Q+A
"What?"
SWAP!Squidfell island is my Tomodachi Life island with all the KFAD contestants.
"That is the worst name I've ever heard?"
Not a question but idk hard disagree. It's called that because when I played Tomodachi Life for the 3ds I named
it Spongefell Island after this rip, and the progression writes itself.
"Why?"
If god didn't want me playing doll with the tournament people then she wouldn't have given me autonomy.
"Are you gonna show us the island or what?"
Right uhhhhhh

That's 47 miis all up. Took a solid couple of months go get everyone in and clothed but we got there! I can hear you saying "Shouldn't it be 48? I counted for some reason", and to that I say nuh uh. Weird Al's stand doesn't get a mii because making Michael Jackson a pet was funny.

Speaking of Al, did you know he lives in a sewer with his hamster pal?
Harvey made it onto the island before MJ, even, because I'd just binged the Weird Al Show.

The Jazz Cats were early adds and I really wanted to ship them together. It took like a full week of badgering before Milk Bowl asked Shades out and then God Damn Monokuma jumped out like "I am the one Shades loves". You won't believe what happened.

This caused a whole ass crashout. Left yaoi fans around the world fuming, and so on. The fact it was Monokuma out of all of the options makes it way worse, too, like. Come on. You just KNOW he's here to cause despair. I'm eagerly awaiting the day Shades ditches Monokuma. Bad influence, that bear is. They're the strongest couple on Earth though, apparently, so that's not looking likely. One day, though, we'll get all 3 Jazz Cats in one house. Any day.

Milk Bowl rebounded, though. He got with donk not long after and they're happily ever after and all that, but. God.


Also. They had a kid??

They asked me the name and I went with John C. Jazzcat (you'll never guess what the C stands for). John wasn't meant for this world, though. A short montage later he packed up his stuff and moved to the Big City, where he's now attending Barkley's College of SLAM. Probably. In any case, his parents will never speak of him again.

Jack Black and Elmo arrived to the island on the same day so I introduced them. Jack went on a rant, Elmo wasn't having it and walked away. And, you know what they say about first impressions. I've tried a few times to bring them back together but they only ever wave hands and say hi before walking away.

And like. Good for Elmo I guess. For a 3 and a half year old he's doing pretty well living by himself. One time I checked in and he'd given himself this really shitty haircut, so there's that, but otherwise!



Jack spends most of his time playing his guitar and singing about his crush on Hakuko. Oh yeah, Jack has a crush on Hakuko. He's not the first and probably won't be the last, but she doesn't seem to care about anything but keeping rhythm.

(Also - within like a minute of being on the island, Donkey Kong found Jack and they started jamming. Good for them!)

Paruko, the #1 yaoi fangirl, in action

To this day, there's still no lead on Pharrell's Mystery.

Would you believe he liked it?

When the squids got here I was hellbent on being canon compliant by shipping Pearl and Marina. That lasted until the Moment Paruko met Marina and yeah they're married now.

I spent a while trying to course correct, but they were only getting closer and it felt like an uphill battle. So eventually I gave my blessing and let love win. Pearl might be third wheeling but she's got a thing going on with Wario, so it all works out.

Cross-contestant crushes like this happen pretty often, and I usually brush them off because they're dumb. But Pearl and Wario is such a funny pairing it had my full approval from the outset.

I really enjoy the idea of a relationship happening to Wario. Like, yeah, Pearl WOULD see something in Wario. And Wario being disinterested but going along with it for the hell of it is so fun. Good for them, good for them.

The people have spoken: Puar book is universally beloved.

Poor Phoenix. He just had to go crushing on Monokuma. Bless his heart.

Mi ssi ng No. and its man y t ale nts .

"Colonel, I'm trying to run a stealth operation, but the user interface keeps outing my location."

If only there was some way of knowing...

HOBaRT's mii took some creativity, being a mixer and all. He could have had a facepaint face, but that's the easy way out. I think his mixer parts all hodge-podged out of mii faces are charming. He wears that Australian flag on his chest instead of his forehead, but also the Aboriginal flag because get with the program.

Also, he lives at a Bunnings.

I'm sure Eminem has some things to say about that.

Nico Nico's face doesnt translate to a mii that well, what with the scan lines and all, but we love her anyways.

Thanos might be on his corporate shilling arc, but he hasn't forgotten his roots.

I think it's commendable of Pitbull to welcome two troubled extra-terrestrial youths into his life. It's clear he's making an effort. But he's still pretty far off the mark in a lot of ways, I think. For instance.

It's crazy that he's just out here doing greenface, right? I dunno what to do with Pitbull, man. He tries to do the right thing, but the boy's got no self awareness. I can't imagine his kids are proud of this behaviour, but he just really doesn't see what the big deal is. This is a pattern of behaviour, too, like, he shouldn't need to be told that gifting people self help books is shitty of him.

Others are picking up on these things too; he's gaining himself a reputation around the island. People talk about it. At times it seems like he's the only one that hasn't caught on. I really hope someone pulls him aside and sets him straight, dude's got kids to raise.

To be fair, I'd also be pretty freaked out too if all my friends had giant robot faces.

...I mean, they're right.

I push this button...

Meet Dr. Piccolo! On your visit at SWAP!Squidfell Island, you might find him:

-Aura farming

(Photo of Dr. Piccolo yelling at the ocean not found. But he really does do that I promise)



-Yelling at the ocean

-Studying classical literature

-Playing with his nephew Son Gohan

-More aura farming

-Living among the goats

-Doing some bulllllshit

You wouldn't expect it, but sphelonious donk and Eminem are like peas in a pod. It must be the eyes.

We stan a short king.

Can't believe they ported this game from the Dreamcast. Not what I would have picked but it's good that the classics are accessible.

That's the other guy.

Average neurodivergent household:

(Crazy they're still living with Marina's ex even after they got married. If it ain't broke!)

"@grok, remove the breakdancing chick from my Tinder profile"

Vocal stim compilation:

Johnny. Phoenix did this whole routine weeks ago and he was crushing on Monokuma well before he was taken. You know damn well she's into Wario. Johnny. Why did you think this was a good idea?

Killer reaction image btw. Cropped out the background and stuck it in Discord on the spot.

count your days, adam.

GLAZE!

...Does he know it's alive?

Terebi-chan watch it!!!

Solid Snake? More like... Silly Snake.

Oh yeah ZUN and Mariya are married. They're the couple I forget about on account of, like, they're two real world people who I don't know well enough to really care for. They're definitely the moust couple couple on the island, they go jogging together and have dates and stuff. There's such a pure heterosexual joy to them. Bless their boring ass hearts.

Wouldn't take Ajit for a Filthy Frank fan, but each to their own.

Of course the Wario Partners would set up base right in front of the treasure shop. Who cares if they're right on top of the footpath? Those suckers can take the long way. Not like there'll be much for anyone else once they're through.

Wow. Science is amazing.

It's a rare breed that avoids mentioning people by name, but when they come around it's beautiful.

"WOWIE! FRISK IS ON THE NEWS!"

Dr. Robotnik and Mr. Krabs are probably my favorite couple on the island. They bonded over a mutual love of youtube poop, and then developed a mutual love for each other. They were crushing on each other for, like, close to a month, it was agonizing. Maybe 3 separate times Krabs told me about his feelings and then decided he wasn't ready to confess, but they got there eventually. (Not without Eminem's interference, though - this is the second time he's tried to get with someone he barely knows like this. I think he just likes causing drama.)

They're so gay, it's awesome. Robotnik is a big old softie deep down, and Krabs is also there.

Me too, Geno. Me too.

Hah.

Mistook?

Come on, Robotnik. Everyone knows D12 branded Salsa beats HOBaRT juice in a food-off any day. Go study up and come back when you can give K a real match.

Didn't expect Wario would be the first to introduce Pearl to the family, but it went great.

Mostly.
Prick.

These four are tight-knit as all hell. They're probably the most frequent customers at Tomoria, and even when they're not there you can usually find two of them mid-hangout. They got together by chance; Robotnik, MissingNo. and Phoenix were all friends with each other independently so it was a matter of time before the group formed. Terebi-chan made friends with Phoenix early after she got there, and he introduced her to the rest of the gang and they all hit it off.

Hydrogen bomb vs. coughing ba- WAIT WHAT

Free advice: get yourself a partner you can say dumb bullshit to.

Free advice: Use your sphelonious donk powers to torment the guy who rejected your ex.

Reggie Fils-Aime and Bill Trinen must have known each other before they got to the island, cause they took to one another immediately. They set up office and have been hard at work ever since.

You know they're committed to the job because they eat and sleep at Nintendo HQ. I hope Reggie doesn't take things too seriously, though, because his workplace conduct has been pretty off. 5 times and counting now he's told me about his feelings for Bill, and in a workplace environment like that, fat chance. The relationship would be awful for their efficiency, and that's not to mention the power dynamic!

He even went and got some facial reconstruction done, and he hasn't said anything, but I think he's trying to draw Bill's eye. It's probably cause for alarm, but as long as the CEO keeps the ship running I suppose it's alright.

Bro WISHES he was him.

It's the model trains to his mid-life crisis.

Bribing by way of Fortnite. I think this speaks for itself.

Snowman's wing patterns don't show well when he's a human-shaped mii, but he's very proud of them.

An overhead view of SWAP!Squidfell Island:

  1. Finalists' island. The house up top is DJ Professor K's, and the rest of the top 4 (along with ZUN, who married into privilege) get the lower half. People love hanging out on K's law, must be proximity to his throne out front..
  2. The MNN news tower. I dunno how anyone gets out there.
  3. The home improvement district. SWAP!Squidfell somehow got a Bunnings, which happens to be where HOBaRT lives.
  4. One of a few beaches. This is the nice one where everyone hangs out though, with the lawn chairs and everything. Half of the beach is taken up by Krabs' place (which he shares with Robotnik, hence the rocks), but people don't seem to mind.
  5. The treasure shop. Had a nice open lawn until the Wario Partners LLP moved in and claimed land right in the walkway.
  6. Dr. Piccolo's place, out in relative isolation where he has some peace and quiet. You wouldn't think from the Namekian infrastructure, but he runs a fully equipped medical center from it.
  7. The carnival. It kinda blows, there's only the one ride and a pool noone's allowed in, but it draws attention in any case. Across from the pool live Thanos, King Dedede and Johnny Bravo.
  8. The park. There's a lot of greenery around, but this spot's cleared out for picnicking, and to break up the row of houses.
  9. Town center. Off to the fountain's west is the clothes shop and pallete house.
  10. Tomoria restuarant, everyone's favorite meetup spot. Sat right south of the place are Eminem and Papyrus' places. I reckon they moved to this part of the island for their shared love of spaghetti.
  11. The Jazz Cat's place, ie. donk and Milk Bowl's place and Shades' side shack because he's too good to live with the others. Their front lawn is split between the grocery store and a sprinkler that everyone uses even though it belongs to the cats.
  12. Daft Punk's lot. Eventually when I can get the robots moved in together this block they'll be living in their Alive '07 pyramid, but for now they're all just friends and neighbors. Terebi-chan's Nico Nico-shaped house is on the outskirts over east.
  13. West of the photographers are Geno and Quote, and south of there the Jack bros live across from the pawn shop.
  14. Rhythm Masters were the first miis onto the island, so they get the centermost house by seniority. To their east are Jack Black, Elmo and their little nature lot. Mind your step walking east of Rhythm Masters' place; if the manhole is loose you might fall into Weird Al's house.
  15. A big empty plain. Something might get put in here eventually, but for now it's just Donkey Kong's place in the corner and the old market stand way in the back. I'm sure noone minds the open space, though.
  16. Celebrity lane, where all the Hollywood-types are. Will Smith and his boy Howard are in the very corner, across from Pitbull and his kids Pupoy and Marcianito. Adam Levine is at the intersection, fenced off from all those other nutjobs.
  17. Metal Ajit Pai's house. For a guy of his status you'd think he could find better real estate, but the dry dirt patch was the only lot anyone would sell him. If you can imagine that.
  18. Nintendo of America's headquarters. Complete with nameplate out front and all.
  19. Off the Hook (featuring Pearl)'s home base, complete with colorful lights out front to match the idol vibe and a good coastal view.
