The game also supports the Amiibo cards which had debuted alongside Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer,^[6] and generally requires the use of Amiibo toys for play.^[7]

Development[edit]

Director Aya Kyogoku stated that the game was conceived as a vehicle for the creation of the first Animal Crossing Amiibo: 'Honestly, we just wanted Animal Crossing amiibo. We wanted the company to make Animal Crossing amiibo, so that's why we made a game that works with them.'^[2]

The game was announced during Nintendo's June 2015 Electronic Entertainment Expo press conference for release in Q4 2015 during the holiday season,^[5] later specified as November 2015.^[3] Kyogoku distinguished the game from Mario Party by stating that the latter is more focused on minigames, while Amiibo Festival is more of a board game. The game uses Nintendo's Amiibo protocol to insert characters into the game, with eight different Amiibo toys bundled with the game's release.^[8] The characters each have personal characteristics, including a house associated with the character as designed in Happy Home Designer.^[8]

Nintendo's popular Animal Crossing: New Horizons game has disappeared from China's biggest e-commerce site—and many on Chinese social media are blaming players in Hong Kong, who used the game to spread pro-democracy messages.

Sellers on Taobao, China's equivalent of eBay, found that Animal Crossing had disappeared from their online stores Friday morning, according to independent Chinese media outlet Caijing.

Searches for Animal Crossing on Taobao did not return results for the game on Friday, only Animal Crossing-themed merchandise.

The New Horizons installment was released on March 20 and has found an avid audience among protestors in Hong Kong who have taken advantage of the game's customization features to create anti-government messages. On their virtual islands, characters chant protest slogans and hang up posters criticizing their city's leaders. In one video shared widely on Twitter, players use bug-catching nets to smack pictures of the city's unpopular leader, Chief Executive Carrie Lam.

Players have also held 'memorials' for Lam, standing next to a tombstone and funeral portrait of her while dressed in all black.

Chinese social media users were quick to blame the disappearance of the game on Hong Kong protesters. In particular, they sent angry comments to prominent pro-democracy activist Joshua Wong, who last week shared a screenshot of his virtual island and said protestors were 'taking their cause' to the game.

'Politicizing such a beautiful game, can you go and die?' one tweet to him read. Backpacking mac os. Similar comments were posted to Wong's Instagram account.

Animal Crossing has not been officially released in mainland China, where strict regulation of the video market means that only three Nintendo Switch games—all of them from the Super Mario Bros. series—are formally distributed.

Instead, Chinese gamers purchase the overseas versions of the game informally, relying on platforms like Taobao or other gaming stores.

It's not clear whether the game was targeted by Chinese officials, but the Communist Party's censorship apparatus has been used to ban everything from Winnie the Pooh (due to comparisons with Chinese leader Xi Jinping), to broadcasts of the NBA after the general manager of the Houston Rockets expressed support for pro-democracy protests in Hong Kong.
