Tomodachi Life in 2018 and Beyond

[smonikkims]

Any of you guys still play this game? I know it's old news by now and it was never really a MASSIVE craze although it did have its share of attention, but there's something about it that I really like for some reason and I've just started checking back in on my island again. I think it's because it's its own self-sustaining little world and there's no pressure to do anything at all and it progresses on its own, kind of makes it more like a toy than a game I guess, and I find it fun to just watch as I'm doing something else and let the game cycle through apartment windows on its own so I can look down and see everyone interacting and going about their lives.

I must admit I'd be incredibly excited to see another sequel on the Switch, although I don't know if that's likely to happen. I wonder if it might be a download-only title this time around if it were to go ahead.

It was nice, but I highly doubt it might even get a sequel not after what happened to Nintendo after they released it here in the west. Just play the Sims, it's a better game anyway..but nooooo
This was actually the second game, the first was Japan only.

I still play it a bit each day, although not much happens most of the time any more. Unless you're continually adding new Miis or something.

I would love to see a sequel on Switch, though. With the video capture ability of Switch, it would be easy for everyone to share the funny things that happen. I'd be inclined to write more funny songs for the concert hall if there was an easy way to share them like that. I hope it happens.

i still play it!! honestly i'm probably just being a bit optimistic here but i really hope there's a next title for the switch. it also had great vinesauce streams and it's a hilarious game in general, it helps me wind down a bit when i don't feel like playing animal crossing.
they did say they would include same-sex couples in "the next game" and i'm still holding out for a case like that, i just really hope it isn't japan only...

 

[Aquasplash]

I happen to just start playing it again. I deleted my save file and started a new one.

There was a time where I really enjoyed to play this game and where I spent lots of hours
in it. However, I lost interest when I start to play more New Leaf again. For me, it become
a game which you can play for half an hour a day or so, but that's it. It's also a while since
I play it.

Not sure if there is going to be a Switch version, if it looks ok, then I would maybe play
it, otherwise, I don't really need a new Tomodachi Life game right now, especially if there
is now a new Animal Crossing game on the way.

I've been meaning to start over fresh since I'm married to a real life ex in the game but I don't want to give up all the Nintendo Island items from the import shop I had a friend transfer over to me. Soooo I'm kinda waiting until I find other people with 3DS systems who play the game around these parts. And that's hard to come by as most of my fellow local Tomodachi Life players have left town.

I really liked the game at one point. I played every day and enjoyed watching my Miis fall in love and have babies together. But once I fully expanded my apartment building and collected most of the food and clothes it got boring.

 

[nintendofan85]

I haven't played in about a year. Just been too busy...

 

[lars708]

I don't play this game at all anymore but I liked it and I'd buy the game on Switch should it ever happen

Gave me some good laughs

 

[rhinoo]

Yeah it's funny. My mum and Darth Vader had a child.

 

[DarkDesertFox]

I put about 200 hours into it before I was done. I liked the idea of taking care of Miis and they live their own life and interact with the other Miis. The problem was it was supposed to be a silly, random game. Like Miis you wanted to stay together got divorced and others wouldn't even be friends with the ones you wanted them to be friends with. The events got really repetitive over time as well. 200 hours is a good amount of time I got out of it but I think I would have enjoyed it even more if it was a more serious type of Mii raising game.

 

[Mr_Persona]

I still play the game a lot kinda and I am wondering if they do have another Tomodachi Life game on the switch, because if they do i'll get the game for sure.

What on earth, like did your mom when on the dark side. 0_0

 

[AccfSally]

Honesty, if they're going to make a new one.. especially for the Switch.
They're going have to add a whole lot of things, because Switch games aren't cheap and some people felt rip off when they bought Tomodachi Life for the 3DS now just imagine how they'll feel when they buy one for the Switch.

Also, the Miis having babies were added into the 3DS (most likely to test out streetpass when you send them off), the miis didn't have babies in the original one.
So I wonder what they'll do with that if they even make another one.

Not to mention QR codes, I've made a ton of them pretty much and it would suck not to use them again.

 

[honeyaura]

I played around the time it was new, then stopped for a while. Then I came back, and other than myself I barely remembered anyone, so wanted to start over and still play today!

 

[Seastar]

I play it on random days. There's not much else happening, but I want to see how high I can get Mii levels to go. Occasionally there's also a weird Mii News report that I've never seen before, though I don't know how.

 

[Khaelis]

Honestly.. I bought it when it came out thinking I would enjoy it. I did like it, but I kinda got bored of it after a couple weeks. I still randomly play it though..

 

[Hyrule_Crossing]

Yeah it's funny. My mum and Darth Vader had a child.

Omg my mom and dantdm had like 6 kids

 

[Trent the Paladin]

Haven't played it since I last checked my StreetPass for it, which was probably a year or two ago. It was fun for a while, but the fact it was kinda boring after a month and I made some poor choices with it I'm not rushing to play it again. Don't think I would bother purchasing it if they ever made a Switch version either, more likely to purchase a new version of Miitopia than Tomodachi Life.

 

[Hyrule_Crossing]

I love the game still

And I guess Nintendo wants to bring it back to life as a minute ago I got a demo of it through spotpass. Which is odd cause I had the demo like when the game first came out. And got no demo through spotpass
