@Galenmereth I couldn't agree more. Past AC games had a hidden gem - teaching kids (and not only:) that patience is virtue. Now, what do current "micro transaction/in-app purchase" games convey? I'm not talking solely of AC, but of all similar game types. "You need to have your crop grow faster? It's only $1,49 and you save $0,50!". "You need a more powerful engine for your car, but don't want to go through the hassle of tournaments? Just 2,99 today only!!". Money rules, self-perfection is for aliens! Should Nintendo release a classic AC game for Switch, no one's gonna be interested. No one will wait for 3 days to get apples from the trees or pay thousands of bells for weeks on end to get a second floor of their house. Please keep in mind these are 40-year old person's ramblings 😄
