@fadedcolors And that’s all I’m saying! My complaint ISN’T exactly ‘not enough things to do’ it’s simply the lack of INTERACTIVE things to do. Cause obviously there is plenty things to do, I just think the series needs to kind of shake things up a bit more; I have a whole basketball court on my island that I can’t even use, a laptop in my bedroom that only turns on and off, tourist telescopes that do nothing, arcade machines in my basement that I can’t even interact with and etc. THOSE are in align to my complaints, and it’s not to say that AC isn’t a good game, I love AC, it’d just be nice if the series got shaken up a bit with some more razzle dazzle.
@ShadJV I’ve been playing AC since Population Growing, but your argument can also be a problem. Why rely on the, ‘if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it’ mechanic instead of adding new ideas to keep it fresh?... and that isn’t to discredit the newly introduced terraforming and crafting abilities, but again, those things aren’t interactive. I wanna do cool meaningful stuff and especially with friends in Animal Crossing. Why is it that since Population Growing, the primary focus is, complete museum, pay off debt, furnish house. Is there really NOTHING else they can think of???
@popishighbrow that still doesn’t change the list of interactivity to do in the game. Simply ‘collecting’ things doesn’t exactly equal fun all the time, especially having a character like Redd that only appears twice a month on average that sells fakes half the time, they could have AT LEAST made getting art more fun than what is. I guess my complaint isn’t necessarily ‘not enough things to do’ but more so the lack of interactivity the game has to offer; Furniture that does nothing other than look cool, friends’ islands I can visit that I can do no more than tour their island and check out shops, no other places to go besides mystery islands. There is definitely room for improvement for interactivity.
Already got all the art thanks to Nookazon and forum trading. I just wish there were more interactive things to do in Animal Crossing. After your island is ‘complete’, holding a 5 star rating and your house is paid off and fully furnished to your desire, there really isn’t too much to do afterwards... We need more things to do, ESPECIALLY in the online Multiplayer department.
I brought up an idea on another post a time before that said, I feel like Nintendo should give us a social media app for the Nookphone in a future update. We could connect with the almost 400 villagers roster and possibly invite them to our campsites and eventually have them as our own villagers. This would not only be a neat interactive addition, but this could also be a way to combat amiibo scalpers.
I personally thought a fun idea would be for Nintendo to make a social media-like app for the Nookphone so that you could connect with all the characters and even invite some over to your island to live there. It’d be a great way to get some of the characters that you want and familiarize yourself with the almost 400 villagers roster.
I instead think they should work with the virtual console games they already have on Switch and just make it available on smartphones. I currently never even touch the virtual console games on Switch, but if these were made available on my smartphone, the story would change quick!
Edit: they could even capitalize on the idea by creating a Nintendo licensed Bluetooth game controller for it. (I currently use a Dualshock 4 to play games that are controller compatible on the iOS)
Hmm... i don’t know why people are so quick to shutdown smartphone games. I played Oceanhorn 2, Call of Duty & Shantae on the Apple Arcade recently with a Dualshock 4 controller and had an amazing gaming experience. If it’s done right, it works (Not crap like Mario Kart Tour 👎🏽) & not to mention it’s more convenient.
I want to be hype, but does anyone else think this looks a bit plain, generic and/or slow?... I was a guaranteed buyer at first because of nostalgia, but now I think I’ll have to wait for some reviews. 😬
Might be in the minority with this statement... and it’s a bold one! Buuuut... I’d much rather have a Pikmin trilogy release than Pikmin 4 at the moment. 😬
If a Splatoon 3 is upon us, then they need to change something about it, Splatoon 2 was cool and all but it looks too close to Splatoon 1. I didn’t even put in half the hours in 2 as I did with 1 and I’d like to think that’s part of the problem. DON’T BECOME NEW SUPER MARIO BROS.
Everybody’s in an uproar over the development hell of Metroid Prime 4, meanwhile I’m just over here waiting for the original trilogy to drop. I’m a simple man, I don’t ask for much.
@jsty3105
Well, for the sake of your argument, I think your points are very shallow.
For one, Sonic/SEGA ain’t Mario/Nintendo now are they? And even still, although I don’t know any of the statistics, I can almost guarantee you SEGA’s mobile games have been profitable. I hate how you’re making it seem as if Nintendo would generate little to no money revenue from doing so.
And secondly, as I stated in my first post, Nintendo could easily make their own controller for mobile devices that could connect via Bluetooth.
I really don’t see a lose here and why naysayers beg to differ... Just thinking about it now, but, I think it would be pretty awesome if Nintendo made their Online VC content available via an app on mobile. That would actually give me a reason to care about it and would spark an interest in newcomers for sure!
@jsty3105 Nintendo has never released anything mainline for mobile so you can’t really disprove it. But with the success from Pokémon Go and the more recent release of Mario Kart Tour, this should point to all the reason Nintendo could and SHOULD produce mainline quality games for mobile, it could easily be their most profitable business venture yet... If possible, I challenge you to play Oceanhorn 2 or/and Shantae and the Seven Sirens for iOS (using a Dualshock 4) just to see if your opinion differs. Because I thought nothing about this until I played those games specifically, it gave me a new perspective.
After recently playing Oceanhorn 2 and Shantae and the Seven Sirens on the iOS using a PS4 controller, I couldn’t help but to think Nintendo has a HUGE opportunity to bring in some serious cash if they deaded making a 3DS-like predecessor and just brought their games to mobile instead.
EVERYONE has a mobile phone these days and they could easily make a unique controller of their own that specifically supports mobile devices. If a mainline Pokémon, Animal Crossing or Splatoon game hit mobile, they’d rake in billions no doubt about it!
Idc about the color of it or the lite at all if I’m being honest... although, if a Gameboy themed special edition hit shelves, I might have to bite my tongue. 😅
I can’t believe there’s no option to invert the Y axis! I’m playing like such an amateur. There really needs to be an update that can resolve this issue in the VERY NEAR future, kind of killing my gameplay experience.
100%’d in a week right after its release. Pretty solid game, just wish it were more to it, the replay value is a bit low, building custom dungeons just isn’t enough.
GOOD! I hope they all go under!... Sucks for the people with time invested there though, hope they can work something out, cause that is quite unfortunate for the employees involved...
@DEADCELL This is actually VERY possible to do as even I didn’t discover it until pretty late in the game myself. But this could also be due to the fact that the game isn’t linear to the point where you MUST discover this village or any location in the game for that matter.
I have no interest in a Switch Mini as I play my Switch docked 90% of the time. If anything, I’m on the prowl for Switch Pro with more powerful specs. But the idea of a mini is great for the market!
@NOOGA I mean, it’s not necessarily a ‘screw you’ to the Wii U owners, I’d look at it as a ‘you missed out’ more so... Think about it. If the Switch owners got a bonus for having completed goodies on their BotW save file, would that really stop the Wii U owners from purchasing the sequel? 🤔
