Animal Crossing: New horizons. Credit: Nintendo. Every once in a while I take a look at the Nintendo Switch top seller list, and there are typically some reliable names on there. This Nintendo Switch™ system takes design inspiration from the Animal Crossing™: New Horizons game, with lovely pastel green and blue Joy-Con™ controllers that are white on the back, white wrist straps, and a white Nintendo Switch dock, adorned with images of Tom Nook, Timmy, and Tommy. The Animal Crossing ™: New Horizons is available exclusively for the Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch Lite systems. Free in-game bonuses for your island getaway Get a download code for themed items to use in the Animal Crossing: New Horizons game and 50 Leaf Tickets to use in the Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp mobile game. Nintendo got away with forcing us to buy one game per user for years and years with Pokemon and Animal Crossing, and now they want us to buy one CONSOLE per user. They had the 'excuse' of lack of memory space with cartridges, but with the Switch, there is literally NO GOOD REASON to do that but CORPORATE GREED. Description Explore a unique world with this Nintendo Switch Animal Crossing: New Horizons Edition console. The green and blue Joy-Con controllers offer precise control and work separately for versatile options, while the white dock lets you enjoy hours of immersive gaming.
