July 3rd Summer Update Discussion Thread

[Hydrangea028]

Mermaid set omg! I do wonder what is the materials needed though, do them come from diving perhaps?
I am excited to see how many sea creatures and how they are placed in the museum!
August update...maybe something related to fireworks show? Though at the moment I cannot think of anything that can be added into both summer and winter for NH and SH players.

Everything in southern hemisphere just feels idiotic at this point. When its summer we celebrate....christmas? What? it doesnt make sense anymore ;-;


ikr! At least give brewster!

How does Christmas during the summer not make sense for the southern hemisphere? It has always been during the summer for them.

I’m excited for some new things to do! I still wish we could see underwater. Look at some coral reefs and stuff.

 

[Envy]

Interesting they're keeping silent about August.

Also I wonder what the updated Gulliver does. Does this mean the return of the furniture he gave in NL that we don't have (seeing as not all were included in NH)? That's neat.

Some people do. That is why when you start your island you have a choice between northern and southern hemisphere. I have a bunch of friends who live in Australia, and they all chose Southern Hemisphere for their islands, because they wanted them to feel more connected to their real life. And I know a few of them are disappointed with how Nintendo has been handling updates to this game, since they feel left out in regards to new activities feeling fitting for their islands.

The August update can't just be Fireworks. I think it's too small of an update to even separate that for it's own announcement.

I'm hoping for Brewster and Gyroids. Or maybe a new island to visit that has Tortimer or Kapp'n.

Yeah, I agree, Christmas in the winter is what would feel wrong to me when everything in the game is according to real life

 

[pitchtheripoff]

I AM FREAKING OUT SO BADLY
I MISSED DIVING SO MUCH AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

 

[Heyden]

I missed you Pascal

 

[Mayor Moon]

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

 

[Emmsey]

Wahooooooo!!! Swimming and diving was always one of my favourite parts and I am totally in love with the little flourish it looks like they have added this time around! Can't wait!

 

[Venn]

So excited! I also like how we can do a flip going into the ocean now rather than just fall into the ocean like we did in New Leaf.

 

[LunaRover]

That flip thoughhh. Looks like it will be a pretty decent update. Always loved the garden eels at the real aquarium so this ought to be a nice addition C: Hype! (also this explains why gulliver deserted temporarily I guess??)
