Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer

Update (10/3): Bumped to the top. Have a listen to Totaka’s Song in Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer below.


Original (9/26): Totaka’s Song has become a well-known Easter egg in Nintendo games. The 19 note tune, created by sound designer Kazumi Totaka, is often hidden in game’s like The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening, Luigi’s Mansion, and Mario Kart 8. It’s been going on for about 25 years.

Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer is the latest Nintendo title to feature Totaka’s Song. When you use the DJ KK amiibo card and use the turntable for the first time, you should be able to hear the melody.

Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer launched in Europe today. Quite a number of fans pre-ordered the game from Nintendo UK’s store, but haven’t received their copy yet.

Nintendo is at least trying to make up for the situation by offering those who reserved the title a free download code. Of course, they’ll still be receiving the physical copy as well.

Here’s the message from Nintendo:

Thank you for pre-ordering Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer with the Nintendo Official UK Store.

Regrettably there has been a delay in the dispatch of your order which means this is unlikely to be arriving with you today.

We fully appreciate that this must be very disappointing; as a gesture of goodwill we would like to provide you with a code to allow you to download the game from the Nintendo eShop so you begin creating stylish new homes for your Animal Crossing friends as soon as possible.

The physical product will be on the way today if not already, keep an eye out for the dispatch notification email for further details.

Your download code is: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

As an additional gesture you can redeem the code below at the Nintendo Official UK store for a free pack of the Animal Crossing amiibo cards, just add them to your basket then enter the code at checkout.
