Random: Animal Crossing Player Perfectly Recreates Link’s Awakening's Mabe Village

That is an awesome idea! I want to do something like that now

Dream code, chop chop. I don't have all day, got dreaming to do.

If I can't use magic powder to set villagers on fire, what's the point. /s

(This is a really cute tribute, please drop the Dream Address.)

Very nice! Makes me wish Nintendo used this engine, with it's sharp highres graphics, for the Links Awakening remake instead of the blurry and stuttering Unreal Engine-mess we got. Perhaps if they remake Oracle of Seasons/Ages - one can wish!

Looks great, I was hoping for more pictures!

I made Snowdin from Undertale in mine.

We are back on animal crossing, so it seems.

@Imerion I thought Link's awakening had very good graphics

@negw It looks good, absolutely, but docked it runs at pretty much half the resolution of Animal Crossing New Horizons and despite this it had trouble with stuttering and such. On a large TV the difference between the two games is staggering despite having pretty much the same type of look.

This actually really inspired me. I think it’s time I start rolling out some updates to my island to get ready for the new update incoming. I have a nice little marketplace/Main Street set up in the corner that I’m afraid to touch. I also have a huge walled garden on the opposite side and I’m afraid to touch… months of designing and planning will need to be overhauled.
Might work on it tonight

There is no Dream Code unfortunately - quote from the Twitter account after being asked for the code: "Not for this build unfortunately. It was just a one off build on my second switch"

Did something similar to this on my island but with Animal Village instead.

@StefanN Dream Code or it didn’t happen. 😉

I am SO happy Animal Crossing is back in the news so we're going to get weekly "someone did something in Animal Crossing" filler articles again instead of "we made up for ***** about the Switch Pro" filler articles we've been getting.

@Imerion You do know Link's Awakening Remake runs at 60FPS vs the 30FPS of Animal Crossing... Which is a lower framerate then what every other Animal Crossing game ran on a home console.

It also one of the only few first party game from Nintendo to not run at Nintendo patented 60FPS besides Breath of the Wild on the Switch.

Both games exhibits slow down and stuttering. But Animal Crossing choosed resolution over performance. Link's Awakening picked performance over resolution.

I still find it surprising this article is making rounds on several gaming outlets. There is literally nothing more than just this one screenshot, showing Marin and Tarin's house and... that's it. Nothing else is shown, there aren't any following tweets with more, and the dream code isn't available. I just, don't get why this got so much attention.

This looks impressive thanks to the camera filter mostly.

The article titles always have me expecting more. "Perfectly recreates" is just too much of an overstatement! It is a really good effort, though.
