How to Restart Tomodachi Life Living the Dream

Ever wished you could create an island populated by your personalized Mii characters and watch them live and interact? Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream lets you do just that! This quirky life simulation game combines city-building with the fun of managing your Mii’s lives – you control what they talk about, what they own, and even design their entire island. Your imagination is the only limit! But if you’ve spent a lot of time building up your island and decide you want to start over, you might be wondering how to reset Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream and begin a fresh adventure.

How to Reset Tomodachi Life Living the Dream and Restart Your Island

Okay, so if I want to start fresh with Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream, I need to delete my save data on my Nintendo Switch 2. Here’s how I do that:

  1. Go to your Nintendo Switch 2 home screen.
  2. Select the System Settings option on the bottom menu (it’s the small cog icon).
  3. Go to the Data Management option on the sidebar menu.
  4. Select ‘Delete Save Data.’ You may need to close any games or apps you have open on your Nintendo Switch 2 to go into this section of the system settings.
  5. Select Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream.
  6. Choose the ‘Delete Save Data for (your profile name here)’ option.
  7. Confirm you want to delete the saved data on the following screen by pressing A on the red box that says ‘Delete Save Data.’

Once you’ve completed these steps, start Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream. It will be like beginning a brand new game, as if your old island doesn’t exist anymore.

Deleting your game save data means you won’t be able to get your island back later, so make sure you’re absolutely certain before you do it. This will remove all your Miis and everything you’ve built on your island.

You have a lot of freedom to customize your island however you like, so don’t worry too much about the initial layout. You can also freely edit or delete the Miis you’ve created, letting you make new ones even if you’ve reached the island’s Mii limit – just be prepared to remove an existing Mii to make space.

However, if you want to recapture that initial feeling of making progress – which tends to fade later in the game – starting a new game is the best way to do it.
