Animal Crossing - Merchandise

The Animal Crossing is a series of video games that was first created by Nintendo in 2001 and has gone on to entertain players for nearly two decades with its charming characters, low-pressure gameplay, and soothing music. Recurring characters like Resetti, Tom Nook, and Kapp’n have time and again greeted players in nearly every Animal Crossing game to date, making them rather popular among fans in the community. The success of the series has led to a rather large amount of merchandise to be created since the international release of the original game for the Nintendo GameCube. Although its large cast of cheerful helper characters and adorable animal villagers lends itself well to things like character figures, an incredible variety of other kinds of products have been created as well. These products can range from themed goods and music books to plushies and Amiibo figures. Some of the most popular merchandise in recent times includes the “Easily Play Animal Crossing Super Best Piano Solos” music book, the “Animal Crossing: New Leaf Outing Collection (Set of 5) with free Tom Nook Amiibo”, and an “Isabelle 8” plushie and Mabel Amiibo” set.

About Animal Crossing

Animal Crossing is a video game series that began its first worldwide release on the Nintendo GameCube to great success. Many fans loved the more relaxed gameplay that allowed them to complete tasks at their own pace. Rather than giving players dire goals like preventing the world from being destroyed, games in the Animal Crossing series has its players complete rather mundane tasks like fishing, paying off loans, and doing odd jobs for local villagers. The series also has a rather large list of characters with unique designs and personalities for players to interact with. While some of the more popular characters have gotten their own Amiibo figures, multiple series of Amiibo cards have been released just for Animal Crossing alone, resulting in hundreds of individual cards altogether. With the release on a new Animal Crossing game on the horizon, fans will be able to visit their favorite characters for the first time in almost eight years.
