Follow up question: are you picking up some sort of stylus? I've actually considered getting brain training for its included stylus but alas maybe its not that good for designing in new horizons 🤔

Follow up: because i cant seem to find the stylus separately on Norwegian webshops that is

I was going to wait and see if just using my fingers/the face buttons on the controllers would be OK enough before committing to anything 😅

apparently the official nintendo stylus is p much a gussied up version of the kind you can get for your phone/tablet (the switch uses the same sort of screen), so if you have one of those, it should work fine. Might not feel great but it does the job.

This video has a good overview of a range of styli. Dunno if I'd go with the digiroot one, seeing as I don't think animal crossing's pattern making is all that sophisticated enough to need a fine point, but it's good to see the option is there.

What sort of accessories and stuff will you be getting for march twentieth?? :0 any good tips or cool things you've seen?

hello! i’ve been meaning to write down everything i’ve ordered/yet to buy to stay organised, so thank you for sending this!

I’ve already ordered a screen protector (i just looked for a reasonably priced one with good reviews, dunno if there are any big brand ones. think i got the ivolver ones because my sister has a switch lite and they had a pack of 5 or something), and the store i’m getting the bundle from also sells the aloha switch case, so i can pick that up right away.

other than that, i’ve gotten a 32gb microsd card (this one seemed a good fit for me because i tend to go for physical over digital games, but i do still like having digital games, and i delete my screenshots after i post them/save them to my computer), and i’ve preordered the futurepress guidebook. i don’t know if that’ll be vital, but i enjoy having a reference handy (as an aside, for anyone that didn’t know, bookdepository is a little sister company of amazon’s that just sells books, but with free shipping, and sometimes cheaper prices).

besides those, i’m waiting for the powerA wireless controller and this switch stand from hori (they’ve got a plain one on their uk page but i want the AC one lol) to get to amazon uk. the controller is battery operated so i might pick up rechargeable batteries too :0 i don’t know if having a controller will be vital, maybe i’ll like the joy-cons on their own or in the grip, but it might be handy to have an extra while those are charging.

i don’t know yet if i’ll want/need to invest in a powerbank for the switch yet, and apparently it takes a very particular kind, so i’ll need to look into that, if/when the time comes.

as for tips/cool things… i’m part of a couple of animal crossing discord groups, and people tend to share anything they see, or you can always ask! it’s where i asked about microsd cards. i also tend to watch a lot of “X things every switch owner should have!/know!” videos (stuff by wulff den, mostly, but there’s certainly others)

I’m in ireland so i mostly order things from the UK. it can work out a little pricier due to the sterling/euro rates, but for the most part I don’t mind because it’s normally only for things I can’t get here, or are cheaper online (like the microsd card). i had initially ordered the aloha/leaf case from nintendo’s uk store (i have a uk po box), but it was cheaper to get it in-store with the switch, although i had only seen it for sale here by chance.

here’s some links to the discords i’m in rn: sea bass club, a familiar forest

edit: haven’t used it much yet but this site tracks all the price drops etc in the eshop, i have it bookmarked.

a sort of related tip is: if you are gonna use a tempered glass screen protector, try applying it in a bathroom after it’s been all steamed up. apparently the water vapour grabs any loose dust and keeps it away from the screen. my sister did it with her ipad and it worked great!

i’d have to check but mine might have been black and white, i had assumed all lighthouses had a white part, so that might mean there are solid and striped versions of each.

Dunno what kind of music you like but Röyksopp has some pretty neat songs... :0) I get a huge nostalgia feel whenever I hear their song Poor Leno!

oo thank u these are fun! 

also “Röyksopp is the Norwegian word for puffball.“ pls this is so cute i love it

(hope u dont mind that im publishing this, its so i can find it later)

acemilie said: So you think my acnl town from my old 3ds xl will make it just fine? Thank you so much for answering. It’s really reassuring. :-))

Yes! It should! All my data transferred successfully. Even my play coins which I didn’t expect haha. You’re welcome! Don’t be scared to ask me for help!! I’m here for it!!

Hi I need some advice. I've gotten my new 3ds xl hhd edition and I'm worried that my savefiles from my old 3ds xl won't survive a system transfer. You just did this right? Did your savefiles survive a transfer, particularly of downloaded games? :o

Yeah I did! Everything went just great thankfully just took a long while. Two hours I think? 

I was stressing about my downloaded games too. Just make sure your systems are completely charged and everything should be fine in theory.
