It's fucking over, AC bros. The next Animal Crossing game is going to be a cutesy mascot fest for little girls

you mean like the first one?

As opposed to the mature, masculine series it was?

Animal Crossing has always been for girls and faggots

What do you mean about animal crossing not being a cutesy mascot fest for little girls?

>cutesy mascot fest for little girls.
Wasn't this always the case to begin with

Animal Crossing has no adult fans who aren't either female, gay or furry.

>Gamecube and DS games were kino as fuck, so much comfy shit to do and the villagers were somewhat mature and were capable of some interesting discussions
>Wii game was such a lazy port with more cutesy wootsy dialogue

Isn't that exactly what animal crossing is? Fuck, isn't animal crossing just a glorified mobile game?

It depends on what you have in mind

The main problem isn't that she's furrybait, it's that they pushed her as "ANIMAL CROSSING'S MASCOT" despite the series doing just fine for 3-4 games without having a mascot. It's the most blatant shilling ever, and the fact that NL's gameplay and writing managed to be even worse than fucking City Folk doesn't help matters.

Stop being so disingenuous, she wasnt pushed as the mascot, she was made into a mascot due to her popularity.

NL had excellent ratings while CF failed miserably.

To me, there is very little sadder than the Western adult YW fan. At least with Mario, Kirby, Yoshi, Pokemon, Animal Crossing, etc., you can get that people got into it as kids and that is why they like it as adults. YW came to the U.S. in 2015 and Europe in 2016. Being a 20-something who's into it is just sad, because it means you got into it when you should have already been old/mature enough to never pay it a second thought.

AC OG fan here.

New Leaf is still a good game and has some genuine improvements over the previous games. There's zero reason you should feel bad for enjoying it since while complaints like villager dialogue being made less abrasive and more abrasive personalities being taken out of the spotlight are legitimate concerns, the games are still wonderful experiences in general. Enjoy AC on GC when you play it, but never feel bad for enjoying New Leaf.

I cherish my 200 hours with New Leaf just as much as my time with AC on the Gamecube and DS. Though Wild World on DS is definitely where most of my memories are.

I'm so excited for the Switch version, man.

Face it, you GameCube babies only care about your menstruating Resetti and “MUH NES GAEMS,” and don’t give a shit about the series except for nostalgia. Leaving you lot behind only makes my appreciation for the new games grow. You’ve already ruined Star Fox by refusing to let a series change, so piss off from AC and just keep playing your old games.

Who the fuck cares about Animal Crossing?
People who enjoy Animal Crossing are only people who aren't good at real games, which is why it's one of the most popular Nintendo IPs with women.

I've never played it I just masturbate to the main character sometimes

Chances are a lot of dialogue about food and the personality types kind of blending together. On the upside customization is way up

as an og animal crossing fan, the only one i didn't really like was city folk. new leaf is flat out just better as a game, compared to the rest of the franchise.

If you played GC AC you're no newfag

>I'm a newfag

Not really.

I can't believe Timmy and Tommy are fucking dead.

>You’ve already ruined Star Fox by refusing to let a series change
If you want a series to change, that series isn't for you. Play something else. It's not fucking rocket surgery.

I've poured hundreds of hours into New Leaf as well, and am also eagerly anticipating the switch version. Going to purchase the original gamecube version regardless and probably check out Wild World so I can see what I was missing out on. Heard City Folk was just a garbage port of Wild World with dumbed downed dialogue and wagglan gimmicks so I'd rather avoid that one.

Good. I, for one, welcome our new cutesy overlords.

Not him, but what kind of logic is this, which Nintendo franchises never changed over the years?

Don't let autists on a Chinese basket-weaving forum dictate which games you enjoy.

NL is a great game and has plenty of positive changes since the original AC. All the AC games have their pros and cons but all are still good to great, with NL and the original being the best two. Only one I absolutely cannot go back to is Wild World since at the time it was tolerable, but the FPS is horrendous to look at now.

based

no not based, look how he, and everyone who said identical things, were proven wrong

I hope AC switch does away with the rolling pin world. I want cliffs back.

>thinking anything that happens in pocketcamp will influence switch
We probably won't even see half the fucking items pocket camp has in switch let alone the mascot shit.

City Folk is the only main one I haven't played and I was tempted to try it while waiting for the Switch version but I think I'd rather just let AC Switch be as fresh as possible for me.

Been playing Happy Home Designer if I've been particularly desperate for the atmosphere though, cute game but the lack of any sort of reward/punishment -at all- really does hurt it.

I just hope the Switch version doesn't have some major feature tied to the smartphone game. I just couldn't get into pocket camp at all.

I miss when nintendo put out quality games that came from the heart and weren't just to maximize sales. I understand the mindset of mass market appeal to get the biggest bang for their buck, but think about all the companies in gaming that started out like that and are deader than shit. The reason Nintendos still around is because they built an empire on genuine love for the games they made and their sheer ingenuity. I feel like thats all going out the window as they try to design products based on what they think people want instead of setting the precedent for what people never knew they wanted and blowing them away.

when has that ever been not the case?

City Folk is worth skipping. I've always poured hundreds of hours into AC games but City Folk I barely even played. The grass degrading mechanic is genuinely awful in that game I don't know what they were thinking. It's hardly noticeable in NL, but if you run around a lot you can actively see your grass being worn away, making ugly as fuck marks around your town unless you constantly walk and alternate where you go to keep it from wearing too quick. That alone killed that game for me. Didn't have much else going for it over the other entries at the time either, but that was a huge negative and outweighed what pros it had.

Ac is dead in my eyes.

They're making so much money on this cash shop shit on the phone of course they're not gonna bother with a switch version. If they do it'll be worse than other installments. Just play new leaf.

>>bigger catalog than ever
Oh boy, new fucking 3D models. Surely this is the most complex, impressive feature ever. Big fucking whoop.
>>new mechanics and responsibilities in being the mayor
Being the mayor fucking sucks when the whole point of AC is to live in a small village. Getting rid of Tortimer as the village "elder" was a fucking horrible choice.
>>more furniture and clothing customization
Furniture is fine, but the new clothes are COMPLETELY fucking pointless when all your villagers are still forced to wear nothing but "shirt without sleeves", especially since the new player models are ugly.
>>better multiplayer
Like what, the fucking awful island minigames?
>>ways to visit other towns without having to be invited
Who fucking cares? Oh right, autismo minmaxers who have to show off their perfect hacked town with shitty patterns everywhere and every PWP completely paid off.
>>all simplifications are flat out QoL improvements (like how fossils are identified)
No.
>You’ve already ruined Star Fox by refusing to let a series change,
AHAHA
No. Star Fox's problem was that they kept fucking trying to change in the worst ways. SF was good, SF64 tried to change thing sup by being a straight remake of SF, which was fine, wasn't bad. SFAd was a fucking garbage adventure game with SF slapped on. All other SF games were shit because they kept adding fucking shitty gimmicks instead of properly building on the foundations SF/SF64 set, then SFZ came out and was absolutely awful because it tried to remake SF64 again without having any of the alternate routes, and adding nothing but shitty motion control gimmicks and the fucking gyrocopter shit.
You can innovate in a series without completely tearing out the foundations of what that series is, you utter mongoloid.

This is another great comparison.

well this is an autistic thread

I tried for the first time the original just few weeks ago, I regret not having done it earlier. It's cute, calm, relaxing, there are no expectations, no pressure, you just do whatever you want. Even years after I can understand why people love it. I get back to it regularly, and will after this post.

Then I tried New Leaf. I was instantly shocked by how much shit you had to do, this wasn't relaxing at all. It started to become a chore, and I just didn't like playing it. Villagers had not much to say, wondering if it's because of the smaller screen that they kept lines short. They also lack personalities compared with the original, it's all so bland. Also having so much control over everything, and being able to customize the city ruined it to me. I want to let go, not micromanage shit.

Then tried Pocket Camp. Concept sounded great, camping is fitting for a smartphone game. Started off with a long ass tutorial section that was fucking annoying, then literally 16 NOTIFICATIONS popped onto the screen. Then everything is about timers, having to wait for shit, and it's stressing as fuck. THEY PUT TIMERS ON FRUIT TREES FOR FUCKS SAKE. You can't even walk around either, it's just a bunch of split zones with long loadings in-between, not that there's any reason to, villagers, or "campers" just stand there, doing nothing. It's got nothing of the essence of even New Leaf. Too bad, the concept was decent, but it's just a chore to "do", and I won't even say "play", there's no "playing".

I can see how this series went into the wrong direction. I expected it to become a laid back Harvest Moon/Stardew Valley with social elements, instead it became a stressful grindfest. I've been told City Fold is equally terrible, though haven't tried Wild World, maybe there's a slight improvement.

At least I can emulate the original on my phone.

RIP sweet prince.

Animal Crossing was originally for autists and that's how it should be

>wondering if it's because of the smaller screen that they kept lines short.
No, the DS to 3DS had a bigger screen and yet Wild World to New Leaf had less text on screen at once. It's part of their many design choices to make it more kid friendly/dumbed down
We're all hoping they've learned a lot with AC Switch. Keep fingers crossed, we'll find out in 12 days.

>being this nitpicky about goddamn Animal Crossing
this is real autism, folks

Am I the only one who thinks yellow flowers need to be buffed? If you look at this chart, you'll see that red flowers can be used to create three different hybrids, white flowers can create two, and yellows can only make one. I think if they made it so black flowers are made by yellow/yellow instead of red/red, it would help balance the breeding values of the different flower colors.

>Animal Crossing was very dumbed down and simplified with New Leaf because they wanted to appeal more to children and women.

This has been Nintendo's MO since the Wii released, why is this a surprise to anyone? There's a reason just about every new mainline Nintendo game has been the worst in their respective series.

>why is this a surprise to anyone
It's not. Just because people point it out and don't like it doesn't mean they're surprised by it.

I agree with everything except the fossils. At this point the player should just be able to identify fossils themselves.

Having Blathers do it was fun when he actually had unique dialog for bugs/fossils.

This seems extremely likely to me. It sucks since I couldn't get into Pocket Camp at all yet it has a lot of nice-looking new items I'd like to have in the Switch game, but I'm not playing through gachashit hell for that stuff.

Animal Crossing is a neat concept, but like every other Nintendo game it is as deep as a puddle so their audience who is mostly 5 year olds don't drown. Any good games that have a similar idea? Sims Bustin' Out was sort of similar to it, though it is much more linear with less focus on collecting.

you mean just like every other animal crossing game

>still trying to push this meme

I started with Wild World, I just want much better dialogue for this game. That's it. Everything else is fine to me.

How could you possibly dumb down the GameCube version? I remember I rented that game and was confused as to where the game was. I always throught all the gameplay was on the GBA connection because I honestly couldn't figure out the point of the game besides being a waste time. It was literally nothing the video game.

Animal Crossing was always for women and furries.

Yeah, they do. I have literally never met a SINGLE child who enjoys things being dumbed down for their sake. Kids know when they're being talked down to and they fucking hate it.

I just want a lot more new character episodes, I loved those in Wild World.

GC was good, but WW scrapped all actual holidays and replaced them with shit like "la-di-da day" and you think it's not cutesy? Literally the only thing it has over New Leaf is the dialogue (which is still worse than GC's), and I'd rather have more features than slightly less shitty writing

People who still claim the original is best is delusional. You can only do so much for an hour tops and then shut it off and wait for the next day. I think the first game definitely has arguably the best music and maybe the best town setup but come on, evaluate the actual content. It's without a doubt been improved upon on each game.

I liked it when I was a kid.

So why is the AC franchise not crashing and burning in flames? Children hate products that are dumbed down for them, right?

If they manage to get the dialogue back to GC standards, next AC game is gold.

I played them as they were released, if you can't see the difference in writing between GC and WW you're retarded

They didn't, though.

Tom Nook is dealing with deaths in the family in the next animal crossing. Woah bros. What if the next game has villagers that can die and you have to organize their funeral?

And do they care about dialogue being dumbed down?

Autists who get worked up over Isabelle need to be gassed. You guys are genuine faggots.

Played Animal Crossing for the first time in my life earlier this year, felt like a great game.

New Leaf clearly was a different experience, and a worse one, gone was the unique mood of the original. I never thought such a casual game that a child can play could be dumbed down, well, it happened.

Ask kids what they play and it was always CoD, Halo, Fortnite, etc.

A lot of people I knew growing up got a lot of their earlier practice reading from games like Pokemon or Animal Crossing. It wouldn't surprise me if the same type of kids who took enough interest in those games to actually read the text on screen because of how entertaining it was, suddenly get turned off by a game because it's expected to just skip the text because it's non-unique filler.

I wonder why Nook looks depressed in the AC switch teaser. Why do you all think he's depressed?

Kids are dumb little faggots nowadays, they just don't like to read.

Children are not stupid, but they are compliant with dumbed-down content. Stop acting like you care that much.

Because now we have soibois that are so mentally impaired, they can't deal with things a kid can.

>acting
If I wanted dumbed down content I'd come here more often.

you mean the game where you do literally nothing is going to continue to be the same? wow

Is the wii game any gud?

It would be cooler if one of the twins converted to anglicanism and sectarian violence became very common in the town

>just about every new mainline Nintendo game has been the worst in their respective series
lol

>the original releases of their franchises were already made for children
Uh. Not really.

Looking at the dialog alone, from the tone of some of them which is very mature and not very "kid-compliant", to the jokes about why you're up late or haven't come in a long time which directly refer to your day job and your cleaning tasks, it surely was aimed at adults.

Kids can take this as a joke, but a lot of dialog definitely aims adults.

It has a nice museum and donation rewards but grass wear is rediculous and the city is pointless

Just realised AC is a girls game user?

holy fuck Timmy and Tommy are fucking dead

Have sex

Well shit, looks like everyone beat me to talking about how NL was the start of everything becoming overly kiddified, how the fanbase went to shit in late 2014, and how Isabelle has been shilled since her inception. At least I know I'm not the only one who's aware of this stuff.

>hurr durr

t. never played Wild World, the comfiest game ever

This is pretty accurate, I think.
NL's problem is that it appeals too directly to the player instead of making the world actually enjoyable as a whole package.

100% true except for the last part. WW had cool mini events like Flea Market, Bright Nights, etc. but the lack of actual holidays hurt it. I'd say make it equal to GCN.

Correct except WW music is way better than CF music.

So when are we going to be able to start a family with one of the villagers? I want to work hard as both a mayor and a parent.

It also has the best systems for flowers and trees. I had more fun with the flowers in that game than I did with my neighbors.

>Music
>GCN > WW = CF > NL
City Folk doesn't deserve to be on the same level as Wild World here. Reusing the 90% of the soundtrack is just lazy as shit and the new stuff wasn't great.

Harvest Moon is that-a-way, man.

I'm a random passerby with no emotional investment in this thread but I the disparity between the amount of soul forest has and wild world is the portrait of soul v. soulless.

NL > ALL

I played the first one and it was fun. I think the articles calling it the Pokemon killer was what ruined it.

>GCN not first when it comes to holidays
WW gimped main holidays while sprinkling in a bunch of whatever "special days" just to bloat the calendar. Said days are on the same level as NL's shit with Isabelle in front of a cutout.

>not playing DnMe+

Would be wonderful to have a few outdoor areas, like a mountain from which you can actually see your town from a different angle, also would make a sweet place for events.
So many opportunities.

I'm neither of the three. I'm a Male manchild

what is the difference and is it even fully translated? i don't know moonrunes.

In what way?? I want to get into AC. New leaf looked like girly garbage. GC any good? I have it physical

Adds more features like PWPs built by Nook. It doesn't have a proper translation yet but someone is working on it.
It's the best one all around.

You could emulate this on your phone. You should emulate this on your phone. Why aren't you emulating this on your phone?

>Villagers
Your neighbors and who you speak to on the main world. They're split into personality types, move in and out, etc.
>Special NPCs
Shopkeepers and those who run facilities and are always there. The "main cast" of AC. Examples include Tom Nook, Able Sisters, Blathers, Resetti, etc.

why the fuck would i do that. playing it on the gamepad would be much comfier. although, i did just get a s9+ so i definitely could play it on my phone...

>why the fuck would i do that
Because Pocket Camp is objectively shit.

It'd be cool if villagers could hate you and you could have like rivals and stuff.

Did they ever say "have sex"?

Maybe in Japan, but in the US the first two games were given more of an actual personality. Also, there was nothing like back then. Nook and K.K. were the most recognizable characters but were never shilled like this.

Animal crossing should be a game that came preinstalled on all nintendo consoles at launch.

new leaf sold over 12 million copies
you are saying nintendo should throw away potential 500+ million dollar for fun
if anything light weight titles that should be included for the switch is 1-2 switch

I hope they fix this game by adding microtransactions for cute exclusive items and remove some villagers text, lol we are not in 1998 anymore

Just play Pocket Camp, you'll be set.

>casually check Rune Factory
>realize it's a Harvest Moon spin off

All of my fucking what, how come I never knew this?

probably because you were born after 2000 and only come to this website since last week

Also original Harvest Moon is now Story of Seasons.

It's not an hour long.

Dude what are you talking about, I still remember waiting in line at Gamestop on the release day of Harvest Moon.

The Gamecube was my last Nintendo console though, after that I grew up.

>People are getting mad at a game that doesn’t exist because of a mobile game

Damn, I guess Mario Odyssey sucks because or Mario Run...

>people have the ability to connect the dots and look towards the future, and I don't

Okay.

The translation of new leaf (and basically all the games but the GameCube one) are fairly accurate to the Japanese, the GameCube game was vastly changed and so well liked they retranslated it into Japanese. Basically the Japanese version of all the games are like the writing from English new leaf.

WTF there is people that get offended by that shit? how they live they everyday life then?

Animal crossing used to be more masculine and based, sigh

It's not my fault that Star Fox doesn't know how to change without all its changes being a complete clusterfuck of garbage. Ironically, it took a game that doesn't even wear the skin of Star Fox to show that you can have a great Star Fox game without it being a rehash of 64, even if the controls on KIU are a bit messy.

I'm all three. Fight me.

I know. That's my point. As far as design goes, it's rather quite different than conventional Star Fox titles, but because its changes are coherent, and make sense, and the shots ACTUALLY go where the reticle is at and there's not dual-screen bullshit, it's actually a good game. In fact, it's my favorite Star Fox game of all time.

Daily reminder that Nintendo of America hates Animal Crossing and so does Bill Trinen because its too much work for their lazy asses to translate and localize reams and reams of text. The first AC was okay with this because they were just starting out and Bill was more passionate and young, but as the series went on they became lazier and lazier about it. I mean for fuck's sake it took an entire year to localize New Leaf and the end result was shitty food puns and pop culture references repeated ad naseum. It's sad because fucking Pokemon has more text to localize and they managed to release X and Y worldwide at the same time a few months AFTER New Leaf. Literally no excuse. Don't be surprised if Japan gets it in 2019 and America has to wait until 2020.

Can we just all agree that the villager dialogue system was flawed to begin with?
Its basically procedurally generated depending on the animal and personality-type. You're going to hit a wall in the dialogue really fast, and its not like it was ever really that cleverly written or interesting.

I love Animal Crossing but the villager system has always annoyed me. I know they are completely a different type of game but I always much prefer the fixed NPCs from games like Harvest Moon/Stardew who at least have their own unique personality/story line
