Choosing villager house locations confirmed!!

[Bcat]

To anybody who might have missed this in the other threads, according to a recent ign article x we will be able to choose where villagers place their houses!!

Nogami said that when you first arrive on the island through Nook Inc. Deserted Island Getaway Package, you’ll arrive with two or so other random Islanders who chose to participate in the package as well. Nogami said because they invested in this package that they have as much of a right to stay on the island as you do. However, Kyogoku said before they choose a spot for their home, they’ll check with you to see if it’s okay. If you don’t like where they settle down you can tell them you don’t want to build in that particular spot and move their house location to wherever you see fit.

Later in the article it talks about how villagers move out and a way to invite new ones. It sounds like nl's system before the welcome amiibo update, which leads me to speculate that they might not bring back the amiibos to invite villagers. I hope that's not true though and amiibos will be implemented eventually.

Smart decisions made. Choosing where villagers can live while removing the automatically move-in whoever you want because amiibo are smart moves that help the game
