Now that today’s Animal Crossing Direct has concluded, Nintendo sent out an official announcement about the new update available for New Leaf. Read it in full below for a full rundown of information.
REDMOND, Wash., Nov. 2, 2016 – In a new Nintendo Direct video presentation, Nintendo threw a rustic party for a free downloadable software update for the Animal Crossing: New Leaf game. The free update launched this morning alongside the Nintendo Direct, and will also launch as part of a packaged version with the full game called Animal Crossing: New Leaf – Welcome amiibo exclusively for the Nintendo 3DS family of systems in December. This updated version of the classic Animal Crossing: New Leaf game adds amiibo functionality, which opens up a whole neighborhood of fun new possibilities. By tapping the new Welcome amiibo cards for Animal Crossing: New Leaf – Welcome amiibo launching Dec. 2 and the 16 previously released Animal Crossing amiibo figures, you can welcome villagers in their very own RVs to a special new RV campground.
“This new update will appeal to people who never picked up the original game, and all its new features will excite fans of the Animal Crossing franchise,” said Doug Bowser, Nintendo of America’s Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing. “The update breathes new life into Animal Crossing: New Leaf and offers more fun compatibility for your amiibo figures and cards.”

Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Mobile, News | 1 Comment
Pokemon GO appears to be getting daily quests, based on new information players have found through data mining.
After poking through the app’s latest update, Niantic is planning three types of quests. These include “First Catch of The Day” as well as “First PokeStop of the Day”.
At the moment, it’s unclear what rewards daily quests will provide, though code references incubators. Also, while we don’t know when this feature is going live, it seems that Niantic can easily turn it on at any point.
We’ll let you know when we hear anything official about daily quests in Pokemon GO.
