New Horizons F.A.Q. – Ask Questions Here!

[Sheep Villager]

So, I have a question about the amiibo cards. I currently have 10 villagers, but got a dreamie amiibo card. Is the "kicking out a villager" thing still a deal? Or do I have to wait until one of my villagers asks about moving for me to scan them in? I'd like to get them in asap, so if the kicking out is still an option (bc I'm not sure if it's a glitch) I'd like to do so.

When the amiibo villager wants to move in (after inviting them to camp 3 times) they will ask to negotiate with a villager. You can then choose who to replace with the amiibo villager. You do not need an open plot or someone to be moving to have amiibos move in.​

If you are inactive or time travel too much will villagers leave on their own? I was always gutted when a villager I loved left in New Leaf after I'd take breaks

has anyone made a hybrid guide?

Nope, a villager thinking about leaving will not move out until you talk to them no matter how long you leave

Does anyone know if the Western Theme is actually in New Horizons? I assume they would be because Sahara still gives out the Western Vista and the Western Desert flooring. But I've so far not seen any piece of furniture from that and I'm concerned they're not in this.

Do you need a villager of each personality to unlock something like in previous games?

In acnl sometimes Reese would buy "furniture" in general for a higher price, can this happen here as well or only specific items?

So I finally decided to check out Harvey's Island.....and I'm wondering do you have to use Amiibo to get access the models?

Can you not just use villagers from your town without having to scan their Amiibo?

Seems kinda lame to lock even your own villagers behind an amiibo...

 

[Spooky.]

Is any non-diy item considered 'trash' or something? Isabelle keeps telling me I have to much junk laying around the island yet the only thing I can think of are the items I have around that I bought from the cranny to decorate with (like toys for a playground, mugs and food items for tables, etc)

You can use your town villagers. It's hidden away in a weirdly sneaky way. Go in the room arranging menu and there should be a tab to add villagers (like how you have tabs for wall hangings, furniture, floors etc.) Dunno why they chose to do it like that. I definitely missed it the first time too.​

Thank you so much I forever left flowers in Pekoe's empty spot in New Leaf lol. So glad I don't have to re-live that trauma haha

You can’t lose villagers like that in NH. They will always ask to leave and stay if you don’t talk to them about it Be warned that you can’t change your mind if you agree to let them move (in NL, they’d sometimes say, “I’m sad to be leaving” and you could tell them to stay).

I'm sure this has been answered in another thread or even earlier in this one, but I feel like it'd take me ages to search through and find an answer.
But just to confirm, when you adopt a starter villager from another player, they move to your town with their FULL house/furniture interior, correct?

i know amiibo campsite villagers will specifically ask which villager to kick out if you invite them to move in, but what about nook mile islanders? i got kid cat as my 10th villager while looking for ankha and was forced to give him her plot, but i want to make sure next time i go villager hunting again i don't kick out someone i want to keep

 

[effluo]

I’m curious if I’m just having bad luck with shooting stars.
I haven’t gotten any yet. I look up at the sky on clear nights and the two times I’ve had Celeste and nothing. I stayed looking at the sky for about half hour to hour increments and nada? Just bad luck or am I missing something obvious and just a little dumb.

You won't get mystery islanders if you don't have an open plot. You can still get random campers, and it seems they choose someone to kick out, but they'll let you know who.

Celeste isn't tied to meteor showers, she seems to be random, and shooting stars are just rare normally. If you're going to have a meteor shower, Isabelle will let you know.

Campsite question:

I have 10 residents on the island. Today there's a campsite visitor.
If I were to invite the visitor, without anyone deciding to moving out, what will happen?
Or will someone be forced to move out and there's nothing I can do?

 

[marieheiwa]

how many tiles do two buildings need between each other (shops and museum)?

You can ask your campsite visitor, they'll call Tom Nook, say no at first, and then say there might be someone willing to give them their spot on the island. That villager is random. They'll say the villager's name, and you have the option to say "yes, kick them out!" or "nevermind!". You miiight be able to change the chosen villager by resetting (quit the game before it autosaves), but I'm not sure if that's true. It's worth a try.

Kicks is in my plaza today and I also noticed there are three chairs set up? Idk if they were there the last time he came, and when I sit in them nothing happens. Anybody know if there's a reason they're there?

Can you move a building twice? For example, my nooks cranny doesn't match up with my paths. So if I moved it once would I be able to move it again for another 50,000 bells? I'd really hope so, but I don't want to have it in an unwanted place. Thanks!

As many times as you want! I've moved a few villagers' houses countless times (I just couldn't get it right!), and Ables twice!
