And downloading from the Japanese store. Honestly, since eShop taxes me and play Asia didn't, the overall price difference was only like $5 to play 12 hours early.... I can live with that. Now just have to wait an almost hour for the download.

Sooo ready for this shit. Trap me on an island Nook, I'm ready.

I've never played an Animal Crossing game. With the current situation of the world, I could maybe go for something calm and relaxing to spend a few minutes on every now and then.

What would be a good review to read/video to watch to get a grasp on what I'd be in for?

I think GameXplain did a good review, this may be exactly what you need friend:

So, what exactly would you be missing out on with no Nintendo Network/Switch Online account? I have a paid Switch Online subscription, but my wife's user profile on my Switch does not. She doesn't even have a Nintendo Network ID (or whatever they call it these days). She'll be playing Animal Crossing at least as much as me, so will she be missing out on anything?
Hanging out with us, and use of QR codes for importing custom designs. There's a graphic somewhere in the thread detailing what is included.

Question: If I pay for something, will I receive the item? Or will Nook scam me and call me a weenie boy?
Actual question: Did we see if there are shop upgrades?

With the Amazon delay, I'm going to see if I can grab it somewhere else tomorrow morning. Have to pop into work anyway to pick up my Record of Employment and there is a WalMart on the way there.

My sisters order of animal crossing from amazon got delayed to the 24th. She called them to confirm since she got an email saying so, but at the same time the orders tracking info said tomorrow. We live close to a warehouse so they dont ever ship our stuff til the night before. The rep confirmed it was indeed delayed but then tried to claim it was because nintendo changed the release date to the 24th.

I get that there is more important stuff to care about right now but I dont get why amazon would outright lie like that. If they had simply said it was delayed due to recent events people (most reasonable ones at least) would understand and not question it. Lying about nintendo changing the release date is only going to frustrate people who catch them in a lie and make more headaches for the customer service reps which is the last thing they need right now.

So do we know if opening your gate in New Horizons to online visitors sets up limitations like it does in New Leaf?

As a refresher for what happens in New Leaf:
  • The Happy Home Showcase is blocked off
  • The Dream Suite is disabled
  • Access to the 'Mayor chair' in Town Hall is blocked
  • Blathers won't accept donations or assess fossils
  • Saharah and similar NPCs seem to leave or are otherwise unavailable (e.g. Gulliver won't wake up) - note this does not apply to Katrina or probably Redd, who have tents.
  • Bees, spiders and scorpions will not appear
  • Favours for villagers, such as deliveries, cannot be performed

I'm not sure about all of these (still downloading) but I do know the other NPCs stick around, and that was touted as one of the benefits to playing online since your friends can have the rare visitors on days you don't.

Hey! Question, will this be playable with the gamecube controller? Or are there too many commands for it.

Nintendo might have shut down buying from outside regions, or at least the AU eshop. I've bought a ton of stuff from there but it wasn't allowing me to do it anymore, kept getting an error

Wow, just saw a guy on Twitch literally fail at properly watering a tree sapling 6 times in a row. Watered every spot but that one. That looks to be slightly triggering to me.
