New Leaf: Welcome Amiibo Update General Discussion

Can anyone tell me how to get Holden, the new hamster? I thought he was from the Sanrio cards, but I haven't seen him on any card so I'm kinda unsure... :o
 
I'm kinda annoyed they changed Dobie's personality to Cranky because there are already four cranky wolves, all except one (Fang) have been in every game. Ursala's also a bit of a weird change as well because there are already two Uchi bears and now there are no snooty bears.

Anyway, is it me or has it been raining/snowing less since the update? It seems it's been more sunny/cloudy than usual, or I must be very unlucky.

He's DLC as part of a collaboration with a Japanese stationery company. He has not yet been officially released, perhaps sometime next year after the 7-11 DLC ends.

Thanks for the info! I really hope he'll eventually be in the NA version of New Leaf, but I doubt it won't happen...
 
Just updated my game. My character's house is now directly in the way of the campground entrance -_-
 
Apologies if this has already been asked, but what happens if you scan the card of a villager already living in your town? Does Wisp take their place like with npcs?

If you talk about regular cards, you'll just be offered to get a gift. I don't know about Welcome Amiibo cards, but I guess it would be the same thing.

ah so they can't camp if they're in your town. that sucks.:(
 
So quick question how do I get the Sanrio cards? Because I missed the game sale and I really don't want to get them off eBay anyone have any idea if any other stores are selling them?

The original card set characters can't camp, period. Even if you don't have the character in your village, they will only give you an item. I guess it makes sense, since they didn't want to make up a billion unique RVs.

. . .

I've been told you can get beans from Harvey when he's feeding birds. How? I tried every menu option and he wouldn't mention beans. Now, I've had beans forever, so I don't need them, but I wanted to see how it worked.
 
Thanks! You know, that kind of thing is what annoys me about Nintendo and this series. Beans are fun, and it should be obvious how to get them even for people who never read a forum. It's the same as asking campers to move in. When I first started playing, I asked Fauna to move in about 30 times, and she wouldn't do it. I gave up, figuring I couldn't get her. I later found out you could definitely get someone to move in if you were persistent enough. That's just wrong. If they can move in and the player wants them to, just do it! Sorry, rant over.

I haven't checked any other stores myself, but keep an eye on the same places in case they restock. You never know. I'd check Amazon, GAME, and I don't know what other sites, but maybe you can ask around or do some searching yourself. Good luck, and if I find anyone else selling I'll make sure to let people know!
 
This has probably been mentioned, but if it's snowing and you go in front of the campground fire, instead of doing that weird hopping dance you warm up. It's so cuuute. <3
 
So I'm still confused about the wisp is it one use only? Like if I ask scan an amiibo and then ask them to move in do I have to find a new wisp? And what about if I just scan an amiibo and get an item, can I scan more with the same wisp after that?

question: I heard somewhere that new leaf can "see" your HHD info if it's on the same system, and that when you scan in a card to move in a villager, their house in new leaf will be what you have it saved as in HHD? Is that true? And will it not happen if I didn't press "link HHD data" on the main menu yet? It's just that I had no idea and I got super excited and moved in Merengue right away and now I'm worried because in HHD I was just going through and meeting everyone to unlock the furniture by opening the boxes and leaving so that I could later go back through and decorate them once all items are unlocked, meaning Merengue's house might look terrible and empty??
