Guest, you're invited to help build our new TBT time capsule! It contains three parts, with some of its elements planned to open in 2029 and others not until the distant future of 2034. Get started in 2024 Community Time Capsule: Blueprints.
I know a lot of people (including me) would like nh to get more updates, and I'm curious what the community would change about the game. This can be anything, from minor changes, like being able to gift villagers who are sitting down, or big changes, like qol changes. For me, I would add a place to store other villagers who aren't on your island. For example, I want Marshall but I don't want to kick anyone out. But with that place to store other villagers, I could have Marshall there and still have a full island.
So, if you could make an update for the game, what would you change
Let us place tree near to the rivers!!! All the freedom they give for decorate islands and they just don't make possible to plant trees near a river?!?!
The update I would change is that you now have the option to remove villagers from your island. Basically Isabelle will inform you that she can take your requests to remove villagers that you don't want to have on your island. All you need to do is go to Resident Services, Talk to Isabelle, and there will be a new feature saying "Move out Villager" and Isabelle will say that she is sad to see this, but understands the situation and she will let you pick who to move out. Then when the villager is selected they will be in Boxes and they will be out by tomorrow.
Now you will have an empty plot and you can go villager hunting using nook mile tickets.
I had to do some searching because I've answered this before, and there is a lot I'd love to change. I'm probably missing something because of how much I have already.

Let us demolish the campsite. It's usefulness varies, and it ain't like we can't rebuild it later if we wanted it back.
Allow flowers to be removed with the Clean Up feature in terraforming.
Wacky ideas
Let us enter villager homes when they are not home.. We do it for players
Let other player-residents wonder the island like they do in dreams.
ignoring all the obvious stuff, i would love an update to the dream addresses! would like for there to be a tagging system so if you're interested in a certain style (natural, gothic, elegant, etc.) you could just select the tag in-game instead of having to hunt the internet for codes.
There are a lot of things I would change if I could.
1) I would love to be able to store DIYS, flowers , bushes and trees.
2) be able to connect cliffs with a bridge without needing a river. Then I would need more then 8 bridges.
3) Have more or less villager plots. I will not have more then two or maybe three playable characters so being about to use those plots for villages instead. Or let those that want less villagers be able to remove plots.
4) bring back Brewster cafe and Tortimers island with mini games.
5) bring back the plant items from NL.
6) bring able to decorate villagers houses inside and outside.
7) bring back Reese and Cyrus so they can customize the furniture that we can’t.
8) Bulk buying and crafting
9) Kicks and Leif having their own shops.
I would like so many things. I’ll probably forget something, but I’ll give this a shot.
What I want - Minimal
New and un-recycled sets and furniture from NL/HHD— especially food furniture
House Upgrade with bigger rooms - for my rep and the villagers
Villagers be able to visit me and comment on my decoration like in NL. Serve them food or coffee/drinks or vice versa.or other options like in HHD there was a school (i’d like the old school desks from hhd to return; i don’t like how they redid the models).
Store diys (separate from regular storage but a storage for just diys)
Sandwich shirt to return as it was in NL/HHD and not recycled like the hotdog shirt was turned into a costume. Also would like Gracie’s stuff to return (some like argyle shirts are already in the game, so have her bring stuff that is new as well as stuff not in the game; most importantly the furniture).
Nook’s upgrade
Customize furniture with clothing we buy. Also more furniture we can customize (I thought we could customize the antique set in HHD/NL)
What I want - Unrealistic and Everything
Cooking like in the Sims - collect and learn recipes; have some recipes that can have different combinations to make it like 1 any piece of fruit + wheat + flour + butter + egg = fruit pie. have a chance to burn the food (maybe have the burned food be droppable or an actual furniture piece you can place). For food that can be consumed (and not used as furniture), have them give buffs like one hour to swim faster, or go undetected by bugs, etc…
Books that you can put on empty bookshelves and display and take off the shelf and read (and empty book shelves), donate to the museum.
More artwork to collect
Other historical artifacts to collect and donate.
Mini games - hide and seek, whack a mole or something (gimme that toy hammer)
Sea creature models
Unflat and bigger versions of the fish models
Campers have exclusive furniture that you can get
Wisp giving out exclusive furniture to him (furniture that looks like his spirit pieces would be cool).
Reset villager interior option or option to buy off bugs and put whatever they put in their storage back out.
More photoshoots and sets to collect
More vegetables
more Nook mile items
Take away color locking items to each person’s island (and not require trade to get all)
Be able to place rugs outside
More room for villagers
More shops
Limited ability to decorate villagers house interiors (they give you a budget and money and a list of type of furniture or specific furniture they want)
Way to access storage without running back to house
More bush (including bushes with no flowers), fruit, flower types and get rid of flowers growing in winter after snowfall.
The stomp reaction when my villagers get in a fight
The food and drinks that my villagers hold and to be able to consume or use them as decoration
Food and drink to come out of vending machine, drink machine and fortune cookie cart and have there be different ones you can collect and place and some to consume.
Let my villagers wear custom designed clothing and not need me to hang it up in the store and risk having wrong villager getting it.
Realistically, simple things they could easily do like giving us gauge meters for when a tool is about to break. And maybe giving gold 5x durability or something to make it worthwhile to craft.
Construction service! Something like Happy Island Designer so we don't have to individually terraform every single block
Airport rehaul.
Please, Orville. Enough with the menus. Let me just open my gate or put in a DODO code without needing to talk to you for 45 minutes!
Island hopping! Why do I have to come back to the airport if I just want to go to another NMT island?
Please. No more loading screens. WHY do we need to save 500 times online?
I would love to order more than 5 items per day! What's with the limit?
Katrina's fortune shop! Even if she's just a traveling guest, I loved the lucky item feature!
Storing DIYs
Speaking of DIYs when my villagers are crafting, why can I decline ones that I don't have but they force DIYs on me that I've already learned? I don't get it.
- I’d love to be able to villager hunt on the NMT islands anytime even if you don’t have an empty plot. I wish it worked like the amiibo. That way we can always go on trips and when we run into a dreamie, we can always invite them to our island and choose the one they could replace.
- Ability to choose which villager to replace with a camper (non-amiibo).
- Bulk crafting.
- Bulk purchasing.
- Bulk Nook Miles redemption.
- Golden tools never breaking.
- Ability to store trees, shrubs and flowers.
- Item variation / color rotation in the Nooks Cranny.
- Fruit and flower variation / rotation in the NMT islands.
- Villagers’ ability to visit my house like in New Leaf.
- All the old furniture series brought back
- upgrade to Nook's
- café building
- third museum level
- Tortimer's island and all it's mini-games and Kapp'n
- Katrina
- make gold roses more appealing to look at
- make it so that flowers can be placed inside like they could in NL
- expand the dialogue
- perfect fruit + bananas + the other missing fruits
- RESETTI
- Reese & Cyrus, to actually customise the furniture that can otherwise only be acquired through trading
- HHA being brought back in it's full depth
- Variations of snow people brought back
- A separate island that we can do whatever we want with. Maybe at the center is where the big tree from NL would go, and KK would have his concerts there
- Furniture that hangs from ceilings
- More food and plant furniture
- general QoL updates - Fire Isabelle
Unbreakable tools, an NPC that let's us customize anything that has variants, option to let us skip Isabelle's opening dialog, decrease loading times, streamlined terraforming and maybe a performance mode that ups the framerate to 60fps
I agree with so many of these. I'd like not just to craft from storage, but access to storage from outside the house. Like, we can't do it anywhere but have a box by the house we can put things or take things out. It is such a hassle to go in to drop off something then come out and realize you forgot to do something.
I would adore the ability to have access to all varients and know what we've bought from the sisters. I keep buying the same things and then going 'oh, I already have four of these!'
More food/drink items to buy or DIY.
A random DIY that's new in the Cranny at least every week if not every day.
Have bugs that can spawn on all trees spawn LESS on Coconut Trees. I hate making circle after circle on my island and it's the same bugs already all over every other tree and not the ones that only spawn on Coconut Trees, especially when they're so limited in the time of day you can get them.
Be able to commission Flick (or Flick through CJ) once a week without them visiting the island. I'm backed up on bugs that need models.
More furniture and better ones like the ones from Pocket Camp and New Leaf. Also non breakable Gold Tools at least since it's kind of annoying that even Gold ones break o~O
Also online play on an Island like Tortimers Island would be fun since you could play with others online and I miss that a lot since it was really fun playing with random people
I'd really like to be able to "Lock" a placed item. If you accidentally tried to pick it up, you'd be asked to confirm the action. I'd also bring back Tortimer's Island, and Gyroids.
