Talking about the classic games of the early Nintendo era, one game that fans are anticipating is Tomodachi Life.

Will Tomodachi Life Remake be released?

The last time that Tomodachi Life was set to release was in 2021. However, up until now, there has been no update or development whatsoever on this fan-favorite Nintendo 3DS game. Since then, people are speculating on whether Tomodachi Life ever gets a remake. Following Nintendo Direct 2023, fans are eagerly anticipating the game to be announced.

Although there are no leaks yet regarding Tomodachi Life Remake on Nintendo Direct 2023, fans of this Mii character-based game can still hold on to hope. Here is a reason why:

Mii is still developed by Nintendo

Since the early days of the Nintendo Switch, many long-time fans were worried about the future of Miis. Not only are the Mii settings hidden in Nintendo Switch, but the ‘failure’ of Nintendo Wii got the fans worried that Nintendo might be abandoning their Mii content altogether.

However, Nintendo released the game Miitopia Remastered in 2021, and Nintendo Switch Sports. This gesture could be a hint that Nintendo is still developing its Mii content. In addition, this gesture also gives the fans hope that Tomodachi Life will get a remake.

What is Tomodachi Life?

Tomodachi Life is a social simulation video game developed by Nintendo SPD7 and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo 3DS. The narrative of the game centers on the interactions that Mii characters have on a daily basis as they form relationships, deal with issues and communicate with the player.

A level of Mii customizability was first introduced in Tomodachi Life and further developed in Nintendo games like the role-playing game Miitopia for the Nintendo 3DS and Switch and the social networking app Miitomo. These games let you dress up Miis in more elaborate clothing, and the Switch version of Miitopia even lets you change their cosmetics.
