Animal Crossing: New Horizons’ latest update introduced some new characters, including Jolly Redd. He occasionally shows to sell in-game art, as well as furniture with unique colors. True to previous entries in the series, players have to figure out which art pieces are real and which are fake.
What players may not initially know is that much of the fake artwork changes based on when you look at them. That happens in the morning, and then reverts back to how it looked originally in the evening.

[Nintendo Everything Podcast] – episode #77 – Evolving Nintendo Switch games and desperate weirdos
Posted on 3 years ago by Oni Dino(@Oni_Dino) in Podcast | 0 comments
Hello my lovely listeners-as-a-service! This week on Nintendo Everything Podcast, we’re bringing up the topic that Galen dubs, “evolving games”. These are games like Splatoon 2 and Super Mario Maker 2 that are back-loaded with post-launch content. Is this new release and marketing strategy to keep a game topical good or bad? Why is it done? Is this a model that can sustain itself for years to come? We also have more Final Fantasy VII Remake impressions now that Oni Dino has beaten the game, and we go hypothetical in our listener mail segment with dream studios working on dream IPs.
If you’re enjoying NEP, please consider giving us a 5 star review on Apple Podcasts, and share us with a friend. It’s incredibly helpful in getting us exposed to new listeners through algorithms, so we would greatly appreciate your help. Thank you for listening!
Animal Crossing: New Horizons datamine raises the possibility of Dream Suite return, other tidbits
Posted on 3 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Animal Crossing: New Leaf introduced a building called Dream Suite. It allows players to visit dream versions of other players’ towns (both friends and random), or share theirs online with others without any real repercussions. The feature is a little different from visiting a town regularly since limitations are in place – you can’t visit shops or cause any havoc for example.
Despite those limitations, Dream Suite is an interesting little feature. It’s something that Nintendo hasn’t brought into the series’ latest entry, Animal Crossing: New Horizons. However, there’s a chance that it could return in the future.
Animal Crossing: New Horizons devs hope updates give surprises for years to come

Animal Crossing: New Horizons is introducing something we didn’t really see with previous games. The Switch title is receiving regular updates, which are primarily tied into seasonal events. Bunny Day kicked things off right around launch, and the game is continuing to go strong with Nature Day and more.
Animal Crossing: New Horizons director Aya Kyogoku spoke about the approach to future updates in an interview with CNET. Although Kyogoku wouldn’t dive into any specifics, she did mention that Nintendo is looking to continue surprising players “in two years or three years down the road”.
Kyogoku’s full words:
Animal Crossing: New Horizons’ latest update makes big change to bug spawn rates
Posted on 3 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Nintendo began distributing Animal Crossing: New Horizons’ 1.2.0 update earlier this week. While it brings along new characters and seasonal events, what players may not know is that big changes have been made to bug spawn rates.
Twitter user Ninji, who datamined the game previously and has provided accurate information about New Horizons, shared the discovery. After digging through the code, it was determined that spawn rates have been unified for all insects. Whereas something like the agrias butterfly used to be less common in April than in its other available months, that’s no longer the case.
Here’s a closer look at how things have changed with the latest update:
