Tomodachi Life for Nintendo 3DS●
As you may be able to tell, I am a bit of a Nintendo nerd
When I was 18 I worked in a GameStation store and I was the go-to employee for all things Nintendo!
So when Nintendo UK approached me to review the upcoming game Tomodachi Life
Well, it was a total "Senpai noticed me" moment!
Tomodachi Life is a Life Simulation game for the 3DS console
It was originally released in Japan last year under the name Tomodachi Collection
and was a HUGE success within it's first week
Western audiences started to learn about this wacky game and thankfully Nintendo took notice
and began to port the game into English so we can enjoy the fun too!
I was curious as to how it's wacky Japanese characteristics would be translated into an English version
and I was a little worried they may be toned down for the new market...

But thankfully that doesn't seem to be the case! All hail the Virtual Boy!
So, on to the game itself!
Nintendo sent me a code to download a digital copy of the the game
(for those that need to know, the digital copy uses 3,391 blocks)

You start with your blank Island which you can name, I decided to call mine Dream★Land
Then you use your Mii Characters to move yourself, your family and even your friends on to the island!
You can hang out with your favourite movie characters or even date your crush hehe...

Each Mii is customisable in many new ways
You give them a detailed profile, a specific voice and choose how they interact
Wait.. their voice? Yes!
In Tomodachi Life your Mii's will actually talk to you
You can play with the scales to either match your own vocal traits
Or you can even give them a humorous robot voice!

The choices you make will influence your Mii's personality
Above is my Mii "★Spoon" and a description of her personality within the game
I think this is a fairly good representation of myself hehe
And now your Mii is all ready to move in to their new apartment and begin their new Tomodachi Life!
What happens next?
Your Mii's live out their life on your Island with your help
You can feed them, dress them and help them fall in love
The more Mii's you add to your game, the more strange things can happen...
