Melissa Roomies

Melissa Roomies is a premade Sim in The Sims (console) and The Sims. She lives with Chris Roomies, her female roommate

In The Sims for console, she appears with brown short hair, white shirt, black jeans and white shoes. She and her roommate live at 3 Sim Avenue, an empty house with a big garden outside. She likes to play chess, dance and play the guitar.

In The Sims, they are in the family bin, ready to be moved into a vacant house or onto an empty residential lot.

Melissa and Chris never appeared in The Sims 2. Two Sims that looked like Melissa and Chris did in fact appear in the H&M Fashion Stuff preview wearing the clothes they wore in The Sims (console) version, but it is not confirmed that they are really Chris and Melissa Roomies. If they are, that was the last time they were shown to the public.

Melissa's surname is given as Smith in the console version. However, since the only other Smiths in the series are of alien descent, she is unlikely to be related to them. The name was probably chosen in both cases simply because it is the most common surname in many English-speaking countries.
