Tomodachi Life

[Hakudamashi]

I dun even...what?

[Elija2]

[Hakudamashi]

If this was some free app for the 3DS and Wii U as Nintendo's answer to Playstation Home, I'd be down for it, but eh.

Also, I like how they portray Iwata as this little shit noone likes.

[Elija2]

Yeah, from what I know about the gameplay it doesn't seem like you have a lot of control over the characters. I think it's mainly about watching what wacky shit they get into. That's fine, but it's not something I'd pay $35 for.

[Hakudamashi]

And personally, I wouldn't really want a physical copy of this.
I'd rather have it be an installed app that I can just check up on every now and then... like playstation home... or Miiverse.

[jkid101094]

I want this so much, though I kind of agree with Wind. Maybe I'll get it off the Eshop instead of from Toys R Us or Gamestop.

[Elija2]

Man, those voices sound really bad compared to the text-to-speech that most computers and phones have these days.

It still doesn't really seem like my kind of game. I wish it were a more interactive game.

[jkid101094]

I'm playing a translated patch of the first game. It's actually really fun. My only concern is the fact that you need a bunch of Miis to do much of anything in the opening few hours.

Well duh. I'm assuming Tomodachi Life will be like that too, but luckily it will be easier to add Miis into the game with QR codes.

[jkid101094]

I know. I've already prepped my 3DS. I'm thinking about asking my dad to lend me $40.

Can't do this shit in Animal Crossing.

[Elija2]

So apparently Nintendo sent out special demo codes for Tomodachi Life to a few Club Nintendo members who have reached Platinum this year. If only I had bothered to register enough coins to get Platinum.

[jkid101094]

NOOOOOOO WHY
I WANT A DEMO SO BADLY IT HURTS
WHY DO YOU DO THIS TO ME, NINTENDO? I LOOOOOOOVE YOU.

[Elija2]

So if you buy the game in Europe you'll get 2 download codes for a demo version that you can give to your friends to let them try it out. It sounds like it will be the same demo that some Club Nintendo members got. The codes probably won't work on consoles outside of Europe. I wonder if they'll even release a proper demo to everyone. It seems weird to put out such an exclusive demo.

[jkid101094]

GRRRRRRRRRR.
I just want to play the game a little early. Why is Nintendo making that so hard?

[Elija2]

From what I heard the demo is really short though. You can only import 3 Miis and there are only a handful of activities to do with them. Although the demo has unlimited uses and you can carry over your progress to the full game.

[jkid101094]

Although the demo has unlimited uses and you can carry over your progress to the full game.

And you get an exclusive item.

But God, the wait is damn well unbearable. I just want to try the fucking game.

[Hakudamashi]

Nintendo demos are weird

[Elija2]

And you get an exclusive item.

But God, the wait is damn well unbearable. I just want to try the fucking game.

Was that fan translation of the first game not enough for you?

The fact that they're making these demos so exclusive leads me to believe that they won't be putting out a regular demo on the eShop. I guess you'll just have to wait 3 weeks to try the game. OH, THE AGONY!

[Hakudamashi]

3 weeks+However long it takes to get $40.00

No it was not, and fuck you. The wait is driving me nuts. I want to play it NOW. NOWNOWNOW.

[jkid101094]

So Danny from Game Grumps hooked my mii up with Yukari Takeba from Persona 3 and they not only hit it off but today, a single day later, the two are already happily wed.

My mii has done what I have strived to do from birth.
[6:27:23 PM] Eternal Goddess jkid: He has secured the waifu V.
[6:27:31 PM] Eternal Goddess jkid: I'm so proud of him.

[Elija2]

Congratulations, jkid.

Was I invited to the wedding?

[Hakudamashi]

Is Eli even in your town?

[Elija2]

Is Eli even in your town?

I'm his friend, why wouldn't I be in his town?

[jkid101094]

Congratulations, jkid.

Was I invited to the wedding?

I don't remember, but yes, Eli is in my town. He and Leaf broke up but now he's in a happy relationship with Suzy Berhow. Leaf wanted him back but I told her to forget it.

[Hakudamashi]

Leaf is missing out.

[Elija2]

You don't control my love life!

And Arin is gonna kill me.

[jkid101094]

Leaf is missing out.

On nothing.

You don't control my love life!

If I didn't you wouldn't have a girlfriend to begin with.

And Arin is gonna kill me.

No, because he's married to Ariel from The Little Mermaid.

[Elija2]

No, because he's married to Ariel from The Little Mermaid.

Wow, what a downgrade.

[jkid101094]

I refuse to comment on that.

...In other news Kay and Danny Avidan are married and planning to have a baby.

[Elija2]

Danny only hooked you up with Yukari so he could have Kay all to himself. What a scumbag.

[jkid101094]

They were married prior though. I tried to break them up but my attempts were in vain.

[Elija2]

Kay is missing out.

[jkid101094]

Yeah well now she's having Sexbang babies and I'm with one of my top 10 waifus.

The only one that doesn't win here is Saber who is alone and only has two friends.

[Elija2]

I thought you loved Saber?

[jkid101094]

I do but my Mii and I are two different people.

[Elija2]

Why would you and your fictional Mii counterpart not be similar people?

[jkid101094]

Because that's not how the game works.

[Elija2]

Make my Mii break up with Suzy and get with Saber.

[jkid101094]

I can't. If that's how the game worked my Mii'd be dating Saber.

They have to do these things on their own. I can only nudge them.

[Elija2]

I'll bet you 100 ElijaBux that I'll get with Saber before you do.

[jkid101094]

My mii is happily married so good luck with that.

[Elija2]

That means I'll totally win!

[jkid101094]

Or we could both lose if you end up staying with Suzy.
Besides, you could also end up with the genderbent Slenderman or half human/half cockroach hellspawn living in the apartment if things go especially bad for you.

[Elija2]

They don't seem like my type.

[jkid101094]

Well you and your mii are two different people.

[Elija2]

Yeah but I'm pretty sure that all versions of Eli out there aren't into Slendermen and cockroach humanoids.

[jkid101094]

Well you're friends with both of them.

[Elija2]

Well I never said I can't be friends with them.

[Hakudamashi]

Haha
loopholes.
