So when you finally get the Retro Consoles from the Hotel, can you change what game you can play via Reese and Cyrus, it changes daily or do you have to buy another one?
Each console has 1 game , you would need to buy different consoles if you want different games
Does anyone know all the steps to unlocking the HHP pillar/island counter varients? From what I’ve been able to find out, I need to finish 19 homes and then I will be able to open the donation box to drop in materials for Niko to get the recipes—but I’ve completed 24 vacation homes and I still cannot use the material donation box. I’ve tried looking online but I cannot find whatever step I’m missing… Please can someone help me out?
Did Niko give you the DIYs for the first set today
If so you would need to progress a day
also make sure you did the lessons with Leif at the school and a new day usually helps if you have completed several milestones in one day
I’ve had the DIYs for the wooden set for a while now and have done both Leif’s lesson on hybrids and Niko’s lesson on the pillars/island counters. Days have passed since then. I don’t know whether it could be facilities that’s the issue? I only have the school and cafe
Yea you might want to do the restaurant then progress another day
Also just try interacting with the materials box up stairs
I’ve already tried that but it ain’t opening. I will start work on building the restaurant though and hopefully that’ll help 👍
Thanks for the advice
Does anyone have advice on getting metal efficiently?
In addition to the rocks on your main island, using Nook Miles Tickets and Kapp’n tours can be a good way to get bonus materials
Thanks!!
Np ^_^
Alright thank you!!
awe tysm!!! I appreciate it 
That's a scam
Hello! I really wanna find people to play with and maybe even be in vc while we play acnh or other co-op games. In this server i can only ask for that in #introductions or is there anywhere else in the server other look for the same? Thank you in advance!
There's also #island-hangouts🛩️🏝️ ^w^
For non-acnh games you can also ask in #general or #other-topics as long as it's not spamming <3
Thank you for replying and for the info💫
does anyone have a guide to get characters to leave? i wish this game made it easier, this sucks :c
There are tons of guides! Can i dm you?
yes please!
.t moveout
✨ How to Move Out Villagers ✨ ⠀
Read Yue's Comprehensive Move-Out Handbook to fully understand how the thought bubble move-out process works.
You can also use NookPlaza's Move Out Calculator to predict the chances of your villagers moving out based on your friendship levels.
hello! looking for this item/partition that’s 4 blocks long?
I don't think it's 4 blocks long, I think it's 4 1 block partitions
Nico gives the DIY recipe
do yk the name of it?
TY
I toootally knew that 😅 🙄
Hi, I never did that in the past so I'm not sure how it works.
I have a villager who ask me to leave, they pack tomorrow. I have an amiibo I'd like to replace them with. But usually campsite amiibo needs 3 days to ask to come live on the island. Plus I already have someone in my campsite. So I'm confused
an amiibo can kick someone if you have 10+ villager no matter if there is someone moving out or not, you won't skip the 3 days quest, were you worried about the timeline of it all ? it doesn't have have to be consecutives days, or consecutive amiibo scan even
It's just that the timing was so perfect
But yeah, I guess it doesn't matter.
Thank you!
is it possible to get the free wallpaper/rug/flooring from HHP if you don't get it the first time designing a house?
i've tried twice now remodeling someone's house for 30+ minutes and they won't give it to me
How can I get more fruit and vegetables and do I have to buy DLC for vegetables?
No dlc needed but do you have Nintendo switch online
What does gifted mean in villager trading? And how does it effect the villager?
"Gifted" refers to an animal villager who has been given gifts from the player, thus they might not have their default housing interior anymore, & they may wear other clothing pieces that were given to them, including custom designs.
"Ungifted" refers to a villager who has NOT been given gifts from the player, so they will still have their default housing interior & outfits.
Okay so I have online do I just need to go to someone’s island and grab some then plant them on mine?
That's the best option yeah
You can also get veggies from Leif on days he visits your island or on harvs , but for fruits you need to trade in order to get all types
Okay thank you I’ll try to see if I can get any fruits or vegetables
If you haven't checked it out #island-hangouts🛩️🏝️ people usually have their islands open and have giveaways for fruits and veggies
Oh my thank you so much that will really help
you can! there seems to be some sort of internal tracker for "afk"ing, so i set up a turbo A to keep rotating a rug for 20 minutes and the villager gave me wallpaper! hope this helps someone else!
does anyone know why daisy mae refuses to come to my island even tho ive unlocked them(i think)
Have you been checking in on sundays? I believe she only visits on Sunday's between 5am to 12pm
yes
on my current island its sunday at 5:03 pm and i cant find daisy
she only comes on Sunday morning between 5AM to 12PM
She comes between 5 am and 12pm so if it's 5:03 pm she's gone
How soon after starting a fresh island can I get a villager to leave / are there certain milestones that I need to reach before one will leave?
At least 6 villagers must live on your island
I meant, in order to get a move-out request from a thought-bubble event.
Campsite tourists won't be able to replace them either until you have 10 filled plots. They will say that the island is full, and you would need to buy and place another plot to invite them.
Thank you very much
What is and how do you do the little thing where you dance with your joy stick on the plaza? I saw a picture and it looked fun so I’m wondering if it’s a thing with an event or something. Does anybody know what I’m talking about by any chance?
is there a specific app for "cataloging", turnip exchange, wishlisting all that? if its not all one app or website what are some good ones to use for things like those listed above?
also what is cataloging? what the sognificance there
I think you're talking about the group stretches? You can do it by clicking on the tape deck in front of the residential building
O wait that’s the group stretches? Thank you I never knew
.t trackers here's a pretty big list of websites and apps for a lot of things regarding the game.
Cataloging, aka touch trading, means you pick up an item from another person and then drop it again. This way the original person keeps their item, but you can order that same item from your Nook Shopping

Anyone know what the circled items are?
Those are custom designed umbrellas. You can go to #custom-design-help🎨 in finding specific or similar designs.
Are the only DLC/Virtual Cards ACNH has is the HHP and Switch 2 upgrade pack? or does NSO count as one of the bunch?
does anybody know what items those are??
The stall is a customizable houseware furniture item in Animal Crossing: New Horizons. The item's top surface can be used to place smaller items, such as miscellaneous furniture. As an outdoor item, it will provide an additional 0.5 development points towards the island rating.
The stall can be obtained from crafting, which requires 12× wood. ...
Oh are they js stalls with fish on display on them
Only the NSO Expansion Pack has HHP which can be purchased for free instead of spending irl money. The NS2 upgrade pack can be purchased separately.
Is there any sort of way to get more space in the custom code saving space without the whole thing vanishing off the island or getting overwritten? Because I have so many path codes that are mostly all in use and I know if I delete a code it all gets deleted. But I want to obviously keep my paths
If you use the time traveling method to move out a villager, can you then time travel back to the actual date and time and still not have that villager?
Umm... I think you'd need to try that to be sure..
⏳ Time-Traveling ⌛
- Time-traveling will NOT remove any items or progress.
- Visitors are NOT affected by the time on your island, and you are NOT affected by the times on islands you visit.
- TT will NOT affect villager friendship levels.
- NPC visitors will remain on their set days unless you leave the current week.*
- Villagers in boxes will remain in boxes as long as you stay on the same day.* Otherwise, they will be moved out!
Going Forwards ⏩
- Using TT to go to the next day is exactly the same as doing so naturally.
- Weeds & flowers will grow.
- Cockroaches may spawn in your house.
- You may get the bedhead animation.
- Villagers may ask where you've been.
- Open villager plots may be randomly filled.
Going Backwards ⏪
- Turnips WILL spoil!!
- Fossils & daily recipe bottles will respawn.
- Visiting NPCs & Able Sister's daily stocks will refresh.
- Nook's Cranny will NOT refresh unless you leave the current week.*
- Building constructions, upgrades, or relocations will NOT be completed.
- Rocks & trees will NOT drop new items.
- Open villager plots will be randomly filled.
- The watered effect will be REMOVED from flowers & they will NOT grow.
-# *(Each new day starts at 5am, and each new week starts on Mondays.)
TTing with Turnips 
- ALL turnips, anywhere on your island & in your inventory, will SPOIL if you go backwards even 1 second, OR forwards past 5am on Sunday.
- Going backwards will RESET ALL of your prices & your weekly price trend.
- The time on an island you visit does NOT affect your turnips.
✨ HOW TO TIME TRAVEL ✨
- Save & quit.
- Go to the Switch Home Page.
- Go to Settings (at the bottom).
- Go to Date & Time.
- Change the date.
- Go to Swap User & select the same user (unless you want to choose another user).
- Congrats! You're a time-traveler! 🛸
I'm pretty sure that once they're gone, they're gone.
We can't rn for the time being. We really hoped for MORE custom design slots... 
That sucks :,)
Why do some people have a Brewster beside their name and others don't?
Does anyone know how many bells the Golden Armor recipe is worth? I see so many people on Nookazon selling it for like 500k bells, which seems like a lot to me
Does anybody know how i can reset my island without losing all my bells?
We have a middleman service who can hold your bells for you while you reset. Please read through #middleman-rules‼️ for more information
Thank you!!!
When a user boosts a server, they received a role what is known as the "Nitro Brewster"
Hi hi! Does anyone know if it's possible to use the Sanrio items in HHP without scanning the amiibo? I don't have the amiibos myself but I received the items from someone else
Normally not as they won't be cataloged, even if you got them from someone else
Oh noooo there goes my plan for Tia's tea room 🫠 thank you though!
hi guys! meteonook still works?
If you remove all event days from your source data (and ignore those days in the output as well), yes afaik
It's been abandoned since before 3.0 and I've heard special cloud tracking isn't accurate anymore, but if you track meteor showers it still works.
I KEEP SEEING THESE ADORABLE HAIRSTYLES THAT ARENT IN ACNH AND I WANNA KNOW HOW TO GET THEM
like these things
These are mods
how do i download them??
You don't you need to hack your switch to do it
i think so but idk
i have the switch 2 so im not worried about modding my original switch. i have nothing to lose lol
Modding a switch is against terms of services, we won't be able to help with that
damn
If I have a villager in boxes can I go get a villager from someone else's island?
No, you'll need to have an empty plot, which would be tomorrow
Drats
I just downloaded a set of custom paths that I laid over my existing path. If I override the path in my custom designs with a new one, will the one already on the island also change? I hope that makes sense
Yep, if you replace a custom design, any tile that design is placed on will be replaced by the new one 😊
Nice! Thank you!
Is there an item where you can store clothing?
There isn't a specific item that stores your clothes, but you can use furniture, like a closet, to access your clothing from your house storage
Allright, thank you!
Hi! I am completely new to the game, how do I chop down trees?
To completely chop them down you need the "pretty good tools " redemption from the abd or if you just want to chop for wood you use the flimsy or stone axe
I want to create a workbench do I get hardwood from cutting down trees?
You can use a flimsy axe to chop the trees to get hardwood ,since you're in the early game the flimsy is the best option to not fully chop the tree down so you can harvest wood daily
Where do I get a flimsy axe? I just got the game today so I don’t really know how tondo most stuff
Anyone know where I can buy merch around the Virginia dc area ????
If you talk to Tom nook with bugs/fish in your inventory he has the option "I found a creature" he needs 5 bugs or fish and he gives the DIY for the flimsy axe along there
Okay thank you very much! I will try that
And then just a heads up you can hit each tree 3 times for wood drops
I did figure that out earlier, but thank you anyway! 🙂
where can i trade for some nook island ticket thinggys
Depends what you're trading
what chat is it
fruit trade?
#materials-and-tools would probably be your best bet for Nook Miles Tickets (NMTs)
does anyone know if walking sticks can be caught on the kappn islands with moss and vines? it says online that these islands are always set to summer regardless of your actualseason
From Nookipedia:
Although the island's date is set to summer, this only affects the appearance; the fish, insects and sea creatures that spawn will be the same as the date on the player's home island.
danggg ok ty!
what happend with the popularity tier list of villagers?
I think I visited an island and somehow got a villager from it..I don't remember?idk I got Whitney recently and she said she was from bongotown??
Not complaining that I got her but I'm confused on how she moved here lol
If you're visiting other players online for any reason villagers that they void can be added to your move in queue if one of your plots autofill
No problem yea Whitney is a good autofill
Yeah and wolves are kinda rare villagers I think
I'm glad it wasnt graham again at least.. 😭
Okay okay revamped
This was the kidcore moodboard
3 peppy: Cheri (red), Bunnie (orange), ???
3 jock: Scoot (green), Rod (purple), Dom (neutral).
1 Lazy: Jeremiah (blue)
1 Uchi: Fuchsia (pink)
1 Smug: Pietro (multi)
1 Snooty: Eloise (yellow)
I think this is a good personality dispersement??
Who would be a good peppy space filler
Blue is taken 😭
In terms of mechanics, note that if you want to unlock all reactions and potentially different DIY from them, you would need to have the 8 personalities on your island.
So unless you already unlocked everything, it could be something to consider.
2 peppy 2 jock, then i have room for 1 normal and 1 cranky?
Or 3 peppy and 1 of everything else
It depends on your own goals and choices, and if you really care about unlocking all reactions or not. We can't really help with that, it is a very subjective question.
DIY recipes could also be found elsewhere, like from washed up bottles, or traded online, so it's not a fatality anyway
There are a bunch of normal characters that could fit your theme:
- Ione, Sky, Lolie (light blue)
- Bertha - Lily (cyan)
- Eunice (dark blue)
- Deena (khaki)
- Bea - Fauna - Sylvana - Melba - Maple (Brown)
- Kiki (Black)
And for cranky, I guess Murphy, Gonzo and Frett don't have a too much "temperamental" design and could visually fit into a playground themed island.
Youre so freaking helpful actually thank you so much 🙏
does anyone know the name of this item ? i cannot find it anywheree lol
Yes! I've seen the duck pattern one specifically, gimme a sec to pull it up. It's a lantern of some sort but the name is blanking
Hand-held lantern (leaves variant)
omg tysm ! i was looking at the teacups and stuff 😭 i'm sure i even have one in my inventory
Ofc! Happy to help :)
Does anyone have this furniture? Trying to upgrade my kitchen.
#furniture-trade would be a better place to ask
Oops sorry
No problem
What is this? Is this related to dream islands?
Hello. In HHP, I’m nearing every plot on the grid map filled. Does that mean I cannot design more homes? Or are subsequent vacationers forced to be roommates?
All map grids have limitless spots
If you mean the arch, yeah that's a slumber island thing. No we sadly can't buy it 
does anyone else have an issue with the lighting reverting to default in remodeled villager homes? everything else (furniture, etc) is applied, but the lighting i choose never sticks
Will my coconut tree grow if I plant it here
No, trees need space on all sides. It's too close to the rock and the ocean
I have a similar issue, but on HHP; I had a set BGM for each facility (e.g. I set K.K. Fusion as the music for my restaurant but days later, it's suddenly set on shuffle so K.K. Fusion is not permanently set anymore.
You actually can reuse the same plots multiple times, the game will act as if it's alternate locations and they won't override each other
It's good to fill the whole grid though, it gives you bonus points for your decorator rank

Is there any advantage to still keeping one of every personality once all the emotes are unlocked?
Apart from the reactions, there’s one other advantage: you can also only get certain DIY recipes from certain personalities. It may be worth looking up guides online to see which DIYs you can get from which personality
Thank you! Might just depend on getting those from bottles if there ends up being any
Can you invite hotel guests as permanent residents on your island, like at all?
No, sadly not possible.
I got Raymond as a hotel guest 
Does anyone have a recommendation (if it exists) on an online website where I can work on making like a layout of my island so I can reference that while redoing my island. Idk if that exists/if there is one yall recommend

Hihi!! So I got happy home paradise when it first came out and I’ve recently restarted my island… and now I no longer am able to access the DLC 
I’ve reached 3 stars, fully upgraded resident, unlocked KK slider, fully upgraded house, finished Tom nooks workshop and I still haven’t gotten the call from Nook. Does anybody know how to solve this?
I’ve tried deleting and re-downloading acnh but it still hasn’t worked
do you have the house next to the game version on the title screen ?
I’ll have to check
I do not
ok so hhp is not installed, did you load the dlc virtual card ?
I don’t believe so
you'll have to load it then
there is no secret recipes, 8 villagers, lots of fully grown trees / shrubs / blooming flowers , and items, diys + bought from nook cranny outside
listen to isabelle she gives updated feedback on what you are lacking, nature points or development points
Thanks 
Hello, is anyone kindly enough to be available lend some space on your island for some hours? (tbh I don't know how long it'll take) I want to restart Island but want to be still keep some of my items. Need to back and forth some times, but I swear I won't do anything else on your Island. 
hi! you can check out #middleman-rules‼️ and #request-a-middleman🛎️🙋♀️ for this! if the request channel is locked, you can dm @steep snow to see if a middleman is online to help you !
Oh, I didn't know there's something like this! Thank you
of course! our middleman service is completely free, however we do require time travel (only up to when your airport is open and usable) that way it can all be done in one sitting rather than over the courseof a day or two 
Idk but it probably won't be a problem
Kinda strange, but since rocks can be moved to a new random spot by breaking them and waiting a day, it shouldn't be an issue. There should at least be 6 total unless there's nowhere for them to spawn
If it got broken somehow, I would guess it would spawn another one you could get to the next day, don't know for sure though
Some kind of weird glitch, maybe. If you're worried about it, maybe just skip to the next day and start a new island if there's still only 2 rocks
Is https://discord.com/channels/494376688256548865/692982729704341524 also for food recipes?
Is there something to do to get the Amiibo card’s items in Nook Shopping?
I’ve scanned Chai’s card for both camping and photograph island, but I don’t see her Cinnamoroll items in the store. I also scanned the other sanrio characters
are you looking in the promotion tab ?
Oh yeah that was it. Thank you.
Always appreciate an answer from someone who knows what they’re talking about 
I got an amiibo card for diana for my birthday but if I have the max amount of villagers, would I have to kick out one villager so I can have room for her?
Yes, if you have 10 villagers, one will have to go. One luck with amiibos, you can choose who it is 😃
So it won’t autofill with a villager? When can I use the amiibo card? So for example, if I kick out a villager today, can I activate the amiibo card today or do I have to wait until tomorrow until the other villager moves?
You don't even have to kick one out. The amiibo will do it for you
.t amiibo here is some extra info
✨ Amiibos ✨
-
How do I move an Amiibo villager to my island? — You must invite them and craft their requested items 3 separate times in order for them to move in. (It doesn't have to be consecutive, just 3 days total.)
-
What if I have an open plot? — They still need to be invited 3 different times.
-
Can I choose who the Amiibo villager kicks out? — Yes! If you have 10 villagers, it will let you choose who to kick. Just make sure you've spoken to that villager at least once & their house isn't currently being relocated.
-# (NOTE: If you have fewer than 10 villagers, you will need an open plot.)
Can someone clarify this step from the Asteriation Genepool Method to blue roses? I don't understand what the last step means. Do I clone (for example) 1110 red beta --> clone it again and then breed the clone with the 1110 red beta?
Yes if this is the method you're talking about
But I can also add if you get reds from step 4 set them into a different area and clone/ breed them to get better reds
Am talking about this one. Also there's no notes on how this is different to the 4-step method. English is my 4th language so sorry if I'm asking stupid questions
Yea you would clone the 1110 red to breed for the next step
I’m confused on the part where we have to invite them 3 separate times. Is that a span of three days or can it be three times in one day? Do we have to activate the amiibo three different times or just once?
You'll need to invite them on three separate days, so you'll need to use the amiibo three different times
in HHP, can you go back to the villager's default home theme if you choose "I have ideas!"?
I wanna change The outfits in the back of the outfitshop but it says I can only change them with my own designs , is their another way to remove them?
make them someone else's roommate, then move them out of the home and you get to use their order catalogue and whatnot
Ok so on the town tune maker thing, why are some notes lowercase and others uppercase if that can't happen in game?
Hi! How do I get iron? I just got the game yesterday, I’m not sure if that’s important though.
you need a shovel, and if you press A you can hit the rocks on your island
it'll drop items such as clay, stone, iron nuggets and gold nuggets
you can hit a rock up to 8 times in a row, but it pushes you back every time, so stand at one of the diagonal corners of the rock and dig 2 holes in the ground to prevent yourself from being pushed backwards
Okay, I dont have the recipe for a shovel yet, but thank you
ofc :)
Any type of axe also works! You likely won't get the maximum out of the stones, but it gets you going 
Thank you!

I'm helpless regarding island design and making things look good. I've tried looking at other player's islands and taking inspiration, but I don't want to just outright copy someone else's island design or anything. Does anyone recommend and YouTube videos/Reddit threads or something that is less of a "copy me and it'll look great" and more informative like tips on how to keep things from looking inorganic or cluttered? I've tried looking some up myself but the videos I find are usually just the first type that I mentioned which is more of a build tutorial than tricks...

Alrighty ty
URGENT
how do i get a villager to not leave the island? theyre alr in boxes so i need someone with an open slot to take them
i have NMTs, bells, ANYTHING to keep them
i didnt know where to post this cause its not a villager trade im sorry
i have no idea how this happened aaaaaa ;-;
if they are in boxes it's too late
they cannot move on their own though so you might have said yes for them to move out at one point
if it happens again you can "cancel" the move before they are in boxes, but never the day
You could ask in #player-services if someone can hold a villager for you. BE VERY CLEAR that you want the villager back asap
Be detailed in your message, and properly discuss in DMs with someone what your plan is
You could try #middleman-rules‼️ #request-a-middleman🛎️🙋♀️ but I don't know how soon anyone is available
thank you so much!! ill try my luck there :]
Hi what is that croaking noie coming from that I hear sometimes. I thought it was a frog but it appears not. And I can usually not find any bugs near it
It's a mole cricket! They're underground, so you'll need to dig with a shovel to find it
Ohhh
Thank you 👌
Another question : I have a free plot, if I invite an amiibo now they won't fill it out right, I need to wait 3 days or does the free plot change that?
The plot will likely autofill in the three days it takes to invite the amiibo character, but as long as you talk to the autofilled villager at least once after they move in, you can use the invited amiibo villager to kick them out.
Hey guys, is it true that if I'm being rude with a villager, he's more likely to ask to move out ?
In addition, once a villager moves out, is there a cooldown for the next villager ?
so if i put a straight line of red hyacinths next to a straight line of yellow hyacinths it will give orange ones sometimes yes?
not sure about being rude but a villager once said he was thinking of moving and i said ok bye and he moved out and not even a few days later a new one took its spot so thats what ik for that loll
Thank you
Bullying villagers does not increase their chance to ask to move. It's all rng. Though higher friendship does have a higher chance of interactions with one of those interactions being a move-out bubble. The difference isn't very significant though.
Once a villager moves out the cool down is 15 days I believe.
So it's in my interest to be friend with each villager I want to kick out of my island right ?
It can increase the odds a bit, but not really by a whole lot. It's really a luck game. They won't ask to move out if you never speak to them though. You gotta talk to them at least once.
Thank you for all these tips. It sucks that there's a 15d cooldown though, I don't want to time travel 😢
Without time travel, villager move out is very difficult. The patience can make it more satisfying though.
Yeah, I'll wait for now as I have a lot of turnips, waiting tomorrow to sell
I time travelled from 11pm to 5:30am next day and now some of my trees are smaller? 😭 I have some trees that are not fully grown (and I planted a fruit tree behind so they won’t grow anymore) but now they're smaller? I don't like to time travel but I did a few days ago and this did not happen. Can I fix this or do I have to let them grow again? Is this normal?
It can yes , but the best method would be red space red and continue with however many reds you want then plant yellows below the reds
Here is a example
Check for their amiibo online??? Also, if you're not the only one who plays animal crossing on your console, they may have asked another player who they are close with if they should move away and that player said yes.
#island-designs or #acnh-chat⛱️ would be the better places to ask
sorry, my bad
No problem
is there a specific day leif will spawn, i feel like i haven't seen him in a while and i need shrubs
.t npcschedule He should visit once every two weeks or so
Have you unlocked him on Harv's island
i think i'm like 50 hours into my first island and i haven't visited yet
.t commune
✨ Unlocking Harvey's Commune ✨
To unlock the Commune on Harvey's island, the following criteria must be met:
- K.K. Slider must have performed.
- You must have entered Photopia.
- You must have talked to Harv on his island.
Once you've met the criteria, Harvey will send you mail the next day, notifying you to meet on his island to start unlocking the co-op shops.
I would recommend reading the message above to unlock Harv's commune

is there a way to slow down the speed your flowers spread. i dont mind picking them up every one in a while but i feel as if im picking up two inventorys worth every single day
Put pathing or fences around them to kinda "gate" them in
would an invisible path work?
Yep! I use invisible paths for weeds, so I imagine it works for flowers too
awesome! thanks
Np :)
does anyone have advice on how to promote a tarantula spawning on your main island 😭
I never donated one and its one of the last bugs I need, but they seem to NEVER spawn
I just saw one but in the few seconds it took to grab my net it despawned!!!
but other than a few minutes ago, I haven't seen one in like a month
You could maybe remove flowers so you would be more likely to have ground-walking bugs. There is no tree-spawning bugs currently in the Northern hemisphere season.
But honestly I wouldn't recommend to alter your main island just for the tarentula.
I've an island full of furniture, flowers and trees but still come across at least 2-3 per week.
It is hard to find rare critters when you're specifically looking for them, but you'll eventually get it at an unexpected moment!
sometimes i dont see them for a while and then a few days ago i got 3 in an hour. you can try special islands
oh alright!! thank you so much, at this rate I honestly will probably start doing special islands LOL
tysm for all of yalls help!! its very appreciated

Hey Alll, need a quick question answered. I had purchased Happy Home Paradise about 2 years ago and never downloaded it on my OLED. I just got a Switch 2 and decided to rebuy a hard copy of ACNH S2 edition. Can I use the same code or does the S2 edition come with happy home paradise or does it no longer work?
use the account you bought the dlc on and it should work
I never used the code, should I redeem it now and will it matter if I haven't started playing the physical copy of the game first?
the code should work then
Thanks
hey i have ione in boxes and someone else has punchy in boxes, i really want punchy and they really want ione but neither of us have an open plot until one of those villagers are gone.. does anyone know any way to get around this D:
Unfortunately, you'd need a free plot for both
youre gonnahave to get another person involved i fear
ahghh okay thank you i thought so.. :')
what does NYP mean in trading lingo?
For the hotel do vip rooms disappear

Yes, the VIP Rooms will go away after a day

does anyone know what this item is called ?? I screenshotted it from a video of someone on a treasure island and i can’t figure out what it is by googling 
Maypole
Omg thank you
What fish are in the big tank with the piranha?
Heyy, can someone tell me…
As for inviting villagers to live on your island through amiibos…
I know you need to invite them to the campsite and craft them stuff 3 times. Does that have to be 3 days in a row or just 3 times in total?
Thanks in advance! 
3 days in total
is there a certain amount of clothes a villager can have in their "inventory" ?
24 iirc
if i don't play for some time, will my game delete itself or something?
can someone help me with what she used for the back area and behind the bamboo partitions
The pyramids? (On a second layer) Or the rattan wardrobes?
Yeah, I think the middle one is a different color one, but that's the only difference
thank u

Nope! The save has to be manually deleted through the data settings.
i assume it’s not all shirts and outfits right?
Included accessories, hats as well
Thank you!
Why can't I build this bridge? What do I need to change
You need to make the edges match more like this, if that makes sense
Thanks! I'll do that :)
.t bridges Here's more information on bridges
Tysm!
.t trees
🌳 Trees 🌲
Why are some of them not growing??
_ _
-
Insufficient Space: A sapling needs a clear 3x3 space around it to grow.
-
Overcrowding: They can't grow if there are more than 12 or so in a 9x9 area.
-
Invalid Tiles: They will not grow right next to cliffs, water, beaches, bridges, inclines, or buildings.
The Solution: Move some trees to a less crowded area to fully grow, then move them back to wherever you want.
how can i trade villagers? i know that they need to be in boxes but is it possible for another player to get them if a villager visits my campsite?
Campsite villagers can only be adopted by you. Visitors can't get them
ah okay tysm!
You're welcome
Is there any way to make weeds grow faster? Ive replanted a bunch of them so theyre all small but I want that overgrown look with them and watering doesnt seem to be doing anything? Is this just a wait and see situation?

Maybe customize a glow in the dark sticker?
Hey guys. Im getting back into acnh after a few years of being MIA from my villagers and im trying to sell like 2000 turnips. I bought them at like 97 i think but im not really sure what’s a good price to sell them at. I was trying to get a spike of 500 since im told its good but do you guys have any tips for buying and selling turnips?
You may find this helpful, for info on buying/selling turnips. There’s some helpful guides for tracking your prices patterns too. Anything over my buying price is profit to me but something like $300+ is usually considered high already. You can also take a look at #turnips-looking-for and #daisy-nookling-ads
https://chibisnorlax.github.io/acnhfaq/island-life/turnips/
If you're talking about just the design itself, you can choose "display as painting" to put the custom design on the wall, but it will kinda stick out of the wall a little bit and won't support the transparency of the design. But if you're wanting it to place it flush with the wall, and with transparency then like what CatRule2026 said, a glow in the dark sticker would probably be best.

is it possible to reset for a villager's photo? Ive been resetting the gifting and getting different items, so ik that part is possible, but is it different for the photo? (and ye Tangy is at max friendship)
.t flowers
🌷 Flower Phenotypes 🪻
These are ALL of the various phenotypes (colors & types) of flowers that you can obtain. ⠀
What do you mean exactly resetting? When a villager gifts you a photo, there is a 10-day cooldown before you can get it again, but you can get multiple ones from the same villager if it is what you meant
I'd assume so, since it's an rng gift possibility, so if you're successfully resetting for other gifts, I think eventually you'd be able to get the photo.
Could really use some help from someone that knows the in and outs of transferring an island from switch 1 to switch 2.
It’s typically the same process, though I believeeee it transfers over if you do a full data transfer as well
I have a specific question regarding the main resident,
When first loading the game, it asks which resident will you play as. I am wondering how this affects which account is the "main" resident.
I don’t think it does? I’m actually not sure-
I’d assume it doesn’t affect it
Maybe
I’m sorry I have no idea
So, you can change residents, but the account stays the main resident?
It's not very clear.
im assuming the main resident stays the same
if thats what ur askin
For example, on the switch 1, Account A was the main resident and is therefore resident A, and account B is resident B. On the switch 2, it asks account A which resident do you want to be? Resident A or B?
If selecting B, does that mean B is now the main?
On switch 2, if account B chooses resident A, are they now the main resident?
yeah cause there picking a different resident
It's basically asking which player you want to link that Nintendo profile to.
okay I see
So, you can switch which ACCOUNT is the main resident, but not what RESIDENT is the main resident. Yes?
yeah
Yes, that would be correct
Thank you very much
This may be a long one so I apologize. I am new to the game (been playing for like 1 week or so)
I am LOST. All it feels like is a grind. Gathering materials, selling them, occasionally crafting a new recipe etc. It feels a Lil repetitive. Any tips to make things more...fun?
I just finished paying off the 198,000 dollar housing debt
Is there anything I am missing/should be doing
Honestly, my advice is to take a break when it starts to tire you out. The game at its foundation is grindy. You're turning a deserted island into a paradise. It's tedious and hard work. To make it more fun for myself, I make up drama and lore. That way I am entertaining myself with villager interactions and creating a story. There isn't rly a way to make the grind more fun, but as long as you have a goal in mind to look towards, it at least makes the grind worth it.
Thank you!!! Don't get me wrong I really am enjoying it i just feel so behind idk why! 😭
I was having some fun trying to crossbreed some flowers, rn I am currently just gathering stuff to make hot items to sell. :))
question - have you got your resident services tent upgraded into a building yet? there’s more for you to work towards after you’ve done that :)
I do! I have the museum unlocked as well :))
Animal Crossing is a game meant to be played over the long term: it takes about a year just to complete the critters collections, participate in all the events, and collect the seasonal DIY recipes. Not talking about everything else that isn't locked behind specific seasons, but still take a while to achieve. Things unlock little by little!
Right now, it's easy to feel "behind" when social media is flooded with fully decorated islands, their dreamy villagers, beautifully furnished houses, and people having full catalogs and plenty of recipes. But these are people who've been playing for a long time (up to six years), more importantly, people who are deeply dedicated to the game to have stuck with it this long.
You're just getting started, in a few days or weeks, you'll have unlocked more QoL features, some recipes, and furniture, ideas will start flowing. You can already start watching some tips & tricks videos and learning what to do daily on your island to earn more objectives and, consequently, it could make you find the game more engaging. 😉
Cheers 💕 x thank you sm
I just got nintendo online and hopefully playing with friends will help make it more fun
hi whats the purpose of gyroids? are they just a collectable item?
They move in time to music you have playing and they make noises but besides that just decoration and collectible items
wheres the sticker suggestion channel and emoji
I believe that's what you're looking for right?
What channel do I go to to ask for island design suggestions? I am building a train and I don’t know how to end the track nicely, so I wanted to ask for help
Honestly, I'd say taking a break sometimes and doing something you like too, not just work. For example, you mentioned breeding flowers. I used to make different outfits for my characters and decorate my island (little did I know it would be useful later 😂 ) Don't worry, you'll get there!
Pheobe went to bed, im trying to get her back using a second player to beg her to stay, should i time travel back a day and try again until a thought bubble appears? 🐦🔥 
What fish are in the tank with the golden trout?
The golden trout is located in the river tank area on the first room of the fish wing, alongside the river, pond and "tropical" fish tanks
Specifically the rightmost area
Phoebe went to bed
Big sister villagers aren't really much of a morning 'animal' lol. I'm not sure if time travelling hours or a day back can convince her to stay(?)
.t flowers
🌷 Flower Phenotypes 🪻
These are ALL of the various phenotypes (colors & types) of flowers that you can obtain. ⠀
If you stay in the same in-game day (5 am to 5 am), you should be able to use another player to convince her to stay yes
can redd sell a duplicate genuine art piece??
Yes he can

when you get a villager from another island, what difference does it make when the villager is ungifted or gifted?
Some people prefer ungifted because you can only change their house interiors if you have the Happy Home Paradise dlc. Clothes you can reset through Isabelle
So if they are gifted then some of their gifted furniture will still be there?
So if you've gifted a villager a fish or something and they display it. It'll still be displayed on the new person's island
Yep
okay thanks!
Hiiii I have "simple wooden fenching" but I want them to be white, But for some reason I can customize their colors?
You need to craft 2 different kinds of fences then in the abd redeem nook miles is " customize in a flash"
Thank you!!
Just got back into animal Crossing is there a good way to farm nook miles? I used to just casually play the game.
I'd say your best bet is completing the regular achievements and continuing to complete the Nook Miles+ tasks
Good to know the only other thing I’m wondering is there a good way to replace villagers or make them leave?

hello ! i saw someone online say i can store more (albeit unusable) custom designs if i talk to the able sisters, is it true ? i cant figure it out
You cannot. You can get patterns from talking to Sable you can use to customize certain items, but this doesn't give you more custom design slots
Yes to be clearer, Sable patterns are stored in a different place. It is always nice to get them all as it offers extra patterns you can use alongside your dedicated 100 custom patterns slots (and 100 pros ones).
hey, does anyone know what the long bush type things + the potted plants are called in this photo ?
thank you so much oh my god i've been looking for these forever
No problem
at what point in the dlc can i start to redo my own villager’s home? i wanna redo my starter villagers home as soon as possible
Once you have completed 30 homes in HHP and have the DJ KK festival!
Do Villagers with edited homes via HHP still have their furniture inventory, technically? So while they can't display their gifted items, does it still go in their inventory? What is it again, 32 items?
If so, what does that mean for when you adopt someone with an HHP home then? They'd bring that hidden inventory? I assume nothing from that DLC edited house is taken though.
Honestly I was always under the impression that their furniture resets anyways, but I just learned they don't (fully). I know whatever ends up in the recycling box, they don't take at least. But of what I read, the only "furniture" they seem to bring are creatures. Do they actually bring large and tabletop furniture?
Yes, they'll still have their gifted furniture. When you edit a home via HHP, it’s basically just a static layer over everything. So when they move, that HHP layer disappears and their house resets to its default look, but they still carry all their gifted furniture with them and can eventually display it
i'm having a lot of trouble getting the golden roses. i have the watering can and they should have space and they won't spawn, i don't know what i'm doing wrong
Hello! I’m new to the game as of today (about time my goddddddd) and it’s 20:17 here in Scotland and it seems I’ve exhausted my options on stuff to do atm. If I come on later will stuff have respawned or do I need to wait until tomorrow now? Cause I can’t travel on the ticket and says airport open tomorrow.
Thank you 🫶🏽☺️
how do you have your black roses placed?
like this, they have space in all eight tiles surrounding them. they were next to each other but i couldn't even get the black ones to spawn then so i moved them apart
for now you may have to wait until tomorrow :(
A new day starts at 5am, so then everything will be refreshed and the official next day starts
Thanks love! That sounds good to me or I’ll get far too addicted hahaa
Thank you guys 🤍🫶🏽
it could just be a case of being unlucky. i assume you’re watering them with the golden watering can?
i would also move them to a more empty area so you have more space to grow them, especially when you get more black roses
yes :( i've gotten two black roses now and no gold ones. i've been watering them by standing directly on each one and everything, i guess it would be just my luck...
i will do that as well though, thank you :)
Hmm. Does Isabelle empty the furniture inventory?
i water my roses by standing one spot in front of them. i’ll share a picture in a sec
You only need to water the black roses once with a golden watering can to have the gold flag turned on. You can switch back to a normal watering can until you get one gold rose from each black rose you have watered. Having visitors water them will also up the chances of the flowers spawning new flowers. The gold rose will eventually come through on one of the spawns.
I can confirm it's luck only; if you watered it once with a golden can, they can produce 1 golden rose, just need patience 
i've been watering them for weeks </3 i'll keep trying, thanks everyone
nope she doesn't, you can sort of reset if if you have the dlc, but the closet inventory is a pain to reset
onced you've made enough progress you can decorate their home so it "hides" most of what there is in their closet
it gives a somewhat default house back if someone adopts, but doesn't erase eveything, especially not clothing
Oh, that. 😅
Yeah basically the context is I've been gift bombing everyone with their homes already redecorated, running under the assumption that they don't take their furniture inventory. Clothing is fine I always attempt to give a full inventory of clothing to people whenever they adopt my villagers. But I wasn't banking on their furniture 
Ugh I guess I can only give people warnings at this point. I still like playing the game pretty unrestricted, ultimately
good luck!!

Ahhh ty
it’s locked behind the storyline
I think there are some craftable ones, and then there are some you could trade for. I don't know which ones are which off the top of my head.
My island is four stars I just haven’t played since the update.

Here's a list of all the furniture you can cook at
Hmmm I must have already redeemed it
if you have just get any kitchen item or go to your villagers home with a kitchen, you should be able to cook if you have the ingredients
you need some veggies or fruits. wheat and sugarcane
Okay thanks, I bought a gas range since I had it registered
i also suggest that you buy the basic cooking recipes at nook’s cranny if you haven’t yet

How do I get the boat guy I have him on New leaf but I'm not sure how to get them on this game since there is no old mayor
Kapp'n shows up once you get a three star island and KK Slider has performed!
Okay
^^ Beat me to it! It's the next day though, not same day
What does three star island mean??
Because I have five villagers in here and I'm almost done paying golf finally my house I mean I only started like 3 days ago but still
That's your island rating, talk to Isabelle and she'll tell you about it
Isabelle will start talking about island evaluations once your campsite villager has moved in (6th villager)
You'll want to cover the island in flowers, furniture, trees, etc. Bridges and inclines help a ton too
Also funny thing is I just had Apple move in today and like she still moving in and everything but I got one of her messages in a bottle
The bottles are random but that's super a sweet coincidence 💕
YOU CAN COOK!?!?
yes you can. you have to unlock
it first. there are tons of recipes you can make with veggies, fruits and fish
So cool so cool
Tex can be found right???
I like how he called me brochacho when i talked to him on acnl
Universal like one of the only villagers I liked as well as one of the first ones to move in
does anyone know how many times it can take ?
There’s no telling how many times it’ll take to get a bubble since it’s RNG (aka randomized). You just have to keep repeating the process until you get a move-out bubble on a villager you’d like 
🥹 so what if ive been trying to move out this one villager for the past 10 hours in total..
Hi are we allowed to ask for villagers in boxes in this thread ? Or is that not allowed
#villager-trade is better for looking for villagers in boxes! Just be sure to read the pins!
Perfect! Thank u
That’s not uncommon unfortunately, a lot of folks usually spend several IRL hours trying to get a move-out bubble. You can try and “reset” your RNG by syncing back to real time and starting to process over again, that might help. Otherwise just keep trying and you’ll get one eventually!
There's one advantage to not unlocking cooking until you absolutely need to: you won't dilute the villager crafting pool with cooking recipes.
So if you're still aiming for a DIY recipe, you have a higher chance of your villager crafting it without 50-something cooking recipes added into the mix.
Personally I didn't mind at the time but it did mean that I still don't have certain recipes 6 years later lol. If you're like me who prefers not to trade as much as possible I think I could've lived without food for a little longer.
Some food recipes have a nice decorative flow, but if you're just starting the game, I would also advice you to skip it until you feel to have enough DIY recipes. Cooking was introduced 1.5 years after the game has been released so, most of people already collected many dupe from their washed bottles and villagers, and lost interest into doing it, so it was a nice upgrade to bring that feature back. But for new players yeah, it can be far more annoying than useful to halve your chances of collecting DIY recipes.
Ugh even for old players like me. There's 2.0 regular diy recipes I only got just now. Open wooden shelves eluded me for this long lol
at least 🙂
Lone wanna leave 😔 I don’t know if to say yes or no
Anyone had a successful run with this method? I've been time travelling for a week and I haven't had a villager think
Yes it works well for me, not sure what might be going on with yours
Does anyone know-if I get a villagers photo and then have them move out if I move them back in and gift them a lot can I get their photo again?
Does kk slider affect this in any way? Some of them have been trying to talk to me and giving me gifts because they're excited to see him
Yes, villagers are less likely to want to move out on Saturdays and events
Yes, in fact, you can get the villagers photo multiple times even if they don't move out, but there's a 10 day cooldown between each time you can get it again
Oh ok ty!
How many villagers do you have fully moved in?
7
It may be luck. As long as you have at least 6 villagers, they are able to ask to move out. If I'm using the move out method and if I don't see a bubble after 15 days of the day-by-day part I'll just start the process over again.
Wait a day and also make sure you are using the island representative account if there are more players
You should get terraforming immediately after KK, then the hotel and Kapp'n will be unlocked the next day
can we terraform and decorate other ppls islands from the new update now?
Only on slumber islands unfortunately
I got 3 stars but i didn't unlock anything. Any Help?
UGH that sucks
they just answered your question
but they didn't ping me so i thought they were talking to someone else
No they weren’t haha
I'm just sometimes stupid
I am too sometimes dw
also when i unlocked 3 stars and saw it i was screaming in happines :)
Aweee haha
hahaha
when does KK come
Every Saturday after the first gig
Unless there's an event, then he'll come by Sunday or Monday
what is "gig"?
-# also i just crashed out over ChatGPT btw
Concert
K.K. will come the day after Isabelle says you have 3 stars. After that he's there every Saturday as said before
yep, i forgot from english lessons

No worries, you're doing great!
Aww, thank you!
Okay I just did some more research. This is about villager furniture inventory and what transfers when they get adopted. My sources are the Villager Furniture Replacement Guide https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Iql5J5BXG-SuJvtw_duLZzjIw5myGcFnEL-I3BSR_CE/edit?usp=drivesdk @!_ and this guide https://chibisnorlax.github.io/acnhfaq/villagers/gifting/
There's a reason why I thought furniture didn't transfer, and why I only kept reading about random bugs and creatures from anecdotes all over the Internet: housewares (aka floor furniture) does not transfer to the new island but miscellaneous furniture (aka items that can go on surfaces) do. So gifting them, say, robot heroes and beds shouldn't matter. 
The one thing I can't figure out for real is Isabelle (with HHP dlc) empties out the furniture inventory. Sure it reset it to default, but do they still have those items in their inventory? I guess I could just experiment.
Otherwise it seems like the only way for me to not annoy people that take my villagers is to just houseware gift bomb them 32 items...cuz right now I'm sure their entire inventory is food 
I bought this game and I’ve played it for a max of 3 hours and I’m having trouble getting back into it (I’ve had it for like 5months). I had been super excited to own and play this game but idk it was just super overwhelming and at the same time very slow paced. Any tips?

How can i get the Wedding items?

thank youu 
does anyone know what the two circled items are ? 
more of a ACNH app question but what do the stars mean?
It just means you're adding it to your "favorites" list, which you can then easily refer back to later
if i move my switch 2 island to a diff switch (not a 2) will there be problems? Cuz its the switch 2 vers of the game 🤔
Ok ty!
.t transfer // No, the process simply just transfers the island. Your island isn’t tied to a specific switch model, so the only differences you might notice are related to hardware (like performance or visuals), not the island itself.
✨ How to Transfer Your Island to Another Switch ✨
- Download the ACNH Island Transfer Tool from the eShop on both Switches.
- Make sure ACNH is updated to the latest version on both consoles.
- Launch the Island Transfer Tool on both consoles & follow the on-screen instructions.
- Once the transfer finishes, launch the game on the new Switch.
- When asked about using existing resident data, select “Existing data.”
- Select the name of the villager you were playing as on the previous Switch. Make sure this matches the same Switch user account you were using on the previous Switch.
-# (If you're transferring more than one character, make sure each character matches the correct Switch user account when logging in. They’ll only need to do this the first time they sign in on the new Switch.)
For more info, see Nintendo support.
Is there a "fandom" name for the items with "special" images like the lucky money/lucky envelope, souvenir chocolates etc? Since there's categories like furniture, food/drink etc
can i ask questions here about playing on the PC? I got a capturecard and connected them but there is no sound and if i want to share it in DC its like mirrored..
You can probably find them all under the "Other items section of the catalog.ac website".
so I’m coming back to the game after several years, and it’s been so long that I very much need to just restart completely. I have access to two consoles, but only one physical copy of the game—is it possible to keep/transfer any of my old villagers to a new island if I can only run the game on one console at a time?
You can't with just one copy. You could request help from our Middlemen, you can read more here #middleman-rules‼️
am I remembering correctly that that kind of online stuff requires a paid nintendo subscription? I can’t afford to spend irl money right now lol
Yeah you would need the paid subscription sadly
ah well, not the end of the world I guess. thanks for the info
You could check if the free trial is available to you. I hear it refreshes occasionally
When going to a treasure island how do you just catalogue items without taking them back to your island? I'd rather do that and spend bells on it because I prefer the legit vanilla gratification of building my island it's just that finding certain items can be really hard
I only ask because I thought I saw that dropping items breaks the island
just pick up the items then drop them. they’ll be in your catalog right away
if they are reorderable in nook shopping, you can buy them when you go back to your island through the app or nookstop
They don't mess up the modded items on the ground?
they don’t
Gotcha. Thanks for the info! :D
it depends on the traffic of that treasure island that’s why it crashes and not because of dropping items
It can break the island, since they're automatically set to regenerate the items, so dropping them doubles them and can glitch things when everyone leaves the island. Please don't drop items on treasure islands unless the owner specifically says it's a catalogue island. Most treasure islands have trash cans you can use to dispose of any items you picked up but don't want to take home. (Also generally most TIs unless specified, don't allow cataloguing)
It doesn't crash the islands though, just makes it so that the owner has to go in and manually reset everything.
Is it possible to move a thought bubble about moving out to another villager even when they’ve already confirmed they’re going to leave?
No if you used the thought bubble and asked a villager to leave the bubble goes on a cooldown
Anyone know what this is (the flower thing)? I havent played in years and decided to visit a dream island while I rebuild mine.
Could i get any info on 3 stars?
As far as i know, it is not an existing item
You mean how to get 3 stars?
To get three stars, some good tips are to put A LOT of fencing, furniture and plants everywhere
(by plants I mean trees and shrubs and flowers)
I believe that's the Silent Princess from the Zelda collab!
When was the collab?
Oh
It was added in 3.0
Like the new update with the hotel?!
Y’all I’m struggling 😰 what the hell is a cliff top river …. I gotta catch this golden trout and string fish
Clifftop River is the waterfall ending where the waterfall.. falls.
I hear you but I don’t understand still.
I'll send photo
Yeah
They added Splatoon, Zelda, and (for some reason) Lego items lol
Does this count?
This should work yeah
And from my photo, I’m in spring right??
I think so, why?
Can’t catch these damn fish. Needs golden trout and stringfish
Lol omg same
I’m convinced that I don’t have a cliff top river since I’ve been fishing all day and still haven’t gotten anything
Or am I just… unlucky
Updating acnh now.. playing for the first time in ages so kinda nervous
Ok the game is loading
Oooo exciting!!!!
I will text a pic
How long has it been since you played ?
She kinda cute
No wait she's a tourist thank God my lovely villagers are still here
Ok time to play will go afk for a while bye guys
Following up on this. So does Isabelle empty all 32 items of a villager's furniture inventory when you use her HHP, home reset ability? I can't seem to find an answer.
can you get sahara items from anywhere that isn't sahara, her restocking every monday is really slow
just trading I'm afraid
Does anyone know why the slot I had empty for a villager automatically sold? Because I’m a little annoyed that it did that on its own.
If a day has passed it automatically fills
OK, that is a really dumb feature because that means I’m gonna have to go through the whole last process of getting rid of them again. So basically you just need to hoard tickets until you wanna go try to find the villager you want.
If you’ve visited other people or they’ve visited you, it will fill immediately with a character that has left their island. If you’ve never played with anyone else, it will randomly fill within like 3 days I think
Unfortunately yeah
This is gonna make it a lot harder for me to find villagers. I actually want. I don’t play as much as some other people I rotate between like a few games so I can’t just grind a bunch of tickets.
If every other villager you have is one you want to keep, that will be difficult because the most recent villager invited to the island cannot ask to leave
If you have nso you can trade for tickets!
How far does my friend have to get into the game before I can add her as a friend in-game. We're already friends on Switch Online, but her Nookphone doesn't have "Best Friends" app yet and I can't send her mail.
I’m pretty sure she would have to unlock resident services for that! You also have to have visited her island or she has to visit yours first
That should trigger the best friends app
I need to get my Nintendo switch online again. It ran out a while ago if anything I might be waiting for when I get a switch 2
before I get online again also I don’t even know if I have anything to trade for that stuff
If you have the DLC, if you spend over 20 minutes actively decorating a villager's vacation home, they may gift you a copy of one of the wallpapers, floorings, or rugs you used in their vacation home, including Saharah-exclusive ones. I used this method to get the Saharah items I was missing.
It's time-consuming and probably a bit unethical lol but here's the entire walkthrough of how I exploited this mechanism:
- Take the orders of the villagers whose requests would unlock in the HHP catalog the flooring/wallpaper/rugs which you want for yourself. (You can find this information on some sites like Nookipedia or Catalogue.ac)
- Basically decorate nothing (other than opening the required furniture), only place the flooring/wallpaper/rug that you wish to obtain, just make sure to move one piece of furniture at least every 59 seconds for 20 minutes, so that the game doesn't register you as being inactive
- When completing the order, the villager should have some dialogue about how you took your time/went to such great lengths for them/etc, it means you did successfully make the game think you did heavy decorating and deserve an additional reward
- Leave the plot, then come back and chat with the villager. They will give you a random copy of one the flooring/wallpaper/rugs you used in their home as thanks.
If you don't want to leave villagers with empty vacation homes (though you can always fix those later), you can also do normal decorating, while trying to also only use flooring/wallpaper/rugs you want to get from them
What is that larger item that is holding the bread and pitcher?
Thank you!
You lose 12 750 if you buy then sell 😭 
good lord
I didn't know this but it makes sense i did get some good stuff from them
Hi! I need some help please🥲. I wanna do a slumber island with my best friend, but it won't work. Anytime I lay down in my bed I only have the option to visit island via dream adress. (My service center is already built, I have at least 5 villagers, I have nintendo online and I did everything right according to google) Does anybody know what I can do😵💫?
.t slumber here's some requirements and info for you. From your information I'm assuming you don't have a 3 star island nor the hotel?

hello, when can i edit my island? like moving houses, stores and such?
context, I'm new to the game. I'm continuing the island full control to preserve old stuff/ memory from the first owner and such though, I don't know where i am in the "story line"? i really just wanna make a town and do some terraforming like I've seen online hehe any tips and tricks would be lovely~! I wanna keep this island up and running.
Hi, continue the main line and you'll unlock all those things 😉
Buildings and villager houses (except for the resident services itself / village center place) can be moved by talking to Nook when you will get the resident services building. You will be able to move one building per day, in exchange to a rather small bells cost.
Island remodeling tools to change cliffs and water cells are something you will get post-credits, so after you got ||your first K.K slider's show|| on your island.
Can u still get zelda stuff and yes how to get them
If you've scanned Zelda themed amiibo they are in the abd promotional tab
hello ! what should i change to be able to put a vertical bridge there ? im thinking filling in the top and bottom land and destroying 2 tiles of cliffs on the right or left ? im worried about the incline and the sand idk if tom nook will let me bridge that
thank you so much~!!
Edit: I just saw there is the beach just below on south, so it won't be possible at all.
Bridge require 4 cells on width and 3 to 5 cell on length to be placed on, but you can't put them so close to a cliff, neither to a staircase.
They also need at least two extra cells in "front" of each part to be able to cross it.
There is nothing you can do in this specific setup without changing everything.
If you really wish to keep a bridge here, you could always mimic a 2x4 fake one placing planks custom patterns, but you will still have a small dirt border around it.
Something like this:
so its telling me i cant rn is it bc its too close to the sand or the incline or both
Because of all the listed points, here the message is very broad but I guess it is because there are too many problems at the same time sadly 😕
On your last screenshot it may be because it is both too close from the beach and too close from the incline. The cliffs look okay, except for the one in the top-left corner
yep however i just noticed i got 4 water squares. minimum bridge size is three right
t. bridges : 3 to 5 on length and 4 on width yes
The horizontal bridges rules are the same for the vertical bridges
how do i put clothing on these display mannequins (right)
I don’t think you can, you can use the hotel mannequins, otherwise they are sold at Nook Cranny’s but only one variation
Clothes will automatically populate on the display mannequins once the store opens
If those are your HHP mannequins after your done decorating the room and the concert plays wardell hangs clothes on them
How can I get more NMT in the fastest way possible? I need 30 iron for this shop and it’s taking forever …
can flies spawn when it is raining?
Nope
Honnestly the fastest way is to trade online, for example on Nookazon. materials like wood, stone, gold, fish baits... always are in high demand. You can get many NMT from them as it became a second popular currency alongside bells.
If you're playing exclusively in single player though, it is indeed a bit hard. NMT cost 2000 NM and the only way to farm them is by making NM main achievements and NM quick tasks.
thats what i thought, thanks!
Thanks! Also, the only bugs on my island are tiger butterflies, white butterflies, and yellow butterflies. Am I doing something wrong or how do I find different ones?
Those are the most common ones in March, but there are other, not so rare, but a bit less common.
You can find some directly on flowers, other on ground,and that depends on the time. Keep an eye on it. There is still none on trees though this month.
This is for sure a mistake, all other sources say they don't
there's some sources that say they do and some that don't - nookipedia is almost always right but i'd err on the side of caution and assume they don't ^^
If you have turnips in your pocket on something like a thursday (when selling prices are bad) and time travel backwards to like wednesday (when selling prices were good), they'll spoil.
But what happens if you rewind all the way back to Sunday and buy more turnips, go to Wednesday (where you already saw the selling price was good) and sell them then?
Does it work to keep the price the first time you saw what they are for that Wednesday, or do the turnip prices get set for the whole week on Monday instead of Sunday, thereby making that plan impossible?
I don't know about turnip prices being set on a certain day but I do know that if you time travel backwards, the price will change
will your island rating change the next day or as soon as you solve the problem?
Isabelle provides updates in real time, so no need to wait for the next day!
What is nookazon?
will clothes at able sisters swap out seasonally like some items at nook's cranny?
some items are season-exclusive (for example, festivale stuff around festivale, halloween costumes in october, holiday sweaters in december, etc.) but other than that the selection usually changes daily or weekly 
ah okay! thank you!
ohhh okay
It's a popular trading website. I will say though, that prices are inflated to the sky, and there are more bots than people who are listing, but if you list you usually get a human response.
the Nook bot sent me this in the #pokemon ''⚠️ @Piesaiah, that link is not whitelisted in this channel!'' when i tried to send an Alcremie pokemon GIF
Gifs are disabled due to the risk of malicious content 
what are the star furniture items called? i assume it's a diy from celeste
I think it's this
i think so, thank you! `time to cross my fingers and hope i get it
if i did the arched stone paths as placements for my rock as seen above, would the one that i’m standing in front of be too close to the water?
Are tailors tickets tradable? I had to stop interacting with Label whenever she visits because it feels repetitively boring.
How big can you expand your island?
Yes, it's too close to the water (to test you can try to dig holes in all 8 squares around the planned spot, you'll see you can't dig the corner)
How does trades work?
Out? Not at all, island size is fixed. Up? 3 tiers, but you can only climb up to the second tier.
To be able to trade, you first need the Nintendo Online subscription. If you have that, you can check our trade channels for items and villagers you want, or offer things you want to sell. In DMs you can agree with another member for the price of things and arrange the pick up or drop off
Bells or Nook Mile Tickets are offered the most for the trade payments
Does anyone know how the Island rating works??? I have a 5-star Island and know that you can have under 15 items lying around without affecting your rating. Since I had shooting stars last night I went to Isabelle this morning and my rating dropped to 4-stars due to clutter. After I picked up all the star fragments it went back to 5-stars
I thought naturally dropped Items dont count?
I guess since shooting stars only happen so often, and they only spawn the next day if you make a wish, causing them to spawn on your beaches, they aren't treated as "naturally dropped" since the player caused them to spawn. That's just my theory on it.
yeah i have been trying to look for some answers online but that sounds like a good theory
does cj/flick buy fish/bugs for more than nooks cranny?
They both do! CJ and Flick will buy your critters at a 50% increase compared to the Nooklings
Oh I had no idea it was that much, thank you!
If I close the gate can visitors leave still?
They will leave automatically
i see ty
Whats a good way to keep items when restarting an island? I wanna keep the nintendo switch item and some cute stuff i got huhu
If you wish to keep some items when restarting, you could ask our Middlemen to hold them for you as you restart. You can read more here: #middleman-rules‼️
whats the name of this barrier thing ? 😣
tysm!
I bought some duplicated arts from Redd's, that looks like genuine articles. Is there some way inside the game for me verify if it is really genuine?
I know this was already asked but I can't find it- what's missing?
Museum
Show them to Blathers and he will tell you.
If you already have the piece on your island the back art has a paper on its back
Could someone help please?? I'm trying to fill it up but IDK how
Looks like "Netting Better" is missing which is catching 5 wasps in a row without running away or getting stung
Sadly not
If it is a fake one, will he tell me? Not only to verify the information near the piece?
Wow, that's a good way, is there something like this about statues?
Not in game but you can google the name of the statue real vs fake
Ahh, okay! Thank you guys 
Yes
I’ve got a question for all you master anglers. I’ve spent 100+ fish bait on the cliff river, and have gotten tons of stringfish and golden trout but not a single char. Does anyone have advice on how to catch a char??
If you’re in the northern hemisphere then the window to catch one is from 4PM-9AM, make sure you’re trying to fish in that timeframe. They have a relatively low spawn rate, so as long as you’re in that timeframe it’s just a matter of time before you catch one. It has a medium shadow, if that helps. Good luck
https://catalogue.ac/i/2239
seems like I'm just unlucky then when it comes to char then, thank you nikki!
Question about using amiibo cards. I have a legit animal crossing amiibo card for Iggly and when I tried scanning into campsite, it said I can’t chat with iggly right now.
Any ideas the issue?
Is he in your campsite or at your hotel?
Oh my. He is in hotel! 😭
That's why lol. Glad it got figured out so quickly 🤣
I wanted to get him into an empty plot! Crapppppp
Tysm! 😆 🤦♀️
Even if it autofills, the amiibo can kick out whoever moves in as long as you talk to them at least once
Oh nice! Thank you!
Np!
How do you download the gifs so you can post them on this server?
Can anyone tell me why trees won’t grow on one side of my entrance? 😭
maybe because the trees in front of them are preventing them from growing? try moving the saplings to somewhere else, letting them grow, and putting them back
What does LF and FT mean?
LF = looking for
FT = for trade
They basically can't grow if there are more than 12 trees in a 9x9 area.
You can make them grow elsewhere and place them back to their original location when they are fully grown
hello cna anyone ttell my how to evict one villager?
like target one in specific and evict him
.t moveout this might help
✨ How to Move Out Villagers ✨ ⠀
Read Yue's Comprehensive Move-Out Handbook to fully understand how the thought bubble move-out process works.
You can also use NookPlaza's Move Out Calculator to predict the chances of your villagers moving out based on your friendship levels.
how long can it take?
my friend has been using this method for like 5-6 hours and nothing happened
Yeah, unfortunately it's not uncommon. People may spend several hours trying to get a move-out bubble. If you don't get a bubble on a villager after 2 weeks of going day-by-day I usually start over the process
I know it can be frustrating, but just keep trying and you’ll get one eventually!
thanks mate
Hi! Curious, does it rain in your island almost every day? Is it just me, or others are experiencing that too... Do you know the reason why this is occurring? Really curious.
It depends on your own luck, there are 24% chance of having a rainy day and 12% heavy rainy day during late winter/early spring (current period in the Northern hemisphere):
https://nookipedia.com/wiki/Weather#In_Animal_Crossing:_New_Horizons_2
On my island it is the opposite, I didn't have rain since a while.
what item?
danggg it’s dlc, do yk any similar free items?
It's taller but maybe... https://catalogue.ac/i/d653
I‘m currently trying to transfer my island from my Lite to Switch 2.
Juuust wondering, is it possible to transfer it back to the Lite at a later point?
Yes, you should be able to transfer it back via the Island Transfer Tool
How do I add my island onto the bot in #bot-commands ?
can someone tell me all the items in this picture? i wanna try recreate it 
All of it? Your best bet is to just visit that Dream Address and visit yourself
Though I believe the stars on the background is custom for the glow in the dark stickers
The plants definitely schleferra (spelling), and both bears are the two middle sized ones. They're using a custom for the bag stack too to make them look like pillows
i dont have Nintendo online at the moment 💔
how do you customise rugs?
They just draw it/grab it online from someone and place it on the ground
ohhh okay
The bag stacks you can substitute with the floor pillows, and I believe the regular glow in the dark sticker diy has a stars version
alright
Glass holder with candle, kids tent stacked bags( customizeed), mama bear, Papa Bear , party lights arch, projection screen, pretzels ,moms pen stand to name some
Scattered papers
tysm 😭
Twelve grape dish
To add to the list:
Ivory round Mat
Cushion
Hanging lightbulbs
Milkshake
Wooden music box
Blue painted wood wall
Common flooring
thank you!
Hello can anyone help 😞 I just paid my house loan, but before that I invited the cuteessstt villagers to my island. I haven't built any house plots yet because I don't have a store yet. Once I built the house plots, will the same villagers come? 🥹
Yes they will move in as part of the 3 homes quest
When will the bunny event take place?
What is the L button for?
To move easily when placing fences / terraforming before you would need to reposition urself each time
Thanks
Bunny day will take place on April 5th this year
Thank you!!
Heyy uhh just wondering, what happened to the villager-trade channels? Did something change?
Nvm found it, tyy
Thank you!
Hello! How many shakes of a tree do I have to do in order for it to drop a furniture
One shake is enough. There's 2 trees that drop furniture on your island per day
And 5 wasps, so be careful
So basically animal crossing tree roulette?
Less of a roulette if you hold your net while shaking trees. You automatically turn to the wasps, so just press A and done
Yeah but if you're unprepared 😅
I always carry medicine, kinda weird though that you need a wasp nest to make it especially after a sting
Btw in other topics you can share stuff that is not related to animal crossing right?
Yes that's right
Thank you
Wait you can MAKE MEDICINE?! I was buying it off Timmy and Tommy!!
Yes
Yeah you can
No way
I've lost so much money buying off those little scammers
Wait where do you get the DIY
If you get stung, go to a villager, they'll be shocked and give you the diy
May depend on the personality? I used to think only the Sisterly gave the diy, but recently the Jock gave me it instead
Ig
Do you have to be in their house or outside? Does it matter? Are you more likely to get it in one place more than the other?
I'm not sure honestly
hi quick question: when does the cherryblossom petals come? Northern Hemisphere
what do i use dream bell vouchers for?
April 1st
To sell at Nook's cranny
hey how do u place like rugs outside?
You can't. They're meant to be placed indoors.
aww...

how do you get paths and stuff to make your island look better
Go to #custom-design-help🎨 and check out some designs and pathways to make your island more lively. Hope that helps! 
Kk came to my island for the first time today. When will i get the hotel?
It'll be the next day as long as you have the museum upgraded to a building as well
do u guys think placing a bunch of flowers and trees on my island is a good idea
Idk if this deserves to go here but I'm tryna change to my current island as i restarted my island for contact my island is right now called Petunia but it dont show up?
You need to relink your game with Nook Link. You do that by pressing the minus button on the title screen and select Nook Link. After that you can change it in the app
Quick question to completing the diy crafting for the hotel what is the max number of items to craft in order to complete it just curious
Okay im gonna try that when im home again
whats the best way to decorate your island before getting the island editor
You mean the relative "DIY Items Needed!" nook miles? It's 500
Thank you. I am close to getting up to 150 I just was not sure how long it would go. I finished up the other two 3.0 achievements
can one build 10 bridges and 10 inclines or is it 10 in total for both?
10 of each
thank you!
Yes you need to to get a good rating
It says i have no loan but my vouse isnt expanding
How many rooms do you have?
Have you talked to Tom Nook about continuing to expand your house?
I forgot I had to do that
Yes, once you talk to him about that it'll trigger a house expansion and you'll gain another loan to pay off
yall can someone help me get a three star island...
you need at least 8 villagers, build at least 2 bridges and 2 inclines, and place scenery like 100+ flowers, 50+ pieces of fencing, and over 50 items of furniture. Make sure to get rid of weeds and other clutter on your island as well
tyyy
i’ve been breeding blue hyacinths together for a week to make purple ones, but it’s not working. any tips? i know the layout im using is working because it’s producing a lot of other hybrids
.t breeding | Are you sure you got your blue hyacinths from two (1-1-0) orange ones, and not from two white ones (or wrong orange ones)?
🌷 Breeding Paths 🪻
This chart contains the shortest paths to every hybrid, starting from the seeds you purchase from Nook's Cranny or Leif. ⠀
ahh i didn’t know there was a difference. i got them from a friend so i have no idea. i’ll try making new blue ones from two oranges! thank you!
what do you mean by “wrong orange ones”?
Yeah, 0-0-2 blue hyacinths can only produce blue ones
Though 0-1-2 blue hyacinths you can find on rare island can also produce purple ones
I'm checking it but apparently you can't have another genes set of orange ones that produce blue hyacinths, so if you get one from two orange it would necessary be a blue one with the right genes
If you have YouTube search " acnh 25% purple hyacinth" and watch the top video
that makes sense, thank you for the help!!
If you want to know more about genes and what each flower can produce, you can play with https://gardenscience.ac/
thanks! it’s so interesting how intricate the programming is with flower genes
Is there a site or resource where you can check the typical "going rates" for certain villagers? I haven't tried to trade any in years 🤣
I would say, filtering by "average price-desc" the villagers list on Nookazon creates a natural list of most popular ones:
https://nookazon.com/products/villagers?orderBy=bells-desc
But concerning the price itself, from experience, it varies a lot. People are able to suggest only some bells, and other promise several millions with plenty of extra NMT, there are no actual rule.
The trend on #villager-trade is more ethical I think, as it is often the quickest one to answer that get the villager in boxes.
Okay thank you!
how do people get wheat, sugarcane, or whatever cooking ingredients in the game? i have diy recipes+, a kitchen, basically everything except proper ingredients
You can buy them from Leif or you can occasionally find them on kappn tour islands or trading if you have Nintendo switch online
Hello 👋, I’m new here.
Currently wanting to get my most wanted villagers. But I know you gotta go hunt for them. Thing is I don’t wanna bc it’s over 400+ …….
So I’m thinking of getting these amiibo cards for the ones I want.
So, can I progress through the game until they come in or does some villagers stay permanently?
Also, how many amiibo cards can I use on one island (save file) ?
No villagers are permanent, you can always replace them.
There is also no limit on the amount of Amiibo you can use, but you can only have up to 10 villagers living on your island.
In order to invite a villager using their Amiibo card, you would need to invite them 3 times at the campsite, on 3 different days. They will eventually ask to join your island, and you will be able to select which villager you want to replace with that one if you already reached 10 villagers.
Ah, music to my ears.
I thought I was gonna have to hunt for them…….oooof
I appreciate the info
Thanks
Well…. Music to my eye balls 👀 ….whatever that means….
Thanks again
If I time travel a few days forward to get a villager I really want, will they still move in if I reset my switch time to current?
Yes
Assume that in the game, nothing can be undone by TTing back
I have a quick question, how do you get Sable to talk to you more?
Do you just talk to her every day?
that’s what i did and it worked
Okkk I'll just do that
would it still be possible to connect with other players even if one has a Nat D type internet connection?
whats the best way to get a three star rating
becuz i have two free houses and my island has alot of nice looking trees an all and a bunch of flowers
fencing and furniture is essential too
You can talk to Isabelle on your island she will give you tips, follow them
Oh wait you don't have Isabelle yet oops
Just craft, buy (and get from the ATM in NookMiles) furniture to display on your island.
And plant shrubs, flowers, and loads of trees
You'll get there eventually 😉
Oh and also build bridges and ramps, IDK if if helps your island rating but it's never a bad thing
Hope this helped 🙂
.t nattypes // You most likely are going to have some trouble, but might be able to play with someone with NAT type A though!
🌐 NAT Types 📡
- Depending on your NAT type (Network Address Translation), you may find it hard to connect to other players via online play.
- Typically, those with NAT types A (which can connect to all types above F) and B are the best connections to have and can therefore connect to most players.
- If you have NAT type C or below, you may have trouble connecting and need to adjust your WiFi router.
- You can check your NAT type by going to System > Internet > Test Connection.

i'm so sorry, i know i asked about this just recently, but i'm not having any success at all with getting the golden roses. my island is 5 stars (i don't know if that's a requirement outside of getting the watering can), ive been using the golden watering can and watering each black rose individually, they're set up with plenty of room to spawn. i've only gotten black ones, and even those have been very few and far between. i've been trying for weeks now and i feel like i'm doing something wrong. i can't imagine what though so i'm back here for help
Out of curiosity did you grow the black roses yourself or are they traded
i think once a black rose is watered with the golden watering can ONE time, it stays flagged forever until it produces a gold rose
thats my knowledge idono
grew them myself
Ok then sounds like your just getting unlucky you could put the beautiful ordinance on if you have 3 stars
aw okay :( thank you, i'll keep trying
This is incorrect: the behavior was fixed in the 2.0 update. All the flowers inside the watering can's watering radius will get the gold flag
Anyone have castle gate, castle wall and castle tower?
Oops then, thanks for the info
Hi, you can try to ask on #furniture-trade
Or check for them on Nookazon, you may have faster offers 😉
Thanks
Does anyone answer each other in the trade channels cause it doesn’t look like it
I've definitely had people DMing me for trades. It just takes a bit sometimes
Was curious I was looking through the chat for the fruit trades and I wasn’t seeing any responses
You're not supposed to answer in the trade channels. You post your ad only. You DM with the people that want to trade. That's why you don't see any answers there
Ok it makes sense now
heyy, could someone help me plan my island map? i just got 3 stars and I dont really know how to plan it!!! I have a screenshot of the map if anyone wants to help!
Hey there!
#game-help-questions❓ is meant for questions about the game mechanics in ACNH. For conversational or opinion-based questions please go to #general or #acnh-chat⛱️! 
I placed all the mannequins perfectly, and I destroyed all my rocks except for this one yesterday. I looked around my island today and saw no rock had spawned anywhere. What am I doing wrong?
I’m trying to make a rock garden btw
Nevermind I found the rock….
I'd say don't put mannequins this near, I thing the bottom left one blocks the bottom left rock, custom design is more "precise" to block the rock near the spawning point
I messed up in ONE single spot
ah yup that would do it lol
Should I still do what you said
I still advise you to remove the one in the middle at least
Because there’s a 3x3 spot so should t a rock spawn there
Ok but what if a rock spawns there
you put a custom design instead
They do the same thing no?
it will do the exact same thing, but you are 100% sure the manequine won't be blocking for mysterious reasons
Some people use custom designs instead of mannequins when doing this and it works
Ok thank you!
I don’t time travel on this island so I have to wait until tomorrow….
I use mostly mannequin around the island, to clean easily but custom designs around to see what I'm doing
Ok thank you very much Nours
good luck
hey, i just recently started playing ACNH again, but my player name is my dead name. Is there a way to change it without restarting my island? i've worked super hard on the island and dont want to lose it.
Unfortunately, you can't change your player name without restarting
aw man
Yeah, I'm sorry. But if you do decide to reset, the server has a Middleman service that will hold some items from your previous island so you don't have to start from ground zero #middleman-rules‼️
yeah no, unfortunately there's no way to change your character name in acnh
I'm in the exact same situation so i ended up restarting my island, and when i created my new one it said at the start that you wouldn't be able to change your name later
if you have two consoles (eg switch 1 and switch 2) and still wish to keep your old island, you can transfer it to one system and create a new island on the other
If I use an amiibo card and since it'll let me choose who I want to send away, can I put them up for trade in the villager trade server
yes! they will immediately go into boxes though, so make sure to not go to the next day. 
ok. Also does the hotel have an amiibo thingy or only brewsters and resident services
Yes the hotel has one as well , it unlocks the day after you make the VIP room
How many days do it have to go until i can kick out Lucha even if hes the newest village i have was planning to try use an amiibo as soon as i can replace him...
If you're using an amiibo, you can do it as soon as they're fully moved in!
If I want to add a villager but I get rid of one villager can I put up a vote in the villager trade or any of the other channels and put up an offer for some villagers and see who gets the most vote. Does that make sense?
Oh phew! That is great! Cuz then i can like replace him tomorrow already!
Is this a glitch? He won't sell me anything
When he does that you don't have enough bells
He says "Thank you for your purcha- Oh you don't have enough bells please return with more" or something like that IDK
I'm able to buy other things though like the diy recipes. I'm actually using max bells cheats, idk why it works in some places and not others?
Okay I figured out how to work around. I kept infinite money in bank, and just withdrew like 50k bells to buy stuff and it worked
Is there a way to buy things fast? Because some ui is slow
When you're buying in nooks you need to have the money in your wallet/pockets
Is there a way to clean the island, like whatever I've dropped should vanish
Is this true? Lol
Blue baloons can contain materials, and yellow can contain bells. Red and green balloons can contain any other drops but bells and materials.
Wow! Cool! Thanks!!
I need my memory jogged: how do special NPC photos work? Making a house in HHP right? How many can I get per day? Just 1? Do I have to build/renovate to trigger it or can I just keep talking to them
yeah, iirc you get the photo in the mail the day after you design the house, but that's it. i don't think there's a way to get more than one without trading 
no 💔
How often do weeds grow back? cuz i just sat here and picked em all up im only on like day 4 of the game lol
iirc a small amount of weeds grow daily
oh okie ty
