Photos with Animal Crossing - Download Code Giveaway

With Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer being one of the major 3DS retail releases of the year, Nintendo has been keen to get the franchise back onto the agenda. In the UK the company has been heavily promoting free 3DS app Photos with Animal Crossing, distributing it at Hyper Japan in London, on its national shopping centre tour and most recently to some lucky gamers on its Nintendo mailing list.

If you're in the UK/Ireland and don't yet have one, though, we're here to make those storm clouds go away. Nintendo UK's given us plenty of codes to give away, and the details you need are below.

About 'Photos with Animal Crossing':

Photos with Animal Crossing is a free limited-release download, just like Photos with Mario before it.

An AR app for the 3DS, it allows you to snap pics with some of your favourite animals. It's the same basic concept as the AR cards you receive free with your system, most directly familiar with the previous limited-distribution Photos With Mario app. In this case, however, you need to print out the image below to scan the relevant cards.
