Elementary, my dear Cactus.
This needs some investigation.
Discuss ideas and findings on the talk page.
Specifically: There's some more interesting stuff in Scn\Scene.

Tomodachi Collection is a Japan-exclusive DS game wherein the player creates Mii characters to live on an island together, so they could watch the Miis interact with others. It was the first game to include the use of Mii avatars outside of the original Wii console, although Miis could be transferred from the user's Wii.

A sequel, Tomodachi Life, was released internationally for the 3DS, although an English fan translation is available for this game.
