‘Animal Crossing: New Leaf’ Nintendo Direct Airs Tomorrow Morning

In the previous Nintendo Direct, nestled among the numerous new titles announced was news of an update to the much-beloved Nintendo 3DS game, Animal Crossing: New Leaf. The update, entitled “Welcome amiibo,” was briefly touched upon but viewers were promised a more-indepth video later in the year. Well, that time has almost arrived. Tomorrow, November 2, at 7 a.m. Pacific Time, an Animal Crossing: New Leaf-centric Nintendo Direct will air.
