My game came yesterday. Much quicker than I thought from Japan but paid expedited shipping. Not sure if that's why it got here so fast. Been playing it yesterday using Google translate on my phone. It's weird it never got localized yet to America or Europe. Anyone else playing it? I named the 2 kitties in the game Leo & Oreo lol~ 🀣 Not great with thinking of names off the top of my head~ 🀣 Yes it let's me use the English keyboard for typing~ πŸ€·β€β™€οΈπŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Happy Gaming! (^~^)

I think only you played Neko Tomo as the game is Japanese only and majority users here don't even care with niche or unpopular games.
I would like to play Neko Tomo but my hype with that game was buried due to other games hype and the price of retail game was not cheap + to get engaged with Japanese only games especially for the games i have never played before, i have to ensure after i bought the game i still keep in touch with the game.
Btw, i was wondering how did you use your smartphone with Google translate to play Japanese games ?
Did you scan the game with your smartphone facing on your Switch's screen so it will be translated into decent English texts from your phone ?

There's an app in the Google playstore called: Google translate. You just touch it on the phone then put from one language to another: English translate to Japanese vice versa which ever language you want it to translate to. Then hit camera button in the app & it will translate the text. Yeah you hold the phone over the switch controller thing though lol~ I even went back & started playing all 3 of my mamegoma ds games on my 3ds & can read the text perfectly now from Japanese to English which is nice. As for price it looks as though no matter where I get the games there's still a $60 price tag attached. It is what it is. I wanted to play Neko Tomo because it's the sequel to Kuma Tomo 3DS (Teddy Together 3DS UK release) I have the Australian copy of teddy Together 3ds along with a Australian 2ds. It's ashame the 3ds couldn't have been region free like the switch is. There was alot of Japanese 3ds games I wanted to play back but just couldn't see the sense in having 3 3ds's at the time... The only good thing is to look for the games that came out on both 3ds & switch at the same time. That's the loop whole in sort of getting to play the missed games. Neko tomo was released on both 3ds & switch but only in Japanese but switch is region free soo a loop whole lol~ 🀣

Happy Gaming! (^~^)

I'm a little embarrassed to admit it, but I thought Teddy Together was a really nice and underappreciated gem. The 3D effect was awesome too.

My only real gripe with it was the text-to-speech mechanism that they used, which made the Teddy sound perhaps unintentionally creepy. It seemed to be using the same technology as Tomodachi Life, and I was able to create some really cute voices with that, so it leaves me scratching my head as to why they hadn't come up with a cuter voice for the Teddy, or to allow us to customise it to our liking.

I've had my eye on Neko Tomo for a while (and Bandai have since issued a deluxe edition of the game), but I have no intention of playing it with Google Translate (which works very poorly in my experience), but I'll definitely give it a look if they finally localise it for the West. I'll buy a copy for my sister too.

Uhhh~ I had both Tomodachi Life 3ds & Teddy Together 3ds. On one hand I liked tomodachi life on the other hand I got bored with it very quickly sadly because I had higher hopes for wanting to like the game more but oh well. To me when playing Teddy Together 3ds I thought Theo (My Teddy in the game) I thought he came off with a British accent the way he talked lol~ 🀣 I know one thing it got on my cockatiel's nerves (Sunny) he gave me look's like: this again... πŸ™„ He also got mad because I was paying more attention to the bear in the game as opposed to him sitting on my shoulder lol. He'd tap my shoulder with his beak like pay attention to me instead of your virtual bear LOL~ 🀣

You can customize the bear as for his fur color with amiibo's. I did that a few times & change him into any outfit in the 3ds version. Deluxe Edition? Ohh wait you mean the updated version. Yeah I bought the updated version. Was reading online the updated version of neko tomo was supposed to improve something in the game but not 100% sure~ 🀣

The thing that bothered/ annoyed me then was they localized Teddy Together 3ds for the UK & if anyone has played a game from the UK. I know this from experience from importing from before the games released to the UK ALWAY'S have at least 10 languages on each game including the English language. Teddy Together is in English. So for Nintendo Of America to bring it to the United States (America) I don't see why it would have been a problem to get the game localized over here back then... I called Nintendo Of America every month for almost a year asking if it would get a American release. I guess the head of Nintendo of America got tired of me calling on the phone & flat out told me they had zero intent to release the game in America & to just import... If they would have just released the game over here there would have been no reason for me to import. I don't mind importing games but when the system is region locked then that means buying a whole system I didn't need... I called them pretty much until I was blue in the face about asking about it... I tried...

Since the switch is region free. I'll just import its useless calling Nintendo & making a nuisance of my self over the phone pestering them when they clearly have there own line of games they want to release & don't really care about the gamers / fans opinions of games that want to be localized. Nintendo needs to listen to the gamers. We pay there salary when we buy there game systems & first party games~ πŸ€·β€β™€οΈβœŠπŸ”₯

@Barbiegurl777
Since you have played Neko Tomo, i want to know what is the objection in playing Neko Tomo ?
Playing mini games ?
Or befriending with your talking cat ?
Or do something else ?
Does it have some similarity with other games ? (gameplay style)

@Anti-Matter

I'll try to answer one question at a time lol.

1. Your objection is to talk to kitties & teach them words & there surroundings. Stuff about the world etc.
2. As for mini games? I've just unlocked the kitchen area & garden area. I think I still have a way to go to unlock the mini games. I did manage to name my town in the game: Neko Tomo Town.
3. As for befriending your cat. You befriend 2 kitties in the game. There fur can be customized with a very big variety of colors. There eye colors can also be changed. You can change the eye color in the left eye & the right eye so they can have 2 different eye colors or make the eye color the same in both eyes. The cats ask your name & if your a boy or girl, what you do: like if your a student, office job, or your occupation can be: "secret", they also ask your birthday just month & day though. I get to celebrate white day in the game which pretty sure it's a Japanese holiday to celebrate girls/ women in Japan lol~ πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ You also introduce the cats to each other. I just did that today where I introduced Oreo to Leo because he wanted to be friends with Leo so I told him to introduce himself first~ 🀣
4. As for similarities with other games? It's very similar to Teddy Together 3ds but nicer graphics on the screen & it looks like there's alot more added to this game in features & everything. You can customize the furniture in the game to your own style. Also Teddy seems to make appearance's in the game but I think that's later. Ohh game play style? It reminds me of animal crossing sort of only you talk to 2 cats instead a whole town filled with talking animals lol. I know I can unlock hello kitty outfits in the game along with an angel & devil costume just not sure if there codes to type in or something that can be bought in the store in the game yet.

I also got to cook rice & make salmon for my cats to eat as well in the game~ Oh I almost forgot like in animal crossing in able sister's clothing store where you do your own designs. You can do that in neko tomo as well~ 😸✌

Keep in mind I just started playing this past Friday lol. The game does seem to go by levels though because I'm on level 5~ πŸ€·β€β™€οΈβœŒ

This might answer your question's better than me I got the web page from Nintendo Japan to translate when looking for other stuff so just copy & pasted the below info lol:

Neko Tomo

Talking cats and a life of flirting

[Notice]
Updated to "Neko Tomo Smile Masashi" from November 19, 2020.
If you already have "Neko Tomo", you can update it for free.

Nintendo Switch β„’ "Neko Tomo", where you can enjoy conversations with cute cats, is back as "Neko Tomo Smile Masashi" with a major update!

<What is Neko Tomo> A
game

where you can talk, talk , and cry
β‘  How do you talk?
Let's teach the words to the cats who can talk.
Talking is a full voice with synthetic voice, and your name and the words you teach will be voiced properly.

β‘‘ Why can you laugh?
In your own words, you can enjoy chatting that makes the cats who are dyed in your world view laugh.
The number of conversations is a large volume of 2000 or more.

β‘’ What can you cry?
By repeating conversations, the story of you and the cats will advance.
It's a horrifying story about the growth of the family and the heart.

There are 10 kinds of mini-games with cats, more than 450 kinds of Kisekae items, more than 90 kinds of interior items, and plenty of elements to play with.
There are 365 days of stories that are different every day, so you can enjoy life with cats for a long time.

<Smiley points that make you smile more>
β–  "Tailor" who can design clothes by himself.
We have created a "tailor" where you can freely make your own clothes, from hats to tops, bottoms and shoes.
Make a matching outfit with yourself, draw your favorite colors and patterns, and freely tailor your clothes to enjoy Kisekae even more!

β–  Like the cats! "Photo studio" where you can take shots
By specifying the poses and facial expressions of the cats, including the background, we have created a "photo studio" where you can take more fashionable and cute pictures.
Use the stamps and filters of the words you taught to take pictures that look great on Nyansta!

β–  "Favorite cat function" that allows you to select the pattern of the cat from the beginning With the
addition of the patterns of the cats, you can now select the pattern of your favorite cat immediately after the game starts.
Let's spend more fun "cat activity" with the appearance of your favorite cat.

β–  Addition of functions
that make the game easier to play Specifications have been added to make the game easier to play.
Strengthening the ability to teach words. Added a "correction button" that allows you to change the reading of words, and a "list of taught words" that makes it easy to change the taught words later. In addition, we have added a "fast-forward conversation button" and a "rest button" that allow you to enjoy the game at your own pace.

Happy Gaming! (^~^)
