What are /r/ac_newhorizons' favorite Products & Services?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

There’s a cute affordable version on Amazon. I ordered it for my best friend because she has that ugly thing right at the entrance to her island and I thought she needed one at her front door irl.

Hey guys! As so many responded to my last post where I announced that I was making an Android app to accompany the game, I thought I'd make a follow-up post.

After two weeks of hard work and days of waiting for Google to finally review the app, it's now available for free on Google Play. In the meantime, I'm working on the next update bringing checklists for critters, villagers and DIY recipes to the app. Thanks for being such an awesome community! ❤️

Unfortunately, it's only available on Android right now, you can install it here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gapps.nookphone

The IOS app should follow suit soon!

If you like the app, please share it with your friends! That really helps me make the most of the continued support of this app!

EDIT: The name of the app is called: Nookphone Companion - An ACNH Guide

EDIT 2: To everyone who installed the app: Thank you so much, we've hit 100+ installs in less than 48 hours!

Here is a quick and easy guide! And here is a link to some NFC tags you can use to make them - I wanted to link those because some listings are confusing but I know that these ones work, as I ordered them myself!

I definitely recommend clearly labeling the tags once you've made them, and keeping them in a baggie or something. Otherwise, chaos reigns! But have fun, seriously, they're great to have and make. My SO and I have probably made ~50 of them, it's ridiculous but it's very fun.

I'm just a developer coding for fun :)

Note: I don't make any money from this app and it has no ads

I got this one from Amazon and it’s dockable (with a bit of wiggling), the joy cons detatch and it’s soft and comfy to hold.

I'm super happy I managed to get one during the restock! I put over 600 hours into my original game, but I've decided to restart on my new Switch, chase New Horizons, as they say... ;D

Here is to 600 more hours! <3

&#x200B;

Edit:

For anyone interested, this is the screen protector, and this is the replacement shell for the Pro controller~

If you are a bit handy (the joycons are fiddly inside and you should watch a few good youtube videos) Amazon still has a few models of Joystick replacements that ship quickly in the US. I ordered this one for one of my sons: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07GM5MP6M/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&amp;psc=1

It looks like OP did a rehousing of their joycons. If you're like me and afraid to rehouse your joycons, you can get a pink cover like this one: https://www.amazon.com/GeekShare-Switch-Protective-Case-Cover-Nintendo/dp/B07W9762XC/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?keywords=pink+switch+case&amp;qid=1582738740&amp;sprefix=pink+swit&amp;sr=8-3

When I ordered it, it was eligible for Amazon Prime, but at the time of this post it seems to have gone off Prime. I often see products go back and forth between Prime and not, though, so it might be worth waiting a week or so if you need the Prime.

Hi all,

For those who don't know, i've made an app that guides your experience in ACNH with the visual style of the Nookphone as seen ingame.I recently updated the app and added the following features:

- You can now see a list of achievements along with the requirements on how to complete them. You can also log these achievements to know how many achievements you collected.

- You can change the preferred language in the new settings button, along with some other handy components.

I hope you all enjoy the app and the recent update!

Take care!

You can download the app here:

IOS: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/nookphone-companion/id1529935567

Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gapps.nookphone

I found these apps that may be usefull:

ACNH planner:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fixnat

I use this app to force Nat A connection when my wifi is acting up and I'm left with just my phone hotspot. It works great. Follow the directions in app, you need to change the wifi proxy settings in the switch menu, not in the phone.

That's amazing 😊 I'll have to put that on my PC! There's also animal radio for Android in the play store! It plays hourly music. You can pick between different game soundtracks and it plays in the background Animal Radio App

Hi! Not OP, but I have the same grips, they're just little covers that sit on your joysticks and they feel really comfy, I bought mine from amazon here :D https://www.amazon.com/Geekshare-Silicone-Sakura-Joystick-Caps-Nintendo-Switch/dp/B07R6GX2JH

i have the same ones, theyre a little expensive ($10 for a 4 pack)

but here's the link to the ones i bought off amazon if youre interested https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07W6L39V6/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_-HsAEb9HQVVPE

I'm not sure, unfortunately. ): I know if you order just the shells, then they usually don't send any wrist strap parts.

But in a quick 10 second search, this person is offering the joy cons reshelled, with custom button options, if that interests you! It's 110$. You could ask them if you're looking for already built joy cons? o: Or, if you're preferring the shells or they can't offer them, I found some colored ( and white ) ones on Amazon here ! : D

The amazon listing for the AC switch (placeholder) has the following description:

"

• This Nintendo Switch system takes design inspiration from the new animal Crossing:
• New horizons game, with lovely pastel green and blue Joy-Con controllers that are White on the back, White wrist straps and a White Nintendo Switch dock, adorned with images of
• Recognizable characters Tom nook and nooklings timmy and tommy

"

There's no mention of a joycon grip, while they do list the white wrist straps and dock, so I feel like that implies there might not be a joycon grip included. It's not an official list of contents, though, so who knows.

Hi folks!

My first app has another update. You can now save the recipes you've collected and view them separately for all of you who are hardcore collectors!

For those who don't know, i've made an app for ACNH and got massive support from the community. some of the features include:

- A nookphone like interface!

- A list of insects, fish and sea creatures. Including convenient availability filters.

- A list of fossils.

- A large DIY collection to search through using smart search technology.

- A complete list of villagers, including all their unique personality traits.

- A collection of art, including a way to distinguish the real from the fake artworks!

- A collection of songs by the beloved K.K. Rider!

I hope you all like the update. Take care.

I 3D printed this file using flexible tpu I bought here, then hollowed him out and added a squeaker I pulled out of a cloth dog toy. Painted with acrylic but added acrylic super heavy gloss gel to make the paint stay on and be more flexible, so far has worked well (took about 4 hours to paint though). Thanks for all the love on the original post! As much as I'd love to make these and sell them I don't have the time and patience for that. I'm sure there are people out there who would be willing to custom make these tho! I'd love for everyone to have their own squeaky baby so I'm trying to be transparent about my process so anyone can recreate it, let me know if you have any questions!

the song is Breakfast Santana - Baggage (Produced by Khaji Beats), and i used final cut pro to edit! :-]

here's the original by amarilloisland

Idk if this is the right place to ask but I found an animal crossing theme remix (?) on tiktok and it slaps so hard but I can’t find the full version https://www.tiktok.com/music/original-sound-6653859001480121093?lang=enn

This is as far back as I can go, can anyone help?

I have seen one of my island residents wearing something very similar to this at one point:

Turbie Twist Microfiber Hair Towel Wrap for Women and Men | 4 Pack | Quick Dry Turban for Drying Curly, Long & Thick Hair (Pink, Purple, Blue, Aqua) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01D9O1GA6/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_i_9J56RJD7EN4KTQKG9995

Glad you find it useful ^_^ We definitely have the clothing design feature planned in our roadmap for future updates.

Yes, you are able to split the image into (1-8) x (1-8) multi-tile art, the more tiles you use the more detailed the flag will be. Feel free to dm me at https://discord.com/invite/WQhxkp8 with your image and I would be happy to help

Sure. Just as a heads-up, I used a lot of linked databases. So, the pages may seem a bit cluttered, but I prefer filtering the information this way. I hope this variation on Norton's journal helps you set up your own!

FOR PEOPLE GETTING AMIIBOS FOR THE IN GAME VILLAGERS, NOT COLLECTORS!!!!!!

I will soon be making NFC stickers that you can use to get your favorite villagers in the game!!!! 💛💛💛

I am putting aside 5 stickers initially and the rest are for me lol! I'm just starting this and I want some initial buyers to make sure they work perfectly on a variety of consoles!!!

🍊🍒🍎🍐🍑🥥

So, if you want any villagers from this site (if you're still confused about if they're in NH or not I'll help you) https://animal-crossing.com/amiibo/collections/series-1-4-amiibo-cards

and you understand that you will only be getting the NFC sticker with the character's data - NOT THE REAL AMIIBO CARD, then pls dm me for initial prices (very cheapo I promise), or any further questions you may have for me!!!!!

🌹🌺🌻🌼🌷⚘

~~estimated delivery: End of April~~

I bought it for the same reason, and never played it. These are the version of the cards you get. It's a great deal if you want the amiibos.

I used (https://postcron.com/image-splitter/editor/en/upload-image) to split the image once I cropped it and (https://acpatterns.com/editor) to convert it into a scannable design. I’ll try to post the QR code’s soon for those who are interested! It shouldn’t take longer than 5-10 mins to put in your game if you have the Nintendo switch app!

would an ethernet adapter work? https://www.amazon.com/Nintendo-Internet-Officially-Licensed-wii-u/dp/B01N6S068R/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?crid=3HKBLEE0FFGAN&amp;dchild=1&amp;keywords=switch+ethernet+adapter&amp;qid=1634648436&amp;sprefix=switch+ethern&amp;sr=8-1

There is the official NSO app but from what I can tell, it is basically the same as the catalog in-game such that you can only see what you have added to your personal catalog. As in, you cannot see any items beyond what you personally have had in your own inventory.

I use the Unofficial ACNH app for tracking my catalog as it shows EVERYTHING, not just what I have personally had. It is damn useful. Unofficial ACNH.guide

There was an app like this for New Leaf as well, but I'm liking this one much more because you can even add daily checklists to track what you've done each day, as well as a daily visitor log so you can track how long it's been since Redd has graced your island with his presence.

There's an app you can get called "ACNH guidebook" or something and you can put all your villagers into it and it'll tell you their favourite colours and hobbies etc.

Here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=dev.genesy.animalcrossingnhguide

Hey just dropping in to let you know I found an Android alternative to my app! From what I can tell, it offers the same core functionality, and it looks real pretty!

He tells you when you donate the last fossil. I also recommend the unofficial acnh guide app, which let's you track a bunch of stuff, including how many fossils and such you've collected.

Hey all,

I've seen multiple apps pop up left and right, but they didn't quite work for me.

We're focusing on usability in this one and hope it'll be used and loved by many.

You can get it on the Google Play Store over here.

We're currently working on getting your lovely villagers and their information in the app. And much more to follow. If you have any tips, questions, or ideas. Feel free to let me know!

I hope you guys continue to enjoy the application.

The love and comments so far have been great. Obviously this ugly screen is work in progress lol, and I hope you'll enjoy the final product even more.

The application currently has information for: Fish, Insects, Fossils. You can filter stuff by New this month, Leaving this month, available right now, not caught, and not donated, with more options coming soon. Also, you can customize the home screen for your own personal island's information and share it with friends. If you want to ensure saving the data (and only that data...) between devices of the same google account - just sign in on the main screen.

&#x200B;

Things currently in progress are Calendar, KK Songs, Flowers Breeding and... The Villagers which caused the issues earlier this week and ended in a rollback to improve stability (for low-end devices :( ).

Yes, I'll offer a paid version for a few features, coming with the next update. Also it's online now! You can get it here.

There's also an Android app that will make designs:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.nefastudio.android.dmoridesigner

It can also scan existing QR codes and change ownership.

Thank you! I made it in Zooper Widget, which was sadly discontinued (you may be able to find an APK file online). But I'm certain you could make something similar with KWGT! Making widgets with it is fairly easy thanks to YouTube tutorials

You can't connect to anyone except people who have totally open NAT types with a restrictive NAT. This is just how P2P technology works. Nintendo wouldn't be able to do anything about this in their end except use dedicated servers for all online elements of the game, which is not practical for a game like AC with minimal netplay activity (relative to much larger scale stuff like MMOs bring the most obvious example.)

If you can't change your NAT type (I can't--having no ISP is the pits,) the only option is to harass your friends who can change their network to try turning get NAT A. Otherwise, you're out of luck.

It's possible to use software like Connectify+Speedify to get a less restricted NAT type by repeating a WiFi signal from a mobile device with a PC if you're absolutely desperate, but it's not a perfect answer. Google it, there's been many threads about this due to popular P2P gagged that came before ACNH.

Like other people have said, it's cheaper to write your own cards if you have a phone with an NFC antenna. I paid $20 for 10 blank NCF cards on Amazon. Found a Zip file online with every characters .bin file and used TagMo to write them.

These are the tags I used. https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B075CL71FK/ref=cm_sw_r_other_apa_i_xrtVEb2M72W27

The zip file. https://nfc-bank.com/bins.php?do=download&amp;downloadid=1985

I recommend looking into Joy-Con Toolkit. It's a program that lets you change different parameter of each individual Joy-Con including the dead zone on the analog sticks. I changed it slightly with a lot of testing and trial and error and it has't drifted once since. It does require a Bluetooth connection though so if your PC doesn't have one built-in you can find an adapter for cheap on Amazon.

When I first bought the switch, my controller had drift fairly quickly. I tried every suggestion and just wound up spending $80 on some new Joycons. The new joy cons recently had started drifting, too, to the point it was unplayable. I went around looking for alternative solutions. I found a suggestion to just replace the analog stick. It fucking worked. I actually wound up repairing my other left joycon as well.

Here is the kit I used. https://smile.amazon.com/Joystick-Replacement-Nintendo-Screwdriver-Thumbstick/dp/B0838VV8LP/ Comes with all the tools you might need and two analog sticks. For a fraction of the cost of buying new joycons. Incredibly easy. No need for soldering. Just install it and calibrate the sticks using the switch's own calibration tool it before using it in a game.

If you need further instruction, there are youtube videos how to replace the component online. And I think also on that amazon page.

Not saying this is guaranteed, though. Sometimes the problem isn't the stick component. But a $15 repair is worth the shot, IMO.

Well for the character faces and coin template I got from Google images and used photoshop to make them gold and uplifted a bit. For the coin holders and NFC stickers, I got from Amazon https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07CQFPK3L?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share and https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B071ZZTT6T?ref=ppx_pt2_mob_b_prod_image

Make sure the stickers are the NTAG215 versions otherwise it won't work.

Looks like there's one left in stock but the price has been increased! I would wait until they restock. Here's the link! https://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B083931F8J/ref=pe_2107282_266464282_TE_dp_1

Edit: I forgot to add that I ordered it from the US! Had to make an Amazon JP account but I was able to preorder it for not even $30.

Edit to everyone asking: This is a shell I bought off of amazon. Heres the link

https://www.amazon.com/eXtremeRate-Nintendo-Switch-Handheld-Controller-Replacement/dp/B07MKTZYTP

There are a few really good tutorials on youtube. I recommend one from the user JerryRigEverything. I had never done anything like this before. Some parts were more difficult than others and my boyfriend who builds his own PC helped me with it.

The New Horizons sticker on the back a friend made for me. The little paw bumpers are from amazon as well. =)

Hope this helps!

Wood grain shell Here I found a similar shell on amazon, tho looks like they sell the pieces separate tho.

No it covers part of the back as well you can find it on amazon here

Here is a link to it on Amazon.

Also its on amazon!!!

Go go go go go!

https://www.amazon.com/Nintendo-Switch-Animal-Crossing-New-Horizons/dp/B084DDDNRP/ref=olp_product_details?ie=UTF8&amp;me=

I got it from Amazon Switch lite And normal Switch

These are Extremerate, they have an online store but I bought from Amazon here for that Prime shipping.

Amazon! I wanted a different set that were more mint colored but they sold out before I got around to ordering. I really like these so far!

The New Horizons guide book is now available on the Amazon Canada website (not yet available for pre-order, but you can sign up to be emailed when it is): https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/3869931000

No problem. I’m a noob as well! I use the 8bitdo Gamecube wireless adapter. I caught the sale on amazon but it’s fairly cheap still. I use it mainly when I play smash bros with my brother. You can use the Wii Classic controller with this too. Here’s a link if you’re interested:

8Bitdo Gbros. Wireless Adapter for Nintendo Switch (Works with Wired Gamecube & Classic Edition Controllers) - Nintendo Switch https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07JLF9PVG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_JijsEbXSPK6J3

Amazon has it live right now!! (The console anyways lol)

https://www.amazon.com/Nintendo-Switch-Animal-Crossing-New-Horizons/dp/B084DDDNRP/

the shells are made by extremerate. i got them from amazon canada, but i believe they're sold on amazon us, too!

If you electronically inclined you can get shell replacements. These on Amazon UK in 'Mint' and 'Heaven Blue' by eXtremeRate look pretty close to the official colours. You can get them for the switch console, joy-cons, and the pro controller.

There's an official sticker book that's sold on Amazon!

Here's the link! It's currently on sale for $8, but usually about $13. It's also an activity book, though I mainly got it for the stickers/customizing things with them.

I will be doing a sketch! The back of my journal has a folder flap so I'll be storing the sketch in there for reference.

I’m going to GameStop to preo today anyway so I’m covered but if the switch won’t be on amazon why is there a page for it there - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B084DDDNRP/

It’s not a third party seller either it’s Nintendo’s amazon page.

Best Buy offers a Tom Nook decal as a preorder bonus. However, another thread here posted link to a sheet of decals that you can buy from Amazon that has it:
