What console do you think the next main AC game will be for?

What console do you think the next AC game will be for?

If you look closely at the pattern, I think it goes like this. (May be wrong with first few, never played them)



Console
Portable
Console
Portable

So there is no clear pattern. However, if the list is correct, then there are 4 console games and 2 portable games. This presumably means that the next game will be a portable game. This would also make a lot more financial sense, considering NL and WW were such a hit and Amiibo Festival was so poor. However Nintendo may do this pattern:

Console
Portable
Console
Portable

Console
Portable
Console etcetera, etcetera

This isn't very likely though, not unless Nintendo are baboons. What will probably happen is the NX being the next AC game, which means it's both console and portable. But if either of them has better sales results, then the next AC game will likely be for whatever the best sale was. But there is no way to tell for certain. What do you think?

I think it?s gonna be on WiiU, but they already have one on WiiU right? I don't see what else it could be for, we already have one for all the consoles and portables.. maybe. Idk :c

Maybe, but Nintendo may be put off by how badly Amiibo Festival went. It's their own fault for releasing a game like that and calling it AC:Wii U, but you're right, there should be AC:Wii U!

 

[Mr. Cat]

Probably WiiU. I don't have one or really want one, so that would make me upset.

 

[Mariah]

I don't see why it would be on the Wii U ever.

 

[Mura]

I really really hope it isn't on the Wii U. Yes the graphics would look amazing in HD, but I want to be able to bring it wherever I go, like I do with new leaf. I can see it being only for the New 3DS. and probably the NX or whatever

I agree. What would I do on holiday without it???

 

[Kirbystarship]

I hope it is on a 3ds or on a system that you can take with you on the go. I think Animal Crossing is better when you can take it with you.

 

[Stil]

It will be for the Nintendo NX

I agree, I can't imagine sitting in front of a tv playing AC for hours now (even though I did the past!) it's much better on a handheld system

 

[Vintage Viola]

On handheld I hope, but not the WiiU. Playing on a TV sounds nice, and brings me back, but what would come of our precious streetpass if it were for console?

 

[Romaki]

It'll probably not be handheld sadly.

 

[Hulaette]

Well seeing how poorly the Wii U did I don't think Nintendo would waste their time making another Animal Crossing game for the system. I think it will most likely go on the NX.

 

[SensaiGallade]

If they're gonna make a new AC then it should be on Wii U or the "NX"

 

[OviRy8]

I think it will be on the Wii U. This will make it so we've had an Animal Crossing game on home console ever since the 64DD in a chain. It might be on the 3DS, though since New Leaf is one of the top sellers and HHD was successful. The Wii U might not be so successful since Amiibo Festival was a flop and it gave a bad reputation the AC on the Wii U.

 

[Moontoon]

I wouldn't mind if it'd be on the WiiU, but I think I'd prefer it to be on the 3DS again (because portable).

 

[Meliara]

I wouldn't mind it being on the new 3DS or NX. I'm home so much anyway. I really hope it's not on the Wii U though since I've avoided buying one so far.

 

[eeveelovee]

since i only have a 3ds right now, im REALLY hoping it will be backwards compatible with it, which i know might happened, because well, it's nintendo.

 

[kazaf]

I think it will be on the NX.

If the NX is a portable and console, then it's likely very suited to AC. Plus, they have ACNL on 3DS, I don't think they will make another mainstream AC on the 3DS.

I think the whole company is putting resources into NX and just completing the current projects for the current consoles - 3DS and WiiU. I don't they're putting any more in for WiiU. The 3DS might have a few more years, but Nintendo don't normal support older consoles for more than a few years anyway.

If they're fusing handheld and consoles, then it would mean the 3DS may end sooner. Given, the NX "portable" part might not have 3D, but I don't think everyone is using 3D anyway while playing, so it's not a big loss for the NX "portable".

If the NX is quite powerful, the adoption rate for the system will be high - another factor for the 3DS to go sooner. I think the new mainstream AC will be on the new console - NX.

 

[Cascade]

Probably will be on Nintendo NX or New 3DS. Console is better rather than handheld.
