I just started playing again because I got the OLED. So anything new is good news as far as I'm concerned.

I'm hoping for QoL improvements, Brewster and his cafe of course, and that we can add a few more villagers (i hated having to boot a few in order to get all the different personalities). Anything else would be icing on the cake.

I wonder if they'll bring back Gracie, with her expensive furniture set.
I just want T&T Emporium back, haha.

I feel like there's enough old visitors we haven't seen yet that we could get 3-5 returnees through this without encroaching on anyone's current occupation.

Gimme new furniture, gyroids, more villager interaction, new furniture, a Nook's upgrade, new furniture, new furniture, and new furniture. And let me hire Kapp'n to sell my wares across other isles.

No, I only think there's going to be only 1. No extra returnees, not unless they shake up some gameplay changes.

Brewster + The Roost alone is great to me! It's already a 10/10 AC game with this. Add a few NPC's, another store upgrade and I'm good!

They've gotta do something to incentivize online multiplayer play, or else we're all just decorating islands no one will ever see (on top of fundamental stuff like being able to complete art collections being nigh impossible without friends to play with, unless you go the Nookazon route).

MORE STORAGE ROOM please. My wife has been playing on a daily basis practically since day one and she's a serial, unrepentant, mind boggling fashion hoarder. She has started to drop bunches of clothes around the island that she can't fit anymore in her house storage. Help Nintendo.

I can't believe that clothing just doesn't go to an infinite-storage closet (or at least a closet big enough to hold 1 copy of every wearable item in the game), separate from home furniture storage.

Why? Would be weird of them to alienate a significant proportion of the playerbase, when they can just add it by expanding existing buildings. And it's not fair to make players choose between missing out on significant new content or going through the possibly laborious process of redesigning the whole island.

What is the actual downside to not having a new building for that content? The only one I can think of is upsetting those who want another building for island design purposes. But most of the people who really care about the design of their island are more likely to be hurt by a building being added than vice versa, because they are the ones who have already put in a lot of effort they don't want to undo. And extra landmarks can always be added, for those that want them, by expanding the outdoor items on offer at the nook stop.

I have barely put any effort into the design of my island, so it wouldn't bother me either way at all, but I know that my friends with nice islands wouldn't be happy with the change.
I disagree. I put more than 700hrs into the game, most of which I spent designing my island. Now my island is complete, I'm happy with the result and I don't want to change anything. But if they gave me a new building, I'd be more than happy to erase an area to design around it; especially the Roost, since it's a bar and i would really like to design an actual exterior bar instead of a few tables and a counter with no barman.

I'm not sure what to expect, but even in my island, a half-barren ruin, I consider my island life fulfilled. So any new activity would do me some good.

5 min left hype.

I can't wait for this even though I haven't fire the game up in about a year.

Hoping for something substantial to get me back into the game somewhat, but whatever it ends up being I'll be sure to check it out regardless.

Briefly went into the game on my OLED after doing the transfer to check everything went alright and it looked so good on the screen, so that's already making me want to go back and do a makeover of my island or something.

I'd love an upgrade to Nook's Cranny but I know in my heart we won't, Nook 'n' Go was my favourite.

Got the video queued up ready to see what's gonna happen. I've avoided all those dumb "prediction" videos because I'm tired of being let down by high expectations. Just give me the info. I'm ready.

How does a sleep-deprived Max fighting KH2 Sephiroth have more viewers than the Animal Crossing Direct?

I don't have Amiibo. And I don't plan on it. So that part wont matter. But hopefully some of my own villagers will just wander in.

Also, hello Kapp'n. New island types! Wow.
