For those that were part of the Kickstarter, it has been made clear that the developers absolutely intend to bring their game to Switch. Which makes total sense, seeing as how it is super cute and all.
So far, the awesome reviews have just been pouring in, and many of them mention the word “addicting”. One reviewer said, “…it’s like a more in depth Harvest Moon/Stardew Valley. ” Many players are saying that while it has lots of similarities to Stardew Valley, it still stands out as its own magical adventure.

Every purchase will enter you in a chance to win a free Animal Crossing and Polly Pocket inspired Tiny Village.
myPotatoGames is officially opening its own shop. I have gotten such wonderful feedback from everyone on etsy that I have decided that I should take the big step to open my very own shop. This will simplify things greatly for me, and allow me to offer a more streamlined and enjoyable experience for you. In my new shop, you can still find all the wonderful items I have put together, like the Tiny Garden Pals gardening kit and the Polly Pocket styled Tiny Village.
For the grand opening, I would like to offer a chance to win a free Tiny Village to any person who purchases something from my shop. All who make a purchase will have their name entered for a chance to win one Tiny Village, added to their order for free. You will be given one entry per purchase, so you may enter as many times as you like. I am giving away 10 Villages in total, but each person entered may only win one Village. You will receive the Tiny Village once they are ready to ship (as the item is still in pre-order stage).
I want to extend a huge thanks to everyone who has helped myPotatoGames get to this point! I am so happy that everyone loves all of the goodies I have made for Animal Crossing fans, and I am super excited to continue making and selling amazing fan merch. Click here to visit my new shop now.

Targets Buy 2 Get 1 sale returns this weekend, and will include many Nintendo Switch games.
This weekend, Target is the place to be for anyone currently looking to get some great games at amazing prices. While I wouldn’t expect ACNH to be a part of this, there were some games displayed in the add that are certainly worth considering.
A few of the games (and add-ons) to be on sale were displayed in the Target ad; games like Just Dance 2020, Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games, NBA 2K20, and the Fortnite Darkfire Bundle. Target mentions that there will be hundreds of titles available through the sale, but they did not provide a full list.
It seems like even Target beats out GameStop these days when it comes to deals on games, and just having gamer gear in general. I just got a few Animal Crossing plushies from there yesterday, and haven’t seen any AC merch at GameStop outside the physical copy of the game. Looks like Target is set to be the new standard for gamer shopping.
This sale is set to run from 3/29 to 4/04. For more information on what will be included, visit the official Target website.
