Animal Crossing: New Horizons Direct announced for Feb 20th!!

[silasthevillager]

Yeah. I was listening to some prediction direct videos while cleaning and some were mentioning how they low key wanted to be able to trade turnips on the online app in real time. A real time global stalk market. That would be interesting.

That would be such a cool feature. Also, no more exploiting visits for turnip prices!

It's at 2pm for me tomorrow and I happen to have a 2 hour lecture at that time, then I'm going for dinner with friends, and probably going somewhere and won't be back until 11pm loL. Ah well I'll watch it all night tomorrow

100% betting there will be a smash reveal

Not for this direct, and if there will it'll have to be Animal Crossing related.

My SO and I have a nintendo direct tradition, so I don't mind that they're usually in the morning on a weekday. We always get breakfast and watch it on our living room tv, it just makes the whole thing more exciting. I can't wait to see everything they're going to announce!

Pr-etty sure he was joking. It's a common thing on Twitter whenever Nintendo announces a video presentation regardless of the subject matter.

It's a similar situation for me, unfortunately. Three lectures in a row starting exactly at the same time as the direct...ah welll, I guess I'll have to wait a whole month for the game, what's waiting a few hours for some info?

Nice, high five bud. And that's true, I'll have to resist the temptation of Googling ACNH all night so that I can experience everything firsthand lol. I'm so excited though

no one asked but here are my predictions for what will likely be in the nintendo direct, in no particular order.

- in-depth crafting explanation
- explanation of how amiibo/amiibo cards will work / announcement of new ones / harvey will be there
- introducing new characters and NPCs
- showing off more new furniture and clothes and player customization
- showing off dodo airlines and online play + nintendo switch online app features
- quick preview of new museum collectibles (bugs, fish, art, fossils, etc)
- more town customization and shop details
- player content like patterns
- island tours making a comeback
- clarification of save data system including backup
- one wild thing out of left field that literally no one saw coming

This would make for a jam-packed 25 minutes. I'm interested in all of what you said other than clothes/furniture/player customizations, and patterns. It'd be nice to hear about everything else you listed.

Waking up a little early to watch this live. Looking forward to seeing what they have to say about it. This game definitely has the potential to be my GOTY if it's as good as we're all hoping.

 

[pinkfawn]

I'm taking my cat to the vet at 7am tomorrow for a drop off, so I'll be up a few hours before it airs here (9am). The wait is going to be so hard, I already can tell haha.

I hope they at the very least tell us how many villagers we can have on our island, I really would love to have more than 10, I feel like 12-15 would be perfect but I'd always take more. I also hope they show us something amazing that none of us have thought of or are expecting that we all love and unites the forum and no one has anything negative to say or complain about

 

[d3_3p]

I think I'll wait 2 hours after the Direct so that me and my wife could watch it together. That sucks, but that's the right thing to do since she'll be working.

 

[oath2order]

Can someone DM me coverage of new stuff when it happens

 

[kappnfangirl]

less than 15 min!!!

 

[skogkyst]

This has got to be the longest four minutes of my life.

 

[Sweetley]

I hope they gonna say something about the character limit for your and the island's name. I wanna start planning my island name.

Also, yay, only 3 minutes to go.

 

[cIementine]

it's time!
