Hello,fellow Animal Crossing/Amiibo Fans.:)

Yes,finally this damn Animal Crossing Fever has also reached me too.

Maybe because I made the "Mistake" and started on the 3DS...I have no Idea.:D

3DS - that is the Keyword.
Since the Wii U has the NFC Reader "included",I want to ask is there a "reasonable" Bundle with 2-3 (or more) Figures and a NFC Reader for the 3DS please ?

First I want to buy this Set of Figures:
https://www.amazon.de/amiibo-Animal-Crossing-Figuren-Set-Rosina/dp/B016AM7K0Y/ref=sr_1_6?__mk_de_DE=ÅMÅŽÕÑ&dchild=1&keywords=wii+u+amiibo&qid=1589358025&sr=8-6

Then I read about "Cards" - are they really necessary needed ? I read about Mini Games,they use them.
So the next Choice was this Package:
https://www.amazon.de/Animal-Crossing-Festival-amiibo-Figuren-amiibo-Karten/dp/B016BCC3NC/ref=sr_1_1?__mk_de_DE=ÅMÅŽÕÑ&dchild=1&keywords=wii+u+amiibo&qid=1589358025&sr=8-1

Then I have noticed,I need a Reader for the 3DS...
https://www.amazon.de/Nintendo-3DS-NFC-reader-writer/dp/B01307Q6ZC/ref=sr_1_9?__mk_de_DE=ÅMÅŽÕÑ&dchild=1&keywords=nfc+reader+amiibo&qid=1589358459&sr=8-9

So please,my Friends,can you point me to an Set that maybe has all I need please ? :(
I am completely "lost" with this big Assortment....

And please,if possible,no "Special Ultimate Collectors Edtions" or "Out of print Collections",my Money Pouch is little....

As maybe known,the Devices are Modded/has Custom Firmware on it (Wii U - Coldboot Haxchi and New3DS XL - Luma3DS).
The Games I (want) to play are
Animal Crossing: amiibo Festival for the Wii U
Animal Crossing: Welcome amiibo for the 3DS

Thank you for your Help.:)

Search for that limited edition amiibo festival bundle with 2 amiibo figures on ebay or somewhere (I don't know if the one from amazon you linked here is a good price), I got mine for less than buying the 2 figures separately because no one wants it and it's totally worth it
I also got a used happy home designed for 3DS bundle which came with the 3DS NFC reader, a copy of the game and an extra amiibo card for not much more than buying the NFC reader itself

This one I think:
https://www.amazon.de/Animal-Crossi...signer+3ds&qid=1589359889&s=videogames&sr=1-5
From this there exist no Bundle with a Figure(s) ? :(

I think there's another bundle with a figure but without the NFC reader
Yeah this is supposed to be a limited edition but no one wanted it and amiibo festival was a failure so it's all around the Internet for cheap prices now
The normal version doesn't have the Digby amiibo figure

Hello,my fellow Animal Crossing Players.:)

The first Step is done,I got a Mario amiibo Figure.
Logically,I made an really dumb Amateur Mistake - I had no Idea,that Mario is not working in Animal Crossing,of course.....:D

So I also ordered this Set
https://www.amazon.de/Animal-Crossing-Festival-amiibo-Figuren-amiibo-Karten/dp/B016BCC3NC/ref=sr_1_1?__mk_de_DE=ÅMÅŽÕÑ&dchild=1&keywords=wii+u+amiibo&qid=1589358025&sr=8-1

And I think and hope,finally it works for me.:rofl2:

Another Question please (I read about but no really concrete Information):
There is no Way to play with an Switch Animal Crossing Friendcode on an Wii U or 3DS,correct @Extrasklep ?

Thank you.:)

What do you mean by that? Animal crossing doesn't have it's own friend codes, you can just play with your 3DS friends on the 3DS and with your switch friends on the switch

A Friend gave me his Code,beginning with SW so I think it is a Switch Code.
And I can not use it on the Wii U or 3DS or any (Animal Crossing) Game.
That was my Question.:)

I do not familiar with this Freind Code Thing (I usually never used it...)
I have no Friends....:rofl2:
Oh wait,yes,TWO on the 3DS - A Guy called Brandon :evil: and @Manuelasparkles.

:D

Yes that's a switch friend code but it has nothing to do with animal crossing

Yes when you open the gate to invite someone from a faraway town in New Leaf your 3DS friends can go to the train station to visit your town
I don't think Happy Home Designer has any online play mode

That means,I have to add any Friends to the 3DS Friends List before ?
And this added Friends has to play then New Leaf on the 3DS.
Do I understand it correct now ?

(You maybe not believe this,I never had played any Online Things before...:rofl2:).

Thank you.:)

Yeah and then after you open your gate you have to somehow tell your friends to come visit your town
After a friend comes to your town you can open the visitor list with the button in the bottom left corner of the bottom screen and then add each other as best friends in animal crossing so you can send messages to each other when you're both online and playing animal crossing but not playing together

But of Course,for the 3DS,the Figures works and it is ok for me.:)

Thank you.:)

Worth it to have fun for a few minutes and a collection of all your figures and cards on the main screen in it and some minigames are fun
Did you also get the 3 cards with it?

    I just been playing offline, and they give you a few bots here n there on your team to help battle. I don't think it's as funny as the other games tho, more battle oriented than humor, which kinda sucks, but I'm still early in it
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, doesnt the game have a campaign mode?
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea, and co-op, but you can also start a pvp session and battle just with friends. You get special skill cards (powers) the more you play. And higher value cards, but you can only enable so many cards at a time.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    If you can find enough for it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Toilet paper is considered the money, you collect and buy stuff with TP, kinda funny. Graphics are def better than the other games tho, I think they used Unity 5 engine.

    Likely because black and white TV was in-expensive.

    It certainly wasn't inexpensive it cost the same as a new car back then

    How much did a 1965 color TV cost?

    For example, a 21-inch (diagonal) GE color television in 1965 had an advertised price of $499, which is equal to $4,724 in today's dollars, according to the federal government's inflation calculator.
