Animal Crossing has a lot of fans, and they simply hate this announcement. This fan called out the brand and refused to acknowledge its existence.
What is Puma? What are they known for?

Eh! Nintendo, are you listening? Fans are not at all happy about this crossover.

Fans were disappointed with the news and reiterated that the title lacks meaningful content even after a year.

Puma, you are being very sus and this fan does not appreciate your moderation. The game desperately needs a massive content update and these voices shouldn’t be silenced.
Puma hinding replies of fans calling out Nintendo for not putting any new content into the actual game is sketchy 😐

Fans understand this collaboration is aimed at improving monetary compensation rather than adding lucrative content. Something that seems quite obvious from the looks of things. However, the community can only hope that Nintendo adds something worthwhile to the game with this crossover.
we love a greedy conpany

The community simply wants to see content from legacy titles to make a return to new horizons. This game was meant to be a reboot, but it is quite incomplete without adding all the necessary features and characters.
At this point, I’d pay a good $50 if Nintendo just added on all of the furniture from New Leaf and upgraded the Nook store.

Things are certainly not looking good for both Puma and Animal Crossing at this point. They have really come up with an impressive free update.
