Great news for Nintendo fans. Major online leaks suggest some big reveals are on their way. Could it be GBA? N64 or something else? Looks like major juicy stuff is going down, as there are some really interesting reports. If recent rumors are to be believed, Game boy and Game boy color are coming on Nintendo Switch. The leak is from a solid source and it looks like it is a sure thing. Today (4 September 2021) Eurogamer came in with some comments saying that their own sources have told them that Game Boy and Game Boy Colour are coming to Switch super soon. This double-checks the initial rumors. They collaborated with their own people, but there is some juicy kicker as well. Eurogamer’s other sources told them that other retro platforms are also on the card and they’re ones that have not leaked yet. Well, this is quite thrilling, as it could be huge. The best part about this is that Game Boy Advance actually could be coming and the initial sources just knew nothing about it. It makes sense to pair the two with Game Boy Advance. This means a lot more games.

They would launch the handheld titles from Game Boy and Game Boy Colour to bring in the next era of a home console, with Nintendo 64. However, nothing is officially confirmed yet. So take this as a rumor only. AMIIBO CARDS ARE BACK ON ANIMAL CROSSING Ninty released a press release today about Animal Crossing [https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.essentiallysports.com/tag/animal-crossing/] as they are bringing back Amiibo cards [https://www.animal-crossing.com/amiibo/#welcome] series 1-4. Actually, it is a very fun release, and it is great for all those players who wanted to collect these cards for a while now. Animal Crossing Amino cards were very popular way back when the new leaf was a thing and they haven’t really been easily accessible or purchasable in the Switch era. Now starting in early September 2021 target will be bringing back series 1-4 at Select Target Store. Each pack will contain four 4 villagers (normal) cards and one character card. [https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/List-Fish-Animal-Crossing.jpg] The character card is the special one. These normal, as well as special cards, come, be used with all compatible Animal Crossing games, including Animal Crossing: New Horizon. These cards can be used to invite specific villagers to the island. If you get villagers, you can scan them in and they’ll pop in the campsite. Of course, this is very similar to the sanrio cards worked earlier in 2021 back in March.

<h2>Animal Crossing: New Horizons 2022 - Free Updates, Villagers, Events, and More</h2>
<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-464481" src="https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/animal-crossing-new-horizons-1-1.jpg" alt="" width="1200" height="732" />

Animal Crossing: New Horizons is a real-time life simulation video game developed and published by Nintendo. The game is the newest entry in the popular Animal Crossing series. In the months following New Horizons' release, the game became one of the few in the series to get periodic post-launch content via free updates.
<h2>Animal Crossing: New Horizons Gameplay</h2>
The game starts with the player assuming control of a customizable character who relocates to a deserted island after purchasing a Nook Inc. Getaway Package from Tom Nook, one of the most popular Animal Crossing characters having appeared in every title in the series.

The game takes place in real-time, and a player can explore the island in a non-linear manner. They can collect and craft items and evolve the island into a beautiful community of anthropomorphic Animal Crossing villagers.

Players can progress with their island life at their own pace. They can indulge in gardening, fishing, trapping bugs, collecting fossils, and more. Getting acquainted with the animal residents, decorating, and designing the island to perfection are perhaps some of the most attractive features.
<h4>Activities</h4>
Fishing and catching insects are among the favorite pastimes for island dwellers. Since the game follows real-time mechanics, there is a wide variety of critters to catch, depending on the season and time of the day.
<div class="column column--6 main-header__text">
<p class="txt-big vp-slide vp-slide--up vp-delay-4">The best part about collecting all the items is that one can donate them to Blathers for the museum. Blathers is an Animal Crossing character who is exceedingly interested in the island ecosystem. Therefore, he will gladly accept a new species of bugs and fish and analyze the fossils dug up.</p>
Besides that, players can fill their pockets with items they find while exploring. They can also carry necessities like a fishing pole, net, shovel, and pole.

Planting flowers aids in the island's beautification. Players can water their garden plots to make their plants bloom. Then they can harvest or cross-pollinate. One may even end up growing a flower with rare colors.

Another specialty of the island is the fruit growing on trees. Players can also plant new varieties of fruit from other islands. One can either plant a piece of fruit or dig up a sapling and carry it in their pocket until they locate the perfect spot to plant it.
<h4>Crafting and Customization</h4>
Players can give their island a personal touch in Animal Crossing: New Horizons. They can customize their community at their own pace with greenery, furniture, and decorative items. Then they have the freedom to place those items indoor or outdoor to their pleasing.

Players can select starting locations for their homes, the residents’ homes, and several other buildings. They can place bridges and ramps, alter river paths and cliffs. Furthermore, fences are available along with a path creator.

Players can use Tom Nook’s workbench to craft furniture, tools, and a lot more to decorate their island paradise. Eventually, a player will learn to create DIY benches of their own. Islanders can also teach the player new DIY recipes if the player speaks to them while they are crafting.

New buildings such as Resident Services and Dodo Airlines and locations such as Harv’s Island have only added to the game's popularity. Alongside town customization, there are also options for furniture customizations.

During the beginning of the game story, the player is prompted to customize their character’s eyes, skin, hair, nose, and mouth. Besides that, a player can obtain hairstyles and colors by redeeming Nook Miles at a Nook Stop.

<strong>Cooking and The Roost</strong>

Thanks to the 2.0 update, Nintendo introduced brand-new mechanics to New Horizons. Furthermore, developers finally put an end to players' requests to add Brewster to the game.

With the recent November update, Nintendo introduced fans-favorite special character, Brewster, and his cafe, The Roost, in New Horizons. Apart from the addition of a brand-new cafe, developers also launched an iconic decorative item from previous titles known as Gyroids to ACNH.

Furthermore, we can't forget the most popular and loved feature of the 2.0 update which is the Cooking mechanics. Nintendo's decision to add cooking mechanics and challenge players' cooking skills encouraged several veterans to login back into the game.

Overall, Animal Crossing: New Horizons gives the player more freedom for customization than previous titles in the series.
<h2>Animal Crossing: New Horizons release date, and why is it so popular?</h2>
Animal Crossing: New Horizons underwent a launch on March 20, 2020, for the Nintendo Switch console. The game is the fifth main entry in the series and has amassed immense popularity worldwide.

The game is praised for its straightforward yet immersive gameplay. On top of that, a wide range of customization options means players can modify almost anything to their liking. Besides, there is no competitive rush, meaning players can progress at their own pace.

New Horizons quickly broke several records after its launch. It became the highest-selling game in the Animal Crossing series and the second-highest-selling game on Nintendo Switch.

The game also provided a much-needed escape from the harsh reality for millions worldwide when the COVID-19 pandemic was at its peak. Moreover, amid the strict stay-at-home and social distancing orders, players took to the world of New Horizons to indulge in real-life activities in the game.
<h2>All Villagers in Animal Crossing: New Horizons</h2>
According to <a href="https://animalcrossing.fandom.com/wiki/Villager_list_(New_Horizons)">Animal Crossing's Fandom page</a>, there are 413 villagers in New Horizons, excluding special characters who appear during certain in-game events.

All villagers from New Leaf and many more from other iterations in the series returned to New Horizons.
<h2>Animal Crossing: New Horizons on PC</h2>
The game is a Nintendo Switch exclusive, and therefore, is not available on PC. However, PC users can play an initial version of the game using the Nintendo Switch emulator Ryujinx.

The Preview Build on <a href="https://www.patreon.com/posts/animal-crossing-35196813">Ryujinx’s Patreon</a> supports Animal Crossing New Horizon version 1.0.0 and 1.1.0 and is available to download on the website.

In order to try Happy Home Paradise, you first have to purchase the expansion outright from the New Horizons product page for $25. On top of that, if you purchase the Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack membership plan, you can get free access to the DLC.
