Mii News is a building in Tomodachi Collection and Tomodachi Life, which gives humorous (and usually fake) news updates. When a new facility is opened or an event occurs, Mii News will automatically broadcast.
A random newscast will air at 7:00 AM and 7:00 PM. The player can see if a newscast is going on if the TV on the radio antenna is turned on, or if a special event has occurred, such as the opening of a new building. Upon viewing the news, a random Mii will appear as the news anchor to report on the event. The event can include up to three other random Miis involved in some kind of conflict, such as a food item running away from them. After the report concludes, two other random Miis will speak their opinions on the event.
When the player has viewed more than one news story, a button will appear, called Old News. This button gives access to news stories that have already been seen, but will delete newscasts after a certain amount has been viewed (10 in Collection and 50 in Life). The player can keep specific stories with the "Lock" button, 9 in Collection and 49 in Life.

Trivia[]
- In Collection, if the player turns the power off without saving, then Mii News will talk about how they powered off without saving the game. If the player does it again, then the news will say they did it again. This does not happen in Tomodachi Life.
- In the Tomodachi Life newscast about a documentary about the island being in progress of filming on the beach, additionally to clothes, the Miis' heights may be different, as well in the picture.
- In Life, there are two different music tracks that can play on random news reports. The alleged seriousness of the report in question decides which of the two is used (For example, a news report about a new scent of shampoo releasing will use the more upbeat first theme, whereas a news report about someone getting arrested after mixing mustard into another Mii's food will use the more serious second track).
- Even if the player is playing in versions other than Japanese, the Turban Shell still has an appearance in the "[Mii] Crab" news.
- In the "Mii Nearly Pickled" newscast in the North American version, the Miis at one point calls the pickle a 'gherkin' which is what the Europeans call it.
- In the "Mii's Videogram" newscast, the Mii in the videogram will speak in an abnormally high-pitched voice.
- The Food Mart is the only shop that doesn't get a breaking news broadcast.
- The "[Mii]'s Dating Course" newscast uses the Japanese classroom.
- The "Monumental [Mii]" newscast is a spoof of Mount Rushmore, using an edited photo of the monument for its image.
- Some of the newscasts imply the Miis are Lilliputians, such as riding in small baskets with hot air balloons, encountering life sized humans and animals, getting stuck in pickle jars and coffee cups, getting squished flat in books or by an iron, riding on leaves and bugs, and climbing on wall trellises.
- The image for "Gigantic Swing Set Swings Into Action" has the famous Matterhorn present in the background.
- Images of the Miis used on the cover for Tomodachi Collection can be seen in the background on the "Mii Claw Game" newscast.
- The Breaking Newscasts are the only news reports that do not feature the random Mii comments at the end.
- Trying to use Mii News with less than 3 male/females will show an error saying "You need 7 islanders (at least 3 male and female) to see Mii News".
- Erasing a Mii may result in every newscast they have appeared in getting deleted. Additionally, if an erased in the current newscast, a new random newscast is generated instantly instead of having to wait until 7 AM or 7 PM.
- There are unique greetings when a new Mii News is viewed at 7 AM/PM or 12 AM/PM.
