i truly hope that nintendo releases a switch version of this game, it would be amazing to see the game with upgraded graphics and new features

My favorite memory with this game is when I made this guy with big sunglasses and a big nose and mustache, gave him a big trench coat and hat, I messed around with his voice so his inflection would go up at the end of every sentence to sound like he was always asking a question, I named him Suspicious Guy, and right after I made him I went to go solve some other Mii problems and one of the first ones was the random person in a disguise on the roof of the apartment and IT WAS SUSPICIOUS GUY! He literally just put on a different pair of sunglasses and a new mustache. It was the funniest thing I had ever had happen because he just showed up on the island and immediately started living up to his name and threatening the other residents. I aspire to be that one dimensional some day

"I like my women like my salad." "Dressed." Genius 😭

could you IMAGINE if there was a tomodachi for the switch and they gave the same insane customization that they gave miitopia

Tomodachi Life is like if Sims, Animal Crossing and Tomogatchis all had a very fucked up baby together. I love it so much.

One time one of my Miis wanted to confess so I told her to confess at the Café. After confessing a Mii sitting in the next table turned around and confessed her love for the same guy. Then another Mii turned and confessed, then another, and then another. He picked the second one to confess and dumped his girlfriend. I have been searching for that high again ever sense and I have yet to find it.

oh my god the "hate" animation for food traumatized me so much everytime I gave my Miis food I put my hand over the screen

Fun fact about Tomodachi Life, it has a surprising amount of differences between versions. To bring one random example, the Japanese version has Word Chain but doesn't have Rap Battle, the US version has Rap Battle but doesn't have Word Chain, and the European version has both.

i lost my copy of this game. but it was so chaotic. my character that i hated. fell in love with my me. and they got married. i sat in fear of what i had created.

i got tomodachi life when i was 8 or 9 after i saw my friend playing it. as i was setting up the game i was walking with my mom through walmart, when my mii asked for a friend and i ended up looking at some board congratulating some old dude who worked there, who was named guy. i thought it was the funniest name in the world so i made him a mii. later on me and guy became sweethearts, then married. in late middle school i remembered him and added him to my new save file and we ended up married again. every day i live in fear that i will meet someone named Guy because i will have no choice but to fall in love

If you gave your Miis enough money through level ups you could actually send them to space, which was pretty cool but not exactly worth taking on the role of sugar daddy for them.

This game is great for about 2-4 weeks, but when the "lol oh so random" novelty wears off & everything starts to repeat itself, you need to take a long break from it, like several years for you to forger everything. But the one thing you never get tired of is creating new Miis based off franchises.

This game is really fun and people still play it to this day!

I'm glad there are people who loved this game as much as I did. I'd throw 100$ at Nintendo if they came out with a sequel😂. Tomodachi life was probably top 5 best games of the decade

Had a mii that I loathed. He tried asking out my mii but I said not to do it. Then karma hit: my mii asked him out. They got married an hour after. The next day they had a kid. Tomodachi you cruel mistress.

This game is what a game should be: Able to be fun while not requiring days of both skill and effort. You can play it whenever you'd like, something always happens in it so it drives you to check back on it now and then, and you don't need to be ranked #1 in skill in order to enjoy most or all of the game. All the popular, maybe even unknown games out there are still fun to play, just that most require a lot more of your time and skill now.

Tomodachi Life is basically a Slice of Life fanfiction generator.

I made a mii for my mom and dad around the first time i played. They broke up once, got married, got divorced, and all four of my dad's mii's kids hated him

Ill never forget tomodachi life. I got it after "loosing" my first teeth (i had like 3 pulled out lmao) from the tooth fairy. It was a game id seen ads for on tv and really wanted. I had so much fun with it even though i just added random characters id seen codes for online and created characters from shows i liked. I think at one point trump and michelle obama were dating

In terms of gay miis, I've just started making my gay friends the opposite gender so they can date the 'same sex.'

I need a new Tomodachi Life game YESTERDAY

Shoutout to how silly the way you edit is, always makes me laugh

As someone that grew up in fandom culture that also owned tomodachi life this game was a shipper's fever dream. At the end of my time playing it i had an entire apartment building full of the max number of miis all designed to look like anime characters and had successfully paired off all of my otps as couples 😂 it was a fantastic pastime, i really hope nintendo releases a remake soon

The Miis can actually dislike the interiors you give them! Only the ones like the shack and prison cell, but their happiness does go down and they’ll say something like “This is the new room? It’s… umm.. well..”

I added a Jerma Mii to my island, and proceeded to give him onion rings as one of his first meals. The scream laugh I made when he blasted off into space was so priceless… Onion Rings are Jerma’s super all-time favorite… I couldn’t even make that up and this has been my favorite Tomodachi Life moment for a while

i cant believe you told everyone i cant play the violin

never thought i'd see the day someone got philosophical about a game where rosalina and peter griffin can get married

the broken car song has me light headed from laughter

As someone who has only played the US version of Tomodachi Life, I had no idea there was a word association event at the fountain. In the US version I think it's replaced by rap battles which can be pretty fun to watch

There’s always something new in this game, always a weird funny event to happen upon

When I first got this game a long time ago the GameStop employee did their damndest to detour me from getting it. They’d ask if I wanted the new cod game instead and just kept asking me if I REALLY wanted this game. I loved tomodatchi life

As fun as Tomodachi life was, it’s a little sad and a tad creepy with what happens when you decide delete your island..

So for rooms theres one room as far as i know that actually UPSETS the mii a bit, thir level bar drops and they have special dialogue. The Jail Cell. Its the only one I've been able to find that your mii's will question. which is pretty neat!

I love this game and would love an updated version of it with more character customisation features (I’ve always felt the Miis were lacking in it) and more things for them to do, interact with etc. More stores, mini games maybe get them jobs or have npc miis we can complete fetch quests for and an option to put previous miis into new games

verge's rap actually went kinda hard

a tomadachi life remake with miitopia level customization would literally go so hard

I think Tomodachi Life while being worse than the Sims is honestly it's biggest strength. It allowed it to focus more on the character of the game and it shows. Yes, this isn't Nintendo Sims, but just... Nintendo. That's what I get from this in every aspect. I would adore to see its return, but at the same time, I fear for it's return since it might not be as good in the new it gets than the old it gets. Also Luigi's Mansion Dark Moon LEGIT makes this game 10x more possible. I can't joke about how interesting the fact that the game getting it's remake on the switch is for this game.

my favorite memories of the 3DS involve this game…. my family and i spent a month in the dominican republic to visit family. my brother had this game and brought his 3DS. my siblings and i all took turns with playing, making funny characters and dressing them up. i was around 10 at the time, i turn 20 this year. good memories.

This game was my childhood. I really wish we could get one for switch. It’s incredible.

I just recently started replaying this game with my boyfriend. As a trans individual I originally played before coming out and it’s so nice and funny to watch my new Mii interact in different ways I love this game so much

A switch port of this game, even if it was like the miitopia port (only graphical updates and slight extra gameplay but largely the same) I’d be so happy. Miitopia on switch proved miis are still worthwhile for Nintendo and having that new iteration of mii maker integrated into the game would give you a lot more room to make characters you want to

this game was SUCH a huge part of my childhood and by that i mean i still reference "you drive an old car" with my sister bc that failure response in the rap battles was just so funny to us also i miss my old save and my travelers and the weird connection to my love life- i need to get remarried in tomo life badly goodbye i have to go do that

When I was younger I lost my old copy of the game (most likely got stolen) so I decided to buy a new one… I got it in the mail yesterday and you can best bet I cried when I saw the loading screen. Even with all the questionable stuff going on Tomodachi life held up pretty good, the humor is great, I actually like having little to no control over the miis cause it makes the gameplay just so much more special and overall the nostalgic feel you get from the mini games to watching your mii self get married, it really is a great game (except for the inclusivity parts but then again it got released in 2013 so who can blame them).

"I like my women how I like my salad dressed" GOD THATS FIRE I'M SO USING THAT

This was such a great video! I bought this game a couple years ago and while I did burn myself out from it after a while, I've had so much fun just building a world with these little Mii's, and I know that after taking a break I'd be happy to pick it back up and start all over again. I was never able to quite put my finger on why this game is so much fun, but I think you described it perfectly. Awesome video, mate. You've earned a sub :]

i recall having my mii getting married, having a dog and a child with my crush and i was so happy ! it took me months to got them together and micro managing their hazardous choice. it is such a precious childhood memory, my sister still own the game (i believe so) and it was such a daring game with a graphic style still so fun to watch with realistic hands ! in France it wasn't that mainstream except the adds but i don't remember people talking about it much sadly :c

watching this video gave me flash backs to being at the hospital for houuuurss visiting my grandma and just continually playing tomodachi life having the time of my life

Here is an explanation of the 3 missing map items, When your Miis get married and have children, the children grow up and you can choose between them living on the island or going away to become explorers. They go to the docks (anchor symbol) until your streetpass someone and then they go and visit their island, they hang around on the other persons island at the campsite (symbol to the left of anchor) and act a bit like a temporary islander for them, they can come back to you and visit and send letters and stuff as well. the t shirt symbol on the left is your imports/exports, upon making your island, you get an outfit you export, and streetpassing with people will result in them getting that outfit and you getting the one they export.

i BEGGED for this game when it released, and i remember opening my 3ds on christmas, screaming, and instantly running off to my bedroom to ignore everyone that came over in favor of booting up the game and playing for hours. even after all this time, i still boot it up at least every few months

My main goal on tomodachi life was to marry my anime crushes

The drama of tomodachi life made 8yr old me so happy. This was some of the drama that happened on happy island: - I married my grandad (a really big age gap) - my nan and mario had 5 kids - my miis got into fights all the time it was hilarious - proposing scared the sh!t out of me - I made a song about my dad's farts (not lying) - the café gossip was elite - Judgment bay was the peak of politics in my opinion - QUIRKY QUESTIONS 🔛🔝 I ASKED THE MOST CURSED THINGS - the rap battles were so funny I can't wait for the switch version as ITS CONFIRMED!!

I genuinely love this game, in my island, bayonetta and slenderman are married

i still play this game in 2023-- its so timeless and you can have so much fun with it!! i really hope a switch version comes out with some upgrades.

i adore your video essay / commentary style - well rounded and just very very watchable! thanks for giving me something to enjoy when i log on to youtube :)

i have so many dearly beloved tomodachi memories. i still play it to this day, even if i've reset my island a few times. there's one couple on my current island that i have failed the proposal minigame for FOUR TIMES. it haunts me. my reaction time is so so bad. please

this game is somehow really good at making the funniest of situations happen

Each and every day I long in wait for the switch tomodachi 3 that lets us use the new Miitopia miis.

I still play this game basically semi daily, its so charming and I love it. It’ll always have a special place in my heart! Hearing you explain the game to people who don’t know it makes me feel kind of nostalgic for some reason lol

your essays on video games are so incredibly entertaining to watch!! c: Tomodachi Life is truly such a charming and fun lil game, I miss playing it...

Nintendo has to release a sequel to Tomodachi Life for Nintendo Switch

I actually gasped when Verge didn’t show up at the beach

I remember playing this game when I was much younger and getting really excited whenever I saw one of my Miis falling in love, since it was so rare. It would be the highlight of my day if I saw that pink icon on someone's room, and to hear that music which I don't even know how to describe with words. Also I remember saving up money for literal weeks just so I could afford the most expensive room for my lookalike Mii (I'm not egotistical... probably).

i had taken a crack at potentially making a "sequel" obviously without Nintendo's assets but its extremely hard to make something as charming as a mii or a animal crossing character without getting a lil to close to those. maybe ill have an enlightening moment and it'll come back to me one day.

i still have my nintendo 3ds and has tomodadhi life but for some reason the workers have wooden boxes for heads but in your video they have robot heads

I loved this game. After months of playing, thats where the drama started. I had Miis divorce, become a literal baby factory (they just kept having kids, ALL THE TIME. They had 7 until I literally stopped playing, got back? Wanted another one. It was just this one couple) Divorced then fell in love again. Broke up and got back together too, enemies, jealousy, this one Mii kept getting all the male Miis confess but either rejected or never showed up, you name it. It was AMAZING. It was a telanovela. I loved it.

fantastic video , i enjoyed your essay sm !! it's incredibly engaging ! tomodachi life needs a comeback badly , makes no sense why nintendo won't give us what we've been asking 4 😞

one thing im sad about is that while the nintendo switch DOES have touchscreen functionality, most games are optimized to work well while docked, meaning a lot of content would be gutted (drawing on a miis face, decision beach, etc) for the sake of being optimized for non-handheld gameplay if we do ever get a port, assuming the amount of touchscreen requiring content isnt seen as a barrier of entry for development in general

The myth bit with the song was the best demonstration of what makes this game great

i didnt realise this game was so popular and sold so well? Even more crazy now they havent put it on switch... Also I just unlocked a memory lol where I made my sister marry the ugly mii i made

Its been 5 years i got Tomodashi life and i still play it til nowdays, it got pretty repetitive but i love taking care of my villagers. I wish there was an DLC or an remake adding more minigames and real life events like christmas, new year etc, similar to Animal Crossing, it would be great!

When I was 9 my best friends cousin confessed his love to me by having his Mii sing a love song about me

In the card minigame you're supposed to look at the mii's facial expression when you hover over the card.

19:23 MAN. No but for real that's sad, I had the video in the background and I my jaw genuinely fell when it got to this part, that's sad

You are killing it with these videos!

I remember playing a long time ago, I had all the spotpass stuff, miis going off through streetpass, misty from pokemon married squidward, normal stuff like that. I love this game and I do hope it comes back like miitopia did.

youre completely right whenever i see those pink bubbles i start giggling and kicking my feet LMAO

Something i didnt expect to be made. Good job

Another stellar video!! So well made 🤯

Babe wake up new Dino Rex video

this sounds amazing, can’t believe i’d never heard of it

I mean, they dislike the prison cell, it actually decreases your happiness lol.

Absolutely love these videos and your humour and personality shining through!

This game should be given the Miitopia Treatment

I come back to this game like every 2 months it’s just so much fun

Plus, this game has educational value. Just look at all the things it's taught me over the years! 1. Salmon Meuniére isn't some weird spelling-of-words referring to fish poop 2. Gay relationships are completely unquestioned and work exactly like straight ones do, just as long as one person out of the couple involved is 'technically' coded to be the opposite gender 3. Never trust Mii QR code labels (see Saltydkdan's stream of the game when he was asking chat for new islanders) 4. If a food is 'Special' enough, you shouldn't feed it to the people you have control over, instead give it to someone else with the same game and console as you so they can say something funny about it (unless they stop playing it and you stop getting local connections, then just store it in your encyclopædia of Special Foods for all eternity) 5. The quote that will go down in history: "A change of scenery is always nice".

I just want a switch remake😭 with even more customization

Your channel is so underrated you seem to put so much effort into your videos O:

Oh i miss this game so much! My 3Ds had broken years ago and I bought the game directly in the store. I like to think all my miis are happy, well, and patiently waiting for my return :]

Love your channel!! Keep making videos; they’re so entertaining :)

i remember getting this a “graduating from 5th grade” present and i woke up at 1 am when it finished downloading that night to play it into 4 am

21:41 when you say you’re fine when really you’re not fine

"O'Leary, O'Reilly, O'hare and O'Hara There's no one as Irish as Barack O'Bama!"

i never owned the game but my friend did and whenever i went to her place we played it for hours and just created absolute chaos. I really hope they release it for the switch because i lost my ds a long time ago but really want to play that game again, seriously one of my favourite nintendo games ever

didnt have to go that hard in those last few seconds

Fun fact: Using accented letters and umlauts circumvents the swear filter, and depending on the word, they'll pronounce it as if the letter was normal. I used it a lot when I made songs or if I needed to make a Mii swear. I miss this game. I should charge my 2DS :v

Super enjoy your humor and editing is very pleasant! :]

I only recently started playing this game and a remaster of it on the switch or something would be so cool, but nintendo seems to not like miis anymore Awesome video by the way

I've seen so much videos about tomodachi life, and frankly, I'm tired of hearing about it! But your humor has made it sound so much more interesting again. :) Seriously - I'm surprised you only have 3k subs, you deserve more. Keep it up!!

Yeeey I've been waiting for a new video from you! And about Tomodachi Life no less, my day has been brightened!

FINALLY SOMEONE ACKNOWLEDGES TOMODACHI COLLECTION
