ACNH × Sanrio Crossover Discussion + Question Thread 💗

[solace]

Is anyone doing anything special to their islands for the Sanrio release?

In celebration of obtaining the Sanrio cards, I decided to go all out...

I unboxed my ANCH Switch (this will be my third island) so that the Sanrio Villagers would have their own island. I like having a fresh perspective, so I decided to start anew.

I feel like all the items from this version of the crossover look so much better than the NL ones, probably cause of the graphical updates to NH. I also love the extras, cause I think there's more items this time. I don't know if I'll be inviting any of them to live on my island, but I'll be using the items for sure. I've already been rocking the super cute pompompurrin? outfit with the cherry shoes and beret

I ended up rolling in today to nab a couple of packs. My local Target said they were completely sold out on Friday, but had 10 packs today.

The Sanrio cards have appeared back on the Nintendo UK Store website, though they are still out of stock of course. But they were taken down on Friday and they’ve reappeared again. I don’t know if this means anything.

Sanrio cards were relisted on Nintendo UK store within the past couple of minutes. Fingers-crossed, UK people!

One per customer is good to see

Considering people ordered multiple packs when orders accidentally went up on Friday I'm wondering if Nintendo's going to remove duplicates from their orders.

Someone on Twitter has had their cards delivered by Nintendo UK today after the accidental drop on Friday. The packaging is the same as the old New Leaf ones, but has been updated to say ‘compatible with New Horizons’. So confirmed that it’s new stock and not just left over older packets!

As if old stock could have survived this long.. xD

GamePro, a german gaming website, also got information (source for the german fans) from Nintendo Germany that there will be NO re-release of the cards in Germany, Austria and Switzerland.
(the video that got linked a few pages back showed Nintendo's answer had a couple of spelling mistakes, so people were still hoping it was a prank)

The german Nintendo Twitter tweeted about the re-release in Europe, so everyone was expecting them - that what makes me really mad about this, not just hugely disappointed.

So for whatever reason, we can't officially get about half of the content of this patch (I am not counting the release of the cards from five years ago) - that is absolutely maddening.

Has anyone heard anything about a restock in the US?

 

[Emmsey]

Good to see a return to UK Nintendo would be great to get even the tiniest bit of notice from them before they sell again!

I ordered some fan made Sanrio cards, they arrived, and I have begun scanning them in. I tried to get some from Target with no luck. Bleep Nintendo and Target for not making enough cards and doing a stupid roll out.

I wonder if Target will do a restock sometime in the future.

wtf?? that’s just unacceptable. why would german nintendo tweet about it if they weren’t included in the re-release and more importantly, why are fans only being told this now? like, this is information that should’ve been shared weeks ago. :/

1) Looks like anyone who managed to order multiple packs during the accidental drops have had their full orders honoured.
2) Apparently live chat agents have said stock will go up in “the next day or so” on Nintendo UK.

Does anyone know if Nintendo UK will ship these cards internationally?

i've been checking the website everyday, but haven't seen the sanrio cards come back into stock
i thought that they were meant to come back into stock on the 26th or either late march, which is worrying because it'll be april tomorrow...

That's somewhat off-putting to know given this item has always been listed as one per customer - even all the way back in 2016.

They are expected to go up this week.
