Ever wanted the worlds of Animal Crossing: New Horizons and The Simpsons to collide? No? Well tough, because it's happening anyway.
Using a wonderful variety of in-game character animations, locations and items, the folks at YouTube channel Great-Bit Arcade have put together this recreation of the cartoon's iconic opening sequence. Not everything you see is recreated in-game - characters don't really have cars or skateboards, of course - but some of the character reactions are spot on and there's a nice surprise waiting for you at the end.
We've seen several wonderful video attempts over the past few months, all using villagers and player characters to wonderful effect. If you want to see some more, check out this expert recreation of a scene from Parks and Recreation, or this video which reimagines the game as a horror movie.
Thank goodness Nintendo brought back the ability to remove the game's UI for lovely, clean video opportunities, huh?

Call me Debbie Downer but... kinda loses its appeal if they're not doing it all in-game.
Man...why DONT they have skateboards in AC?
The biggest flaw with Animal Crossing and it's centralized population is no monorail.
@gcunit Debbie Downer
Looks like Marge Simpson hasn't visited a salon since the pandemic...what happened there? 😅
Anyone know what item those massive grey pipes are at 0:08?
@Divinebovine They wouldn't let us ride them even if they did. 😤 I wish the items were much more interactive and we could use the bikes etc.
I found some Spongebob episodes recreation, Married Life by Up Disney Pixar, BSB singing from Beverly 99, Toxic by Britney Spears, etc from Youtube.
@WoomyNNYes Oh I could give you an answer as to why, but the only ones who'd understand it would be you and me. And that includes the article's author.
The real star of the video is Tim Follin's music at the end!
@AlexOlney Thank you Lyle Lanley!
@Divinebovine skateboards might be too extreme I would also want a halfpipe or quarterpipe.
The best animal crossing recreation is the attack on Titan opening. Look ot up it's amazing lol
My kids showed this to me the other day. They have some other good ones as well
Great video! Haven't seen Simpsons in ages.
Not bad. It should all be in game though. But I'll give it a B for effort.
@PickledKong64 The best one I've seen is the Murray Franklin Show scene from the Joker movie starring Pietro (NSFW!)

@AlexOlney Remember:
'mono' means 'one'
And 'rail' means 'rail'
@WoomyNNYes you're right, that's a slippery slope...what next, BICYCLES!?
@RPGamer isn't it "sind das essen, ne wie sind der jaeger"?
They gave Marge a tall Karen hairdo D:
@Clyde_Radcliffe lol just watched it and yeah that was great haha!
@Clyde_Radcliffe they're oil barrels but video-edited to appear curved. The gray color is also edited, likely taken from the oil-barrel bathtubs you can make with a DIY recipe.
Only issue is Homer is way too skinny lol
@Kimyonaakuma And it's only her head we're talking about!!
"recreated in Animal Crossing"
Well.........
That was cool
How do you hum the simpsons?
@WoomyNNYes "I call the big one bitey"
Ok German lesson, it's "Sind Sie das Essen? Nein, wir sind die Jäger."
-Are you the food (prey/hunted)? No, we are the hunters.
The ending was worth it.
