New Leaf: Welcome Amiibo Update General Discussion

[mintellect]

Anybody know something about this?

I just had the resetti center built for the first time (before the update). Resetti came to chew me out in front of my house for the first time today and I chose the option I dont remember when he asks why you reset. And then he just left? Without getting angry or anything? Was this always like this? I thought he would chew you out anyway? With every option? Was this always like this or is it from the update?

It's always been like that. If you say you can't remember, he lets you off easy.
It's a good way to avoid getting chewed out every time you reset.

Did any body elses amiibo camper van locked? I have been letting people order from Digby today and now his van is closed? I time travelled two hours to see if is it because its late here. I don't usually TT but still his van is close and lock?! Any one had the same situation with their amiibo van?

As stupid as this question may seem, it's actually very important to me and my frustrated decorative plans, so please someone answer me! Just to know if this update of the game resolves any of those frustrations...

Cabana dresser, confirmed to work now!
Kitchen island, confirmed yes!
Exotic chest, confirmed yes!
Gorgeous chest, confirmed not...
Blue bookcase, confirmed yes!

There are some furniture that look like you could put things on them, but you actually can't (like dressers, short wardrobes or libraries). Can someone check this out for me, please? Ones that I remember right now were the mush closet, patchwork dresser, classic bookcase, sweets dresser, regal dresser and picnic table. Thanks in advance!

I have the classic bookcase and it already has things on it before the update (the piggybank and a record player to be specific). I grabbed a flat-screen TV and that also went on the bookcase.

Is it possible to scan amiibo cards to make a certain special character be in your van, and if so, how do you do it?

So... There is an update for New Leaf?

I actually stopped playing around this time, 3 years ago. Would they still remember me?

from what i've read, you can only get special characters in their own RV's by using their amiibo figure, not the card. the cards only give you their picture. c:

yep! they'll just make a comment about how you've been gone forever, etc.


in other news this update has ruined me financially and i've just spent an embarrassing amount of money on amiibo, but it's fine because i'm just going to pretend i'm a millionaire and not check my bank balance for a few weeks

the Series 1-4 cards are just used either to get an item (special characters give their pictures) or ask them to move in (normal villagers only)
Only the amiibo figures & the 56 new cards cause a van to show up (or give you an item)

The other van is just a random special character that you can't influence. I'm guessing its just the holiday and visiting characters and not say Isabelle, Reese, etc

I'm loving the new clothes in Ables. This polo is so cute. *o*

It is just me having really good luck in ACNL today or are there more bugs on the island now?

I also never had this many golden stags and horned hercules in one night??? I mean I?m not complaining

Nope both today and yesterday I got special characters (Wendell and Blanca) without the use of any cards.

 

[Kristine015]

So I found out today after using my amiibo figure of Digby and letting lots of people order from him, Apart from your 3x maximum order items per day, that there might actually be a number limit on how many times you can order from him. My theory is, it doesn't matter who- may it be me or someone else, all adds up to the limitation.
I had maybe around 10-15 people ordered wii U and New nintendo from him today and then when I tried to go in with my side character I found out that his campervan door is locked!

Has anyone experienced the same??

Idk where to put this so I'll use this thread.
You don't get the option to set the date etc. after you update your game. It saves after you arrive in your town. I didn't know that. I'm one of those pesky players that time travel back to where they last played in order not to lose anything (aka 2014 LOL), and, I just assumed I'd get the option to time travel. So when Isabelle said "a few things have changed in (town)" with that hesitant face I actually almost screamed bc I thought some of my villagers moved out in that month. But, nothing changed. I can't tell if I was lucky or not though. Anyone can confirm ?

 

[Noctis]

Has anyone posted pictures of the items that exclusive amiibo characters have in their RVs (I've only seen Blathers and Kapp'n)? The list of items isn't helping me so much. Someone offered to order items and it was so hard to figure out what to buy.

 

[brutalitea]

I downloaded the update and when I load the game I get prompted to pick a character. But I haven't played in months and I wanted to use the create a new character thing to check if anyone has moved out. I can't even change the date before loading the game? Am I screwed here? Am I just stuck with whatever's happened to my town in the last couple months since I last played?

 

[WeiMoote]

Hey, think one of us should put up a High Score topic for the 3DS and Wii U minigames?

 

[Kaiserin]

If you have a LOZ amiibo, you'll have some LOZ themed villagers!:'D

 

[00ToxicLove00]

Ok so idk if its the update or something but i have 8 villagers an di thought in order for one to move you need to have 9. ive been time traveling to get my 9th villager but instead i stay at 8 and one of my villagers offered to move away at 8 villagers. Is this new or normal?

you cant choose your date the first time after the update.
you can maybe try on another 3ds without the update or delete the update from your 3ds but idk if this works :/
i think its too late if it already saved once
