Seems like Nintendo is fairly confident that the Animal Crossing spin-off Happy Home Designer will do well in Japan. The company announced today that the first shipment of the game will consist of 500,000 units. This includes both the regular version of the game as well as the one that will be bundled with the NFC reader. Both versions will come with one amiibo card.

Recently, both Splatoon and Fire Emblem Fates were basically sold out in Japan in their first couple of weeks on the market. It’ll be interesting to see how well Happy Home Designer does and if Nintendo calculated the demand appropriately this time.
