My thoughts on the surprising 3.0 update of Animal Crossing: New Horizons for Nintendo Switch (and Switch 2) that Nintendo shocked the world with on a random Thursday (October 30, 2025). It had been four years since the so-called "final" update, so not many people saw Version 3.0 coming. It adds some great new features, and some that I'm not so thrilled about. It even uses an idea that I suggested in a video back in 2019!

Note: I share my thoughts in on-screen text across the top of the screen. The voice heard is from the original trailer: youtube.com/watch?v=7nODHyw3lgs

My ranking of my top-5 most wanted Version 3.0 features from this trailer: jvgs.net/acnhblog/2025/11/08/most-wanted-features-3

What features are you looking forward to? Any that are still missing? Let me know in the comments!
