Announced during the Nintendo Direct on March 27, this life-simulation game continues the beloved series that started with Tomodachi Collection on the Nintendo DS in 2009, which sold over 100,000 copies in its first week in Japan. The sequel, Tomodachi Collection: New Life, launched on the 3DS in Japan in 2013 and sold over 6.7 million copies, becoming one of the best-selling games for the 3DS. It was later released in the West as Tomodachi Life in 2014.
Nintendo describes Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream as a game where players can "Create your own Mii characters based on yourself, friends, family – anyone! – and watch them live their lives on an island out at sea. Get involved with their relationships and experience all the weird and wonderful ways these Mii characters interact. You may even drop in on their dreams!"
Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream Adds Ears To Mii Characters
The reveal trailer for Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream has sparked extensive discussion among fans, who are eagerly dissecting every detail. The trailer showcases Mii characters, classic island locations, and various interactions, but the addition of ears to Mii characters has particularly captured fans' attention.
This change has sparked a flurry of comments across social media platforms. On Twitter (X), users expressed hopes that this feature might extend to the Switch 2's Mii character creation. On Reddit, discussions focused on how the addition of ears makes Miis look more human, with some suggesting the possibility of adding accessories like earrings.
