I haven't been able to read this entire thread but, is it just placeable items or can NMT be duped too now?
ALERT! I'M SORRY BUT ALERT!

I doubt it. This glitch is kinda more specific. You can't dupe DIYs, Clothing, Flowers etc.
Only furniture. Thank god though. I'm already suffering from buying items... (SCREAMS @ MUSH DIYs)
yes, I know people's rooms are going funky, I acknowledged that in my post and said it was reason enough to keep me from the dupe altogether. I'm asking if there are any documented examples of this specific glitch (which has nothing to do with the - glitch) causing damaged saves or bricking Switches. if there aren't, that is fearmongering. I understand telling people that exploiting glitches can be dangerous if you don't know exactly what you're doing (and if you're just replicating a video you saw on YouTube, then you definitely don't know what you're doing), but there's no need to tell people that replicating this glitch will eventually kill their saves because we have no evidence of this.

oh thank god, I'm worried its only a matter of time before someone finds a dupe for NMT though ;-;
The fact that it's possible shouldn't be ignored though. I never said it will kill your Switch? I said it could cause a softlock (the room being completely unusable because of bugged cells) or save data corruption. All of it is only exclusive to ACNH. It's a natural response to glitch abuse. I think you're misreading what I said. Also, if multiple duping can cause multiple bugged cells that means it does spread. I understand people being "afraid" of the consequences of duping but I'm merely stating one of the possibilities if you ever try it.
I'm really confused with what you're trying to say to me? (I mean, besides the "fearmongering" point.) Also, the glitch is recently discovered so I can't provide you proof when it just came out to the public. All I can say is it's very unpredictable and could actually hurt your save. That's all.

I'm not particularly worried about dupe glitches as long as they're patched in a timely manner.
If they aren't patched though, I think we'll see major shifts in the economy.
He doesn't care about any of that.
He mentions that disclaimer ONCE. Then proceeds to mention how this glitch is 100% safe and to do it before Nintendo patches it.
He wants views, pure and simple.
Hey guys im kinda new to the Animal Crossing "economy" thing. Can somebody explain why its a bad thing for a mass amount of "rare" items? I saw a Katana going for like 40 nmt a couple of weeks ago and couldn't afford it and now I bought one for 1 nmt. I'm not condoning duping but wouldn't this bring down inflation or something?
You don't understand, the glitch is really dangerous and can cause all sorts of problems, plus the people with REAL katanas now have something worth dirt.
Inflation / deflation is beneficial for some people and harmful for others depending on what you're trying to buy and sell and how you play the game. People who have less buying / selling power due to others duping are the most likely to complain about duping.
I personally think the devs trying to promote an AC "economy" by increasing the scarcity of desired items / villagers is bad for the game as a whole because it turns an otherwise very chill game into a competitive and cutthroat marketplace with winners and losers which turns AC players against each other.
Even when they do I wouldn't hold your breath. I've spent at least 20 hours at night in July/August and have found 2 Goliath beetles, 1 Giraffe stag, and none of the other expensive beetles. Granted I wasn't looking for them, but I made it a point to walk slowly around trees in case one appeared. I also found 2 Cicada shells which have the same spawn rate, but only worth 10 bells.
Their spawn rates are less than or equal to the Scorpions/Tarantulas spawn rates.

Although I suppose you could make an orchard for the sole purpose of spawning tree insects, I am currently changing mine to be spaced wider. When trees are too close or hidden, insects don't spawn on them.
He's just a parasite at this point, in relation to the AC community. Other YouTubers are doing the same thing.
Unfortunately, YouTubers have been harmful for the whole gaming community for years.
I saw another video where you can unglitch the squares in the room by putting the table on top of those squares, leaving the room and coming back. They'll reappear on top of the table.
People should make sure to clean up any invisible objects after performing the glitch because we don't know what would happen with a patch for this dupe glitch. For example, they could remain permanently stuck like that if you don't clean up.
I knew about it but was very vague about it (like calling it "certain conditions") tbh, I don't feel like aiding dupers (sorry if it's mean) so I left that out.
And that too. If you fail to clean it up...exactly. I shudder of the thought.

Can fish bait be duped? I thought you can only drop them and that this glitch also only works on placeable items—which I know was the case with the first dupe glitch, and I feel like if dropped items could ever be duped everyone would be duping tons of NMTs—but maybe I’m wrong here somewhere.
To be honest with you, I don't really understand the hostility in this thread to dupers. I mean I can understand the criticism you and others made about the youtubers that they didn't give proper disclosure to their young and impressionable audience of the glitches it could cause and the risks.
But really, I don't want people to be "punished" for duping by their rooms or towns that they put 180+ hours into getting messed up. I think a lot of people do it just to see if they can, out of curiosity, not for any profit.
I don't know because I didn't look at how exactly the glitch works. I remember people saying the first duping glitch only worked with placeable items, but I'm not sure if it's still the case this time. As fish bait is a 1x1 item, and I don't have confirmation on how exactly the glitch works, I'm halting and avoiding trades.
you said "brick", so I assumed you meant it could brick the Switch. again, you say the glitch may cause save data corruption, but there's no evidence pointing to that. there are plenty of documented cases of people duping items and zero documented cases of people losing their saves because of it. that's what I mean by fearmongering. there's no need to appeal to fear to convince people not to dupe. the fact that duping and then trading the duped items online is unfair to other users should be enough to convince people not to dupe.
I guess that's what bothers me about the fearmongering, really, the fact that we need to threaten people with save data corruption to stop them from abusing glitches that could give them an unfair advantage. that shouldn't be necessary. the fact that it's unfair to other users should be reason enough not to do it.
again, there's no evidence whatsoever that this glitch is dangerous at all.
