Wishful ideas for Animal Crossing NH Thread

I really want a bunch of new outdoor items. Picnic tables, public grills, more picnic baskets/food/items, a volleyball net. More archways. Particularly flower archways and ones that match existing fences. Decorative raised garden boxes. Flower boxes. Gazebo.

Picnic blankets you can place outside.

I want villagers to have areas and items they prefer. Like jocks congregating more in areas with sports equipment and interacting with that stuff more. Villager behavior being more seasonal, like villagers avoiding the beach in winter and gravitating towards it in summer.

I still would really like to be able to recolor instead of having to trade for items.

Oh, and I have wanted for the longest time high walls that work like fences but only against cliffs. So you could have a brick wall, for instance, instead of a cliff face showing.

I have also mentioned a few times, but don't think it will happen, I want the ability to decorate by month and have the game put away items at the end of the month and put them back up when that month rolls around again. I would love so much I'd I could decorate for Halloween once and my town would put the decorations back up for me every October and put them away in November. This should have its own storage and should allow you to store flowers and have them automatically put away and put back out. Imagine being able to have monthly color schemes or automatically having no flowers in winter!

Storage with different pages instead of pre-defined categories. For clothing to be stored separately from house inventory entirely and to be accessed only from dressers. A way to access house storage outside the house.

Transparency in pro designs. A pro+ options that let's you draw specular maps for custom clothing so you can define how shiny parts of the pattern should be.

I would also like an indicator of a villager's location to appear on my map when I select their portrait.
 
there's so much i want brought back or added:

- literally add every furniture item from HHD!
everyone talks about the froggy chair but nobody seems to want that eggplant cow 😂
i want the eggplant cow...

- it's been said before but, either the hourly music from WW/CF and NL or the ability to turn music off all together because NH music is so bad

-bring back old npc's and ALL removed villagers (nintendo, sanrio, super old villagers etc)

- put rugs outside

- more picnic items

- pocket camp furniture & accessories (EARRINGS!)

- and most of all, make all furniture items just 1 item u can customise
i'm so annoyed of wanting a white basket but my shop only sells a brown basket so i gotta go looking everywhere online
just an example, i don't actually need a basket lol
 
Can I just say New Leaf?
Like everything NL had other than like the grass wearing.

I want the high street back with all the different shops and NPCs.
I want Tortimors island with the mini games and online services.
RESETTII!
Can we please get the police office back with Copper and Booker?
How about the post office with Pelly and Phylis?
And of course where the heck is Brewster?!

Can we go back to our tools not breaking every 5 god damn minutes.
Or not having items colour locked to our islands.
Can we please move flowers without having to use the shovel!
And can we please get more furniture sets!

Can we get better hourly music?
Or for the villagers not to repeat the same bit of dialogue 20x a day.

Nintendo had such a good foundation with NL, CF, WW and the original game that I’m not sure, just how exactly, they managed to mess up New Horizons so badly.

I think they didn't add those hundreds of items because it would have made NH a great game, and they didn't want it to be that great that Pocket Camp players might abandon the real cash cow, for NH, so we were left with this empty shell of a game, that will never reach it's full potential.

A real shame.
I never looked at it like this but you’re probable right.:eek:

Oh my gosh this would be such an amazing thing to have! I love this idea.

Among the things I miss from NL I think the one that bothers me most is not being able to access my storage from anywhere other than my house. The Resident Services building would be ideal, or even the airport. I miss having the lockers and having to run back home to see what I have in inventory.

Yeah I always wondered about that to. And when I heard talk about NH and PC being back to back and the mobile game wouldn't be stopping updates, I had/have a sneaking suspicion that could be the case.
 
There‘s a thread about this very same thing just on page 2 of the forum.

True, this type of thread comes up so often. But I feel like the fact that these conversations are as prevalent as they are is a telltale sign.
 
Extra shops that you travel to would be great. It could be like the Tortimer's island from New Leaf so you could travel there with your friends, or there would be a version of it to meet with random people. It could be where you went to play mini-games.
 
My main thing I would want would be to put rugs outside, select multiple things to put in the cart at Ables, and be able to have a buy max button on the customization kits like you can with turnips.

For my bigger, wilder, and personal this-is-what-I-would-do-if-I-made-AC thoughts I would bring back Re-Tail, Leif's shop, the Roost (unsure if stand-alone building or in the museum because I can see cozy perks for both), bring back Katrina as a traveler, Kapp'n back, Katie comes back as a traveler since it is so easy to visit people now, Shrunk to come back to tell jokes on off days on the Roost, Gracie to come back and sell super expensive furniture, and the HHA to move in and let you re-arrange your villagers homes using only what they have in their inventory (including rugs, wallpaper, and flooring),
 
I’d love to see...

More furniture sets.

The big outdoor items that the villagers played on from pocket camp.

And that floor tiles were locked outside of construction mode.... so I can’t accidentally erase floor tiles.
 
I want fun tree themed furniture. You get them from shaking trees. You still get regular items, but sometimes luck out and get unorderable tree furniture. Lol.

I want the same with balloons, but better looking than New Leafs balloon set.

I wish for cultural events with stuff to do and new NPCs or just have Isabell or Gulliver take control of the event lol. I thought about this with Día de Muertos/Day of The Dead and many others.
 
I think it would be nice if Sable would give us more patterns. Some Holiday and seasonal ones would be cool. Winter, festive, valentines, shamrock , easter, Halloween, fall, spring, etc.

I would also be thrilled if they have us more pattern space.
 
With Sanrio villagers possibly returning, I was kinda hoping that other existing amiibos should add more new villagers.

In New Leaf, we had 3 Splatoon (Inkwell, Cece, Viche) and 4 Legend of Zelda (Wolf Link, Medii, Epona, Ganon) villagers. I wish they would expand that to other franchises.
 
I miss Tortimer's Island and the Cafe (like everyone else)

Yes, we already have an island (that we live on- as well as mystery islands)- but Tortimer's Island was sooo much more exciting! I loved how there was exclusive bugs and how you could earn BANK when you played at night. I also miss Kappn's songs, the exclusive shop items, and Club Tortimer. The tours were really fun too.

Also- I want the ability to change game music. Like, in the settings menu, there can be a music & sfx option, and from there, you could change which game's soundtrack you want- GCN, WW, City Folk, and NL.
 
time to ramble!! >:3c

obvious/most others' want these too:
-i want the cafe back!!! put it in the museum pls!
-i want something tortimer island again. that was one of my favorite parts of new leaf
-give us back all the furniture from previous games
-sanrio villagers pls (i want TOBY) and their furniture
-also the nintendo villagers
-more custom design slots??
-bulk buying clothes pls
-pocket camp items!!!

my own ideas:
-i'd love more villagers interactions!! i want to be able to hug my villagers, hold hands, etc. cottonsprout on twitter has alot of good ideas similar to this!!
-i'd also like more to do with villagers! let us have picnics or sleepovers (not sure how that one would work), let us have random visits again, but with a better system (aka you can tell them no i'm busy), etc. i miss hide n seek.
-diagonal waterfalls pls
-let me at least place items on the top cliff, i get a limit to how high they can get, but at least let me put stuff up there!
-baking!! i want to make my villagers food!
-gardening. i know we have flowers and pumpkins, but i need MORE
