. Just like in the 3DS game, you are still the player. Unseen, in first person mode and interacting with your Miis. Maybe Tomodachi Life could be a handheld only game on the Switch. It would be a perfect fit on the Switch Lite!

The Miis would still have apartments, there would still be shops and other things you could do. I’d like to see the Miis be a bit smarter and for the world around them to seem more alive. So maybe Tomodachi Life could be a bit more like the Sims, without bathroom breaks and speeded up time though. Time could still be normal, like Animal Crossing.

Then again, maybe Tomodachi Life on the Switch should be different. Instead of a direct sequel, this time you play as a Mii and live in a Mii world. You can put some of your own Miis in there but other Miis appear too. A 3D world where you can explore, visit shops, work, get married, and more. That could be very interesting.

Either way they go, Nintendo should do a Tomodachi Life sequel for the Switch! The Miis need to make a big return.

Would you play Tomodachi Life for the Nintendo Switch? What do you want the game to be like??

Tomodachi Life[a] is a life simulationvideo game developed by Nintendo SPD and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo 3DS. The game, which is a direct sequel to the Japan-exclusive Nintendo DS title Tomodachi Collection, was released in Japan in April 2013, June 2014 worldwide and July 2014 in South Korea. The game received positive reviews and good sales records. Many reviewers praised the gameplay but criticised the minigames. Its name means Friend Life.

Gameplay[edit]

The game begins with the player naming their island and creating or importing their personal Mii, who is referred to as the player's 'look-alike' and lives in an apartment building. The building holds up to 100 Miis. (or more depending on the date of the release of your copy)

The player visits a married couple's house, where they can be seen playing with their baby.

The player can import Miis from the system's Mii Maker, other devices or QR codes or create them from scratch using the 3DS's camera or the in-game Mii Maker. The Miis are voiced by a text-to-speech software and have unique personalities. Miis can then perform various actions, such as eating, trying on different outfits, falling in love with each other, and engaging in many leisure activities. As more Miis are added to the island, many strange and curious interactions can occur between them, such as friendship, romance, rivalry, romantic relationships and families. As the game goes by, the player unlocks more stores, clothes, food, and places for the Miis to play. They can even unlock a port, where they can give and 'trade' goods with other islands.

Nov 27, 2016  This is a fun game with features that are different from the American game Tomodachi Life. I am giving it five stars, but I do not like the feature of the game where any character can marry each other- as in adults marrying kids, or fall in love with anyone- even if they are married.

Tomodachi Life For Nintendo Switch

Development[edit]

In May 2014, a playable demo of the game was distributed to Platinum members of Club Nintendo in North America, the data of which could be transferred to the final version to unlock a bonus in-game item.[1] The game is bundled with two Nintendo eShop download codes for a 'Welcome version' demo, which can be given to friends.[2] A slightly different demo version was later publicly released for download via the Nintendo eShop. This version does not unlock any features in the full game.

Following the announcement of a worldwide release, controversy arose concerning the impossibility of same-sex relationships. Nintendo stated, 'The ability for same-sex relationships to occur in the game was not part of the original game that launched in Japan, and that game is made up of the same code that was used to localise it for other regions outside Japan.' [3] In May 2013, it was widely reported that a bug in the original Japanese version of the game, which enabled same-sex relationships, was patched by Nintendo.[4] This was refuted by Nintendo in a statement made April 2014, explaining that same-sex relationships were never possible, and that the patch in fact fixed a different issue.[5] Despite various campaigns from users, Nintendo stated that it would not be possible to add same-sex relationships to the game, as they 'never intended to make any form of social commentary with the launch of the game',[6] and because it would require significant development alterations which would not be able to be released as a post-game patch. The company later apologised and stated that if they were to create a third game in the series they would 'strive to design a gameplay experience from the ground up that is more inclusive, and better represents all players.'[7]

Reception[edit]

Tomodachi Life has received positive reviews. It holds an average of 72% and 71/100 on review aggregate sites GameRankings and Metacritic, respectively.[8][9][10]IGN gave the game a score of 8.4, calling it 'a surprisingly funny and rewarding experience.'[11]Polygon gave Tomodachi Life a 7.5 out of 10, praising its likeability despite certain aspects being repetitive.[12]GamesRadar gave the game 4 out of 5 stars, praising its weird humor and relaxing gameplay, whilst criticising the minigames for being too simple.[13]GameTrailers gave the game a score of 6.0, stating 'the pervasive sense of quirkiness in Tomodachi Life works, but can’t sustain the entire game.'[14] The game has received criticism for not enabling relationships between Mii characters of the same sex; Nintendo of America later apologized for failing to include same-sex relationships in Tomodachi Life, stating that it wasn't possible for NoA to change the game's design, or for Nintendo to change this aspect in a post-ship patch. It also noted that 'if we create a next installment in the Tomodachi series, we will strive to design a game-play experience from the ground up that is more inclusive, and better represents all players.'[15][16]

Tomodachi Life Switch Game

Tomodachi Life was the best seller in the Japanese video game market during the week of its release, selling about 404,858 units.[17] By September 2014, its global sales reached 3.12 million units.[18] As of December 31, 2019, Nintendo has sold 6.55 million units of the game worldwide,[19] making it one of the top 10 best selling games on the 3DS.

Legacy[edit]

A stage based on Tomodachi Life appears in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.[20]Miitomo, a social networkingmobile app for iOS and Android devices, was released in March 2016. The app was created by the same core team who developed Tomodachi Life, and features very similar ideas. In 2016, a similar game involving Miis, Miitopia, was released in Japan.[21] It was released worldwide the following year.
