    Animal Crossing on Modern Day Consoles

    It's definitely has plenty of nostalgia of the past Animal Crossing games with plenty of new things and good "quality of life" fixes. The online (or local) with friends is the best part. The ease of traveling to each others' islands really adds to it. It's also getting plenty of updates and patches to increase the quality of the game and presenting seasonal events. Very chill game.

    What’s better then being able to have quality alone time away from the wife or children AND be a hero? Nothing. Buy this game, hand it to family member and proceed to live the life of a single person. No one will care where you at or what you’re doing because they will be glued to the switch. Start a second family, become a cage fighter shave your head, no one will notice.

    I am new to the animal crossing games and I got to say, this is hands down one of my favorite games on the Nintendo Switch by far. I heard about this game and didn’t think too much about it. It is a very cute game and it is a ton much more fun when playing multiplayer with family and friends. I really do think many people will enjoy it, I definitely recommend it, 10/10.

    I had never played animal crossing before but had heard a lot about it... bit the bullet and bought it and now it’s all I play!! It’s so cute and fun and the perfect game to take your mind off of the craziness of the world for a bit! 10/10 would recommend! I bought it for myself a couple weeks ago and then had to buy this one for my boyfriend bc he kept trying to steal mine haha

    This is our families first experience with animal crossing. So I can’t compare it to previous titles but so far my 7 year old daughter and I are have such an amazing time with it. We are only a week into it but everyday there is something new to build or upgrade or just customize. I highly recommend this family friendly game to anyone wanting to get away and live on an island lol.

    This game is a blast! I bought it for my 7 year old but I must admit I love it even more than she does! You get hooked on trying to get that bigger house, better tools, more contacts. It’s amazing and adorable! I only wish it had the fortune cookies like the app does and the huge assortment of clothes the app does but I’m guessing that will come with time! Definitely a must have!

    I have really enjoyed playing this game. It keeps you busy for hours and it is a lot of fun. The only downside is how it restricts you to only one island. That makes it tough if other kids want to build something as well.

    One of the best games I've ever played, Nintendo really stepped it up for this latest version of Animal Crossing. It's perfect for someone who likes a constant flow of rewards with the Nook Miles feature, and you get to make an island look how you want to with terraforming and placing furniture outside. So cute and clean, well rendered, and worth the decade between installments.

    Animal crossing is an easy, fun way to pass the time. You create and design your own island with the help of your animal neighbors. I really only have 2 overall issues with the game. 1.) Please make some quality of life updates! It is SO grindy! You can't make more than 1 item at a time and you have to have the SAME conversations over and over again when you donate, purchase, sell, etc. 2.) Multi-player is a nightmare. Only one person can actually do anything so player two basically acts like an extra set of hands for player one's game. It would be a lot nicer if there was a split screen option instead.

    I am in my mid 20s, and I have a 5 year old brother. A lot of my friends have this game, and I was skeptical of it at first, but it is truly so much fun. Once I had it for a few weeks, with my brother's birthday coming up, I recommended it to my parents as a gift for him. Now we're both playing the game, each having the same amount of fun, and we get to play it together!

    It keeps everything that works about the Animal Crossing games and improves the graphics! I can't wait to see how they expand the game through content updates. I love the online play options. I'm the only player in my household so I can understand how some are frustrated with the 1 island per Switch configuration but it doesn't impact me so I didn't figure it into my review.

    On May 19th California was put under stay at home orders. This happened to be the release date for Animal Crossing. It is everything right now! I can visit my friends, find meaningful work and order in a very chaotic and confusing world. I look foward to the holiday events and updates as Nintendo enjoys a very well deserved successful launch of this chapter in Animal Crossing.

    Enjoyable game! If you loved the original Gamecube game or the off-shoots for the DS, you will enjoy this game. You get to see fan-favorite villagers from past games to new and original characters for this game. Nintendo always has seasonal events to keep the game active and the new DLC to keep you busy.

    Favorite Switch Game

    My favorite switch game that I own. I grew up playing animal crossing and this is the best one yet. I love how their are monthly events and how you can connect with multiple friends. An important thing to know is that you only get one island per switch so if expect to have multiple users on a switch have different islands that isn't the case at the moment.
