DO NOT PAY TO CATALOG POSTERS! I got mailed a Celeste poster and it's still not in my catalog.

If you have not updated yet, try to buy them before updating.

Unless you have invited the villagers to Harv or scanned in their amiibo cards, their posters have been removed from your catalog.

I no longer have the npc or Sanrio posters in my nook shopping anymore.

I didn't know you could get posters in the catalog without scanning them in or inviting them to Harv's? 🤔
 
Apparently the posters being available in that way was always glitch from the beginning and they finally decided to patch it out in this update.

Just a bummer that it was actually a helpful glitch that really didn’t need to be removed.

Thinking about it some more this morning, it's a bit funky to me that this got patched (?) with the update after Nintendo announced that they would be re-releasing Amiibo card packs in the U.S. again. Perhaps I'm overthinking. 🤷‍♀️

I think it's a cash grab. The hacked items I know of got removed from the game. Maybe they decided to remove the posters as part of the hacked items removal? Or cataloging posters wasn't intended of them but it's still bad on them since it has been half a year since release.

But why not just go to the poster tab, I would think that would be easier.

Because the poster tabs is only for villagers and amiibos you have invited to Harv's. Catalog posters didn't show up there and now they won't with this new update.

Ooof, I didn't know the posters being available by searching the catalogue was a bug since release. This makes me lean heavily towards the cash grab motivation as well. That kind of leaves a sour taste in my mouth, to be honest. :/ I hope I'm not being petty, lol. Doesn't help that the small pool of cash grab end-users will probably buy up a good chunk of the Amiibo card packs to upsell them.
 
This is sad news, I’m so glad I only ever traded for posters rather than cataloguing them. I think they will only be in your catalog if you yourself have the amiibo and scanned them in or they were your villager you summoned to harv’s island. I also don’t have any of the Sanrio posters in my catalog because someone gifted them to me so I’m glad I kept my copies of the posters rather than giving them away.

definitely a cash grab by Nintendo, no doubt about that!

Oh I now understand the problem. I can see how that would be problematic.

You would search "poster" instead of going to the special poster tab.

Oh, I didn't even know about that! that's really unfortunate that they removed the ability to re-order posters from villagers/NPCs you haven't scanned in.

If it was a glitch, why did they take this long to patch it?

I dunno, sometime they just are really slow doing it which sucks because like, people used it so much and I can imagine it was helpful. Luckily I saved all my mail stuff and I'm not a cataloging person who need everything but yeah man, major bummers.

I'm still on the theory that it is a cash grab since they announcement last week they were going to release series 1-4 amiibos.

What the heck man? If this was always a glitch, why didn’t they just patch it earlier on instead of waiting 6 months to fix this?

It probably wasn't a major concern of theirs until they decided to re-release the amiibo cards. Just like how the star trees weren't a major concern until the dream suite was added.
 
For sure this is a bummer since I also got Dunquixote's help and now the posters are gone... Where I live amiibo cards aren't quite popular at stores and aren't particularly cheap and I'm pretty afraid of diy amiibo cards. So my best option was to catalog them as I did 😔
