I finally gathered my thoughts regarding the update:
AC:NH Update 1.6.0 - Japanese article for reference:
Info on Save Data Transfer:
- Turkey Day
- I guess cooking is not going to be a full mechanic... yet? Also pumpkins are going to have more use, which is great. I have 2 pumpkin farms and was actually thinking of removing the other one.
- Toy Day
- Woohoo. We're going to be Santa for a day! Nook's Cranny will be selling toys. I imagine my villagers with large puppy eyes as they stare into it.
- New Reactions
- I'm glad that these can be easily bought with Nook Miles. I was a little anxious that we had to get them from villagers again. That takes time. Time to take a picture of me taking a picture. Also, I just hope sitting with the villagers won't cause them to walk away.
- New Hairstyles
- It's great that they continue to add more. There are endless hairstyle possibilities so I hope they will keep adding to this in the future.
- Expanded Storage
- Just when I sold most of my clothes and unused furniture, we get 800 additional storage. I hope this trend of expanding storage happens at least a few more times in the future.
- New Items
- I saw the Northern Lights wallpaper and a sunflower rug which I assume will be seasonal Nook Mile items. Then there's also new food items (tempura ramen!!!). I seriously hope there's more.
- There's also a Pocket Camp phone case that can be obtained when you have Pocket Camp linked. It's cool, I guess.
- Nook Phone Mobile App
- I rarely use the mobile Nintendo app, but I'm glad it's continually getting upgrades. Also, it's great to finally have an official catalog.
- Save Data Transfer
- This is blessing, especially this holiday season when many people will surely be gifting Switches. The fact that you can transfer the whole island, or just your resident (non-island rep) is amazing. This could be useful for holding stuff when you want to restart the game.
