ACNH × Sanrio Crossover Discussion + Question Thread 💗

[Burumun]

My logic on getting another trailer is that I haven't given up hoping for anniversary content, lol. Plus, like I mentioned, the way the upload of the Sanrio trailer didn't follow the pattern all the others did - not only was the update at different times by all the different regional Nintendo twitter accounts (or at least US vs. DACH), with the US trailer dropping way ahead of everyone else at ~10 PM CET rather than the usual 3 PM CET, it was uploaded a month before rather than less than a week (usually about two days) before the update. IMO, it makes sense to make a separate Sanrio trailer, even if there is other content, just to get people hyped about buying the cards, then drop a "normal" update trailer closer to the actual update with more content that wasn't relevant to getting people to buy the cards.

Then again, I may just be way overanalyzing things. I'd definitely be disappointed if we don't get anything else, though, even though I'll have access to the Sanrio content.

I’ve been waiting a year for my girl Étoile to come home. I’m gonna cry.

I mean, unlike the other updates, this is the first time where you have to buy certain amiibo cards to obtain the in-game content, therefore it would make sense if they promote this update more than any regular update which you just download and don't need extra equipment for it.

Idk, I guess it's the best to check out those YT playlists soon and see if a private video shows up there. For now, I'm on the 50/50 side, but will be not disappointed if there isn't another trailer. I'm just happy that it's Thursday soon, lol.

As far as getting the furniture, I would guess (and that's all it is) that we scan our cards in and can then order it from Nook Stop? I can't see them changing the camper mechanic so much that you'd have to play games to get everything. I'm not interested in moving the villagers in, but I do want the furniture and outfits.

It sort of does. The tweet from “Isabelle” says

Bunny Day is back this year on 4/4! Collect a variety of eggs and craft DIY Bunny Day themed items. You can also visit Nook’s Cranny from 3/28 to 4/4 to grab one item from the Bunny Day series each day. The newly added items are exclusive to Nook’s Cranny.

This makes it sound like only Nook’s Cranny will have new items on sale, but the event itself might be the same items. Either way, I’m glad they at least are giving us something new for the event, that’s already better than holidays in past games which just repeated every year until the end of time.

Hyped for the prom stuff
So excited for more design slots and not having to go to the able sisters

Update looking much better

 

[Che5hire Cat]

Oho, so there is more than just the Sanrio stuff, very nice. Looks overall pretty good.

Also, it's really just a cake for the 1st anniversary, haha.

And what's up with that Island Tour creator? That sounds actually kinda interesting.

 

[azurill]

This update looks pretty good. I figured we would get a cake for the anniversary. Excited for the new bunny day items at nook’s. It’s great they are adding more designs slots and allowing you access to the kiosk from your phone. Was not expecting the prom items they look nice. The island tour creator will fun to play around with. We can finally customize umbrellas and make small flags.

Bunny Day makes me cringe. Yikes

 

[Lt.Savior]

So much to comprehend... All i can say is that i'm very happy right now! Especially for the extra design slots... wow... MIND BLOWING

On the official Nintendo post (source), in reference to the Sanrio cards, it says:

"Starting March 26, the Animal CrossingSanrio Collaboration Pack will be available for purchase at Target stores across the U.S. at a suggested retail price of $5.99."

I think this is the first official confirmation we've had that the card packs will be in the physical stores (and not just online)? That is good news. Not sure if every Target will get them or how much stock they will get, but their wording choice makes it sound like more of a wider release than a limited release.

The sanrio items will be purchasable in game with bells and not nook miles! Im so happy about that! Im trying to get my nook miles to over 1m and using them for Sanrio would have made a huge dent in that goal☺
Also,(and this part isn't confirmed Im just speculating here), it sounds like the Sanrio stuff will be listed in the catalog under the promotion tab. If thats true, and we can purchase with bells whenever we want, they will likely be easily tradable so even if people can't get/dont want the cards they can still easily trade for the items. IF TRUE....then its a much better system than the harder to get meow coupons New Leaf needed to buy the Sanrio stuff.
I have to admit, I think this is the best update we've seen, even better than Halloween! Theres even a hint of Katrina returning, which I hope she does! If the rest of the 2021 updates are like this, I can easily see most people in the NL > NH camp going neutral or switching sides. Really hoping Nintindo keeps up this energy

 

[Cosmic-chan]

So there's going to be new bunny day items or no?

 

[tajikey]

So there's going to be new bunny day items or no?

Yes, a few different ones. I'm not sure if they will be recipes or just items you purchase from the seasonal section of Nook's.

 

[Cosmic-chan]

I just hope they're slightly better than last year's items. I like the colors of bunny day but the items are crap xc

 

[kemdi]

Wait, so is Nintendo changing Rilla's name to Rita?

Well it is a nicer name
Thought I was the only one who noticed that typo!
