well it's pretty clear egg balloons aren't overwriting normal balloons so it's still not like it's taking anything away by having both things going on at once :shrug:

It feels slower than using your pole, but it's one less time you have to switch tools. Plus sometimes it's more efficient than building a bridge (like say in locations you think you're going to redesign later).

Have you connected to the Internet? (if not you won't see yourself as being on v 1.1.1a when you start up the game)
And just making sure, if you have, have you talked to Zipper? He makes all the eggs happen.

That's not what gaslighting means you hyperbolic dipshit.
So, I've never played an Animal Crossings game before, but I'm interested in this one.

Now that it's been out for a few days... what's the final goon verdict? Is it good? Great? Awful?


And finally, I've heard something about how you can only have one island per physical Switch. Is this a horrible thing? Why can't you create a new island with every new save file?

I wasn't when I started playing this morning but I just connected and checked for updates and no change. Zipper isn't to be found either. I'll try exiting out of the game and reopening after I sell my turnips in my husband's town! Thanks for the help :)

I'm loving it a ton, so far I'm enjoying it the most out of every game besides Wild World. It's true you can only have one town per Switch, I'm definitely not thrilled about that but my husband and I each have our own which has been nice. But it would have been nice to be able to create a new island down the road if I wanted to start over without losing my beautiful town! Hoping they'll patch that someday.

Find a nook island with a pond and just run back and forth scaring everything else away. Ranchu shadows are horse mackerel sized, slightly bigger than goldfish/tadpoles.

this was before April though and I don't know what size crawfish shadows are

Great, the best thing ever especially if you're working from home and need chill distractions between stuff. Online has some big aggravations in how it handles island visits, but nowhere near bad enough to skip it. I'm the only switch user here so I can't speak to the single-island issue.

For the record you don't have to talk to Zipper first. I didn't see Zipper until like an hour later when I went way north into my island looking for him. I just had to close and restart my game to get the eggs going but once I came back in eggs were placed and in trees and stuff.

It's the best Animal Crossing yet, but also starts slow and has a lot of flaws for the second+ person on each Switch. So if you're singleplayer, it's gold (and the one island per Switch doesn't matter because of that), but yeah it blows for player 2.

e: do you really not have to talk to Zipper? Must have just gotten unlucky to not see ground eggs.

I think it's a good game but I already had a pre-existing condition where I love Animal Crossing. I think it's a good intro to the series as well, but if you can't make your own fun it's probably not a good fit.

One island per switch is very stupid and there's no immediate reason for it, you will find a lot of "Nintendo" decisions if you get involved with this game. Fans of the series are just used to them, but that doesn't make it feel much better.

Every account on your switch only entitles the user to their own character. There is no way around this. If you wanted to share your switch with multiple people it could get annoying, as the first player to go onto the island has unique privileges that (I think) you can't do anything about.

Is the visitor queue separate from the amount of villagers already on the island? I'm in the queue and got the code, but I keep getting the message where the island's full.

I'd rather just wait for an empty slot instead of going through the dialogue and reentering the code every time :shobon:

I just went with catching every shadow larger than the goldfish one, so maybe I just got super unlucky and didn't get the right sized shadow in my 40 attempts
