what do you hope for in the next main game?

[Hulaette]

I want to see the Statues back when you have fully upgraded your house back in the original Animal Crossing game for the GameCube.

 

[Apron]

I think it'd be kind of neat to have some level of backward compatibility with New Leaf. Maybe you could visit your old town, move items over, maybe have villagers move in from your old town.

i like that idea! maybe even move villagers too lol

 

[Apron]

I just thought of something else. New Leaf gives you a lot of freedom to create clothing and designs and stuff. It'd be really cool if you could create your own custom furniture. Having Cyrus refurbish furniture in New Leaf is one of my favorite features of the game. Creating furniture or sets of furniture to decorate your house with from scratch though would be a whole new level of special though. You could make a room completely and 100% uniquely yours~

I think it would be cool if there were some new villagers and if the limited capacity of ten villagers were increased.

Also, some more mini-games in town (just like hide-and-seek, that can already be played) would be could

 

[VividVero]

I'd hope for more villager breeds/personalities or expand on the newer ones. Bring back the old dialogue and possibly add every villager to have their own unique phrases that no other has, or a special interaction with your mayor. Choosing your own skintone would be great, they did it in HHD and I hope they bring it into the next game. Bringing some curly hair options would be the bomb because it would be nice to look like myself in the game, instead of my next door neighbor Susan. Being able to order a villager to move their ass outta my town would be great. Like you're suppose to be the mayor. You run this joint and yet you don't have the power to tell Velma to get her scraggly ass outta you're own town? I mean it can be similar to the complain about a villager option to Isabelle. She ask why? Just say her house placement is garbage. I kinda like for them to keep that random moving in bs because if you can choose your own house placement, it makes sense for them to as well. Another great feature would to be able to gifts through the mail to another persons town. Lastly, being able to hold more bells and make it easier to give to someone would be bomb; Y'all don't know that struggle of trading until you gotta pay someone 50mil.

There are plenty of other things but I noticed some other people already said em and didn't feel like reiterating someone else. I'm not sure if I did that in here but if I did, sorry y'all.

more skin color options! it bothers me that everyon starts out pale white and the only way you can change is by tanning, which doesn't even last. also, more villager space would be nice, though i do understand the sentiment of having to pick your favorite villagers.

 

[Elov]

I think it would be cute if you could have villager roommates. Smug villagers always tell you how much they want to move in when they visit. So why not actually make it happen? If you had roommates you could have more villagers in your town, while having some live with you like 2-3. They give us such big houses with so much rooms but they're never really used. It would give a whole new incentive to design a room according to that villager and such. And it would be cute seeing them do stuff in your house... Cook food, watch t.v. and go outside like any normal villager of course! And you should only be able to invite them to move in when they have a high enough friendship like when they give you their picture. >w<

 

[Quagsire.]

Choose where villagers move in would be a real life saver!
It'd also be cool if villagers could get jobs around the time, like sometimes you can see them working in the coffee shop, that'd be cool

Bigger towns with increased villager capacity. Maybe even different types of "neighborhoods" within your own town, like a beach-house area and an urban area.
More personalities
More species
More villagers of existing species
More varied dialogue among same-personality animals
More furniture sets/items
Expanded gardening system. Lots more plant species and hybrids and a display in the museum where you can donate them.
More icons other than the AC leaf for easy at-a-glance organization (eg: chair icon, bed, lights, etc)
More PWPs and an increase to villagers suggesting them
More buildings like you get to design in HHD in your town. A school, gym, office, hospital, shops, etc. that you can work in for bells!
More random events/NPC visitors
Have random villagers visit your town and actually walk around rather than just being stuck in a campsite
Waaaaay more spots in your inventory for designs
Changeable exteriors of your house like in HHD
Different room layouts/shapes for houses like in HHD
Furniture arranging touch screen controls like in HHD
More places to visit in multiplayer with more mini-game type stuff. I'm thinking a carnival/theme park would be perfect.
The ability to invite villagers to do things such as go to the theme park, go shopping, fishing, etc.
Implementation of AC amiibo cards! Possibly to unlock furniture or that villager as a visitor to your town
Bring back the Auction House or some type of quick, searchable online selling/trading feature where no one would have to visit your town (like Pokemon's GTS)
And my number 1 wish that we should have already had.... LET US MOVE OUT ANY VILLAGER WE DONT LIKE!

 

[MintySky]

I really want more options as to being a mayor. Like be able to choose where you want characters to move, who you want to move in and be able to move out villagers. I would also like more skin colour options and hair colours.

 

[newleaves]

the city again!! i loved it soo much and the chance to get balloons without
having to find someone who has a 3ds would be pretty neat ε=(｡♡ˇд ˇ♡｡）​

 

[davidlblack]

On April Fools, pitfallsspawn everywhere. And all of your villagers pretend to move away, but they return the next day telling you it was an April Fools joke.

Also, they could return the feature where Resetti pretends to delete your town. When you try to make a new one, Resetti is on the train rather than Rover. He tells you it was all a joke for April Fools, and the two of you go back to your town, with nothing messed up or harmed.

It's cruel but cool

Getting to choose where your villagers move in for the love of god. I hate plot resetting with the fiery passion of a million suns.

 

[crosserkelsey]

If they do create another main AC game (and let's face it, they'd be stupid not to), I would love to see bigger towns, because the towns now are so small and a bit hard to work with, more pocket slots, more convenient ways to move furniture, being able to stack items besides fruit, etc, etc. Would love to see more PWPs added in and be able to put things on paths instead of having to put them around the plaza, train station, etc. More design slots would be nice and I can think of some other stuff as well, but I'm not really sure what all they would add in.

 

[Hulaette]

I would like to be able to have more customization when you create your character.

More choices for the shape of your eyes or no eyes (Gyroid eyes)

Choose the shape of you nose, default, round, square shape, or flat (no nose)

Skin color: pale, peach, beige, tan, brown, dark brown, purple, green, blue, or gyroid skin texture.

The shape of your mouth: Default, straight mouth, frowny mouth, goofy smirk mouth, slightly open mouth with small teeth showing a tiny bit, or thin lips that you may choose to be red, pink, soft baby orange color, or a gyroid mouth hole.

Agreed!! Not much character customization (though I find I'm happy with what I have, but not everyone who plays ACNL is white so there's that). But I think it would be nice to either have more features unlocked at Shampoodle and maybe have a larger Shampoodle, or have a feature where you can edit your character as often as you want. Oh and I think they should bring back the thing of having the catalog in before you upgrade your Nooklings store since the other versions had that........

They will create one, I'm sure that's a given, but it's highly likely to be on NX given the Wii U seems like everyone is pushing them toward ending the poor things life soon, and the team just created Happy Home Designer, and let NDCube do Amiibo Buy, I mean Amiibo Festival.

I like your ideas for the PWP's, but I'd add that they should do like you can do in HHD, and put them side-by-side, image some of the lighted designs we can do if they allowed that!! Of course, first and foremost would be the one giant thing that I really want- a freaking HD version of Animal Crossing! I'd love if the Mario Kart 8 track were similar to an actual town. Yes, the town was rendered, so it was setup unlike actual random towns, but still seeing those little steps to the Re-Tail door, that beach, that glorious beach with the chairs, I can just imagine a villager sunbathing there! What I'd like to see, similar to yours is a larger town, but more animals. The original had a whopping 15, yet every game after that hasn't even been close- 10 is as close as we got! I want the sign posts back too, or at least put a villager's house somewhere like you can in HHD. You know what? Most of what they did in HHD, combine that with New Leaf, upsize it for a television, add more villagers, BOOM! That'd make me super happy!!

 

[Biyaya]

Skin tone options. (I feel like the same method of determining hair and face wouldn't work with determining skin tone though; the game would probably come off sounding racist.)

Uhm. More precision in home organization, like in HHD. Hopefully with 0.5x1 dimensions for the narrower items, like briefcases, instead of taking up 1x1 spaces when it doesn't need to.

More diverse dialogue with villagers, more personalities for villagers, and fox villagers!

Keep the mini games, and maybe add one or two more games that the villagers invite you to play (simple like the hide & seek one). Maybe add in the little NES games to put in your house that was in the GameCube version too.

And fox villagers. Or even a wolf villager with a fox pattern.

Oh! And having more options for jobs (like for Nook, for Brewster, as mayor, etc.)

I could list a bit more, but I won't.

 

[AnnHarry]

It would be awesome, if they added a tiny feature where; the bigger the tree grows, the bigger the town grows and you can have more villagers and stuff!
