Nintendo Offers Shaquille O’Neal, Christina Aguilera, and Other Celebrity Miis for Tomodachi Life

As our review of Tomodachi Life pointed out, a big part of the game’s appeal is to populate your virtual island with Miis inspired by your real-life friends and family. But what if you want to add some star power to your game? Rather than create your own or importing them from other players, Nintendo is now offering Miis of Christina Aguilera, Shaquille O’Neal, Debby Ryan, Shaun White, and Zendaya.

To add these Miis to your game, simply go to Tomodachi Life’s official site and click on one of the celebrity Miis to pull up their QR code. In the game, visit the Town Hall and choose “QR Code,” then “Scan QR Code,” and follow the instructions to import that Mii.

Tomodachi Life was first released in Japan in April 2013, where it went on to sell 1.85 million copies. The game was released in North America and Europe on June 6, and earned a good review from GameSpot.
