I guess it's a thing now? This is pretty shameless (but not gonna lie some of these features look neat).

I don't like how much bigger the animals are to you, but it's always nice to have something similar pop up since the other ones(Magician's Quest, that Disney one) are dead.

They’re all dead now, OP. You killed them with neglect
As someone who literally just booted up an Animal Crossing GC file two weeks back and had the villagers say I hadn't been around in 140 months, they sure as hell didn't die of neglect unless those extra few years matter :v:

So I tried out Pocket Camp for the first time yesterday, figuring it can't be all that bad right?

It's goddamn awful. I'm really tempted to charge up my 3DS for the first time in years and get back into New Leaf a bit before the new game launches. Gonna be so many weeds. :ohdear:

The Gamecube version is still my favourite. Paid off THREE houses, filled out the museum, got every kind of fruit, got every NES game, every KK Slider song, every gyroid. I've never felt so accomplished in a game since. Sorry I haven't visited in like... 15 years, Mooville.

yeah, i vastly prefer its acre-based camera system to the rolling world thing subsequent versions have done, i like the villagers' personalities more, it's still the game with the largest town size and most villagers in your village at once. and also, the soundtrack is far and away the best in the series, which given the kind of game animal crossing is, that's a really important factor.

i still play my village i've had since 2003. second one i made, the first i made before the game came out since you could rent it from blockbuster 2 weeks before launch, and i used the first town as a learning experience and then created the second town on the memory card that came with the game. 3 level, all houses paid off, all fish and bugs caught on all 4 characters, and i'm about 90% done filling out the catalog on my main character. i played it daily for 5 months straight last year.

i fuckin love animal crossing. i hope new horizins is awesome.

I was just wondering the other day why there isn't an Animal Crossing clone on any other platform, and here we are. Going to wishlist this, but since it's being developed by literally one person, I am going to wait until it's fully finished before buying.

Whoa, I knew New Leaf was smaller being on the 3DS but I didn't know the GCN version was the biggest. I never played City Folk so I just assumed it was bigger. Was City Folk just a souped up Wild World port or something?

Agreed on the latter tho, I can't loving wait to dig into New Horizons.

animal crossing was 30 acres, compared with city folk's 25. new leaf is 20.

calling city folk a souped-up wild world isn't totally inaccurate, i mean it even shares the exact same soundtrack. but, it did enough to differentiate itself i guess. either way i think both it and wild world were vastly inferior to the original and new leaf, i really could not get into wild world at all and i couldn't really stick with city folk much either.

I know that’s what it means but it would be :krad: if they took a page from Splatoon 2 and made some kind of Nook Phone app. Live Stalk Market prices, app based online store, calendar to see in game events and visits setup for villager visits etc.

This video talks about some of the possible phone app uses. I was wondering how qr code patterns were going to work with no camera on the Switch, your phone has one! So it will probably be a catalog on the phone, like Splatoons, but with official and user created designs. Maybe we can preview the outfits on our Villager in the app.

Maybe GPS on the phone will allow location bonuses, like the 7-11 ones in Japan? I think that's how the Pokemon Pass app works. Pain in the rear end for some people I'm sure, but I'm kind of hyped for all the weird interactive poo poo they could do.
