This game was given the award for the new method of play is provides by having friends and family, among others, appear in the game and by serving as a means of communication among friends.

You can create "Mii" (caricature characters) of people close to you, such as friends and family and have them live in a condominium on an island.
　
On this island time passes the same as in the real world and the Mii begin living freely as they wish.
The Mii become friends, have arguments, and fall in love…
You can enjoy seeing what kind of human relations evolve.
　
As you interact with the emotional Mii, you can observe what kind of people they turn into.
　
The Mii can be made to not only look like the person but their personality and voice can also be set to resemble those of the person. You can enjoy interacting in a variety of ways with the Mii who look just like your friends, such as talking to them and giving them presents.

This game was developed to allow anybody to project emotion while playing by having the people close to them, such as friends and family, appear in the game.
　
With the objective of creating "software that would be popular with your close inner circle," we sought to develop a game that you would want to show your friends and family. When we were developing this software, we felt that it was a game about which preferences would be somewhat divided, but we have been quite surprised that it has been popular with far more people than expected.
　
We would be pleased if Tomodachi Collection allows family and friends to enjoy time together.
　
In conclusion, we are very honored to receive this award.
Thank you.
