Got Tomodachi Life yesterday, and it's quite the bizarre, quirky little game. I'm loving it so far. It's kinda like a cross between Animal Crossing and The Sims, and yet somehow it is its own weird thing. Very hard to describe. Your Mii is basically the star of the game, and you go about your day on an island doing different stuff like going to the beach, buying clothes, performing songs, making friends (or enemies) and more. Just for my own amusement (because I'm pretty sure no one else here is going to be interested) I'm going to keep a visual diary of sorts as I play through this thing. It's got a nifty little camera function that allows you to take screenshots of what's happening on either the upper screen or the lower screen on your 3DS, so why not! Here goes... That'd be the title right there. Yup. Home sweet home. I call it Windfall Island because I lack imagination. Guh. Let's meet the cast. This is Ernest Crumb, star of a world famous, mega hit webcomic. Hitler's not dead. Not really. He's alive and well, living next door to Ernest. Otherwise known as Kiki, Kirsty is the token estrogen hoarder who's here to keep the boys in line. Saddam's such an angry old man. Will the others be able to unlock his soft side? Michael is a nice guy who's just a little bit lonely. Poor guy. Seriously, someone give him an ice cream cone. Okay, that's it for now. More to come soon...

Whoa. Those are some interesting characters! How many characters can you have? Because I like raoh's idea!

I'm not sure yet but those are two damn good suggestions. I'll see what I can do...

Seems like an interesting game. Not sure if I'd enjoy it or not. Although I've never played Animal Crossing, but I have liked the Sims from time to time.

It's not something I can wholeheartedly and unreservedly recommend to others to be honest with you. I love it, but that doesn't necessarily mean everyone else would.

It is indeed. It was released about... a week ago? Well, it hasn't been out long anyway.

I was thinking about getting it and recreating the cast of Twin Peaks, Dragon Ball Z, and US Presidents.

Recreating people and characters is the main reason I've ever wanted to play The Sims. The only reason I'm not playing Tomodachi Life is because I don't have a 3DS.
