Animal Crossing: New Leaf’s new update was explained in-depth during yesterday’s Nintendo Direct. As it turns out though, what was said during the presentation didn’t cover everything. Players on Reddit have been compiling a list of smaller tidbits Nintendo didn’t touch on.

For instance, it’s now possible to sit on rocks and floor cushions. Other additions include new fortune cookie items, NPC animations, customizable items, and more. Nintendo has also addressed some of the game’s glitches.

Head past the break for the full lineup of details.

Nintendo UK added a new interview to its website today centered around the new Animal Crossing: New Leaf update. General producer Katsuya Eguchi and Animal Crossing series producer Hisashi Nogami spoke about various topics, including why camper vans were chosen. You can read up on Eguchi and Nogami’s various comments below.

There’s been a lot of footage of the Animal Crossing: New Leaf update, and now there are eight more videos to check out, courtesy of Nintendaan. He shows off the two mini-games, Puzzle League and Desert Island Escape, as well as Felyne (Monster Hunter), Inkwell (Splatoon), Isabelle, and Villager’s RVs.

Since there are so many videos, we’ve placed them after a break:

The Villager amiibo is compatible with Animal Crossing: New Leaf after applying today’s update, but not in the traditional sense. Rather than bringing a resident to your town, you’ll instead be treated to some Nintendo-related items. You can see this for yourself below.

With Animal Crossing: New Leaf’s new update, Nintendo added in compatibility with a bunch of amiibo. In the English Animal Crossing Direct broadcast earlier today, we heard about the likes of Splatoon and Zelda. However, in the Japanese presentation, the recently-released Monster Hunter Stories figures were specifically mentioned as well.

Even though Capcom’s Monster Hunter Stories amiibo are only being sold in Japan currently, they’re actually compatible with the English version of New Leaf. The text has been localized and everything. If you’ve imported any of the figures, they should work!
