Tomodachi Life Metacritic List
Why It Rocks
- The game lets you make Miis and make them live in an apartment in a hotel on an island. The idea of it seems interesting. You can also feed your Mii, dress them, give them interiors, and even dye the Mii's hair. It's more of a simpler version of The Sims.
- Spawned Jeff's Tomodachi Life Blog.
- The graphics are good, even by 3DS standards.
- It also can have relationships such as friendship (or best friend), sweethearts, and even better, marraige.
- Speaking of marraige, the married couple can have a baby and grow up to be either a resident or a StreetPass traveler.
- You can even watch your Mii's dreams, which is pretty funny.
- For the first time ever, your Miis get to speak in full English and other languages.
- You can give your Miis gifts such as a Wii U or a punching bag. You can either give them a song, interior, or a catchphrase.
- You can even make your own lyrics for your Mii, so your Mii will actualy sing the lyrics.
- Great soundtrack.
- When you feed your Mii, they have a food reaction. They go from blasting to outer space from melting in a puddle.
- The dreams the Miis have are very funny.
- If it's your birthday, the Miis will send you to one of the apartments and give you a birthday cake. If it's another Mii's birthday, it'll be on the news rather than a generic everyday news report.
- Fun events and minigames like Morning Market, Magic Show, Tomodachi Quest, Word Chain (EU version only), Rap Battle, Judgement Bay, Quirky Questions, etc.
Bad Qualities
- Some glitches. (Example: When a Mii is yanking something fast on a normal fight, the hand can go off the item for a couple of frames for several times. You wouldn’t know that without taking pictures.)
- Fighting. Almost every day, Miis get into fights, while sometimes they forgive each other the first time, they will not be over it, leading the Mii who apologized to become depressed. This can get extremely annoying. However, the Mii will forgive him/her later on sometimes. It's worsened that they can also get into a huge fight, causing 2 Miis to be on fire. Sometimes, if you are unlucky, when the Mii will try to get the 2 flaming Miis to calm down, it doesn't work and they will continue to throw things and each other and break up and not forgive each other ever again.
- Curing a Mii's depression (especially when their bar is full) is annoying and very difficult. Fortunately, if you have a travel ticket, you can give it to them and when they come back, their depression is fully cured.
- Taking care of the baby is also annoying and very difficult as they constantly cry.
- The Miis don't pronounce some words correctly (Examples: 'Echidna' is pronounced 'E-chid-na' instead of 'E-kid-na', and 'Memes' is pronounced 'mehms' instead of 'meems'.).
- Someone the Miis' gift reactions don't mix (Examples: Giving a Mario Mii spaghetti and not liking it or giving a chef-related Mii a chef uniform and heavily disliking it.).
- Extremely difficult to get SpotPass and StreetPass items nowadays.
- The animation in the Miis’ movements are kind of terrible and stiff at times.
- Can only hold up to 100 Miis.
- Just like Miitopia, it can only have one save profile. If you wanna create a new profile, you have to delete the current profile.
- There are only 7 food slots, so sometimes, or most of the time, when you feed your Mii more than 3 items that they like, (excluding the Super All-Time Fav / All-Time Fav bar) or when they don’t like it that much-don’t like it at all, it’s hard to tell what type of food your Mii likes since there is no Disliked Foods bar.
