the next Animal Crossing had a feature where if you wear a diving helmet and a swim suit. You could go underwater and have underwater neighbors such as dolphins, whales, sharks and some that live in water and on land like sea lions, seals, turtles ect.
 
I don't know. I could potentially see it being cool. Maybe it could be like the gamecube island, where you get one villager that doesn't appear anywhere else, and an extra house. I'm not quite sure how much it would take to program an extra village, but one villager would be pretty easy to manage.
 
Too much space to manage and not worth it imo.
Just bring Dolphins and Sharks to live in town and it's all good no need to have separate spots for separate species. It's like saying we should have a fenced off barn area for cows, pigs , horses, and chickens and we can only access it through farmer's clothes. No thanks.
 
I think it would be neat! I would love a little underwater area with perhaps 1 underwater animal villager and I would also love to be able to go into a cave. It is totally over the top but a girl can dream :)
 
Seems a little drawn out to me. Don't see why we can't have those are regular villagers instead. We already have octopi villagers. Underwater areas in games tend to irritate me because they always have a blue layer over what you're seeing making details harder to make out. And everything ALWAYS WIGGLES to show you're under water. >< Agh everything just stay still.

On top of that, I really can't see that much for you to do underwater. I can't really think of ANYTHING special for you to do underwater actually. It's not like you could really use tools down there since water would make you move slow rendering the shovel pretty useless. I guess you could maybe catch fish with the net? But you wouldn't be able to swing as fast, on top of the drag effect the actual net part would have, so they'd probably just out-swim you.
 
Well we already have octopii on land so I don't see this working and to me that'd make AC feel weird.
 
This is what I was hoping for when I first heard of the diving. You would put the helmet on and essentially walk on the bottom of the floor. Think of it as a new town area you could go with all sea villagers.
 
A underwater area would be interesting to walk though like if there were minerals that were underwater.
 
I don't think the shark neighbors would appreciate you fishing them out of the ocean to then shove 'em in the aquarium or sell them for a profit lol
 
I've always loved underwater landscapes, and being underwater can be so calming, so this sort of thing would be really awesome to me. Unfortunately, it's a very hard thing to accomplish in a game, and I don't think it would work very well with animal crossing.

Haha my thoughts also! You know how sometimes villagers will request certain fish? It would be weird if a shark villager requested a shark for his collection :P

That would be great! That's an excellent thinking forward idea. Maybe not so much of having to keep up with those neighbors since you have plenty in town already, but being able to explore the ocean casually at your leisure would be great.

Think like you're inside the museum with the fish, except way bigger, and hidden caves with "island type" residents.

I'd love that.
 
The concept seems nice but I don't think it would really work, it seems like such a fuss just for the sake of having some slightly more "marine" neighbours, but we've got plenty of octopus villagers now who don't live underwater so if they were to include some dolphins or sharks I think they would be given the same land villager experience :)

I agree with what Superpenguin says really, I think that if they were to do this for those kinds of neighbours then why shouldn't they have done so for the horses and cows?

Sounds fun, though!
 
i think it'd be cool if frog/octopus villagers lived near rivers and the beach, and you saw them swimming more often. Idk, subtle things like that.
 
I didn't think a city would work, but there it is! There's a shopping center! So, why wouldn't an underwater theme work.
Maybe Gulliver would be underwater at times, and we could save him. :o
