Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream on Switch Makes A Huge Splash After Its Announcement
Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream Announcement is Nintendo Japan's Most Liked Tweet
Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream's announcement on Twitter (X) has eclipsed even the hype surrounding the Switch 2, becoming Nintendo Japan's most liked tweet. Revealed during the Nintendo Direct on March 27, the announcement for Tomodachi Life garnered over 400,000 likes, surpassing the 385,000 likes for the Switch 2's reveal in January.
Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream is the latest installment in the beloved life-simulation series, where Nintendo’s digital avatars, known as Miis, inhabit and interact on an island. The series kicked off with Tomodachi Collection in 2009, exclusively released in Japan for the Nintendo DS, selling over 100,000 copies in its debut week. Its sequel, Tomodachi Collection: New Life, released on the 3DS in Japan in 2013, achieved global success with over 6.7 million copies sold, becoming one of the 3DS's top-selling titles. This game was later adapted for Western markets 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 of Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream has sparked enthusiastic discussions among fans, who have been dissecting the content for exciting new features. The trailer showcases Mii characters, familiar island settings, and dynamic Mii interactions, but one feature that has caught everyone's attention is the addition of ears to the Mii characters.
This change has led to a flurry of comments across social media platforms. On Twitter (X), one user expressed hope that this feature might also be included in the Switch 2's Mii character creation. On Reddit, discussions focused on the more human-like appearance of Miis and the potential for adding accessories such as earrings. Some fans, however, expressed a preference for the option to revert to the original earless design.
Despite these varied opinions, the buzz around Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream is undeniable. Set for release in 2026 on the Nintendo Switch, this game is already generating significant anticipation.
