Experience a different side of the Animal Crossing world and a new way to interact with your favourite Animal Crossing characters! This new title in the Animal Crossing series focuses on the decorating and home-designing aspects of the Animal Crossing games.  Animals will ask players to design houses for them, and it’s up to designers-in-the-making to meet the animals’ requests by furnishing and decorating their homes, turning their dream home into a reality.  Animals will tell you what kind of house they want to live in - listen to their requests, then pick a style, choose furniture and decorations and create a happy home for them. Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer works with new amiibo cards which feature characters from the Animal Crossing franchise.  By scanning a new Animal Crossing series amiibo card to a New Nintendo 3DS system or NFC reader/writer accessory, players can design a room for that specific character on the card and scan additional character cards to invite those characters to visit. Use new Animal Crossing series amiibo cards with New Nintendo 3DS and New Nintendo 3DS XL or, with an NFC reader/writer accessory and Nintendo 3DS, 3DS XL or Nintendo 2DS.
