New Leaf: Welcome Amiibo Update General Discussion

[Heyden]

Can you un-update?
(haven't updated yet)

Nope, cannot be undone

 

[EniracY]

So I've only ever had Special characters in the campground since the update hit. Anyone else have this?

Also noticed Harvey is playing with his musical shakers rather than the guitar xD

 

[GuerreraD]

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!
Sweets dresser, confirmed not...

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, regal dresser and picnic table. Thanks in advance!

I read somewhere amiibo card move ins move out after 12 days is this true?

Used my Isabelle amiibo and went to the campground to go to her RV. I then go to townhall to see Wisp filling in for Isabelle, he looked super cute!

This will be the case. Unless you use an amiibo or an amiibo card, there will only be a special villager's van and a vacant space.

What happens if you Update a physical cart, then play the cart on a different 3DS?

Game updates are stored on the 3DS SD card, not on the physical cart itself. So you'll need to update on the other 3DS too.

can someone explain the difference between what using an amiibo figure does and what using an amiibo card does, please?
Can a amiibo card still have someones RV in your campground? or is it only amiibo figures? I'm confused.

It only works with the figurines. If you want their RV to show up you're going to need the figurines. The amiibo cards only give you a piece of furniture or their picture.

Nintendo is really pushing it. They sit there trying to get everyone excited by adding new villagers. Only to find that you can only get them with amiibo. Now I can never get any new villager because I can't afford amiibo. The only thing good about this update is the secret storage room. Amiibo sucks. Nintendo sucks. This update sucks.

Not to mention one of the most helpful boards on this site will be pretty much dead. The Villager Trading Plaza. So if I ever lose one of my favorite villagers, I made never get them back. I can completely see right through this whole amiibo thing. All Nintendo cares about is money. Thanks for ruining one of my favorite games.

I think I need help getting access to the update. I have not received any prompts to download it from my game. Does it require a strong wifi connection?

Just visit the eShop. It's on the front page. Just go on it and press update

Disappointed you can't plot reset with amino villager card move in

right now only amiibo figures will bring an RV to the campground, there will be a welcome amiibo series of amiibo cards coming out on the second of december that will be new characters that will bring an RV to the campground.

They're on your TPC card

 

[Le-Vane]

You check your TPC, and there should be a tab on the top left with the little icon. If you've finished one, you'll get a little stamp next to it Then you go to your town hall to your cat machine to collect 'em!



Also, I'm not entirely sure if this is new, but it made me giggle. I went into Fang's house (it wasn't an invite. I was just stalking), aaaaand decided to go through his things.

I got a text of something essentially like this: "You can tell a lot about his personality by this... There's a dusty sleek end table in here!"

Fang got all surprised I found it, then decided to just let me have it for free, prompting the same "get" animation as you would with a badge or something.


Again, no idea if this is new, but I've never experienced it before. And I stalk my villagers. A lot.

If I have 10 villagers and want to change one, the new replace their previous house, or be placed aleatory?
