Ever wanted to design a home? Ever wanted to do it in a world of animals, where you, the lone human and clearly the only one capable of designing everything control what their home looks like?
Well, you’re in luck, as Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer will be launching this Autumn for 3DS, and it’ll be bringing new Amiibo cards – basically cards with the same technology as the NFC figurines – along with it.
Using these, you’ll be able to use either the New 3DS’ built-in functionality, or the adapter for old systems which will also be launching this Autumn, and get these characters into your game to design their rooms.
It’s a shame that it’s not a fully blown new Animal Crossing game, but at least it’s something.

Think of the possibilities relating to those NFC cards. There’s a 3DS Pokedex and new card game written all over it. 1996, playgrounds, here I come!

Hopefully this and the Animal Crossing DLC for Mario Kart is a lead-up to a full blown Wii U title. If the MK8 circuit is anything to go by, it could look amazing!
