Mario's taller, greener brother who's always ready to help.
Luigi is canonically the timid, easily-frightened brother — after importing him into Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream, soften the tone and ease the pitch up a touch on LTD's voice sliders to land his nervier delivery; those sliders are an LTD-exclusive Mii Maker option the Switch system Mii Maker doesn't have.
Luigi is an Italian plumber and the slightly younger twin brother of Mario in Nintendo's Mario franchise, described in canon as kind-hearted and easily frightened. He partners with Mario across most games and headlines his own Luigi's Mansion series.
The reliable friend who works hard to keep everyone connected and conflict-free. They value harmony and loyalty above all.In Tomodachi Life, set this Mii's sliders so Speech + Movement totals 0–3 and Thinking + Energy totals 8–11. See the full Buddy guide →
Why this fitsLuigi is canonically gentle and skittish, and in gameplay he's usually the second player covering for Mario rather than leading the charge. That loyalty-and-low-key profile fits Buddy (low Speech + Movement, mid Thinking + Energy).
To make a Luigi Mii in Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream, open Mii Maker and shape a taller, thinner frame with a long face and a brown mustache, then top him with Luigi's signature green cap and dress him in blue overalls over a green shirt. The picker-by-picker walkthrough below works for both Nintendo Switch (LTD) and 3DS (original Tomodachi Life).
Use the system Mii Maker, then bring the Mii into Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream.
Diagrams show where the option sits in the Mii Maker picker (4 columns, scroll to reach later rows). Editor menus differ slightly between regions and console revisions — if an exact option is missing, pick the closest one.

This is a 3DS-format Mii QR code generated from Luigi's Mii data. On a Nintendo 3DS, open Mii Maker → QR Code / Image Options → Scan QR Code and point the camera at it, then bring the Mii into the original Tomodachi Life. The Switch / Switch 2 has no camera, so it can't scan Mii QR codes — for Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream use the step-by-step instructions above (or the online Mii creator).

The key contrast with Mario — make Luigi noticeably taller and slimmer; push the height slider up and the weight slider down.
A longer face than Mario's rounder one — pick a more oval face shape.
His green cap with the white "L" roundel — add a green hat in-game or lean on a green colour scheme; short brown hair underneath.
The same thick dark mustache as Mario — choose the fullest mustache option.
A green shirt under blue overalls goes on as in-game clothing once he's imported into LTD.
Mario
His slightly older but shorter twin brother — the two are inseparable across the whole franchise.
Waluigi
His lanky, scheming arch-rival, created expressly as Luigi's antagonistic counterpart.
Recreate Mario for the classic brother pair and Waluigi for the rivalry — but Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream decides relationships its own way. Friendships grow from proximity and shared time, and romance runs on dating preferences, random crushes and zodiac/birthday compatibility, so the game won't link the brothers (or pit the rivals) for you; house them close and steer their conversations.
Luigi began as a green palette-swap of Mario during the development of 1983's Mario Bros.
His name echoes the Japanese word "ruiji" (類似), meaning "similar" — a nod to his origin as a Mario look-alike.
Super Mario Bros. 2 established him as the taller brother and the better jumper.
Charlie Day voices Luigi in the 2023 Super Mario Bros. Movie, separate from his long-time game voice.
A Buddy-type Luigi is the steady, loyal resident every island needs — slower to step into the spotlight than Mario, but quick to support whoever's nearby. LTD grows friendships through proximity and repeated conversations rather than personality scores, so house him right next to your Mario and let their bond build the way it would between any two close neighbours. Keep in mind the game writes its own story: your nervous Luigi might find his confidence with a completely unexpected best friend, or even an island sweetheart.
Make him taller and thinner with a longer, more oval face — that's the canonical contrast. Then swap the cap and shirt to green in-game. Build them side by side so the height and slimness read clearly.
No official birthday exists for Luigi, so set whatever date you like in Mii Maker. In LTD, birthdays feed the zodiac compatibility and celebrations, so it's worth picking one even though it's not canon.
Buddy fits him best — set low Speech + Movement with mid Thinking + Energy in the panel above. It matches his loyal, easily-spooked, second-fiddle-to-Mario nature.
Yes — build Mario and house him next to Luigi to reunite the brothers. LTD bonds form from time spent together rather than canon, so play matchmaker by keeping them close and watch the friendship grow.
