How facts are checked

Nintendo sources establish confirmed facts; version-specific player observations stay labeled until they can be reproduced.

  • Nintendo Direct and store material establish the Switch release and core feature set.
  • Nintendo's Ask the Developer interview explains the sequel's design goals and Mii behavior focus.
  • 3DS-era Tomodachi Life pages can be useful, but Switch pages should mark old mechanics clearly.
