Geekscape Games Podcast: Level 95 – ‘Sombra De Amiibo’

This morning was the Animal Crossing direct for Animal Crossing New Leaf’s big update, and Nintendo has made one thing very clear. They really REALLY want you to buy their overstock of Animal Crossing Amiibo that no one bothers buying. Here’s how they plan on doing it!

– The new AC Amiibo card set features over 50 new villagers that you can meet via the new RV camp
– Once inside their RV you can chat with the villager, buy exclusive items with a new currency called MEOW Coupons, and even convince them to move in.
-Meow bucks can be earned by completing constant challenges for your town
– You can now move your furniture like in everyone’s favorite 2015 house simulator Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer. Thus makes HHD completely useless
– New items like a Wii U and New 3DS can be found to unlock new minigames such as the Dessert Island Survival from Amiibo Festival and Animal Crossing Puzzle League!
– The update is available RIGHT NOW!!
– SO MUCH MORE!

Check out the full direct below and get ready to return to your AC town for a little R&R.

In the previous Nintendo Direct, nestled among the numerous new titles announced was news of an update to the much-beloved Nintendo 3DS game, Animal Crossing: New Leaf. The update, entitled “Welcome amiibo,” was briefly touched upon but viewers were promised a more-indepth video later in the year. Well, that time has almost arrived. Tomorrow, November 2, at 7 a.m. Pacific Time, an Animal Crossing: New Leaf-centric Nintendo Direct will air.
