Animal Crossing: Amiibo Festival announced for Wii U

Nintendo has announced Animal Crossing: Amiibo Festival for Wii U. It’s due out this holiday as a bundle that includes the game, two Amiibo figures, and three Amiibo cards.

The party game challenges players to collect the most Happy Points by the end of a dynamic board game. The board layout can remain the same, but the spaces and environment change, depending on which season players choose for their game. As in other Animal Crossing games, players can buy turnips and use strategy to decide when to sell them for big money.
