[Rumor] Official North American Animal Crossing Website being redesigned

[Stalfos]

Animal Crossing Switch is definitely happening, sooner rather than later. I'd bet anything that it'll be revealed at E3.

It seems a lot of people would be happy with basically just a New Leaf HD with more stuff. I would not. Don't get me wrong, I love New Leaf, but after 3000 hours, I want something new. I want a bigger world with multiple villages. Places to explore. I wanna be able to find a secret mushroom spot in a forest. I wanna be able to fish with Gaston in the river just outside of town. I want villagers to actually have routines. I want a world that feels alive. I want "Animal Crossing 2".

Animal Crossing hasn't really changed much since it was first released in 2001. We're still limited to the same kind of boxed-in villages that we've always been. If Animal Crossing Switch turns out to be more of the same, I'll be really disappointed. I'd buy it but I wouldn't be as excited for it as I was with the original game or New Leaf.

I agree! I don't want another NL as NL already id limited in things to do. Many villages to explore in the next game sounds fun.

New leaf has the most things to do out of all of the Animal Crossing games though.


When I say I'm fine with it being mostly similar to new leaf, I mean with the standard for an upgrade.

New Fish/Bugs/Paintings/Diving/Fossils and maybe a new collection?
New Furniture and Furniture Sets
Couple new holidays
More Public works projects
More freedom in customization like in happy home designer
Bigger Town and more villagers (not too big, but it should be the biggest of the series.)
More personalities and unique dialogue
Couple Quality of life improvements like sending mail to other players without having to be in their town via Wi-Fi

As a new feature I would like to see Tourists, whether random villagers that wander your town or Villagers from your friend's towns that actually recgonize you. (For gameplay purposes, if a friend's villager visits your town they will not actually "leave" your friends town, they can be in both places at once.) Maybe you get a new furniture set or rare items from playing games with them?

I'd also love to see crafting or cooking make it's way in somehow, as an OPTIONAL alternative to making cheap furniture like in Pocket Camp, but without the prospect of IRL money.


It doesn't have to be a completely new game changer like New leaf was. I mean I'd enjoy more options, but I also LOVE almost everything about new leaf. I REALLY do not want to see the Train, Main street, Public Works projects or Island disappear next game. The Island with it's mini games is super fun, and gives a breath of fresh air to multi player since in previous games all you could really do was hang out together through Wi-fi. It's also a great money maker year round, and the trains are just nostalgic. Makes more sense than running to other villages through a gate.

I DO want an improved NL.

Obviously with a lot more options, and the AC world would be vast compared to NL, but the same style.

I've posted before what I'd like to see.

Less villagers. (Seriously, ten is absurd. Especially if you've spent the last 6 hours resetting just to catch one at home!)

Ability to get rid of rocks.

Choose where villagers live.

Ability to boot out anyone, at any time.

Upgrade villager houses - interior and exterior.

Choose your skin tone, or add a spray tan option at Shampoodles.

Long hair for blokes, and proper long hair for chicks.

An UNDO function. It would save on resets, should you accidently dig up your only blue rose. Etc.

A lock, or DND (Do Not Disturb) option for your front door. Stop villagers barging in.

A lock on your inventory, so villagers can't see what you have on you. Or something you turn on like a NO VACANCY light, when you don't want any (shirts) dumped on you.

A boat of your own, with deep sea fishing and diving. Realistic underwater diving.

A car and racetrack, where you can win car upgrades etc, racing against the villagers on weekends.

Get rid of Miserabelle.
We don't need a secretary.

More power as Mayor.

Demolishable PWP's.

Themed PWP's, like Western, desert, creepy. Etc.

Make mail from villagers optional.

Be able to disable sitting on stumps, etc.

Instead of grass wear, make a special tool available, that wears your grass, instead of your feet. :-/

Larger sized paintings on walls of your house.

Villager pictures can be hung on walls, and the frame customized.

More variety of trees and bushes.

Grow vegetables and other fruit, like watermelon patches. Etc.

Be able to cook and eat!

That's all for now. ^_^

It's inevitable that AC Switch will happen, I really hope that it's announced or teased at E3

PRAYING FOR AC SWITCH UGH CMON ITS BEEN 5 YEARS

 

[SpiritofAce]

Get rid of Miserabelle.
We don't need a secretary.

So true. I feel like she is the Mayor rather than the player, most of the time. I mean for god sake, if you can demolish trees
and flowers to place a PWP, what's the big issue with a rock?!

 

[TheGreatBrain]

I just want new furniture, more pattern space, and be able to display furniture outside, like in HHD. A new species to catch for the museum would be nice too.

If Animal Crossing comes to Switch, gets rid of rolling log and replaces it with fully 3D environments, then I will blow a significant portion of my tax return on the console.

Just a heads up everyone: Nintendo's Investor's Meeting is happening Wednesday night. There is ALWAYS something big announced during these things. And while Pokemon is heavily rumored to be getting revealed in the next three days, there is always the possibility that Nintendo drops Animal Crossing as well for a full reveal at E3. Gotta keep the investors happy, and what better way than to do than with Pokemon AND Animal Crossing?

This dude gets it.

However Animal Crossing on the Switch turns out, I will definitely buy it and treasure it forever! I'm really excited for E3, I think there's a really good chance of AC coming out on the Switch. May it be this year or next year.
