hi all! this is my first time requesting anything on this subreddit. please bear with me as i’m not the best at writing

how I got into tomodachi life:

i’m someone who always wanted tomodachi life on the 3ds growing up. I remember begging my parents for it as a kid but they stopped buying me video games around the time I reached 12 since money was tight. by the time I finally got the chance to play tomodachi life on the 3ds, I could only emulate it since the eshop shut down. it was always my dream to own a physical copy, but it’s hard to justify paying over $100 for a game that’s over 10 years old😭regardless, I fell in love with the game and binged it like crazy. i’d play everyday and enjoyed seeing the interactions my miis would have. since then I have been desperately waiting for tomodachi life to get its next installment and it finally has! yay! I would have loved to get the game on launch, but I just can’t afford it at the moment.

about me + why I cant afford the game:

a little bit about me is that i’m a student who’s currently in a healthcare program. even before entering school I had a lot of issues with my mental health, but school has made that worse. the combination of academics, rent, student loans, paying for medication, and life in general is a lot to handle honestly. I really wish I could spare the money and buy fun things, but unfortunately it’s not feasible for me right now.

i’ve noticed that during very intense periods in my life video games have helped me hold on. I know that sounds corny, but it’s nice to be able to take my mind off life and enjoy a silly little video game every once in a while. I know if I ever got the chance to play this game i’d absolutely spend hundreds of hours on it and not put it down. this game really does mean so much to me and it’s been here for me during very dark periods of my life. tbh i’m also getting severe fomo getting to watch everyone play, but I absolutely love seeing peoples creations and the love nintendo put into this game :)

thank you for reading all the way til the end. there’s absolutely no pressure to gift and I apologize if my post sounds a bit too much like a sob story. I know it’s a long shot and that everyone has their own things to worry about, but it would really make my year if I got this game and I would appreciate the gesture so so so much :)

(I would love a physical copy since I really enjoy having physical games, but i’d still be perfectly ok if I got a digital copy!)
