ACNH Pet Peeves and Petty Complaints Thread

If I can stick a fully grown tree in my pockets, I should be able to throw it into the storage in my house as well.

Speaking of storage, why can't we put extra DIY cards in there? If I have duplicates that I want to give a friend or something, or if I or someone else wants to sell them, I'd rather not have them lying around my basement and impacting my Happy Home Academy score. You don't need to complain to me about the mess, HHA, I'd happy put the darn things away if I could!
This. My main room floor is littered with diy recipes for my shop, and it's annoying when the HHA complains about the mess. A, there's nowhere to put them because I don't want to litter my island with diys and I can't put them in storage, and B, HHA, you try making a shop that has diys recipes for sale and you decide where it goes and see how you like it. The little things that have a big impact on my teenage mind 🤦‍♂️
 
I wish Timmy (or Tommy) wouldn't call me each morning after I dropped something in the drop-off box... Why? Why not just send mail or something like normal shopowners would do.

yeah, i was thinking that, actually... it can get a little bit annoying...
a email would be better, i think... :>
 
Ahh finally a thread for me... 😂
So I fully accept that these are extremely petty things that most people probably aren't bothered by:

  • I don't like the shade of pink or purple they choose for the majority of the clothing colorways. They're like very cool-toned, almost neon for even pastel stuff (for example the lacy dress).
  • It bugs me so much that Agnes' shade of black doesn't match ANY of the black clothing or furniture in the game :( I went to Harv's Island to test it out (I have a 95% completed clothing catalog) and I found none of the clothing matches.
  • In general, I prefer the clothing and furniture of NL over NH, especially the NL versions of the same set/item like the lovely series or Halloween series.
  • I wish we had Peach's pumps in all colors.
  • I miss the old Bunny Day eggs. I admit the ones in this game look more Easter-y but the old eggs looked cool. I thought the water egg looked like a dragon egg.
  • Some of the red colorways for furniture actually looks orange? (For example the red public benches.)
  • Materials are such a big part of the game mechanics but they have a negative effect on our Happy Home score and island rating if they're on the ground???????
  • The flying dialog........... I can't even count the amount of times I hit one of the wrong options and had to restart from the beginning. Also, if we input the wrong Dodo code, we shouldn't have to start over from the beginning. Let us try a different code!
  • I wish some of the items were more to scale, like the light house. Whenever I see that tiny-ass door, I think, "What is this? A lighthouse for ants?"
  • Rasher does his creepy smile farrrrrr too often in this game. He rarely did it in NL but in this game his default happy eyes are the creepy smile eyes. :(
  • Bill's eyes look off in this game. I think it's that the pupils aren't big enough.
  • I wish we could move RS and also I miss being able to change the design/style of the town hall and our houses. Where's my castle house?
  • For the colorful tool set, the shovel handle in the variant "white" is supposed to be red like with the other tools in that color, but it's orange.

It honestly makes the whole feature worthless. You use the feature to take less time, but then they also force you into a phone call so that it takes the same amount of time? And it's also at a 20% cut rate.

I completely agree with these. The lighthouse and the pagoda would be amazing if closer to full size. And I want a castle or palace and a teacup ride one can ride. And a ferris wheel. And a gazebo I can sit in. Large scale items would be great. And buildings. Why should we have to make optical illusion buildings from lighthouses, pipe organs, stalls, simple panels, and bunk beds? A simple, customizable building would be great, without having to add an additional player. And the additional buildings could look like shops rather than houses. And houses should have more customization options. Why can't I have a house similar to Tangy's or Wolfgang's?

Also, I'd like a wrought iron fence and arch to go with the iron bench, table, and chair. Also gray iron as an option. and customizable fence colors.

I love the game but there are many details that would improve it.
 
I would like an emoji that involves the whole stomping and thrashing out when my villagers get in arguments. using the mad emoji in harv’s studio doesn’t do it justice. like the mad emoji they just stand still looking angry. when they get in fights, my villagers flail their arms about a little and stomp with that little white cloud over their head. it’s so cute 🥺

Mad rudy is so cute; even funnier when it is raining and he is holding an umbrella.

Same here. I don't know if the mad emote the villagers can do is in the games files, but there are some villager exclusive emotes that are in the games files, meaning at one point you were going to be able to do them too. This even includes the shrunk funk shuffle!

Huh, I never thought about it, but you're right that we don't have the angry stomping emote.

@Koopadude100 Seeing that vid makes me realize how many emotes from the past games that are still unavailable. There's really no reason that they need to be holding on to these for a full year+. Especially if someone dug up the source codes to use. Just release them already Nintendo. Makes me remember when we got half the emote package in Fall for things the villagers were doing since day 1, but they still didn't give us all of the stuff. Like they're still able to hold food and drinks. Why is this still restricted to us? It shouldn't be.

I agree! I miss doing the shrunk funk shuffle and I wanted to use Harvey's island to make a scene where merengue is a comedian doing it and everyone else was laughing. They'll probably release them soon, but I wish they did one big update like animal crossing welcome amiibo did so we don't have to wait every month and get disappointed when it's not added

Good god - do I miss the shrunk funk shuffle 😭😭😭 lemme do the dance again pls nintendo
 
I feel like there still aren't enough hairstyles in the game. There actually isn't even a basic long hair without bangs hairstyle...

This. I really wish we could mix and match with bangs, braids, etc. There's none that look like me, so I just have to go with the next best thing, which looks too neat and polished. Some good curly hair options would be nice too.
I'm also not a big fan of the hair colours compared to NL.
 
Aside from a couple of Tom Nook patterns, why hasn't Nintendo given out any official patterns yet?

Even after launching their Dream Address back in November, and the most recent update adding face cutouts back into the game, nothing.
I wanna see some stuff promoting recent Nintendo games, dammit!

(also it also allows them to rerelease some of their NL ones that've been lost to time, like the Cat Mario and Pikmin ones, instead of having to search around the internet for saved copies of QR codes because the ones that got QR codes have also been taken off their website)
