    My daughter wanted to play this game, and I was hoping we could find it for less than $59. No luck, but at least we did same-day pickup. Best Buy brought it out right away when we checked in for drive-thru pickup. My daughter loves the game, and it’s great, wholesome entertainment. You can also play with others online if you sign up for a Nintendo On-line account.

    Like many, Animal Crossing: New Horizons has made COVID easier. When the world is falling apart, you can always enjoy a little escapism. My wife and I both have a copy and while she plays more than I do, we both enjoy playing. This has been a great franchise and is well worth your money if you like casual, yet engaging game play.

    Animal Crossing has been one of my family's favorite games as a kid and now for my kids (myself still also). Running your own island is the object these with New Horizons on Nintendo Switch. Progress along for new visitors to set up camp with you, visit friends and random island with the airport! Fun for the whole family, highly entertaining and reccomend!

    If you’ve played Animal Crossing before you know what to expect, but this is even better. Crafting adds more fun to the experience, Nook Phone helps you keep track of the DIY recipes. The graphics and sound effects on the Switch Lite are fantastic. I love standing on the beach in the moonlight watching the waves come in and listening to the sound of the water.

    First animal crossing game i've ever played, and despite not being able to transfer saves yet, or having multiple islands, The game is still really relaxing and enjoyable, and playing with friends makes the experience even better, absolutely recommenced to grab if you just wanna sit down, relax a little and just play a game that's basically real time stardew valley

    We first came across this game when visiting some friends. They hag been playing it for awhile and had asked our boys if they'd like to try it. Our boys quickly became addicted as well, so we got them a copy. From there, my wife tried it and fell in love with it. So now we have two copies so that all of them can play at the same time.

    So far everyone I know is in love with this game as soon as the start it. Even people who were never interested in animal crossing before love this version. Granted if you only love shooter games this won’t be your thing, but if you like cute games, you will love this. Right now my top 4 games is Zelda breath of the wild, animal crossing, Mario odyssey, and Skyrim.

    I have been playing every day since purchase. It has easily become the best AC in the franchise to me. It's really nice that right now Nintendo is being really active in pushing bug fixes as players find and report them online. The only downside is that there only one island per Switch and only the first player can really participate in story elements of the game.

    This island has alot of stuff that you wouldn't be able to find in the game without time traveling or trading. The island layout is very easy to navigate and you can see the items that you purchase before leaving the island. Its surprisingly fun to look around and see what options you have to buy in there. I would visit again

    Been a big fan of Animal Crossing since my DS and GameCube. I was able to save $5 using my BestBuy rewards and it was mailed directly to my house. Now I'm waiting for the Switch consoles to get back in stock so I can play it. Until then, it will stay sealed and in my media cabinet, ready to go! I can always watch my kids play theirs on their Switches.

    My wife bought this somewhere around March, and it's been one of the best purchases we've ever made game-wise. The development team has been releasing seasonal content on a semi-monthly basis, so there's always new things to do. It's also a good way to hang out with friends when you're long-distance, which is fairly perfect for quarantine.

    Have never played an Animal Crossing game before, but I definitely understand the hype. So glad I was able to get a copy before our city went on lockdown. A go-at-your-own-pace type of game, very relaxing and satisfying building your character, home, a d island how you want it to be. Wish I got my wife her own Switch as she is now trying to take over my Island.
