Custom Island Tours

[Nooblord]

Nintendo?s been kinda hush hush about the return of island tours. I have a feeling they?ll return in some way.

So why not dream in the meantime. What if we are able to design our own tours? We?ll be given a random island to edit, adjust different settings like goals, time, obstacles, number of players, teams, etc. We can customize the island through terraforming, and decorate the island with items from our storage.

There would be a rating system, so you can search for island tours based on rating, among other variables.
The possibilities would be endless. If it is a thing, I know there?s gonna be some creative genius that designs an intricate puzzle/maze that will take like an hour to figure out, and I?m all for that, .

The island tours in new leaf were cool... but a lot of them were pretty barebones or outright wack, like the item matching tour. Also didn?t care for the Cornimer hammer tour, it was cute at first but got stale pretty quickly.

Some Ideas for custom tours:
-Capture the flag, 2 v 2 or 4 v 4. The island would be split in half by a river, gotta craft vaulting poles/ladders to try to get to the other team?s base

-Having to craft tools to complete certain tasks first (catching bugs, fish, crafting a specific type of furniture) free for all or in teams
Free for all/team based Mario Kart balloon battle style game. (Well, that?s if we can aim with the slingshot, but that probably won?t be likely.)

How would you feel about custom tours? Do you think they will be a possibility? Do you have any ideas for tours?

fun ideas! i feel like this could get tricky with custom rules though, sounds like a breeding ground for weird things happening but yeah

Just give me the old tours.
Loved the elite scavenger hunt and tuna kahuna!

I will miss Kapp'n and his family.

Makes me wonder if the silver axe is still a thing, and special stump patterns.

It's little things like that, that give the game it's charm.

We still don’t know what Harvey’s island is about so maybe that’s where we can do multiplayer minigames.

Isn't that the Photopia thing?

I was hoping Harvey would have a decent role like in NL, hosting RV's.

Designing a tour is a feature I'd only access if it gave me Nook Miles. Otherwise, it'll gather dust like my construction permit.

It might be but I was under the impression Photopia was somewhere else. I would have to watch the direct again

If tours come back, they’ll probably bring back medals or another currency like Tour Miles.

As long as I don't have to design them

Wow, fans have way better ideas sometimes. I like the idea of playing other player's island tours ala Mario Maker, though I doubt I'd be making many of my own. Seems like a great idea, however, I doubt it'll ever happen, sadly.

Interesting thought! Haha I'd love to see an island that was like a shrine in BOTW. Just a little puzzle of some kind.

 

[Xara]

those are some good ideas, but i?d love if the tortimer tours came back - i personally found those really fun lol

Right, like Eventide Island. Kinda fits the whole starting from scratch theme.
