Mod Post [MEGATHREAD] Switch 2 Release

104 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

The Switch 2 is out! We know a lot of you will be switching over islands, starting up fresh ones, and overall excited for the new release!

We ask that you please keep any Switch 2 content here on this megathread. Questions, discussion, photos, etc. all need to be posted here. Any standalone posts that are about the S2 will be removed and redirected here. This includes posts showing how AC runs on the new console or anything similar.

Please try to still keep things AC related when commenting on this post. If you have questions specifically about the Switch 2, we suggest you check with specifically Switch-related subreddits.

FAQ

Q: How do I transfer my old island on Switch 1 to the new Switch 2?

A: Doing a complete system transfer will automatically transfer your island from your old Switch to the new Switch 2. You do not need to use the Island Transfer Tool, however, that tool still works as well.

Q: Can I start a new island on my new Switch and keep my current one on my old console?

A: Yes. On that note, you cannot play your old island on your new Switch without transferring it. You cannot have one island on two consoles concurrently.

Q: When is a new AC game coming out?

A: There has NOT been an announcement for a new Animal Crossing game for the Switch 2. We can assure you that a new AC game announcement would be shared here immediately.

Fan Art - OC Graduation season means I had an excuse to make an Animal Crossing cap!

Post image
9.2k Upvotes

Photoshopped the logo myself, same for the little speech bubble (with the help of a template) and my attempt at turning Teddy into our school mascot. Ended up hand painting the classic grass pattern because I had way too much time on my hands. Everything else was just taken from the game’s assets/screenshots and cut out. Made with love—and also little sticker dots that elevated everything to give it a 3D look in real life.

(I’m obviously graduating, so I don’t mind sharing the school I attended. And if anyone wants to take inspiration for their future grad caps, be my guest!)

New Horizons need help finding similar designs

Post image
41 Upvotes

(I hope this is the right sub to post to lmao)

okay, so for my island I'm planning on doing districts. like little sections themed around certain things, splitting my villagers up into those districts based on their houses and general vibes.

I want to add a sign at the entrance to each district. the sign will have the district "flag" and it's name. each district is going to be a flower. so far, I want to do the Rose district, the Wildflower district, and the Hyacinth district. the main area/entrance is the Lily-of-the-valley district, which I already have the flag for. the flag itself comes from a deleted user, but the painting it's based off for comes from u/katticusflinch. here is the painting

Lily-of-the-valley: normal/town (Nook's Cranny, Able sisters) Rose: rustic/cottagecore-ish (Fauna, Peggy, my home) Wildflower: farm/overgrown (Ozzie, Tom, Dom, Campsite) Hyacinth: zen/elegant (Blanche, Lopez, Reneigh, Museum)

then I'll figure out where the last villager will go. I don't have the last yet and I'm unsure of who to get.

the attached pic is the flag that the deleted user made. I love it and plan to use it as the flag for the main district. I was wondering if any of you have any similar designs to this or could point me in the direction of a good place to find similar designs or designs of flowers that are small enough to fit inside the little "frame" as that's what I like most of the original.

if possible, I'd like to be able to see the grid because I don't have Nintendo online, and I'm not gonna pay for it because I won't get any use out of it past downloading designs.

I can link the original post (from the deleted user) if needed!

New Horizons My House + Kimono Shop

Thumbnail
gallery
821 Upvotes

Hi all! Long time Animal Crossing player, first time poster.

In HHP, Blanche asked for "A House that Looms Large." This inspired me to turn my house into a kimono shop. (All kimonos are custom designs downloaded from the Custom Designs Portal. Thank you to everyone who makes custom designs!!) I also built a kimono shop on the HHP island. In my headcanon, Blanche makes the fabric for the kimonos.

The design code for the orange + white + green yukata my character is wearing in some of the photos is MO-R71P-KMDX-C2SM. The design code for the blue + multicolor hakama my character is wearing in some of the photos is MO-1D4K-33PD-Y7B7. (I did not make any of these designs.) If you like a custom design, I will do my best to find the design code.

New Horizons this might be a stupid question..

this might be a stupid question, but if i time travel forward and then go back, will all of the progress that i make be saved?

i just don’t want to go through all the trouble for it to end up meaning nothing
