Tomodachi Life is a quirky life simulation game that’s beloved for its randomness and humor. One of the most entertaining aspects of the game is its wide array of eccentric Miis—virtual characters that players create. These Miis often find themselves in bizarre situations, and sometimes they even try to sell something completely ridiculous. Whether it’s an outlandish product or a hilariously strange marketing strategy, these moments are some of the funniest in the game. Below are some of the funniest times Miis have tried to sell something utterly ridiculous in Tomodachi Life.
The Great Pizza Sauce Controversy
One of the funniest Mii-selling moments in Tomodachi Life occurred when a Mii, whose name we’ll call “Bob,” decided to sell pizza sauce. But this wasn’t just any pizza sauce—it was pizza sauce that supposedly had magical properties. Bob insisted that the sauce could make anyone the best cook in the world, promising to transform bland dishes into gourmet meals. The catch? He didn’t reveal what made the sauce “magical,” and when asked, he simply claimed it was “a secret ingredient passed down through generations.” Of course, Bob was clearly making it all up, but his wild claims and the sheer ridiculousness of selling just a sauce were enough to make players laugh out loud. The absurdity of selling such a specific, mundane product as “magical” was a perfect example of the humor Tomodachi Life excels at.
Alien-Approved “Spaceship Upgrade Kits”
In another memorable sales pitch, a Mii named “Chad” set up shop selling “spaceship upgrade kits” to his fellow islanders. According to Chad, the island was home to frequent alien visitors, and this was a direct way to make contact. His product line included things like “laser beam boosters,” “moon rock-powered engines,” and “teleportation modules” that were supposed to elevate a simple, everyday spaceship to intergalactic standards. The hilarity of the situation was compounded by the fact that most of the islanders didn’t even own spaceships. Still, Chad managed to convince a few gullible Miis to purchase his absurd upgrades—one of the game’s funniest moments involving the interaction between character absurdity and its over-the-top selling gimmick.
The World’s First Invisible Shoes
In another instance, a Mii named “Sally” attempted to sell what she claimed were the world’s first invisible shoes. She marketed them as a must-have for the fashion-forward crowd, promising that these shoes would provide “unmatched comfort” and “a sense of true freedom.” Sally, completely serious, explained that the shoes were “so advanced” that they were transparent, meaning no one could see them, and therefore, they went with any outfit. Naturally, she insisted that the invisible shoes were the height of fashion, but the ludicrousness of the idea—selling shoes that didn’t actually exist—was enough to make players laugh uncontrollably. She even gave a demonstration, showing how you could walk without anyone noticing you were wearing shoes. Of course, no one bought them, but the thought of trying to sell invisible shoes is just too ridiculous to ignore.
Pudding-Flavored Air
Then, there was the time when a Mii named “Karen” tried to sell “pudding-flavored air.” Yes, you read that right—Karen marketed an intangible product: air that tasted like pudding. She claimed that the air would bring a sweet, comforting aroma to any room and “transport you to a world of rich, creamy pudding” with every breath. The ridiculousness reached new heights when she began demonstrating how to “breathe in the pudding air,” dramatically inhaling and making exaggerated sighs of satisfaction. No one knew how to react to such an odd product. The concept of pudding-flavored air was so outlandish that it became a running joke for players every time they visited the island. It was a perfect showcase of Tomodachi Life’s surreal humor, making an everyday product (air) completely absurd in the context of the game.
Self-Watering Houseplants
In yet another ridiculous venture, a Mii named “Tom” started selling self-watering houseplants. He claimed these plants would “never need to be watered again,” as they came with an in-built water reservoir that would “automatically replenish the soil.” The catch, of course, was that Tom had no idea how these plants supposedly worked, nor could he provide any scientific explanation. His pitch was full of made-up jargon like “photosynthesis 2.0” and “high-tech chlorophyll integration.” The funny part was that Tom actually sold a few of these plants to the other Miis on the island, despite their obvious lack of practicality and Tom’s complete lack of credibility. The idea of selling something so preposterous in such a serious manner was another brilliant example of the game’s humor.
The Mystery of the “Dream Dust”
On one occasion, a Mii named “Eliza” began selling what she called “dream dust.” She claimed it was a rare, magical substance that, when sprinkled in the air before bedtime, would ensure that you had the most vivid and delightful dreams imaginable. She assured everyone that it was “harvested directly from the clouds” and “preserved in a sacred manner.” The only problem? No one could ever figure out exactly what “dream dust” was, and Eliza never explained it. She simply handed out small bags of sparkling powder with a smile and promised that it would “improve your quality of sleep.” The absurdity of trying to sell something that was essentially glitter made players laugh, and the product’s utter vagueness only added to the hilarity.
The “Ultimate” Time Travel Watch
Lastly, a Mii named “George” tried to sell what he called the “Ultimate Time Travel Watch.” According to George, this watch would allow anyone to travel through time, to visit the past, or see the future. The problem? George was very vague about how the watch worked and offered no tangible proof of its capabilities. He showed it off by claiming that if you wore it and said a “secret code,” you would be sent to a different time. Of course, the watch was just a regular wristwatch, and it did nothing but tell the time. Still, George’s unshakable confidence and his serious pitch sold a few watches to unsuspecting Miis. The idea of selling something so preposterous, with no actual way to demonstrate its function, became an instant classic Tomodachi Life moment.
Conclusion
Tomodachi Life is filled with bizarre, comedic moments that make it one of the most entertaining simulation games. Whether it’s the absurdity of invisible shoes or the charm of an unconvincing time travel watch, the game never fails to deliver when it comes to hilariously ridiculous sales pitches. The fun doesn’t lie in the items being sold, but rather in the way the Miis passionately market their outrageous products, creating a world that’s both surreal and laugh-out-loud funny. If you’ve ever played Tomodachi Life, you know that these ridiculous moments are part of the charm, keeping you hooked on the unpredictable humor of the game.
