Animal Crossing Direct Discussion Thread

I find it interesting that Kappn takes us to island with different seasons, weather, and time of day on a BOAT while Dodo Airlines takes us to another island with the same everything as our island by PLANE. I feel like these should be swapped.
 
" Nintendo has confirmed that Animal Crossing: New Horizons' Version 2.0 update and its Happy Home Paradise paid DLC will be the final major updates to the game. " source

This is a bit of a bummer about the DLC being one and only... hopefully the DLC sells well and they change their mind.
I'm not surprised, there is a lot being added here, and we won't even truly know the full extent of it until v2.0 is released and dug into by the dataminers.
 
Animal Crossing: New Horizons (Deluxe) for 2028

The Mario Kart 8 scenario is a possibility, but I personally think they may be looking to leverage AC as its own brand like they do Pokemon. All the merchandise deals they have been doing and all the amiibo functionality gives them a lot more ways to make money than most other Nintendo franchises.

This is so cute! Ugh, I can't wait to build a bustling street with storefronts.

I noticed that "pergola" is listed under the nook miles orderable items. If it's what I'm thinking it is, it would be so useful for creating outdoor spaces!
 
I have to admit, I'm pleasantly surprised. I expected Nintendo to under deliver as usual, but this is a significant update. It's much closer to NL now. It's also good to see paid dlc. They need to support parts of the game for free, but paid dlc has the potential to add a lot more to the game. I haven't made it completely through the paid dlc portion of the video yet. I am very surprised to be so happy with this update.
 
Omg Im so excited for this update! Need to figure out where I can plot some farm land. This update is more than I ever expected from Nintendo. Also the furniture!!!!!!!!! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA THE FURNITURE

The amount of new stuff is crazy. It took a long time and the dry spell was pretty hard to push through.

But...this was definitely worth the wait.
 
What about the "pro construction" nook miles item? What does that do?
 
Wow, just wow. They really blew me out of the water with this one. This is what I've been asking for, for so long. I do believe this will bring New Horizons much closer to its potential and make it my favorite AC game ever.
 
I was NOT expecting this much of an update i am SCREAMING in my own home, i am having a heart attack, i need to call an ambulance, i literally had to pause every two minutes to SCREAM and then CALL MY BFFs (we played together before we all got farther in the game) i am SO EXCITED im going to throw up im going to DIE im sorry this is so dramatic except im not sorry in the slightest

Wow nintendo really saw what we were all complaining about a lack of and went "alright let's ruin these guys' lives, let's just absolutely WRECK THEM come halloween, let's shut them up for the next three years at least"

I suspect this is because multiplayer games are being added to the islands Kapp'n takes you to. The direct said that these were the last *major* updates, so I bet multiplayer games will be a free update next summer or something.

Oh I totally misread your comment, sorry. I thought you were pointing out that they both do essentially the same thing

I'm so freaking shocked at how much content we are finally getting!

I'm a little disappointed Brewster is in the museum and not his own building; I had an area decorated and ready for his Cafe 😅 not the end of the world I have new space to be creative in.

Love the update to Harvey's Island, I do wish it was on the main island tho coz my main street area feels empty with just two shops. I hope they add in a text skip option, coz going to Harvey's island via Dodo Airlines is very tedious with all the text 🙄.

An outdoor storage box, more bridges/inclines, customisable colour fences, more crops, so many things I wanted. Now I just need to be allowed to place rugs outside!!!!


New amiibo cards is also a nice surprise, finally Raymond will be easier to get 😀
 
But can we bulk order NMTs please... I'm excited for the new villagers. I have so many Nook Miles saved up, but hate spending so much time individually ordering 1 NMT each time. I was waiting for this quality of life update to redeem NMTs easier. 🤨
