Thanks to RidleySlayer for the tip!
CRAP! I thought this was going to be about a Switch Animal Crossing game. I sure hope Nintendo is hard at work on one for the Switch.
I thought so too. My heart was racing when I saw this.
Me too lol, I need a new AC game!
… at the same time though, this is the only mobile game I was looking forward to above all other mobile titles.
I hope it can be played offline. :/
As great as that would, I doubt we’ll be able to play it offline.
Animal crossing mobile game.
Are you happy now?
To me there is no difference. The main direct is on december
Where your u get that info from wouldn’t the next direct be January or February since it will focus on spring titles and a little bit of summer, there is a certain chance it could be December but my heart is pointing towards January though
No.
It’s better doing a direct on december where they give us more hype for the news about the games and the system.
I’m only mention janauary because it seems like a dry month and we have many games releasing next year along with new ones we haven’t heard that need dates, December is pack isn’t it I think I only plan on buying games this month and next month after that I’m through, but you may be right
We can just wait and see what Nintendo will give to us.
Yes
Welp this direct is worthless to me being as I am a Windows Phone user. I WAS hoping for an announcement for Animal Crossing [Switch] ;-; I have my Mario Odyssey Switch pre-ordered, so I was hoping for some good news in regards to Animal Crossing. Ah well. I guess I just have to wait even longer and play ACWW on my laptop to get my fill of Animal Crossing for the time being.
Damn, even Bill Gates left WP for Android.
*Yawn* Where’s the Switch version? And it better fucking not be another Mario Party/Amiibo copout and lock more content behind those damn plastic toys.
Get ready, Nintendo’s about to kill a beloved game series.
Not sure why you’re saying that. Their mobile games haven’t killed any franchises as far as I’m aware.
Eh, I personally don’t care for the mobile front. As a huge fan of the AC games, I just feel it should get the proper treatment it deserves, and it’s been a long while now since a main line series title was put out. Maybe I was a little harsh, it would just be nice to see a large, heavily expanded upon take of AC again. I want some serious depth though, so idk.
I’m sure they’re working on a main AC game for the Switch, since if I remember right, DeNA (I think that’s their name) is developing all these mobile games. I have a feeling next year we’ll get some news maybe around E3 next year.
We’ll see I suppose. I guess also I feel that a Animal Crossing game for Switch could be a big hit with it’s portability. Would have helped push some systems.
If anything this might increase the fanbase and increase hype for a new title.
The Animal Crossing characters are, simply, the low level forms of Digimon
I thought this was for the Switch… :(
Finally! I’ve been dying for this game to be announced and released! Next should be a Switch game to keep the hype going! C’mon Nintendo!
Fire Emblem Heroes was bad. I don’t want to think about the microtransactions with this one.
Soon we’ll be giving Tom Nook our actual money to pay off debts for our houses.
Depends if it’s like Mario Run.
And Heroes I didn’t spend anything and had everything and a whole lot more. Not like Kingdom Hearts Union X which screams for your wallet endlessly.
I’m not sure why you think that FE heroes was bad. I mean there are a few problems w/ it (such as the bloated 5star only pool) but they update so often and give out enough free orb opportunities that I haven’t heard any real complaints. I’m hoping that this AC game follows their example honestly.
I still enjoy today for play Fire Emblem Heroes. But this….. I’m not gonna play it.
Only the Mobile game? Does that mean they won’t go into the promised cross over content? I was really hoping for at least a confirmation of Animal Crossing Switch (I wonder what they would call it?)
||You silly humans, do you cattle pawns really think High Command would announce a real Animal Crossing weapon the same week Super Mario Odyssey will be unleashed?…||

No but I hope they will not announce an Animal Crossing weapon in a direct where will be a Metroid Prime 4 video.
||Highly unlikely, Metroid will get its own time…||
I completely forgot they were making an Animal Crossing mobile game. lol
Any Directs before the middle of November are shit & should thusly be ignored. Unless you like mobile crap. Anyway, you’re welcome.
I was about to dismiss this article since I don’t care for AC. But glad I didn’t as I can finally try out AC on mobile, of which I forgot was coming out.
