Cheats & Guides

Tomodachi Life Cheats For 3DS

  1. Skip Mii Texts

    Hit the A Button or Down on D-Pad to skip texts while Miis are talking. This can be very useful if you want to skip any boring talking while viewing or interacting with any Islanders, but that's all it does is skip Mii Texts.
    This can also trigger a glitch where Miis will talk but their mouths do not move or animate to show them speaking. The glitch itself does nothing but make Miis talk with their mouths closed for an entire text box.

  2. Sneaky Nintendo

    Play "Quirky Questions" at the Observation Tower. When you have the chance to fill in the blank to the question "Who loves ____?", enter "Sony" or "Microsoft". No one will raise their hands, because Sony and Microsoft are Nintendo's competitors.

  3. Draw on Mii Faces

    Wait for your target Mii to go to sleep. Then enter their room, and tap on their face with the touch screen. This will open a top down view of their face, with options to adjust marker color and size, as well as an option to wipe their face clean. Move the stylus along the screen like any drawing tool on paper, and see your “art” come to life!
