Post-E3 : A new Animal Crossing "not ready" to be shown yet

[Tim]

Thank you for this! All i was seeking was acknowledgement for the title and that they were working on it even if it was far from done.

it's about time, I don't really play New Leaf anymore but I would play a new one a bunch and the switch is also the perfect console to release a new ac game in. Hopefully they pull an "Ultimate" and bring back every past villager.

Not ready could mean it hasn't even been started

 

[Magpiecrossing]

Yay for positivity

If you want my guess, it's plausible that part of the Splatoon team moved on to Animal Crossing Switch after they've completed work on Splatoon 2 last year.

This will give me plenty of time for me to prepare for my New Leaf town...

This is everything

Thought some might like to see this. I hope maybe we get an official announcement of development soon?

I don't see AC though. Or am I crazy?
I like that he talks about surprising the consumers. Fingers crossed.

Exactly, we don't see AC. Which means we can rule out any possibility of getting this year, sadly.

 

[HopeForHyrule]

I'm still expecting either an announcement during E3 2019, or a Direct during Q4 of next year to say AC Switch will be arriving late next year or early 2020.

But as long as it's in the early planning/development stages at this point, I'm happy about it.

Thank you for sharing this, Boccages! It's so nice to see a glimmer of hope. I've been playing ACNL for less than a year and it's my first AC title. I know some of you have been waiting for years for news like this though. It made me so sad to see how sad everyone was after E3 this year. I'm actually happier for all the long time players than I am for myself.

 

[Don't_ask_Alice]

I was so bummed when it wasn't shown at E3 but now I'm excited! Hard to say how long it will take before it's ready but there's hope now. People have been wanting a new animal crossing game for awhile I'm glad Nintendo is listening.

 

[Croconaw]

It?s nice to see some hope! I was upset about there not being anything about a new Animal Crossing game.

 

[tsukune_713]

sadly i am more on the side of ill believe it when i see it, i dont really trust those "leaks" that happen all the time myself

 

[UnwrittenTale]

GUYS.

I feel acknowledged.

 

[rinabun]

Oh wow I didn't realize that, that makes me feel a lot better about it, for some reason I had the mentality that there wasn't going to be an Animal Crossing Switch game at all, the fact that they mentioned it makes me really happy >.<
