Reggie Fils-Aimé might have left Nintendo last March, but that hasn't stopped the company's former American president from playing all of the latest releases. If you follow him or Twitter or have seen any of our existing posts here on the site, you'll know the game he's been spending the most time with lately is Animal Crossing: New Horizons.
He's shared his own views - stating how he would "never" time travel and would like to see more Star Fragments. While we've seen screenshots of his island, he hasn't done a proper tour of it yet. You might recall how he did one for New Leaf several years ago, so will he follow this up in New Horizons?
In an interview with The Washington Post recently, it was revealed how Reggie hadn't really bothered with terraforming yet until he gets the right mix of villagers, and that he wouldn't be showing off his island to the public until he thought it was up to scratch:
When I feel it’s up to public review, I’ll do some sort of reveal of my island
Earlier this month, Reggie joined the board of directors of the children's entertainment and toy company, Spin Master Corp. Since retiring from his role, he's also part of GameStop's board of directors, Cornell University as a Leader in Residence, and even returned to The Game Awards as a presenter.

His body wasn't ready yet.
This is Reggie, if he shows a lame island, people will never let him forget it. Of course he wants to wait till he is ready.
On another note, I totally agree about the star bits. Celeste was on my island yesterday night, but I didn't even see a singe shooting start while I played. :/
What if it's nothing to do with his island? What if.. what if 𝘰𝘶𝘳 bodies aren't ready? 😳
If anyone can save the cesspool that is GameStop, it's the Reginator.
Not News. Clearly Random content.
He is waiting til he has a villager of every gender so as not to offend anyone on Twitter. Not sure how he’s gonna get all 300 on one island though...
He just wants to wait until he is negotiating his next directorship, hoping the added press will up his money!!! Greedy man
Fils-Aimé Direct confirmed.
Can anybody tell me how to get rid of the DIY cards you don’t want, especially the Easter Eggs. Please!
"My island isn't ready"

@Alaninho it's ridiculous isn't it
@Booielou My guess is we're supposed to sell them to the Rat Bros at Nook's Cranny for 200 bells a piece. Or maybe it was 120 bells, I forget. Not sure what to do if you don't have Nook's Cranny yet.
Also, I guess Nintneod made them for sharing like Pokemon in online Pokemon trading sessions, and never thought about people like me who don't have NO so can't play online.
Here's what I do w/ mine. I call it "The Riddle of the Sphinx Children's Play Area" outside of my museum. Has over 50 now.
I'm also not sure what to do w/ the 2 dozen each of cans, shoes, and tires I have. I made a bunch a recipes and the wall and floor and sold them but none of that is worth the effort. So I have them all in storage waiting for a use.
Reggie: Still our primary source of Nintendo news.
@Booielou you need to either trade them/gift them to someone or sell them at your shop.
@Booielou I just sell them.
@chocolate_supra our bodies can never be ready for our lord and saviour Reggie.
I like his approach, he just wants to have fun with the game. If it isn't fun, why bother?
@Alaninho well played indeed, sir
Look it's very cute that people think he's even playing this but I doubt he is.
If anything he has a niece or someone doing it all for him so he could show it off.
People are starting to creep out of lock down and claw back bits of their lives. Just my opinion.
How does one get the DIY cards you don’t want from the DIY stump to your pocket to go sell at thrCranny?
To Razer, I’m 74 years old and new to the switch, so I’m starting this game new. I do have 4 3DSL games going with 4 different towns of New Leaf .
I’m also OCD so those DIY cards I don’t want are making me crazy.
@Booielou It's just check the box, select it and confirm. "If" you want the person you message get notified, put a "@" before the name or, instead, click into "reply" above the comment of the person and the answer will begin with @ and the name. It's easier to the person know which was messaged. But to people which want only offend others maybe is better don't use.
