Guess ACNH isn’t worth @Nintendo time ? A half baked game that sells 40+ million copies is a win for them, they can release a mediocre AC-lite game and still get praised and 💴

Compared to the mainline games pocket camp felt so restrictive. It lacks the freedom of NL and NH. Still cannot get into the game but jealous some of the furniture didn’t cross over and I wish my island was twice it’s size.

Mori, PLEASE send a petition out to your following (and have other ACNH content creators share it). A petition to bring tortimer island to ACNH.

Some players further revealed that only the warehouse update is free while developers will still charge money for other features.
Now this is a good way to make Nintendo's mobile games less predatory. They said they would do this years ago BTW…

It’s only the warehouse feature of the plan they’re making free, not the cookie and additional aspects of the plan.

It’s only the warehouse feature. You still have to pay for the other stuff.
