Disheartened Animal Crossing player spends two years designing every DLC vacation home — Nintendo gives “absolutely no acknowledgment”: “In Breath of the Wild, they give you a little golden turd”

“After countless hours of designing hundreds of homes, I think I finally did it… I’ve made all of the vacation homes,” the player wrote, adding that after earning the achievement for 350 homes “the number of animals needing vacation homes was dwindling. And then there were none, and I was alone on the beach.. :(“

Well I think I did it 🙁 from r/AnimalCrossing

For those who haven’t tried it, Happy Home Paradise transports you to a resort island where villagers describe their ideal getaway and you bring that vision to life with themed furniture and decor. In return you earn Poki to buy items and unlock features — from room partitions and extra customization options to the ability to redesign houses on your home island. I haven’t personally reached anywhere near 350 homes, but that appears to be the point at which Nintendo stops offering further recognition.

“I’m almost disappointed that there is absolutely no acknowledgement, like congratulations you’ve designed all the homes woooh,” Beautiful-Support added. “I’ve been going back to re-design homes for the extra poki, but I’m so lost now!”

In a comment, the player says it took them about two years to finish every available home — which makes the lack of any celebratory fanfare especially deflating. As another top reply points out, other games hand out quirky completion rewards — for example, Breath of the Wild gives a small golden keepsake for finding all 900 Korok seeds. Classic Nintendo.

This ridiculously blatant Animal Crossing somehow made its way onto the PlayStation Store, but I have a hunch it won’t be there long
