>>724554834
That's my birthday! Yay!

Skipped through vid cause in middle of work. Any mention of fixing online connectivity times?

usually an update announcement includes some kind of feature or content included in the update but nintendo knows their ACdrones will cheer for literally any update far more than people will complain about it's lack of substance

>>724554834
Kinda want to get back into it but it's so boring being the God King of the island that can do as he pleases with the soulless peons that inhabit the island.

>>724555076
Not so far in vid but 12 players online for Switch 2 edition instead of 8.

>>724554926
>Guests can borrow hotel outfits
That's so fucking nasty dude, straight off the mannequin? Fucking gross.

>>724554834
Is there still going to be a grand total of 7 villager interactions?

>>724554834
Loli!

The game is purely just a doll house game for women to post on Instagram and stroke their ego with. Animal Crossing is dead.

I put 2100 hours into this and I wasted my time playing this. The only fun I had was playing with /v/

So

>12 player multi

Free update has
>new hotel area which is like a mini happy home decorator that gives you a fuck ton of NMT
>can store 7000 items now

>Nintendo items with consoles that connect to NSO allowing you to play Retro games
>lego collab
>Zelda collab
>splatoon collab

>>724554834
Storing flowers should've been in base game.

>>724555357
At least there's a giant free content update to get you to play again, playing with a bit more power is optional.

I forgot these threads are full of schizos

I wonder how the Switch 2 edition increased player limit works. Are Switch 1 chuds not allowed to join Switch 2 players?

>>724554834

>>724554834
Y'know... I'm starting to get real fuckin sick of Nintendo selling us the same games over and over
These should be free upgrades if you own the original game, I don't see the value in paying extra for the Switch 2 version
It's just greed at this point
I love Nintendo but goddamn they've changed since Iwata passed

So this means a real switch 2 AC is still like 4 years away.

So this is confirmation there's no new AC in development.

>Mineru is a new villager option
Nice

>>724554834

They do have to shit out the Splatoon spinoff first.
Man they are a fast team, they released 3 games last gen and have already updated 2 of those games for Switch 2 and have announced a new Switch 2 game.

>>724555763
Yes.
And they Made Echoes of Wisdom while developing Tears of The Kingdom.
It's confirms nothing

>>724554834
Wait, so let me get this straight. The Switch 2 edition of Animal Crossing doesnt even have the fucking DLC included?

>>724555634

I'd rather have a new Animal Crossing then rehashing the same old one for another decade.

>>724555798
This is probably the best way to do it, let's be real here, the new content update wasn't free for Nintendo to make but the new content is being released for free anyway, the only thing that costs is getting a boost to performance, which while sucks, you're still getting all of the gameplay extras at no additional cost.
I'm honestly tempted to buy it, I played New Horizons for the entire year after it launched and never once changed time or cheated the game, it was peak comfy so maybe I will just buy this update and jump back into it for a few months.

>>724555907
Now that is funny, really should have crammed in the DLC.

It's really depressing that every new feature is just another soulless "decorate this theme"!

There are so many things they could do with this series that they won't bother with because the main audience has become peabrained dollhouse autists

So their plan is to update all games like this slowly for the switch 2 release? I wonder if they'll do that with smash and continue his cycle of life for a year or two.
Also that fucking switch 2 update better be included on the online sub

Not especially surprising, they may consider it a bit too early for a new one, not to mention with how popular NH was they could milk it a bit more like MK8DX though it does also lend credence to the theory they’re the developers for the new tomodatchi game
>>724555763
They only did that to stall while they were working on getting MKW on switch 2. It’s why the DLC has its own separate credits, it was done by a B team

extrapolating from past releases, the next game will require you to grind for bells, materials, and some third thing like friendship points. you will be dripfed one new thing for your house or wardrobe every week.

>>724555810
I miss their Callie and Marie designs, but it does make sense. Are the older Zelda Villagers returning? Ganon is unironically my favorite AC villager because of the sheer concept of him.

>>724555979
This was the most confusing part to me, it's just a lite version of Happy Home Paradise. What the fuck is the point of this?
>>724555907

>Also that fucking switch 2 update better be included on the online sub
anon it's $5, just pay for it
i'm surprised it's that low

well the online shit just seems completely useless
still no minigames
at least the update is free for nintendo switch, i'll try it, especially all the collab stuff
also fuck decoration crap, the lifesim in this game is still dogshit, they really don't care about how boring it is to actually open up the game
>>724555619
yep, pretty much
this shit is WAY too fucking late and now hoyo is already making their own ac with multiplayer minigames
there's also heartopia, animula nook, and another unrevealed lifesim game by hoyo inspired by gravity falls
i still don't think strongly about this update even if it's free because it just adds new shit to collect without addressing the lack of gameplay

>>724556125
>There are so many things they could do with this series
Name 5
for me all that comes to mind is some sort of dating sim-type gameplay. but you have to pair villagers up instead by talking to them and determining which two would share interests, anything else doesn't really expand on the core gameplay

How is the kappn hotel mechanically distinct from the happy home island dlc they already did? Seems like the exact same concept

>>724555982

>>724556134
Never count on Nintendo to do the obvious thing because wind waker/tp HD are still stuck on the Wii U, but a smash update seems like an obvious home run if they are updating games like this. Better online features and a few new characters are all I want

>more decoration slop
yeah ac is dead
just wait for petit planet
i don't play new horizons because there's nothing to do besides shopping and collecting items

Series peaked with New Leaf

Hey Nintendo
How about you make NINTENDO SWITCH 2 games for the NINTENDO SWITCH 2
No one, NOBODY, not a SINGLE SOUL, wanted this.
Make NEW games for your NEW console or kindly FUCK OFF

>>724556205
1 game out of 5 is not a pattern.

>>724556203

They could come up with some kind of dungeon crawling/exploration that makes sense in animal crossing, work on villager interactions (no you don't have to be able to date them), more mini games you can play with your villagers, there is plenty

At least this'll give me the motivation I need to slowly start finishing everything. Though I wonder how much that'll last considering I barely use my Switch 2 as is.

>bulk crafting

I hope they've hidden other qol things like being able to move more than fucking one thing at once and finally being able to move the resident services

>>724556654
We weren't going to get a new game this early anyway, animal crossing works best as a mid cycle release

>>724556532
Let me guess, Mario Kart, DK, and Air Ridr don't count right? 1 company putting out 3 games for the new console and several for the previous console with special updates for the new console, all in half a year just isn't enough. Meanwhile Rockstar puts out 1 game a decade and you suck them off like a vacuum cleaner.

>>724556670
You could only come up with one idea and it fucking sucks.

>>724556684
free for NSO subscribers*

>>724556654
you shouldn't bother waiting for a new game either
imagine how much stuff they are gonna gut in that one and then you are left waiting years wondering if these stupid bitches will even add anything back through updates
4 fucking years for this shit

>>724556072
it absolutely could get an fps bump, most nintendo games have framerate tied to physics and game state but still got fps bumps (scvi, botw, splatoon).
I think keeping the game at 30 was just by design, to preserve its aesthetic.

>>724556747
>1 company putting out 3 games for the new console and several for the previous console with special updates for the new console, all in half a year just isn't enough
Well, five if you want to count that tech demo and drag X drive too.

>>724556753
Alright my next idea is they put you in the game and you tongue my anus but in animal crossing

That's cool, bit why didn't they show this on the Direct last month? Would have made it a bit less of a wet fart

I didn't care for Horizons and wish they would focus on a new game that goes a bit back to the basics

>>724556729
I am guessing you can just not unlock it

>>724556635
Petit Planet is going to be fucking huge, I think. Mihoyo's advertisement budget is going to push it hard on a wider audience than even Genshin, and the prospect of a high-budget (not some cheap indie clone) of an AC game that gets updates every 6 weeks - when NH was pretty much abandoned after its first year - is going to draw in a lot of people. Even if you hate gacha you can't deny Mihoyo is shaping up to be an industry superpower and its own "Nintendo of gacha games." I fully expect either a lawsuit from Nintendo or something half-assed again like NH put out by them in ~2027

>>724556841
They are making a departure from directs with the Nintendo Today app, I expect to see fewer and fewer directs

>>724556635
They could’ve done the update anytime yet they drop it now. But yea, sorry for noticing things. I’ll be sure to jam forks in my eyes next time

i wish they would let this garbage game die and just make a decent one instead

>>724556857
we are never recovering from terraforming slop and decoration slop
even that pokopia game has the same shit
>>724556913
the best thing about petit planet is that it's a live service game meaning you will always have new content every month instead of waiting years for crumbs

>>724556913
it looks too 'anime'
normies aren't gonna play an anime furry game

>>724556951
they're obv pairing it with the switch 2 update, like with eow and splatoon.

>>724555472
Actually shocking they separated all the actual interesting content from the paid update.

So it's fucking nothing basically.

>>724556951
>But yea, sorry for noticing things

>>724557313
it looks like there's at least a quality of life feature to make terraforming automatic by holding the A button and a direction. the characters do a little sidle animation that seems a lot faster than the original.

Decently sized expansion. Bummed out that we will never get a totally new experience on Switch 2 now.

>>724557313
I was thinking the same. A lot of it felt like repurposed happy home shit. I do think that the slumber islands with co-op building is cool though. Anons are gonna make all sorts of fucked up islands

>>724556684
It's concerning how many people are unironically expecting and want DLC from NSO. You know that shit is conditional to your subscription, right? That initial convenience of not having to pay is fucking you over in the long run as you become more dependant on NSO. They will jack the price up to a point where you will no longer want to pay it and your DLC (that you've probably paid for 2 or 3 times by now) is gone.

Just pay the five fucking bucks.
Just pay the 20 bucks.

At the very least you should be keeping an eye on sales for opportunities to buy the DLC during your subscription.

Animal Crossing has out lasted Fortnite. And people were begging it to be live service in 2020. Fortnite is now dead in 2025. Animal Crossing is a live and well without flooding the well with updates.

Nintendo knew better.

That thing about the islands that you can customize freely is good.
The rest is just Nintendo being Nintendo. The Famicom games are behind a paywall, lol. And I didn't even see it through to the end, but I believe the Switch 2 version is also paid, which makes the game cost what, $90 for Switch 2 users?

that's because they share the same dev team, dude. the fact that they're dipping into ac at all at this point is a good sign.

Most excited about the dream island stuff but I think they should’ve added like, 2,000,000 words of extra dialogue. The dialogue for villagers has gotten so repetitive.

i mean that's cool but what do you even do with 12 people on your island

Okay so.... all this means is just that the next Animal Crossing game got pushed back another 3+ years.... There's no way they would do this unless the next one is still far away

So much so that the japs loved what NoA did to the point that they retranslated the localized version back to Japanese with even more features.

>>724558327
it does seem like something they made up in a month
it's just decoration slop that already exists in the game
collab items don't seem that hard to make either, a month is enough with a team that knows how to make that shit

>>724557881

Dream island is basically the only real meat of this update it seems, I liked exploring other dream islands in the 3DS version (liked the spooky villages people made that told a story)
I really don't get the hotel shit though, it seems to be just a lite version of the happy home designer stuff. But I guess they're trying to appeal to designerfags.
Even doing something like just adding a new villager type, new dialogue snippets, would be really nice. Expand musuem, add new fish/bugs/fossils/paintings.

>>724558363
>Umm ACKSHULLY Doubutsu no Mori N64…
The additional dialogue in the NA GameCube release of Animal Crossing went over so well they brought that BACK to Japan for a re-release. This was over 20 years ago. Go fuck yourself, you worthless shit-licker.

The Switch 2 patches are gonna be the Wii U ports of this gen, so they have to space them out to cover the months of no games.

Is it worth getting an old nintendo DS off amazon and new leaf and just picking it back up again? I used to have 7k hours on this when I was a tween

>>724556635
New Leaf's update was pretty clearly done to sell the massive piles of amiibo that weren't sold after amiibo Festival bombed

do japs like this shit? because whenever i see someone on youtube or xitter talking about animal crossing new horizons nowadays they shit on it for being soulless compared to wild world and new leaf

>>724558497
i do really wish they'd have hammered down on adding fun activities again, but new horizons is unfortunately a dollhouse sim. it's almost interesting how far the series has departed from a slow life sim that you take in as it comes, to an omnipotence simulator.
at the very least creative mode with friends looks fun, and there seem to be features they've added that they didn't mention directly, so maybe they did address other concerns like villager dialogue.

>>724558902
Animal Crossing New Horizons is the best selling game of all time in Japan

>>724558860
They'll patch all the slop they needed MonolithSoft to work on but not the actual MonolithSoft deved games. Makes sense.

>>724558942
yeah because of the pandemic, im not asking for sales number but the opinion of the game in 2025

>>724558883
So why did they print new Amiibo cards, exclusively for that update?
I think you're making up "facts" again.

japs are soulless bugs that will buy whatever slop they see

wow, I didn't expect to have a lot of new stuff coming. wasn't creating multiple islands one of the demands players want when the game launched?

>>724554926
The way they narrate it is driving me mad. It's so flat and unmoved.

>>724558840
No one has to push a game specific update for your GPU to run the game better, a company doesn't have to pay someone to change number values and another person to do QA. Companies are not hobbists who would do these things for free.

You could argue that console games should be designed with the expectation that they will be playable on better hardware one day, but that's it.

>>724559842
By not trying to beat the entire game in a week?
Honestly the older games were better for that, because they didn't have such ridiculous bell sinks, so even 10 minutes to run the island, get your fossils, say hi to everyone, etc still felt like actual progress.

Only real meat is the hotel, but it seems like a cool addition. Appreciate them adding economy use to crafting to give you reason to keep doing it to fulfill orders too.

Otherwise it seems like mostly small conveniences and upgrades. Games already good though, so sure. If the upgrade is less than £10 it's a no brainer for me.

Bringing back playable consoles is very funny with it requiring the paid sub that gives you access to them anyway

I actually played everyday for a few weeks a couple months ago and had fun. Was considering keeping it up but fell off. Will wait and do so for this update now.

The DIY recipe system is still going to be fucked, isn't it?
Particularly the part where you can't just share your recipes directly with other players, but instead have to invite players to your island to visit a villager that is in the middle of crafting something.

Also shit like waiting on balloons during events to keep trying for the recipes you're missing.

I hate that this is such a need for me but I really do need the Blue Falcon furniture item back.

As a Genshin fan, I do not think Petit Planet will be able to compete with Animal Crossing as much for many reasons honestly. I think it's the art style and the fact that there will be gacha in Petit Planet, and well, people aren't hugely a fan of gacha games...

>>724562001
nta but I'm assuming you literally spend in-game (or real if you're desperate) currency to roll for the items in the pool of items like a typical gacha character
Worse problem is the FOMO with event/holiday/uber rare limited items and it'll snowball from there if they do that for the usual cosmetics for dress up like that Infinity Nikki shit

It's realism. AC might be cute and filled with talking animals and leaves that turn in to furniture but it's still real. It's still on earth, they still make references to real places, all the bugs and fish are real, the fossils are real, the holidays are real and the huge majority of decorations for both holidays and real life look like something you would actually put in your house. This is what all the AC clones miss on such a fundamental level. They think that because AC has talking animals and some of the furniture items are "magical" that AC is actually a world filled with dragons and monsters and super powers when it's not. Just look at this game, it's sci-fi themed. That's not comfy at all, that's not what makes AC fun. It's the idea that your little town is on some level real and exists in the real world.
