Though, I met some robot octopus today and I'm not sure what that dude's deal is yet, they might also be cool.

Ah Cephalobot. I used to have him in my town a few years ago but he moved out.

I love the Animal Crossing games and was devastated that the Switch game was abandoned after only a year. There is so much that was done in the Wii, 3DS and even the mobile game that could have been adapted to keep people interested and engaged.

I feel like the online black market ruined the game and Nintendo decided to just cut their losses and give up.

I'm not sure if it's directly linked but I hate scalpers.

i got about a 1,000 hours in new horizons. they definitely took out stuff from previous games and added them in with new updates. swimming was built into new leaf. the summer update added that to new horizons. when they did the mario update, i was hoping for more stuff like zelda and pikmin items and outfits.
nope.
just some basic mario stuff.
wild world had an arwing and the master sword buyable from nook's shop.

Oh I see, well that's unfortunate

yeah. the new stuff like island terraforming was fun. you could make rivers and lakes and cliffs. my house sits at the top and back of the island. got some praise from how i decorated my island and house from family members.
it's just an instance of nintendo having something and not trying to get it to reach its full potential.

i get addicted to AC games when they first get release, logging hours upon hours in. Then I will suddenly lose interest in it :(

There was a lot of fruit missing in New Horizons as well & I don't understand why they stopped at making Timmy & Tommy's store being able to get upgraded any farther then what it did.

New Leaf did have those fortune cookies or whatever they were that you could get a random Nintendo item from the in Timmy & Tommy's shop.

i played gcn, ds and then new horizons. i wasn't aware of new fruit being added, but i'm not surprised. going by that and the unnecessary patch for totk, it seems like someone or a group of people at nintendo want to more or less tell you how to have fun. "you will have five types of fruit and you will like it, and no duplicating diamonds using loading zones. now, eat the squid ink pizza and hasty fried shrooms."

It's an island that you get to have in the game, so why Nintendo didn't add more tropical fruit is a mystery.

The gyroids in New Horizons were also not the same and the older ones other then the one lonely Brewstoid gyroid came back. I was hoping to have the Lullaboid or the Bowtoid gyroids in my house within the game.

i don't have an explanation for you.
it's nintendo.
they just do what they want to.
it's their best strength, and best weakness.

I know, I was just saying since New Horizons has you own your own island, it would make you think Nintendo would've had more tropical fruits to make it feel more island like.

Absolutely, that and gimmicks.

well, considering when the game came out; they may have had to cut their plans short. maybe they will be included in the next game.

It’s really cute how some of them use reading glasses :D

 

[trickybus]

Did anyone else have villagers that acted out-of-pocket? The way I understood things, New Leaf villagers could only show up to your house when invited. They approached you to ask, you set a date, and then they'd show up outside your house for the tour.

Wolf Link was already on thin ice for the OOC flirting but then bro had to escalate shit by showing up unannounced and already in my house.

Dude is shifty af

oh! i didn't even notice the glasses. i meant more of the style of her hair. only one character besides mine wears any sort of eyewear, and it's usually sunglasses.

I think this is the only way she’s ever looked since she’s new for NH, so I didn’t know what you meant by new hair ?

My Audie wears sunglasses on her forehead all the time, only time I’ve ever seen that as a sort of default look!

 

[MasterEn]

this is the shino i was referring to.
