Just like in Animal Crossing: New Leaf, some little DLC freebies will likely become increasingly common in Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer. It's a little way to keep players coming back, and in a game focused on nothing but decorating it seems inevitable that the furniture range will be expanded with special items.
Some of those items could be, well, promotional retail stands. French site Nintendoactu - thanks, Tiny Cartridge - spotted a whole load of items in a room uploaded to the Happy Home Network, though that room and a related YouTube video have apparently disappeared since then. Assuming someone in Nintendo was playing on a particular copy and didn't realise what they were doing - we don't think these are elaborate fakes - it looks like some cool items are on the way; that's assuming the brief is "design me my own Nintendo World Store".
A likelihood is that these could be future extras that'll be delivered via SpotPass, but only time will tell. And hey, check out the stock levels on that amiibo stand!
If you want to design the cutest Nintendo-only game store in the world, with some neat retro units thrown in, then this furniture could be all you need.

I love to live there due to the ease of getting amiibo.
Those are awesome hoping they put them in new leaf to
I am sure we will get this after joining a challenge or a special design mission.
Maybe have an update with the ability to make your own house and new items? That would be awesome!
So that's who's been buying all of the rare amiibos...
wait a Wii U?
Animal Crossing U confirmed! /joking
those do look cool tho.
Wow these items are so awesome!
@GamePerson19
Funny, though everyone outside of North America has ample supply.
Though to be fair North American retailers don't like overstocking toys to life products, so they cautiously order them.
This DLC is making me want this game.... NINTENDO DON'T MAKE ME BUY THIS GAME!!
Wow, the attention to detail here is incredible. You can actually distinguish the games they have on display. I can make out Pikmin 3, Mario Party 10, and Mario Kart 8 on the Wii U display, and I can see Majora's Mask 3D and Xenoblade Chronicles 3D on the 3DS display.
EDIT: I can also see Xenoblade Chronicles X on the Wii U display as well.
SECOND EDIT: And Splatoon!
Jokes about a fully stocked amiibo shelf? For the last 2/3 months anytime I have been in a GAME store the shelves have looked like that and there have been some pretty 'rare' ones mixed in aswell a lot of the time.
I see Nintendogs and Pilot wings resort, and the third one could possibly be tomodachi life but I'm not sure.
Seeing new furniture like these just makes me crave the next Animal Crossing game even more.
I'd forgotten how annoying Marshal is with his little scowl.
I look forward to some of the new features of Happy Home making it into the next AC proper (greater control over tabletop items; front yards; squeezing past furniture), but I have to admit I haven't been back to the game since day two. Is it because of the game itself or because I'm solely focused on Super Mario Maker? Dunno.
what the hell is wrong with DK face !
@Faruko It's actually a villager named Louie. I don't think he was in New Leaf.
@Totaldude911 @brewsky The attention is pretty great and it's fun guessing which games are on display. Ones like MM3D, both Xenoblade titles, Mario Party 10(you can make out Bowser's Face), and Mario Kart really stick out.
Is the third one from the left for 3DS games Fantasy Life? The color scheme seems to match up.
Pretty neat, but I got to say, DK looks hilarious
@llamareborn The stock's a lot worse in North America. As someone living in the United States, there were a lot of amiibo I'd never even seen in person until the recent massive restock at Best Buy. Before then, the only amiibo I'd ever find were the same old Mario, Luigi, Bowser, Peach, Zelda, Pikachu, and Diddy Kong, with a few other uncommon amiibo tossed in.
Holy crap @ the Animal Crossing items. I wish those were in New Leaf but then EVERYONE would have had a Nintendo store room just like so many.
/squinting/ are those real games too!? Pikmin 3, Mario Kart 8, maybe Wonderful 101 for WiiU and then Majora's Mask & Xenoblade 3D on the 3DS side? It almost looks like Darksiders II for WiiU on there too haha
This is real by the way, those items are included in a sprite sheet ripped from the game and I saw it a week ago already.
What I'm interested in however is the stand that looks like a mobile phone but with a 2DS type screen. Is that just a display stand for 3DS games or could it be something more? A hint towards NX? I doubt the latter since it would be too early though but I love to speculate.
I also hope that these won't be GAME exclusive since I don't live in the UK (nor are there any GAME stores in my country) and I haven't been able to get Homepass work in a way that would let me do the GAME exclusive design challenge.
Oh, it is just a 3DS game display stand. I just noticed the logo. Cool stuff.
Pretty nifty. I like it!
But it is actually that easy to get Amiibo's here, shelves are always fully stocked
To be fair, amiibo stock has improved. My local toy store now has all the latest amiibo in stock, and that hasn't happened in a long time. At least online here in the Netherlands, the new amiibo are still common and available for the standard price.
But these items look nice for the Nintendo fans. If I ever get this game, I look forward to using these items.
In before virtual Villager amiibo is still unicorn in Animal Crossing game.
@Bananaman678 Because you can't make your own house in Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer already.
