On Very Suddenly Not Liking Animal Crossing

A while back, I was considering doing another Let’s Play for something on the Switch. After all, I enjoyed playing Pokemon Shield, I enjoyed writing about it and I wanted to try and replicate that joy. However, at the time, nothing really sprang to mind. There’s too many games to play, and my Steam library is bloated beyond belief. But what I really wanted to do was play a game on the Switch, while also writing notes right here on the Daily SPUF’s backend. Small problem, I only actually own one other Switch game. And that game is Animal Crossing… [Continue Reading]

Animal Crossing with Family

A while back, I played Animal Crossing on my newly-purchased Nintendo Switch. At the time, I only had two games for my Switch, and I tried to play them both. Warframe was nearly impossible for me to play, and I basically mashed E for melee through every mission. But Animal Crossing was fine, and I played it a little bit, not really having played a Nintendo exclusive game before. At first, I did enjoy Animal Crossing. How could I not enjoy playing Animal Crossing? It’s an insanely sweet game with lots to do as you build your very own island… [Continue Reading]

All These Guys Living Rent-Free on my Island

I’ve been playing Animal Crossing a bit, and honestly, I’m confused. What am I actually doing here? My island, called Kinigi, has a bunch of animals living on it and wandering around the place as if they own it. Why these people are here? Well, I invited them. Most of them. The others visited via my camp site or on their own islands. The first two were quite nice. A rhino called Tank and a cute piggy called Agnes. They were randomly invited to the island randomly and they are fine. As starter villagers, they are both nice, even if… [Continue Reading]

Animal Waiting

For once, I’ve decided to expand my horizons and try a new game. The game in question? Animal Crossing: New Horizons. Animal Crossing is the only game I’ve bought for my Nintendo Switch so far, and it will probably stay like that for a while. My only other game is Warframe but that… don’t get me started on that. Anyway, I’ve been playing Animal Crossing, and I’m slowly working through everything. There’s a lot to do, a lot of work and a lot of tasks at hand and a lot of grinding to be done. I need to go fishing,… [Continue Reading]

Why on Earth would anyone want to come to my Island?

As I play through Animal Crossing – New Horizons, I’ve begun to notice something odd. Everyone keeps on telling me the same thing, over and over. The residents who appeared on my island quickly settled down and told me how much they love island life. And as I got my first visitor from a campsite, I end up hearing the same thing. They love this island so much that they want to live with us. But WHY would anyone want to live in my island? Frankly, I don’t get it. My island is very much unfinished or even that sophisticated.… [Continue Reading]

An Idiot Plays Animal Crossing New Horizons

It’s early December and I have a new game to play. I turn on my Switch Lite and go to the home menu, then select the only game present. After a title screen and a loading screen, I am now playing Animal Crossing New Horizons. Although I’ve seen and heard plenty about this game series, I’ve never actually played Animal Crossing. Granted, I’ve only ever played a handful of Nintendo games, but this is special. This is a Nintendo game which I own alongside my Switch. Anyway, welcome to a potential new series: An Idiot Plays Animal Crossing “Jeez, Medic,… [Continue Reading]

Uncertainties with the Nintendo Switch

I’ve never really owned a handheld console before. The video game consoles I grew up with were all of the larger variety. My main consoles were the Playstation 2, which we bought on release, saving our pocket money. The Playstation 1 was played a lot as well. But we as a family didn’t get a new console until the Nintendo Wii came out. We only had a handful of games for the Wii, and the only one we played was Wii Sports. These days, I’m part of the PC Master Race. Well, I’m not, I play on a mediocre laptop.… [Continue Reading]
