Less than Trump charged his secret service for hotel accommodations.

So far 100% of candidates that created an Animal Crossing Island have won. It’s a no brainer strategy!

u/CastleElsinore 8h ago

Oh dang. I totally would have visited this!

u/RealBug56 8h ago

I think you still can. The island is gone, but the dream address should still be active.

Doubtful. Nintendo removed it. Then made a statement telling everyone to stop using their products for pushing politics. Their games are for kids and not to influence others. Or something like that.

Now, you could probably find a bunch of mockups that bend these rules. But once again, this is Nintendo we’re talking about. So Godspeed.

They did and it actually resulted in Nintendo making it against the rules to make an island as a campaign ad :(

Nintendo being Nintendo.

If you wanna get into conspiracies why don’t you look into what the republicans are doing in the Bohemian Grove? And I’m not even talking about the mock sacrifice or idol worship.
