Nintendo, known for their intense final Direct announcements revealed that one of their major IPs, Animal Crossing, would be heading to the Switch. The announcement came as a rollercoaster ride for fans, initially teasing Isabelle for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, and then dropping the announcement suddenly at the end. No further details were given other than a 2019 release date.
