The usual method of obtaining one of these is through managing to nab one of the accompanying AR cards at an event, for each card contains a code on the back. To date the only event Nintendo have distributed these at in Europe has been Hyper Japan 2015 (which Cyburn recently covered). We have a feeling they’ll be featured at more events over the summer, however, especially with the impending releases of Animal Crossing franchise additions Happy Home Designer for 3DS (set for release in Europe on October 2nd) and Amiibo Festival for Wii U (also coming later this year)".
The Animal Crossing games hold a special place in our hearts. They're not free from our judgment, however. Let's rank them all!

Even more than a decade removed from launch, the system’s library has so many titles that feel as fresh today as they did back at release. While it was hard to narrow down, these 30 Nintendo 3DS games are emblematic of the system’s success."

But unlike the Switch release, the 3DS game was a flop, both in sales (for the series) and reception. So what happened and was Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer really that bad?"
