amiibo Festival The Animal Crossing team is working on amiibo Festival and HHD and not on a new AC

Believe what you want, but Nintendo are defs working on a main series AC game atm. There's no way they're not.
 
good. HHD looked very interesting to me and the more they work on it to improve it and make regular updates/ more content the better :3

Do you know someone who works for Nintendo who has told you this? Unless you have proof or a source to prove it, you can't post on threads telling people they are, it's false hope.

I think a lot of people would like to believe they are, I know people go on about when new leaf came out and this game so in the time line it makes sense, but we really don't know what Nintendo is doing with this game. It's possible they are, but then again it's also possible they aren't. The only thing Nintendo has definitely worked on, is two spin offs.

I can confirm that Jake's dad does indeed work at Nintendo.

Great, then tell him to join this forum and we'll have a source!

-_-

I'm just thinking of the new people, including me, who at first thought they were making a main game based on the amount of people who posted around here saying so.

No. I don't need a source, it's common sense. It's just like all of Nintendo's current top games right now - Zelda, Pokemon, Animal Crossing, and Mario, everyone knows they're working on a main series game right now for each (especially Zelda because that's already been announced), because that's how game companies work.

They're for sure working on a main series game for each of those franchises. There's absolutely no way they're not. They're their top selling franchises, and to be not be working on a main series for any of those right now would completely screw that franchise over and would be a big waste of time, and potential money input, considering it takes a decent amount of time to create a new game. Just because they haven't announced anything doesn't mean nothings gonna happen, or that they aren't working on anything.

I never said how far along they are with development, they may just be brainstorming ideas, they make have actually started programming, or they may very well be a good 30% into the games development - that kind of info I have no idea on, because like you said, I don't work at Nintendo, or know anyone who does. The game could come out in 1 year, it could come out in 10, I don't know, and I don't know why you're telling me "do you have a source for this I don't want to get my hopes up!!", because I didn't actually give you a set in stone release period or anything, or anything to actually get your hopes up, I simply said that they're definitely working on a new main series title, implying that a new main series title would be on the way, and if that does somehow get your hopes up, then that's due to your own fantasies, and nothing to do with what I posted. I never said it was for the Wii U, and I never said what year it would release in, all I said is that they're working on a new main series title, which they are, because when they announce the next main series Animal Crossing game (providing it's within the next ~5 years), I will look back on this post and smile about how I was right, because that's how long it would probably take for them to go from brain storming ideas, to a fully completed game, and if they don't release a new game within that time, then Nintendo are confirmed idiots. There's literally no way that could get your hopes up, because I never said how far along they were, or any other information that they're working on a new game, because obviously I don't know. For you to say that me simply saying "they're defs working on a game" is giving you false hope is pretty salty, and it's pretty obvious why you would say something given previous experiences. There's a complete difference between saying something about a certain game is "confirmed", and saying that a game company is working on a certain game behind closed doors - especially when it's a main title. If I was to say that they were working on another AC spin-off, then that's something to bark at, but a main series title? Come on, seriously?

To actually go as far to say that they aren't working on a main series title is silly, because anyone who knows how video game development works (or any kind of development really) would know they're almost always working on a main series titles for their most popular franchises. Most main series title are worked on for a good 1-2 years before they actually receive an official announcement, and I never said if or when they would announce it, so I don't know why you're asking me for a source, because it's very obvious my original post was written from an opinion of looking in from a development POV.





And as for actual personal beliefs not from a developers POV...
1) NL was announced 2 years after CF, and was released 3 years later. The E3 that just passed was only 2 years since NL, and considering that NL took 3 years to release after it's initial announcement means that NL was pretty early on in development when they showed it. I spoke more about this in another thread, so if you want to read that please click the link below;

2) The AC team would be pretty relaxed right now, if we are going to pretend they're only working on amiibo Festival and Happy Home Designer.
Happy Home Designer releases in Japan in just over a month, there's no way that game is still in development. That game is definitely 100% complete, and that I can assure you (and if you ask for a source then I'll ask you to head to Google and search how long games are finished before they're released). There's no way it isn't - so they're actually only working on amiibo Festival (and probably doing a very small amount on HHD to test for glitches), and considering amiibo Festival is releasing in Q4 2015, that game right now would probably be around at least 70% complete, if not more. So what you're saying is that right now the AC team is only working on ~30% of amiibo Festival? I find that hard to believe. Not to mention that amiibo Festival has probably been in development for as long as Happy Home Designer (due to the die numbers and rock/paper/scissors hands on the amiibo cards when HHD was first revealed), so this isn't some ****ty, quickly thought up, last second, cash grab from Nintendo.

My past experiences has taught me you can't confirm something without a source. Simple. You argue with a lot of people on here when they say something you don't agree with (Someone even pointed out you going on for 3 pages about it) but you need to practice what you preach. Everything you said, is a simple idea or theory. But in the end, you can not say they are working on a game unless you have a source and can confirm that. This is no different than what you jumped down my throat for.

Common sense still doesn't confirm anything. And it's not my hopes up, but it doesn't surprise me you wouldn't get what I was saying. You can't post on here saying they are working on it now, if you don't know that for 100%. You can say, they more than likely are due to this reason and that, but stop confirming things that aren't true.

And anyone can say they will release a game within the next 10 years. That doesn't make you right, that makes you're ASSUMPTION right. You are clearly someone who can not take criticism well when it's aimed at you. "I simply said that they're definitely working on a new main series title" that's you confirming something without a source. There is no other way around that. And by saying they are potentially opens up a conversation for it, and it's a conversation with a dead end because it's not actually accurate information.

By saying they are working on one is also just going against this op, which says in an interview they say otherwise. And even if that's not a reliable source they've posted, it's still better than getting information with you.

Now please, try not to drag this out for another 3 pages on this thread. As far as I'm concerned you are just as sensitive as me.

Thank you for your response but I never actually used the word "confirm", I used the word "definitely, which they are, and yes you're right, I can't confirm that, which is why I didn't use the word confirm. And if you don't believe that, then cool, I don't really care, because you obviously don't know how development works. but I didn't outright confirm anything, because I'm pretty certain I can't.

Yes, because I very clearly wrote "my original post was written from an opinion of looking in from a development POV."

Yeah, you're right because it's not like a developer has never lied in an interview before :rolleyes:
The fact that you actually use this really does show that you don't know much how development works. I really do suggest you do some research on how video game development really does work, and maybe you will be able to see this from my POV. That does sound sarcastic/rude, but I do mean it in a nice way. I have done a lot of research into development over the years, so I have a pretty good idea on how most of it works and the processes they go through.

Honestly, it just looks like you're "arguing" for the sake of arguing, to protect your pride because you can't get over the fact you made a mistake. Everyone makes mistakes once in a while, get over it, everyone else is, and no one else cares. You see these things as personal attacks, and they're really not. Literally everyone is over it except for you. I don't see the reason why you had to drag the "drama" from one thread into another, especially when I wasn't even the one targeting you. You're very obviously still upset/hurt over the original incident, and literally everyone is over it except you.

*smashes head into a brick wall*

You completely missed the whole point of what I was saying. This isn't drama, I simply said you can't say they are definitely working on something without a source to back it up. Because SOME people may believe that, and if some do there is nothing wrong with them. I even went on to say how while it's not definite they are, it would make sense due to x amount of reasons. I care in no way about my mistakes made prior, but it is insanely frustrating how you can not accept someone else's view if it's against yours. And that you can't learn to discuss something without getting so defensive, which is sad because if you could relax for a second, you'd actually be a very good person to discuss the future of AC games with.

"Honestly, it just looks like you're "arguing" for the sake of arguing, to protect your pride because you can't get over the fact you made a mistake.

You read into things to much. Flurry moving made me upset, two strangers on the forum ticked me off. If I was upset I would've said so when you answered a question on a post I made after
 
I'm glad we didn't get a new main AC for the Wii U. The hype for ACNL hasn't died off yet. Why not milk it for what it's worth and then release a new main game for the NX console when people have grown tired of ACNL? I think the two new titles are good enough to tide us over for a while. Honestly, I would not have been ready for a new main Wii U AC game, and I don't think many others would have been either.
 
I wouldn't doubt they're jotting down ideas that don't make it in either that will eventually be in the next in the main series. They may not directly be working on it, but they're indirectly working on it. Look how long the chicken walker took to finally make it into the StarFox series.
 
I think it's going to be at least a couple more years before they release the new AC because, like others have said, NL is still going strong. I don't actually think they are really working on the main series title yet, they've probably actually put it on the back burner and are just working on the spin-offs. If they're doing anything for the main title it's mainly just getting feedback and such for the next game. This is a stupid thing to argue about anyway and I'm not sure why anyone felt the need to start **** over it.

Besides, I think NL is going to be a pretty hard game to top unless they make some MAJOR game changes. If they only changed the story, added some new villagers/furniture/clothing/etc, and allowed us to choose where villager plots are, I might not buy the game, or at least not for a long while, because it wouldn't be worth it. Nintendo is gonna have to up the ante quite a bit; at least for me, that is.

ANYWAY, this got the whole thing off topic, and we should go back to the topic at hand:

Fantastic! I can't wait the spinoffs! I'm going to be investing in both because they look like a lot of fun.
 
I mean, these games are probably to
A.) Hold over AC fans until the new main-series game
B.) MORE AMIIBOS
C.) Show off the coolness of the 3DS and Wii U
D.) (Maybe?) Introduce some new concepts/idea for the main series game. I mean, I'm sure the new furniture and stuff will be used in whatever main series game comes out next

There is so much dialogue in every single AC game, so it's gonna take a while, especially if you want more text, more personality, and more story. I assume there's at least some kind of brainstorming going on for a "real" AC title. Just be patient. This upcoming game could be the best in the series, so it'll be worth the wait
