You Can't Invite Hotel Visitors to Move to Your Island in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, and We're All Bummed About It

Image
Animal Crossing: New Horizon's big 3.0 update is now live, and with it a bustling hotel where you can decorate rooms and attract villagers from the game's massive roster of over 400 animals for a visit. But while these visiting pals can wander your island, see the sights, and even participate in activities like Group Stretching, there's one thing they can't do: stay forever. Is it possible to invite Villagers that move into the Hotel to your Island? by u/LennarderPirat in AnimalCrossing The reason this is coming up is because you can invite new animals onto your island in various other ways. If they visit through the Campsite, they can be persuaded to stay. If you encounter them during Island Excursions, you can similarly invite them to come back home and live next door. You can even steal villagers from friends if you visit their towns while that animal is already moving out. But for some reason, the hotel works differently. Animals staying for a vacation won...

Magic: The Gathering's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Set Is Coming Soon, Here's Where to Pick It Up at The Best Price

Image
Magic: The Gathering has a busy 2026 planned , but the last set to be revealed was a crossover with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles . Yes, it marks our second trip to New York in less than a year, thanks to last year's Spider-Man set (seriously, there are infinite dimensions we could travel to!), but the Heroes in a Half Shell are doing things a little differently. Not only does it offer our first Universes Beyond Commander Deck since Final Fantasy, but there are some new product types, too. Here's everything you can preorder. TMNT MTG Preorders in a Half Shell As you can probably imagine, there are more products coming than you can shake a Bo Staff at launching on March 6, with pre-release a week prior from February 27 to March 5. The foundation, as expected, is Play Boosters, and Amazon has a box for $148.20 right now - that's a 29% saving. You can also grab the now-customary booster bundle, which includes a promo card, a series of nine Play Boosters, a stor...

'It's Such a Miracle It Lasted That Long' — Fans Bid Farewell as Nintendo Deletes Animal Crossing: New Horizons Japanese Adults-Only Island

Image
This week, Nintendo finally removed an infamous, adults only-themed island from Animal Crossing: New Horizons . Existing since 2020, the suggestive fan creation was almost as old as the game, and gained much attention from Japanese streamers for its distorted, humorous world view and huge level of detail. Despite years of work being deleted, the island’s creator expressed gratitude to both Nintendo and those who have visited over the years. Literally named Adults’ Island (otonatachi no shima 大人たちの島), the suggestive location was crafted by a dedicated Animal Crossing player who goes by @churip_ccc on X. As spotted by Automaton , the island’s creator took to Twitter / X to comment on its removal from the game. “Nintendo, I apologize from the bottom of my heart,” they said in a tweet with 3.1 million views so far. “Rather, thank you for turning a blind eye these past five years. To everyone who visited Adults’ Island and all the streamers who featured it, thank you.” The creator of A...

Resident Evil Showcase January 2026: Everything Announced

Image
Today, Capcom is holding a Resident Evil Showcase event set to feature "brand new gameplay and news" for Resident Evil Requiem, among other things. The showcase is taking place at 2pm PT, 5pm ET, and 10pm UK, with a post-show discussion stream to follow, though it's unclear exactly what that will be about. Resident Evil: Reqiuem is just a few weeks away, and we've already seen quite a bit of it, including the long-awaited reveal of Leon S. Kennedy , who is apparently going to be playable as well , and what seems to be a tease of an open world ...or at least a pretty big shift in how the series has historically treated its settings. What new surprises could possibly still be waiting at this point? Is Requiem the only game that will be shown, or is there more we should be expecting? We'll be keeping track of everything announced at the showcase today right here, so stick with us and watch along on Twitch or YouTube . from IGN Articles https://ift.tt/ym2F9r...

Amazon Just Discounted Magic’s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Set to Its Lowest Price Ever

Image
Magic: The Gathering’s new Lorwyn Eclipsed set is getting closer, but we can already expect another trip to New York not long after. After the mildly disappointing Spider-Man set , though, we’re hoping the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles collab will be a little more tubular. And, if you’re already sold on meeting up with cardboard versions of the Heroes in a Half Shell, their friends, and their foes, then good news - Amazon is once again discounting boxes of Play Boosters, now down to their lowest ever price . To clarify, this is even better than the deal we saw just before Christmas , which gives us pause for thought. Is the discount indicative of Wizards of the Coast’s expectations for the set? In December, the price dropped to $159.99, bringing the Universes Beyond box of Play Boosters to around the standard price of a Universes Within box, but this now drops even further to $148.20 - the lowest we’ve seen at Amazon. With 30 packs, that’s less than five bucks per one ($4.94,...

Oh My Goodness You Can Jump, Strafe, and Walk Backwards in Animal Crossing: New Horizons Now

Image
Attention Everyone : Animal Crossing: New Horizons has a jump button now! You can also walk backwards, and sideways!!! Why am I freaking out over this? Look. This is almost as exciting as when we all learned New Horizons would give us the ability to sit down on the ground. This comes as a part of Animal Crossing: New Horizon's 3.0 update, which dropped a day early today , giving access to a new Hotel area, loads of new decorative items, some quality of life features like bulk crafting, and Dream Islands you can build alongside friends. But as players have discovered since, it's also added a subtle new feature to aid in construction and placement: essentially, a controlled way to step in the cardinal directions in very precise ways. Tapping and holding L... by u/UpsidedownKoopa in AnimalCrossing This feature is now tutorialed as part of obtaining the Construction App, though it's possible it may be available prior to that, and it's very easy to activate.
