the tomodachi life direct was like the embodiment of that era of nintendo and their marketing, i loved all of that goofy stuff and although i like the success of the switch, i feel as if there's a bit of that personality lost in its marketing
@@ItsJustJuffie particularly the Mii related stuff, that always had so much heart and personality but they hardly do that anymore. I hope they do a lil in the future at least
I actually watched a bunch of them specifically to make sure I didn't give facts that have been discussed a lot before, what's the point of saying nothing new, right?
About the European description for the hot dog and the mustard thing: i can't neccessarily speak for all of europe, but here in germany, you can buy mustard with different levels of spice reaching from mild to various levels of spicy. Seeing as mustard is usually on the spicier side, the description was trying to say that the hit dog gets spicier (hotter) if you put more mustard on it. That's it It is just word play. I realized it while writing the comment.
Watched many tomodachi life iceburgs and "things you may not have known" types of videos and this still showed me stuff that i had no clue about! I really liked this
Most iceberg videos just go into a reddit post and talk about some really common stuff in the second to last level X3 Seriously the familiar dream is so infamous I'm surprised to see people still learning about it...
On the topic of audio quirks, here's an intresting one I found of myself. I'm not sure if it works in the European versions but I know it works in the US version because it's the one I have: If you make a mii say the character "æ" or repeats of the letter like "ææææææææææ", it makes some weird results. It only works with the lowercase version and you can't add other letters to it or it won't work, for example: "ææææehf" won't make the weird noise. Singing it doesn't work either. "ç ç ç ç ç ç ç" also makes some interesting results.
It works too, at least with some letters! In the spanish version I have, many of my miis say "rrrrrrrrrrrrrrr" or "jsheywiyfhsjhfh" or any other random letter combination because when what you write is not an actual word, they pronounce every letter by its name, kind of like in animal crossing 😂😂 For the "rrrrrrrrrrr" they say "ererererererererre" and even for symbols it works too, some of them randomly say "plus" when I put "+" However I haven't tried with the "ç", it's a commonly used letter in my language Catalan but the game is in Spanish so now I'm curious how it's gonna say it lol
22:29 I'm german, so I can (somewhat) explain why there are elipsis! "Erzähl mir mal..." translates into "tell me..." or "how about you tell me..." which wouldn't as well with an exclamation mark, as it's like the first part of a sentence. Of course I don't know it exactly, but that's what my brain made sense of the title. Like "Tell me... who has no interest in Skibidi toilet?"
8:45 About the wooden spatula, this is actually called shamoji, and is a type of wooden spoon used specifically to serve rice. It was probably changed because of its lack of cultural significance in the West
I remember having my minor vriska from homestuck sell ruined meals at the morning Market. I brought a bunch and gave one to a mii who was trying to ask someone out and the proposal worked, somehow
LMAO, it's so funny because it just implies whoever is at the morning market is the worst at cooking and messed up everything but said "screw it, we try anyways"
19:28 Why did you have to remind me of that message… My first island DIED from that! Granted its name was lame (it was just called Tomodachi Island and before the rename it was random letters) but I had that island until 2021! It still hurts! And it happened a second time on a second island I totally forgot the name of because the data got corrupted for that one quickly! And a year ago my Tomodachi Collection island got corrupted and I never played Collection since! I’m cursed to have data for a 3DS game I’m too attached to get corrupted (some times).
Fun fact: If you return to the home menu instead of hitting OK, the save will still be intact and not deleted. This means one can just back it up with something like Checkpoint in case the problem comes from something else, like save editing gone wrong or using certain modded files (like restoring region-locked clothing in other releases)
18:52 Little fun fact about this: If two Miis of the same gender live in the same house, the house loads on emulators, but will consistently crash on actual hardware (at least on Old 3DS models, not sure on New 3DS) upon selecting it. And not in the elegant "The software had an error" way that boots you to the Home menu, it gives you a crash report and then restarts your console. So... it's not really that stable on an actual 3DS, sadly
Me too. I hope we get more features like a proper family tree system, disabling romance entirely for certain Miis (aromanticism as a feature), and maybe take a page out of Miitomo in terms of clothing customization options.
I have been playing this game for seven years and only just found out that if a mii gets rejected there's a chance that an event will be held at the cafe where the mii's friends will try and cheer them up
That's actually SUPER common. The relationship event you probably haven't seen is the one where 2 miis in a relationship aren't getting along, so they can go to the beach and return to being friends but ONLY if you enter the beach while they are there and the event triggers.
@@OmegaKatana Most of the space in games is typically occupied by 3D models and their textures, since the 3DS texture size is on average 128x128, most models are pretty light. A 4k texture like most AAA games use is 100 times heavier. 11Kb turn into 11mb
31:45 "You can physically wave at babies during the peek-a-boo minigame in real life." is in the CCs but doesn't seem to appear in the video itself (unless I'm misremembering). I haven't been able to confirm camera-related reactions myself, but it does correlate with the otherwise barely-noticeable camera functionality in the baby minigames (more evident on emulators, as the game will even softlock at such points if it cannot detect a working camera). Also, on the topic of save editing same-sex married couples into the game, I attempted such a thing once only for said couples' home to become inaccessible on the Mii Homes menu, despite said home still technically existing (the only way I could access them is through the two children they had). Granted, it was with a wlw couple rather than an mlm couple, so I'm unsure if this is a unique problem to them. As for the "same-sex couple bug" claims, however, I don't think there's much evidence supporting it beyond a few supposed screenshots of the JP release where IIRC it's more likely they just set one of the Miis to the opposite sex. As it stands, one still needs to save edit them in.
22:22 I think that's just referring to how mustard is actually kind of hot (in a literal sense) if you eat a lot of it at once it can very much cause you to sweat and feel hot-ish! So, the description is nothing nefarious I do not think!
8:57 The Japanese ROB is a different color because in Japan, ROB was based around the Famicom instead of the NES. Famicoms were offwhite and red, and NES's were black, white, and grey. This regional change is present in pretty much every time ROB has appeared in a video game, including Mario Kart DS and Super Smash Brothers Ultimate (both versions are in both regions, but in Japan the Famicom version is the default skin, and elsewhere, the NES version is the default.)
@@serenitywingss yes! However, the reason they didn't replace it with a US rob in a box is because that'd make the silhuete mini game harder. They also sometimes removed plates from food items for that reason
some other cool stuff: you can make a song unsingable by making every line start with 7 and then repeat w until you reach the character limit in the tomodachi life audio files, there are weird files of someone speaking what i can only guess is spanish? it's really weird
Loved this video so much!! I really love Tomadachi Life, and was geniunely surprised by all the obscure and unknown stuff put in here! There's really a lot I could say about all the stuff I aprpiciate in this video, but I just really really wanna emphasize thank you for taking the time to put in captions!!!!

Before, the community could do it, but they removed that functionality a few years back, so now I manually do it. I know they aren't perfect hehehe, very glad you enjoyed the vid :3
I’ve also noticed that the cafe radio when hangouts happen play tomodachi collection music without lyrics. The original songs could be played with the miis singing japanese or terrible english, AND it sounds robotic, so I think that’s why they removed the lyrics in the west, which is a pretty neat detail.

@@SmashedTomatoes it’s theorized that Murdoc wrote plastic beach as like an apology album or just very emotionally driven. But yeah pretty sure he wrote like all of plastic beach. The only albums he has no part in are now now and the fall, but I think newer albums both him and 2d write the songs
@@stinky9713 @SmashedTomatoes I said singing not writing d: , there is like no (canon?) song where he sings but if there was I'm pretty it'd be about his own interests wich might have improved over the years but he still gives me the yikes so I avoid
18:20 I'm pretty sure miis actually have a chance to make the panda suit when given a sewing machine, meaning you don't actually have to play the demo version beforehand!
Amazing video!, i forgot how great this game was and the many hours i spent on it with my bf when we were kids, i love your energy!, earned a subscriber.
Ehehehe, I'm glad you liked it! Yes, the game is super fun, so many people think it's boring because they stopped playing after like 40 hours because they stop seeing anything new without even realizing they've played it for that long, it's weird!
@@SmashedTomatoes i feel like some people stop because they don't realize that just because you stop seeing "new things" doesn't mean there's nothing more to the game, you also need to get a lil creative!
25:57 Correction: That's likely Windows 98, not 7, due to the barebones desktop background, grey taskbar and the gradient on the open window in the front, which distinguishes it from 95.
@@hanah4k1 thought so too, but the UI is very clearly not 98. Seems more like they just scrounged up a background asset and put some windows screenshots on top X3
22:22 it's because of Dijon Mustard, a French town known for it's rather strong mustard. Even when mixed in as a mayonnaise recipe, it still have a kick.
Apparently spamming the home button while a Mii is singing messes up their animations, especially in the Musical group performance. It's also possible for the Miis to continue moving when you press "Make it stop."
31:41 using ᵃh actually breaks the concert even worse, even glitching the voices for the miis. performing the glitch correctly breaks your mii's mouths, and you shouldn't save, as it could break the game. putting more ᵃ's or h's can cause more damage. for me, i use ᵃh, o, then a normal line. the max amount of ᵃh and o i was able to do was 3 before the game crashed.
7:03 If I'm not wrong (sorry if I misheard), you said the background with the airballoons for the puzzle game was unused but I'm 100% sure I saw it, I have the french version of the game so that's maybe why
i think that when it said "hotter when you use a lot of mustard" it meant more along the lines of spice level, since some people could consider mustard kinda spicy (especially if its specifically spicy mustard)
@@SmashedTomatoes some people just have very low spice tolerance lol (for the record i also dont think most mustards are spicy, but i do know some people do consider it spicy ^^)
Imagine if your at a local concert and a giant floating koala with a flying microphone falls from the ceiling and starts singing about what it’s like being dead.
Well, I'm pretty sure the miis can't pronounce it much better due to sample limitations LOL. But more messed up is that I'm unusure if I'm actually pronouncing it horribly and this is an ironic comment.
Fun Fact! The Rap song's instrumentals from Tomodachi Collection are reused in (I assume) all versions of Tomodachi Life for the Cafe. It can be heard in the background from a Radio
@@thokk9987 in the Japanese release, the lyrics of all the OG Collection songs are still intact (as opposed to just being instrumental in all other regions)
tomodachi life was a simply amazing game with legit infinite possibilities, and i actually dont know a lot of stuff told in this video so, thanks for that. btw im glad to see saltydkdan (who got me into TL 5 years ago after i hadnt played it for 2 years) and poofesure grt mentioned
Holy shit i played this game for my entire life and didn't know any of these, i can't believe it... this is TRULY the MOST USELESS VIDEO ON THIS PLATFORM, YOU DID IT, CONGRATULATIONS!👏👏👏👏
THIS VIDEO IS SO FUNNNNN!!!!!! IBUKI APPROVED!!! Also is it just me who thinks that TC’s island day theme could be a gamecube animal crossing hourly track??
Big Animal Crossing fan here, 100% it wouldn't fit! GCN animal crossing's soundtrack is often not as melodic, with a more laid back attitude. Glad you found my video hihihihihi
15:01 I've actually had a mii like a trash food, so it CAN happen! At least, I know that they can like moldy bread. One time, one of my miis asked for something with bread, so as a joke, I gave her moldy bread. She loved it, but it didn't get on her favourites list, so I have no way of proving it. I'll try to recreate this if I get moldy bread again.
I feel like something that would be cool in a tomodachi life game would having an item characters can eat and sell. but not a food item, just a regular item like a jump rope or something you can win in games that you can also eat. Im sure it would confuse a lot of people.
@@SmashedTomatoes trash foods are impossible to be in the all-time favorites, but pseudo trash foods (the foods that have a high probability of Miis not liking them) can
Never seen a video of you (as one might expect, got this randomy recommended) but gods, I love the way you edit and your humor throughout it video. It's very endearing. (And as many others have already said, it might be useless facts but I haven't even known of most of them so that's really cool as well :o) Your little bunny avatar is cute too. Anyway, too much rambling, imma subscribe xD (Btw random question out of curiosity, where are you from? Your slight accent, if it is one, just makes me wonder o^o)
i once got the corrupt and will now be deleted message. it scared little me so bad that i was afraid to play it for a few days. i was absolutely heartbroken. also before booting up the save on that day the logo that's supposed to spin on the 3ds' top screen did not move at all, so now i just check to see if that's working before booting the game up to prevent that from happening again... though it has worked every single time since
Oh, interesting, I've never really seen that solution around, but it would make sense if some mii's action didn't have enough bytes and offseted the save but playing later made the game discard that action enitrely and come up with a new one that isn't broken.... Hmmm
I've tried dijon mustard, and even then I don't find it spicy. I guess that's the intention but the mustard kink is funnier as a concept than the mustard being actually spicy
@SmashedTomatoes i forgot what the term was and i thought I heard trash food in the video, so I called it that instead of going back into the video. Sorry, and thank you for correcting me. Also i got one of them from the mystery bag.
@@Jorpda it's actually also in other proposals. But I noticed right away while getting footage for this video, so I figured it doesn't take much to know it! Still a cool detail hehehe
@@SmashedTomatoes no? The firework and amusement park proposals don’t have anyone else in the background and the miis in the train station are seemingly random
As for why all versions of the game have a different translation, I assume it's because Nintendo games have their translations done by different teams based on region, even for the same language such as American and British English
My question there isn't why it's translated to multiple language variants, that's common. What I wonder is why they changed so many of the actual items of the game, usually translations just rename stuff, but tomodachi removes internationally known elements to make them more personal to the region for which the translation was made
18:43 i used a save editor to do this and all was well until the two miis married, and i’m quite (happily) surprised to see this actually working! whenever i’d open the houses my ds would crash! how did you get this to work? i wonder if it’s a difference in the PAL and NSTC versions that caused my game to freak out
My big theory on why this hasn't got a remake yet is because of how hard coded it was to not allow same sex relationships. Like modders tried and it broke the game quite abit. So my theory is that they'd have to completely rework the code to add that and they know that is a big feature people want.
I literally show in this video that it doesn't break that bad with guys, tho there are more issues with same sex girls. Modders didn't really try anything because they can't access the code at all, but I suspect Nintendo would easily be able to do it. More likely that nintendo is aware of the game's main issue, the "repetitiveness", and thus felt that fans of the original game wouldn't have enough reason to buy a remake, a sequel is much more likely than some people want you to believe.
@@SmashedTomatoes I agree-- Tomodachi Collection did well enough to get a sequel, and Life did WAY better than Collection. In the top 10 most sold 3DS games, I believe. Plus, there was two spinoffs in the form of Miitomo and Miitopia, one of which also got a switch remaster. I think the reason there was a port and not a straight up "Miitopia 2" was because it was a smaller spinoff and had less priority. But surely a bestselling, mainline title like Tomodachi Life is enough for a sequel, right? Maybe a Switch 2 launch title? idk

Did murdoc canonically write plastic beach? I'm pretty sure that murdoc writes about himself mostly, even to the current in-universe time.
@@SmashedTomatoes it’s theorized that Murdoc wrote plastic beach as like an apology album or just very emotionally driven. But yeah pretty sure he wrote like all of plastic beach. The only albums he has no part in are now now and the fall, but I think newer albums both him and 2d write the songs
@@stinky9713 @SmashedTomatoes I said singing not writing d: , there is like no (canon?) song where he sings but if there was I'm pretty it'd be about his own interests wich might have improved over the years but he still gives me the yikes so I avoid
On the amazon page for Tomodachi Life, I’m pretty sure there’s an image of miis sitting in a scrapped room.
Looks like it right? It's actually the Polka dot interior with different texture work!
@@SmashedTomatoes Oh, thanks for clarification lol.
Great video! A Spooky's Jumpscare Mansion reference was not what I was expecting to hear, but I'm very happy that I did!
nice, you caught it! I wish I had custom skintones in tomodachi, it would help a lot...
18:20 I'm pretty sure miis actually have a chance to make the panda suit when given a sewing machine, meaning you don't actually have to play the demo version beforehand!
Oh? That'd be expected, so maybe!
Who said it’s useless? I love it!!!
You can love useless stuff, I have a cup I really like but I never use it cuz it fits none of my coffee
Amazing video!, i forgot how great this game was and the many hours i spent on it with my bf when we were kids, i love your energy!, earned a subscriber.
Ehehehe, I'm glad you liked it! Yes, the game is super fun, so many people think it's boring because they stopped playing after like 40 hours because they stop seeing anything new without even realizing they've played it for that long, it's weird!
@@SmashedTomatoes i feel like some people stop because they don't realize that just because you stop seeing "new things" doesn't mean there's nothing more to the game, you also need to get a lil creative!
21:21 "Ambitious" seems to be for outgoings + confidents. I have 10 entertainers and 10 adventurers, so i guess that adds up.
25:57 Correction: That's likely Windows 98, not 7, due to the barebones desktop background, grey taskbar and the gradient on the open window in the front, which distinguishes it from 95.
@@hanah4k1 thought so too, but the UI is very clearly not 98. Seems more like they just scrounged up a background asset and put some windows screenshots on top X3

24:33 wow flatwoods monster appearance!!! I love her!!
I kinda like the creature more when they color her green and red, gives it a lot of personality that doesn't stand out on gray.
22:22 it's because of Dijon Mustard, a French town known for it's rather strong mustard.
Even when mixed in as a mayonnaise recipe, it still have a kick.
I've had dijon mustard and didn't even find it spicy? I guess spicy like pepper spicy is the most I'd taste X3
Apparently spamming the home button while a Mii is singing messes up their animations, especially in the Musical group performance.
It's also possible for the Miis to continue moving when you press "Make it stop."
@@Marksboro yeah, the make it stop button has several bugs!
sloppily kissing Tomodachi Life in the first five seconds. I have never liked a video this fast before
You kiss the tomodachi
the tomodachi doesn't kiss back
Sad
31:41
using ᵃh actually breaks the concert even worse, even glitching the voices for the miis. performing the glitch correctly breaks your mii's mouths, and you shouldn't save, as it could break the game. putting more ᵃ's or h's can cause more damage. for me, i use ᵃh, o, then a normal line. the max amount of ᵃh and o i was able to do was 3 before the game crashed.
Wow, that's even worse hehehe.
7:03 If I'm not wrong (sorry if I misheard), you said the background with the airballoons for the puzzle game was unused but I'm 100% sure I saw it, I have the french version of the game so that's maybe why
Hehehe, you misunderstood, I was talking about the dummy happy/sad face texture in the files for that puzzle.

@@Deadmau5Awesome no problem! That's what I'm around for!
i think that when it said "hotter when you use a lot of mustard" it meant more along the lines of spice level, since some people could consider mustard kinda spicy (especially if its specifically spicy mustard)
@@ivysfine I've never had spicy mustard unless it's like pepper spicy
@@SmashedTomatoes some people just have very low spice tolerance lol (for the record i also dont think most mustards are spicy, but i do know some people do consider it spicy ^^)

Thank you for pronouncing the ß more accurately than the miis did 😂😂😂😂
Well, I'm pretty sure the miis can't pronounce it much better due to sample limitations LOL.
But more messed up is that I'm unusure if I'm actually pronouncing it horribly and this is an ironic comment.
This was such a nice watch and gave me some inspiration that I could use for my game. Thanks!

Im glad you replied tho
15:01 I've actually had a mii like a trash food, so it CAN happen! At least, I know that they can like moldy bread. One time, one of my miis asked for something with bread, so as a joke, I gave her moldy bread.
She loved it, but it didn't get on her favourites list, so I have no way of proving it. I'll try to recreate this if I get moldy bread again.
@@vivimim1 they can love it, it just can't be their best/ all time favorite
@@SmashedTomatoes I misunderstood, mb shejhdjs
I feel like something that would be cool in a tomodachi life game would having an item characters can eat and sell. but not a food item, just a regular item like a jump rope or something you can win in games that you can also eat. Im sure it would confuse a lot of people.
lmao, that'd be unique, but it probably wouldn't work unless many items where like that.
I have a Mii named Joe that I made to be one of the most average, kind of bland Miis I have.
Turns out he likes spoiled milk.
Ugh, total joe thing.
Nice tomovideo 😱
Weird way of saying it but thanks!

@@InfectXML yeah! I'm not sure if it's rarer than any particular food item, but it may be!
@@SmashedTomatoes trash foods are impossible to be in the all-time favorites, but pseudo trash foods (the foods that have a high probability of Miis not liking them) can
@@InfectXML yup, but I'm not sure if the game picks 1 of the ones that can, or if the probability is actually lower because of that pseudotrash status

i did not expect to see a jojo reference in this video. i applaud you.
jojo's is one of my favorite anime, tho I guess most people online aren't to day on the manga
21:25 I humbly suggest IKEA for Swedish meatballs. Europe refers to the entire area of Europe, so Swedish meatballs could work
27:22 I think those are drunk candy apples
I've never had IKEA swedish meatballs but they sound mythical to me.
i once got the corrupt and will now be deleted message. it scared little me so bad that i was afraid to play it for a few days. i was absolutely heartbroken.
also before booting up the save on that day the logo that's supposed to spin on the 3ds' top screen did not move at all, so now i just check to see if that's working before booting the game up to prevent that from happening again... though it has worked every single time since
Oh, interesting, I've never really seen that solution around, but it would make sense if some mii's action didn't have enough bytes and offseted the save but playing later made the game discard that action enitrely and come up with a new one that isn't broken.... Hmmm

I didn’t know that “Americas test cooking” was once a Japanese cooking game! Or did it just have functions from it? 1:48
Started in japan, came to the west due to it's popularity, but the text to speech functions are removed.
Wait actually “personal trainer cooking” “Americans test kitchen” had the same functionalities as the original Japanese one even with tts 😅
I know because I own both copies but I lost the “personal trainer cooking” one!
22:21 I think that’s actually referring to hot mustard, as in spicy, so no mustard kinks intended
I've tried dijon mustard, and even then I don't find it spicy. I guess that's the intention but the mustard kink is funnier as a concept than the mustard being actually spicy
@@SmashedTomatoes honestly that’s entirely fair, it is a lot funnier to think of it that way
10:17 I have this Mario Mii!
Standard mario?!
I don't have him, I just didn't get footage of the announcement in my US save, so I poached it from online.
Youre telling me red peppers are trash food? Matt from wii sports was selling them so i bought 99!
They are not trashfood, simply adjacent. Real people tend to not like em, and so miis are more likely to not like it.
@SmashedTomatoes i forgot what the term was and i thought I heard trash food in the video, so I called it that instead of going back into the video. Sorry, and thank you for correcting me. Also i got one of them from the mystery bag.

As for why all versions of the game have a different translation, I assume it's because Nintendo games have their translations done by different teams based on region, even for the same language such as American and British English
My question there isn't why it's translated to multiple language variants, that's common. What I wonder is why they changed so many of the actual items of the game, usually translations just rename stuff, but tomodachi removes internationally known elements to make them more personal to the region for which the translation was made
“here is 30 minutes if useless info about tomodachi life that is going to be less entertaining than most of my content” *video goes viral*
I mean, this isn't viral at all! Viral is getting to 500K or more, which...
Imma just keep dreaming D:
18:43 i used a save editor to do this and all was well until the two miis married, and i’m quite (happily) surprised to see this actually working! whenever i’d open the houses my ds would crash! how did you get this to work? i wonder if it’s a difference in the PAL and NSTC versions that caused my game to freak out
May be because the emulator has fallbacks that the real 3DS can't use, huh...

My big theory on why this hasn't got a remake yet is because of how hard coded it was to not allow same sex relationships. Like modders tried and it broke the game quite abit. So my theory is that they'd have to completely rework the code to add that and they know that is a big feature people want.
I literally show in this video that it doesn't break that bad with guys, tho there are more issues with same sex girls. Modders didn't really try anything because they can't access the code at all, but I suspect Nintendo would easily be able to do it.
More likely that nintendo is aware of the game's main issue, the "repetitiveness", and thus felt that fans of the original game wouldn't have enough reason to buy a remake, a sequel is much more likely than some people want you to believe.
@@SmashedTomatoes I agree-- Tomodachi Collection did well enough to get a sequel, and Life did WAY better than Collection. In the top 10 most sold 3DS games, I believe.
Plus, there was two spinoffs in the form of Miitomo and Miitopia, one of which also got a switch remaster.
I think the reason there was a port and not a straight up "Miitopia 2" was because it was a smaller spinoff and had less priority. But surely a bestselling, mainline title like Tomodachi Life is enough for a sequel, right?
Maybe a Switch 2 launch title? idk
23:00 that's my exact birthday!!
