Nintendo continues to enrich the Animal Crossing: New Horizons experience for its dedicated community on Nintendo Switch, this time bringing a nostalgic touch to the island life.
The latest update introduces six unique custom designs, each inspired by legendary Nintendo systems such as the Game Boy and Famicom, for players with an active Nintendo Switch Online membership. With over 44 million copies sold since its global launch in March 2020, Animal Crossing: New Horizons has become one of the best-selling titles on the Nintendo Switch platform.
The game's enduring popularity is partly fueled by continuous in-game updates and seasonal content that engage both new players and longtime fans alike. Players who subscribe to Nintendo Switch Online can now access these exclusive classic Nintendo-themed custom designs through the in-game Custom Designs Portal.
Notable examples include a standee modeled after the iconic Game Boy and a T-shirt sporting Famicom motifs, sure to delight those with a fondness for retro gaming aesthetics.
These custom designs provide fans with new ways to personalize their island while paying homage to Nintendo’s rich history of hardware innovation. In addition to wearable and decorative custom designs, Nintendo Switch Online members are granted access to in-game items modeled after classic Nintendo products via the hotel’s souvenir shop.
These special items complement the newly released custom designs, allowing for seamless integration into a player’s unique island decor.
According to a statement from Nintendo, these additions are designed to "enhance customization and celebrate the brand’s legacy." Fans wishing to download these designs can visit the Custom Designs Portal located on Nintendo’s official island within the game.
To experience the authentic Nintendo creations firsthand, players simply need to provide the official Dream Address (DA-6382-1459-4417) to Luna while visiting the dreamscape via their own island bed, provided they have the required Nintendo Switch Online subscription. Access to online features requires a Nintendo Switch Online membership and a Nintendo Account, with membership renewals processed automatically unless canceled.
Certain features may require additional software updates, and online access is subject to availability and regional limitations.
