Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer Is Villager Amiibo Compatible

By Jenni Lada July 31, 2015

If you own the Super Smash Bros. Villager amiibo, dust him off for Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer. The 3DS game, which supports the use of Animal Crossing amiibo cards, will give people a gold Villager statue when scanned into the game. So far, it is the only amiibo NFC figure to work with the simulation game.

This bumps up the number of currently compatible amiibo-related items in Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer to 101. The first wave of cards includes 100 major characters and villagers from the series, with future waves of cards set to increase that number.

Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer was released in Japan on July 30. It will be coming to North America on September 25, and later to Europe and Australia on October 2 and 3.
