Gameplay[edit]
The cast consists entirely of Miis. Players can transfer Miis directly from their Wii console to their Nintendo DS or create new ones using the in-game Mii Maker. The player can choose the personalities of the Miis with up to 16 combinations of personalities. The player then helps their Miis with their problems, such as making friends and performing everyday tasks, as well as giving them clothes, food, and special items to help them gain experience. The Miis can interact with each-other in relationships such as friendships. When a Mii gains enough experience, they level up and collect rewards. New areas and shops are unlocked on the island by playing the game and meeting various conditions, such as the Question Hall, where you can ask your Miis anything as well as making them vote on a certain choice.
In Tomodachi Collection: New Life and the Korean version, the door to the backyard is solid glass while in Tomodachi Life, it is tiled glass. In Tomodachi Collection: New Life and the Korean version, when rocking a 1-day old baby, the live-action hands will be shown in a holding position. In Tomodachi Life, the hands are in a rocking position. The concert hall is a location in Tomodachi Life. In this location, Miiscan be made to sing songs,in a group or solo. When a Mii levels up, the player can give them a song as a level-up gift, which will unlock the song for them to sing. The player can also change the lyrics of the songs to anything they wish. In the American, European and Korean versions, there are 8 types of songs available. If only i could hit those notes.
Development[edit]
Because the Nintendo DS didn't have Miis in the first Nintendo DS Games (Miis were released on November 19, 2006 on the Wii), the Miis were be shown in various Wii games like Wii Play, Wii Sports, Wii Music and most other games. Miis first appeared on the DS two years later in 2008, in Personal Trainer: Walking, and this game was released in 2009, one year later, only in Japan on June 18, 2009. This game were released only in Japan, but the first was translated on November 9, 2013, in American English by jjjewel, a US English fan.[citation needed]
The game was developed by a small, young team at Nintendo SPD Group No.1 with Yoshio Sakamoto as a producer. According to an interview, it was originally titled Otona no Onna no Uranai Techou (大人のオンナの占い手帳, lit.'Fortune-telling Notebook for Adult Women') and only featured female characters. A western release was considered, according to an interview with Gamekult.fr, however, issues with localizing the vocal synthesizer software to handle English words (which were resolved in Tomodachi Life) caused the release to be cancelled. However, a ROM created in 2013 by jjjewel exists, which translates the game's text into English but retains the original Japanese voices. Other unfinished changes include the fact that some of Mii News is still in Japanese (like the logo in the top screen while there is news) and other small parts in-game. The Songs' default lyrics are partly in Japanese and partly in English.
There is a function only found in the Japanese version of Tomodachi Life that allows you to call the Mii from the Tomodachi Collection, and you can copy and transfer the Miis onto the 3DS, but the newly created Miis are added in the Mii Studio. It is not possible to send the Mii to the Tomodachi Collection from Mii Maker.

13 Trivia
In the International versions of the game, this was changed so that the effect becomes permanent when used. Because of this, the Kid-o-matic item was created exclusively for the international versions as a way to reverse the effects of the Age-o-matic. (and allowing adult Miis to become children)
Tomodachi Life Enka Lyrics
The North American version of the game replaces this event with one called 'Rap Battle', in which two Miis try to insult each other in rhymes until one of them cannot come up with a rhyme.
The European versions not only contain the 'Rap Battle' event, but also an English version of the 'Shiritori' event called ' Word Chain', where instead of coming up with words that begins with the final kana of the previous word, two Miis have to come up with words that begin with the letter that the previous word ended with.
Tomodachi Life Concert Hall Enka
Gay marriages are able to be performed in Tomodachi Life due to the ability to create Miis that have the appearance of Miis of the opposite gender. While many have complained of the inability to have same gender relationships in Tomodachi Life, Nintendo has refrained from including the feature, explaining that the game is not to be looked at as though it is a 'simulation' of real life.
