What is your wish lists for Animal Crossing Switch?

[ForgottenT]

So hey everyone.
Recently I've been watching a lot of videos about what people want to see in Animal Crossing Switch, some ideas I like, and some I dislike.
But what do you guys want to see in the next installment?

Here's my list.

I just want way bigger multilayered villages, bigger houses, both inside, and outside, and remove the loading screen when entering houses.

Give the villagers yards with stuff in em, and give the players yards as well, and get another section in the shops for outdoor furniture.

Biomes, when you start the game just like there's random town layouts let Rover ask where the village is, like in the mountains, near the beach, in a glade etc.

More public works ofc, and the limit should be way higher, I reached it in my main town before I even considered it done, making it so that my town never got 100% completed imo.

I know people want the ability to decide where villagers can place their houses, but instead I think they should make it so that the villager that wants to move in wanders around the village the day before the plot appears, in that day you can talk to the villager, and "help" them decide where to put their house, if you do not they'll pick a random spot, it'll give people more reason to play everyday to make sure they don't miss it, and also not make it too easy, and dictatorish compared to just straight up decide the only spaces they can move in, after all Animal Crossing is a life simulation first, before it's a creative game, and what makes your town special is that you put in the effort, and fight against the rules, if there's no rules there's no effort, and therefore no villages will be special.

My biggest wish is a way to redecorate villager's homes. Need some sort of system to fix the nightmares they eventually become.

I want Tortimer island again

If you give them furniture they'll replace, and put it in their houses.
Although I guess they could add the HHD idea to the game, and allow you to get a certificate training, which would make your villagers randomly trigger an event to let you furnish their houses with all the furniture they own, from shopping, presents, trading etc.
Basically keep a hidden storage for all villagers, and everything they gain will be kept there, and you'd be able to use them to decorate their house in that event.

Here are my ideas.

A town like how it was in the GC. 5 numbers and 6 letters:
In New Leaf, we have 5 horizontal acres, but only 4 vertical acres. GC has 5 horizontal acres and 6 vertical acres. We certainly need that back.

Make your own map:
Here's how I think you can do this. Rover will forget to bring preset maps on his trip with you, so he tells you in detail what it looks like. This is where you create your own map, and meet up with a new special NPC that you'll meet later in the game to give you a tutorial on how to create a map.

More part-time jobs:
In New Leaf, you got to take a part-time job in the Roost Cafe. However, in AC Switch, you can have more part-time jobs. You can sell clothing in the Able Sisters, (Not the way you could do it in Wild World/City Folk) be a part-time home designer in Nook's Homes and choose where a new villager's house will be and design the exterior and interior house. You can even choose how big you want the interior room to be, but not the exterior. You can have more part-time jobs other than what I suggested.

Run your own mall:
The mainstreet no longer exists in AC Switch, now it is located at the boardwalk on the beach. (I'll talk more about this)
In the boardwalk resides a mall, which is empty and very poor. The only stores open are what the main stores you unlock at the start of when you make a new town in New Leaf's mainstreet.
As you keep buying stuff in there, they'll raise enough money to build new stores. And when you've unlocked certain stores, you can decorate your own mall with colors and pwp like things. And just like Happy Home Designer, you can make your own stores that your villagers, in town or not (Special villagers can appear in your stores as well) can enjoy.
You can even have OK Motors in the mall as well. They've evolved from camper to racer, they act as those people at pit stops. What they can do is import your character as a racer on Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and many more! (You can do so with your mii, so i don't see why not your AC player)
You can decorate your mall however you want it.

A Boardwalk instead of mainstreet, and a new way to meet random online people:
The boardwalk is a replacement of the mainstreet, now it is a horizontal boardwalk, with many stores and attractions open. You can even go to an interactive beach where you can fish, swim or just plain relax.
What else besides all that, is a 24/7 carnival. It is a mix of tortimer island, club tortimer and amiibo festival. You can choose to either go alone or with others. Unlike club tortimer, you can actually get kicked out for begging, being rude, saying bad words, etc. If you ever wanted to add someone as a friend, there is now a button to do so. And unlike amiibo festival, its not boring. You can actually walk in the carnival, play a remix of amiibo festival and island tour minigames and new minigames too. You earn carnival tokens each time you play a game, and earn carnival exclusive furniture, clothing and holdables too. This will be a great way to make the longevity of online gameplay longer, because club tortimer is boring nowadays.

Those are my ideas.

*Choose villager house plot locations
*Customize villagers homes HHD style
*Dress up villagers with clothes, hats and accessories
*amiibo card support similar to New Leaf
*Redd, Pascal, Katie, Katrina and Sable etc amiibo figures

- upgraded graphics! nothing too drastic, just something similar to the mario kart course.
- more pwps and a better system for placing them
- choosing where villagers move in
- multilayered town / bigger town

Indeed, the Mario kart course is gorgeous, would love graphics like those, I agree with all your points

 

[Paperboy012305]

I have to disagree with AC Switch looking like the Mario Kart 8 Course. Animal Crossing graphics are supposed to look cartoony, the MK8 one looks realistic and would look really out of place if implemented in the next installment. If anything, it’ll look like Pocket Camp’s graphics.

i just really want there to a new feature in the post office where you can transfer bells/items to other player's towns. giving bells to people is way harder than it should be tbh. i do kinda hope that they don't push the new game towards being very online-oriented (as in, they push you to interact with players and stuff more than in ac:nl), but with their new paid service, it seems pretty likely. y'know, because nintendo's so poor, they just really need that extra money! *sweats nervously and tries to ignore Nintendo laughing evilly as they count the millions they've made off of pocket camp's fortune cookies*

I think they should just add the credit cards, so that you can put as much money on it as you want, and drop it, or send it in a mail to other players, I also don't want them to push online too far either, I know a lot of people want online "lobbies" Personally I don't like the idea.

 

[Sakura625]

I'd mostly like..
-More, and more different variations of public works projects
-More maps in general; I find myself resetting for "the perfect map" too often when starting a new game
-A better system for placing down public works projects; similar to HHD, where you can place down projects by hand and look around the area you put it in
-Ability to change or select your natural skin color without a tan
-Ability to change what eyes you have/what face you have
-Definitely more, and more diverse dialogue; all of the villagers in New-Leaf seemingly repeat the same lines over and over again
-"Ruder" villagers; all of the villagers in New-Leaf tend to be overly nice to you
-More evident villager relationships ^^, when the villagers were more rude, it was much more rewarding to befriend them and see them warm up to you

 

[ForgottenT]

Oh yeah I'd also like to have different doors/openings for inside the house, and be able to decide where they go, it's kinda annoying having these huge holes, especially the main room with giant gaping holes on every side.

...I thought AC already did that. They occasionally mention having an item I gave to them a long time ago that isn't in their house (or they sell it to re-tail).

Wether they actually have a hidden storage, or the game just randomly triggers a random item they suddenly posses.

As cool as a lot of the requests to "Fully customize [x] or [y]", adding features like that eventually pile up and take this game from being a laid back trip to another life suddenly becomes a game about micro managing every little aspect of a town full of furries, and that to me removes the essence of the series.

My own personal wishlist is:

- Complete camera control. No more of that rolling log/overhead stuff that was done early on as means of getting past a weak console's limitations. The power is there now, let's take Animal Crossing to a new level.

- More weather effects: Blowing leaves in the autumn. Reflective puddles after rainfall that you can splash through. Wind with varying levels of power and gusts. This opens the door for strong winds during thunderstorms that can damage fruit trees and hurricanes, which can destroy trees or even PWPs

Just imagine a night of strong wind and heavy snow! The swirling snowflakes against the starry night sky! Wind direction and strength could be determined by a windmill or smaller, similar PWPs upon interaction.

- A photo mode like in Mario Odyssey so that we can take some nicer screenshots without the HUD and whatnot.

I just thought of something else, I’d like them to add a transparent layer to QR codes, and greatly increase the amount each character can hold.

 

[MelbaBear]

I really hope we get a better way of making and laying paths instead of using QR codes on the ground. And the villagers would acknowledge them, etc!

With how big the whole custom paths thing blew up in New Leaf, it wouldn't surprise me in the least if they gave us the ability to design paths that are more than just patterns thrown onto the ground.

I miss Gullivers UFO haha… and Cornimer, Yay Day and La-Di-Day
