What a beast of a game, wouldn't be surprised if it hits 40 million by the time it's done.
There's no rule that you can only have one console per generation. Switch released during the 8th gen, before the Xbox One X, and has the power of a 7th generation console (which handheld typically have last gen console performance).
However, generations mean nothing anymore. Nintendo is doing their own thing, and Xbox/PS get a spec and hardware boost but are ultimately the same thing.
I avoid games like animal crossing that would kill my brain, I am not going to let cigarettes kill my lungs.
Lol Lionel Richie getting triggered.
I thought you were supposed to just keep playing the same game?That game really grabbed me good for a while there. I was always interested in trying AC but was waiting for the right one. Super enjoyed the time I put into it.
I'll be ready to play the sequel! They turned me into an AC fan very quickly!
The game is so cute, funny, and charming. Looks gorgeous too, such a great art style. The customization was fun as hell too.
Look forward to the next jump in tech for this series. It's gonna be fire. And considering what a monster success NH was, I can't even imagine the budget/care they put into what comes next. Switch Pro or Switch 2 will be great for AC.
Animal Crossing save us from Covid 19
I no-lifed this game for a month but I'm never going back.
Animal Crossing is the hardest game I ever played, just figuring out why people even bother is harder than I could muster.Me? I don't need generations, and the games I play require the activation of more than two brain cells at the same time, unlike Animal Crossing.

The salt that Animal Crossing garners just by existing and having people quietly enjoy it is on a whole other level from any other type of salt in gaming circles.
The biggest pile of shit about this game is that only ONE account can actually play the game PER MACHINE other accounts on the same machine are just gimped users living on that one user’s island and they can’t even obtain tools to advance correctly.
Only Nintendo can get away with this pure bullshit.
Also the online aspects are pure shit... although it’s only 2020(when this came out) so I guess I should go easy on poor old Nintendo.
how much HAS ACNH sold this generation anyway?
holy shit31.8 million copies as of Feb 1st (https://comicbook.com/gaming/news/animal-crossing-new-horizons-30-million-nintendo-switch/)
Most GOTY outlets consist of people like those here who act like Nintendo forced them out of their childhood through some unspeakable act of depravity, and their audience is the same. Even entertaining the idea of having AC as GOTY would make them lose 70% of their subscribers in the space of a single tweet.How this didn't storm industry GOTY lists is a mystery to me.
The Animal Crossing franchise is stale. It hasn't evolved beyond the DS. Like, you can't even fucking swim and you live on an island...
I was really disappointed with the last game, it felt like work.
Good question, I suspect that Nintendo fans buy multiple copies in case they lose one.What is harder for you to grasp, AC's appeal or why it outsold TLOU 2 by like 5:1?

Which generation?
I literally did not know that. I'm never going back to the game, however!
You can literally swim in New Horizons.

* The tools degradation started getting on my nerves (Nintendo and their fucking degradation systems, I swear to God)
* Loading for every goddamn door
* "Wanna see new stuff? Wait for a day, nerd, you already played too much"
* "Want to craft lots of itens at the same time? Fuck you. Only one item every time"
It's so much fun when you just want to break some rocks / cut down some trees but then your tools break.
Relaxing game its not imo, not even close
Unlike Sony games that are glorified walking simulators, stepdaddy complex manifestos, communist indoctrination instruments made for the absolutely lowest common denominator. Now THOSE are games!
Don't flatter yourself son, you don't have much more than two.
I haveYeah imagine having to wait till a different time/day to do a different activity or get different items. lmao have ya'll ever even played an Animal Crossing game?
But there's no point in arguing, 'cause there are people that are entertained by doing nothing, I guess
Like I said, I enjoyed the game for a few hoursThank god we have gamers with SUPERIOR TASTE like you to guide the rest of us.
Didnt want to sound aggressive
The game looks interesting, but what exactly do you do in it? Is it kind of like a farming and building simulator or something?
I’ve only played the very first, but Animal Crossing is like the ultimate game of charm. It’s like the sims, but with animals and a more pleasing art direction and world. Talking to townsfolk and your neighbors and such, is simply a joy. You easily become invested in the game and the charm is so great that you will always crave more. It’s one of those games that will easily claim a few hundred hours of your free time. Practically was impossible not to become immersed. I had seven people playing the game on my Gamecube back in the day. Shared files lol. Someone I know bought a friend a Switch w/ Animal Crossing: New Horizons to cheer her up while in the thick of the pandemic. It’s probably a near perfect recipe by this time I can imagine. It was damn good back then, and AC: NH is enjoying what I can only guess is 100% earned success. I am not totally surprised it has sold past 31 million copies. That number is insane, but with Animal Crossing, the success it is enjoying definitely makes complete sense, to me at least it doesThe game looks interesting, but what exactly do you do in it?

Nintendo fans are missing out on games like call of duty and gta every generation for this trash
