Customer Ratings & Reviews

As my first Animal Crossing experience this is a wonderful game, and a great way to escape into a fun and engaging world. My entire family genuinely enjoys developing their island.

So far, so good. ACNH keeps me entertained with lots to do, from customizing your house to visiting your friend’s island and especially building your dream island. 10/10 recommend!

The last one of these I played was the original animal crossing. They've added several features to make the game much more interesting and extend how long you can play without it feeling repetitive, but it still feels like the great game it was/is. Appropriate for anyone any age. To anyone who is not familiar, this game uses real time in the game for daylight/night time/store hours/etc., so there is some waiting you have to do at times unless you want to mess with your system date/time and it's not a game you necessarily "win". But you have a vision of your perfect island, I highly encourage you to get this game and make it a reality.

My 10 year old had saved up for this game and when he had enough we took him to buy it. We stopped at 3 different gaming shops but couldn't find animal crossing at any of them. We then decided to look at best buy (which we should have gone to first). They had the game and even though they were only doing curb side pick up, the best buy employee said if we put the order in he would be able to bring it right out. We bought the game online and he brought it out within minutes. It's a great game where my son can build on his own island and add his friends to play/visit each others islands. Also the service we received was exceptional.

How do I put it into words? This game is amazing. For fans of Animal Crossing, you'll love this. For newcomers, if you like taking nothing and building it into something, you might like this. You start from scratch in this game, with nothing but a tent, a resident services, 2 villagers, and an empty island. It takes your efforts to make something out of this island, and the more work you put in, the more you get out. Getting that bridge feels amazing because you know how much hard work went into it. Your beautiful lawn is all the more beautiful because you made it yourself. Excellent game, can't recommend enough. The perfect zen experience.

So let me start off by saying that I never really buy anything game related or from Best Buy at all in general. When this game started taking over the internet, it was impossible to find (only digital was available everywhere) I needed the physical copy because when I get a lite I want to be able to play with that and take it with me. Sadly the coral isn’t available but that’s okay because I can wait. Now Originally it was going to take two weeks to ship to my house but, is took less then a week! The checkout process was fast and easy and getting to my house sooner than later really made my day! Will FORVER now be buying things from Best Buy

I'm a 35 yr old who never played any Nintendo games till 2018 when I bought my Switch and Zelda BOTW. I had a high level of curiosity about AC since I read that we play it in real world time and we can keep playing it for years. At this stage in my life, this is the kind of game that suits my lifestyle, so I picked up this game and a Switch Lite just so I can game anywhere anytime(I know the OG Switch is portable as well, but its relative bulk prevented me from carrying it everywhere). And I'm enjoying Animal Crossing much more than I expected too, especially because I just could not get into Stardew Valley. The changing season bringing with it its own variety of flaura and fauna is so much fun. At times waiting few days to collect enough items to unlock a next stage does feel like a grind, but I still have fun while doing it. My biggest complain would be the lengthy repetitive dialogues delivered by some characters every time I initiate an interaction with them becomes a pain overtime. Why do I need to hear Blathers explaining he is a night owl every time I'm doing him a favor by donation stuff during daytime? And what the hell is wrong with Nintendo about not making cloud backup available for this game? Why am I not allowed to play this both on my OG Switch and my Switch Lite if I want to? All these complaints apart, this is definitely a game that I expect to keep playing casually for a few years.

Bought this for my grandson, he is loving all of the friends that come to visit your island. All of the fun things he shows me he can build brings joy to me. Even if you have never played the others in the past, being able to play with him and he can take me around to see all of his cool things make this a wonderful family game.

The graphics are so much better than previous animal crossing games and there is alot of customization options. The game is getting regular updates and is quite relaxing.

Great game. My daughter plays it with her family and friends online. She really enjoys creating things and all the special events the game has throughout the year.

Easy to play, with plenty of content to keep you busy and engaged for hours.

Decided to hop on the Animal Crossing train and honesty do not regret. It’s been really fun and relaxing to play. I really like how creative you can be with designing stuff.

This game is and steal your life kind of game that you can just... play and forget your real world worries for a while. Perfectly worth your money if yiu want that escape.

I bought this game for my sister and she really loves it. It's perfect for passing the time between trips or moments of distraction.

Great game for kids and adults. My 5yr old loves the characters and setting up her own little town. Its been a great bonding experience.

I have played this game nonstop, and love it! So much content, and they keep adding free content to the game monthly. So fun, and easy to play. Very relaxing, and fun!

1st timer to the series and I can say this is very addicting. There are endless things to do and collect everyday kind of like pokemon and a farming game. Highly recommended

Really a great overall game. Easy to play and not hard for people of any age! If you are thinking of getting the game I would just pull the trigger and get it. Don’t wait

Not just for the kids!! Animal crossing appears very cutesy on the surface, but the game has a lot to offer in terms of depth and complexity to both experienced and new gamers alike. Animal crossing has to be by far the best game to put in the hands of a brand new gamer. I recently purchased an ACNH Switch Console for my girlfriend who is certainly not a gamer… she’s easily logged 15 hours in the game over the course of the last few evenings and has already begun researching other games she may enjoy playing on her new switch.

This game is very fun to play because you have an endless amount of things to do. This is one of my favorite games of all time! I love the graphics and all of the characters.
