(Note: from beginning of time to release of Animal Forest for the N64 does not count as a drought because we lived with real animals in the woods)
In 2002, America was introduced to this guy:
Ever since then, we've gotten to purchase Nintendo consoles every few years for the sole purpose of returning to town, picking flowers and taking out massive raccoon mortgages. Hopefully this tradition will continue with the timely release of Animal Crossing: Town Dudes or whatever for the Switch, ending the five year drought since 2012's New Leaf.
One of New Leaf's strengths was its 3DS Streetpass integration which didn't make it to the Switch, and Nintendo's online service looks somehow worse than ever. With that in mind, what do you want out of the next Animal Crossing title? Animal Crossing has never been a title that I think really needed massive paradigm shift games like Super Mario 64 or Breath of the Wild, but what can Nintendo do to take advantage of new hardware?
There is also the mobile game which I am boycotting because I don't trust myself with a device that has my credit card information and a virtual usurer promising me a bigger basement.
