About this recompilation

RussoPhone's game-specific experimental recompilation pipeline for Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream on Nintendo Switch, based on dougchansan/mk8-recomp. Recompiles ARM game code for x86-64 while retaining suyu-derived graphics, audio and system-service emulation; not an emulator-free native port.
