Tomodachi Life is getting a Dutch translation

Posted on 9 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in 3DS, News | 2 Comments

Nintendo Benelux just announced that Tomodachi Life, which has been a huge success worldwide, is getting a Dutch translation in October. This is quite unusual since the game has been out in Europe for over a year now and usually games aren’t getting a separate Dutch translation since the level of English proficiency is quite high in the Netherlands. Nintendo might be aiming to attract younger players with this decision.

Check out the announcement video below:
