‼️ NEW VILLAGER MOVE IN GLITCH ‼️

[Dork]

As we all know, Nintendo has addressed the amiibo glitch involving adopting villagers that were forcibly moved out via the campsite.

That issue seemed to have been resolved, however I and a few other people have encountered a new problem.

I visited a friend who recently forcibly moved out Ankha and sold her to someone. However, Ankha was for some reason in her void. Since I had an open spot, she moved in. However, the next day her house placed but I could not access her house. Instead there is a sign on her door saying “I’ve moved out”. I tried TTing to the next day and she still wasn’t gone, and her house still had that sign up.

I’m not sure if that means I won’t be able to move villagers in or out in the meantime but that honestly sucks so much.

PLEASE be cautious and inform Nintendo of this glitch!
I've seen that it's happened to a few other people online but since it's not as glaring of an issue as the last 2 glitches, it might not be resolved as quickly.

——-

Update 1: some people say that reporting your problem villager to isabelle will make the house disappear! It didn’t work for me with ankha but it’s worth a try

Update 2: it appears that forcing them out via amiibo/campsite can work! Those who don’t have easy access to an amiibo will likely have to wait for a patch though

Yep. Newest glitch involving villager trading. Honestly, I see more and more glitches and bugs in this game. Cmon Nintendoooo

I love this game and appreciate and respect the workers who put in the effort to make this game but Nintendo really has to get this stuff together. This is mad annoying

Yep, I'm upset as well considering I still don't know if my Purrl will be glitched or not. I guess tomorrow I'll find out.

I think some variation of this happened to me as well-- clearly there's a problem with how the game processes amiibo evicted villagers. I have a Kiki house on my island that has an "I've moved out" sign, and there's nothing I can do about it. It makes me not want to play the game-- heck, it kind of makes me completely want to reset my island. It's super frustrating.

ugh i feel that! it's honestly so frustrating and it reduces my motivation to play the game until it's resolved? i just want my favourite villagers.

Also experiencing this. Picked up Fauna, TT'd to the next day, her house is there saying "I've moved out." Who should we report it to? Is there an e-mail line or a twitter or something we should be messaging?

Thanks for the info c:

You can find nintendo's support info here but it seems their business hours are closed rn their text hotline if you live in the states is 425-970-9648

im @spiritslive99 's partner and i was facilitating the trade so i can say from what the person selling the villager told me the kiki had already been forced out and given to another person. she shouldnt have been in the void but it seems it was and this glitch affected his town. its really devastating and i feel bad both for my bf and the seller who got screwed over in this transaction >.<

Does anyone know what happened when this happened in the past? After it was patched the first time, did these homes disappear, or did the villagers live in them..?

EDIT: I've tried moving in other villagers - I've had 2 move in, AND I've moved the glitched villager's house. It's still glitched and saying "Moved out".

I believe unfortunately whoever experienced this glitch lost the villager. So the plot was emptied and free once again for someone new to move in when the glitch was patched.

This is ridiculous. There's no reason why this shouldn't be fixed already. I'm so sorry this is happening to you guys. :/

 

[beemayor]

probably not a helpful reply but it really surprises me that this game has had so many issues. first party nintendo products usually have a lot more stability than this... at least in my experience. i hope it gets fixed soon but the fixed the first issues with relative speed so maybe this will be the same.

 

[starlightsong]

oh no, i think this must be what happened to me... ellie moved out of my island naturally and then i got lily as a random move-in and got excited because i love lily, but now her house just says she moved out and i can't do anything about it. a friend of mine suggested that moving the villager's house fixed it for someone else, but for me lily doesn't show up on the list of villagers i can move despite showing on the map's list of residents! i just found out another friend recently voided her prior to me visiting him, and though i'm not sure if he forced her out via an amiibo or not, i can't think of any other way this could've happened. i really hope it's fixed soon, even if it might mean i'd lose lily, i just want the glitch to be gone and i'm so annoyed that it's happening in the first place.

i just sold deidre to someone, it went smoothly, but now ive went a day ahead and deidres house is still there :/ i was hoping to cycle out bitty after, but now that this happened idk what to do

edit: this isnt amiibo related, deidre naturally moved out but her house is still here a day later

 

[xSuperMario64x]

This lowkey makes me afraid to move anyone in/out of my town at all. It's wild how many glitches they've had to fix just in the last week or so. Makes me wonder if the game really was rushed.

This happened with my Molly too! She naturally moved out so I gave her to my friend, friend got her safely. But Molly's house is still there with the 'moved out' message, but she still shows up in my resident list.. a bit different to this glitch from my understanding, but this still seems like an issue(?)

I saw this on reddit and I guess it's happening with villagers moving out naturally as well. It seems to be that if you are able to ask the villager to move in more than once, that this will happen, as everyone who has this glitch has been able to ask the villager to move in more than once (at least in the reddit thread). If you're going to adopt a villager, see if you can ask them more than once to move in. If you can, then reset immediately (without saving). This seems to at least fix it so that you and the other person do not get a glitched plot. You won't get the villager, and they'll be voided, but it's better than having a glitched plot.

Thing is, I didn’t ask ankha to move in. You can pick up a villager from someone’s “void” by visiting them. The void is just what we call the data of a villager who has already moved out but the game recognizes that she was recently there.

Note: I’ve updated the title since it appears it’s not just related to amiibos (and apparently not always villagers forced out by campsite, if I’m understanding some of these posts correctly)

agreed. I’m glad they got the game to us when they did but they already pushed the game back once because they were at a rush for time. I don’t doubt that they weren’t completely done troubleshooting the game even by March but released it anyway :/
