With Tomodachi Life: Living The Dream releasing later this week on April 16th, players have been itching to get into the game and make comparisons between this installment and the previous. Using the demo, some players have been extracting files to compile information prior to the official release to guide others on what to expect, and to just show off any new or fun stuff to expect!

With a total of 465 individual food items just in the demo, Tomodachi Life: Living The Dream looks like it will have a huge catalogue of food and will likely lack region locks found in the previous game, meaning that food won’t be restricted by player region as it had been in the past. While we don’t know for sure if these are all the items, or if more will be available in the full version, Reddit users and fans of the series did note that while there were 465 items, the last item is actually titled “Food489”, indicating a possibility of 25 removed food items, or 25 food items that will be added on release day in the full version.

Tomodachi Life: Living The Dream Food Catalogue

A Reddit thread from user amxeeno details all the food items that can be found in the demo, extracting the files to show that the game has continued the trend found in the previous installment of mostly using real images of food, rather than modeling or drawing them.
Food items in the previous game, simply titled Tomodachi Life, were separated into four categories; Main Dishes, Side Dishes, Desserts, and Beverages. Despite the name, some items may not “neatly” fit into their categories. It largely includes anything sweet, or “junk food” as the previous game categorized items like Apples, Bananas, and Potato Chips as “Desserts”.
The categories typically will indicate how much that dish may be, as well as how much it will satiate a Mii’s hunger. Main dishes fill them up the most, and typically cost the most. Side dishes fill them less and cost less, and so on and so forth with Desserts and Beverages as well.
As previously mentioned, Reddit User amxeeno also mentioned that there are approximately 25 food items missing, meaning that no files extracted had these numbers as their title.
The total amounts to 465 food items but their number ID gets to 489, no clue what this could be about since that would mean

There doesn’t seem to be a pattern for those that are missing, maybe they were removed during the development of the game.
