Update: The initial download is 53MB with another 70MB after the tutorial. It’s at version 0.9.0 rather than 1.0, which may suggest that Nintendo is going for a soft launch by releasing the game in Australia and only on Android.
Original: Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp was just unveiled a few hours ago. Nintendo plans on having the game officially ready for launch in late November.
For whatever reason, as Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp was made available on Google Play in Australia. You can try your luck here. The APK has also been floating around, which is up here.
