You can scan amiibo cards on the right stick on the switch lite. You do not need to buy a pro controller or separate joycons.. this is a very important point not illustrated in the video which can be slightly misleading
A tip about find them that I would suggest is go to a Target if they're local Nintendo and Target seem to have a little agreement with amiibo cards and if you're lucky around half of times you'll go there there will be at least one amiibo card pack I would suggest if you're planning on getting more in the future get around 3 packs so far I have gotten four because the first time I went there was only one card pack on the shelf and I really gotten to duplicates both from the first pack I got
I just got some amiibo cards and I had absolutely no idea what an amiibo was but I knew I wanted my favourite villagers cards- this is SO HELPFUL thank you!
If you look at most third-party controllers made by Hori they have NFC support! the switch light even has NFC support your joy cons have NFC support and the pro controller has NFC support you don’t spend $90 on a pro controller to get NFC support
Thank you for this video because I was confused prior to this. You can’t have some of them be villagers unfortunately like Isabel or CJ or anyone like that
This was my first time buying amibo cards, and all of the options I got where pretty decent; i got Sherb, Reneigh, Marina and more.. sadly I didn’t get kolbot or stitches but still a solid first time buying amibo cards
I’m new to amiibo cards. I’ve had the game since it came out but was never really interested in amiibo cards. I recently started wanting to get some, I just don’t want to buy them yet without knowing exactly what they do. Are they reusable? If I use one to invite a villager to move into my island can my sister use the same card for her game? If I invite cj or flick, someone like that, can I sell them stuff? Or buy stuff from other characters like Sahara? Will the characters that you invite over walk around on your island or do they only stay in the campsite?
They are reusable. In fact, you have to invite NPC villagers 3 times/days (and build them an item they request) in order to invite them to your town. As for special villagers, (such as Isabelle, Tortimer, Resetti, Nook, Mabel, ect.) I'm not sure, but so far I can only invite the ones I have to the cafe. I'll have to look up what else they do.
I admit I got that game mostly for the Amiibo. Though, admittedly it's not as "terrible" a game as some say. It's just a very simple board game, so don't expect "Mario Party."
Yes it works just fine. The nfc scanner is located in the right joystick. Hover the card over the stick and they should scan in. It's a good idea to use the amiibo icon at the back of the card as an indicator of where the nfc chip is so you know the correct section is hovering over the right joystick to be scanned. Hope this is helpful.
@@beauwalker9820 how??? Idk how to get of my gorilla villager, I don’t like him at all😭I already tried not speaking to him and ignoring him but he is still there it’s annoying
i know this is about ac but i have a question, so i got the splatoon amiibo cards today from amazon but idk why they don't work and now that u mentioned that about third party controllers dont work for it i wanna know if having a pair of joy cons that aren't original from nintendo is the reason of why the splatoon cards i got don't work, if anyone can help i'll appreciate it a lot
Hi! I had a friend give me amiibo cards for the first time and I wanna know how to use them. But I don't have my joy sticks and I only have a wireless sonic pro controller that I use and idk if it's able to scan
@martinmor9670 it's a Horipad wireless controller but it's branded under Nintendo. It still sadly won't work...should I contact Nintendo and see what they can do?
@@unpretentiousgamer2358 that’s won’t help unless you have a controller that is amibo supported you can look up “Nintendo switch controllers that support amibos”
It dosnt work for me Ive been waiting a week just for my ATM to say I can invite a villager through amiibo im still waiting and its still not here do the blue and red controllers work for it? Idk please help :(
I have a question which I can't seem to express correctly for the Google folks. Can I buy a cartridge for acnh while having acnh installed directly into my lite? Wondering if the main character can then fly to each other's island on one system. Too expensive to experiment with so I thought I'd ask a human more brillianter sounding than me. I just want cherries. Seems ridiculous now that I've written it out.
If you have a digital copy of ACNH on your switch and you insert an ACNH cartridge, you’ll only be able to play on the one same island. This is because Nintendo locks one island per switch, even if technically you’re using two copies of the game.
If you buy a flipper zero when they are in stock for about 170$ you can download a file so you can get every amiibo for every games so you don’t have to waste your money on the amiibos but do not buy if you don’t know how to code😊
How many Amiibo cards do you have? I have too many
same i have like 45 lol

I have none. I think I'll start buying a few
Around 40 idk
amiibo cards are basically: "goodbye ugly villager hello dreamie"
True bro
Also just in case for all of you guys who have a Nintendo switch light I can confirm it works

I love you right now 🤩🤩🤩
@Random person so do I 😏😏
Oh my god! You saved my life, definitely will try that! Thank you ☺️
Ty!
I just got some amiibo cards and I had absolutely no idea what an amiibo was but I knew I wanted my favourite villagers cards- this is SO HELPFUL thank you!
Would be worth noting Nintendo switch lite also has nfc capabilities as I was looking it up. And it'd be located on the right stick.
Fake ones can also work. the game doesn’t detect fakes because it’s an nfc tag not a software
Tbh, i bought a fake one today from aliexpress (its bill btw)
wth?
Excellent video! Quick, simple and easy to understand. I never knew what Amiibo was. Now I totally get why it's an important part of gameplay.
I was super confused, too!!!! 🤣✌
Her: how i get amiibo cards
People who know how to make amiibos: *hold my money*
You can make them!?
@@megolass yepp!
I had the 3rd party animal crossing controller. I switched controllers and it worked. Thank you for mentioning that! Saved me a ton!
If you look at most third-party controllers made by Hori they have NFC support! the switch light even has NFC support your joy cons have NFC support and the pro controller has NFC support you don’t spend $90 on a pro controller to get NFC support
Me who just bought them off of Amazon:
“I am 15 parallel universes ahead of you.”
Thank you for this video because I was confused prior to this. You can’t have some of them be villagers unfortunately like Isabel or CJ or anyone like that
Sorry to reconfirm but does that mean the nooklings and wisp can't live on your island? 😢
@@emmalenling6895 that is indeed the truth 😥 they can’t live on our island
This was my first time buying amibo cards, and all of the options I got where pretty decent; i got Sherb, Reneigh, Marina and more.. sadly I didn’t get kolbot or stitches but still a solid first time buying amibo cards
Yeah bro that's really good!
I'm still bitter pirate Gulliver doesn't have a card
can’t you pick which character to kick out of the island if you use an amiibo to invite a character?
Does this work on OLED switch or do I need to buy a separate controller?

I got some in Wii U game Animal Crossing Amiibo Festival it came with 2 Amiibo Isabelle and Digby and 3 cards Goldie,Rosie, and Stitches
I admit I got that game mostly for the Amiibo. Though, admittedly it's not as "terrible" a game as some say. It's just a very simple board game, so don't expect "Mario Party."
I once saw a one cent Isabelle card-
I found Animal crossing amiibo cards on a near by target, im so lucky
I have the Sanrio cards but they aren’t working, they used to work then I put them somewhere and now they wont work to Invite someone to the Cafe
You can just flat out the Amiibo cards you want on eBay.
This is more expensive, but takes out the chances of only getting Amiibos you don’t want.
Does anyone know where to get Cookie's amiibo card?
There are 6 cards in the packs in America??? Damn I'm jealous lol
me too!! :( I get 3
:/ I got three and I’m in America
Maybe those are the sanrio ones
It took me at least a month to final find amiibo cards in Australia ( I got them in the city)
Thanks so much!! Just got amiibos so helpful:)
I just bought a pack last night from amazon so that I can have more residents on my island.
Can I use Amibo cards with the ACNH Switch Lite?
Yep! Just put the amiibo card on the right joystick and itll read it no problem
Also can confirm works on the switch lite including with the joy stick caps on it reads them just fine
Yes it works just fine. The nfc scanner is located in the right joystick. Hover the card over the stick and they should scan in. It's a good idea to use the amiibo icon at the back of the card as an indicator of where the nfc chip is so you know the correct section is hovering over the right joystick to be scanned.

@@saphirothplaysbad4708 I guess that's my problem. I only have the handheld console. I don't have the joystick or caps. 😟
@@helenmcwherter4154 we all told you it works for switch lite
This is so cool!! Now I gotta collect these things 😂😂 *looks at my Pokémon cards*
i’m so glad they lunched a 5 amibos!
I’m really new to amiibo cards, what does it mean if the card is sparkly?? I’m just interested to know because I got Phyllis and her card shines.
All the special NPC characters get shiny Amiibo cards
question that needs a answer: are you using the ones that work with the three DS and Wii U? or the lastest type
Thankyou for explaining this i love this game so much I hope I can find them
Can you get rid of an existing villager and replace them with an amiibo character?
yessss!
Yes! You have to invite your wanted villager 3 times 1 time a day, make their DIYs and all that
Yes, you can even chose who moves out.
@@beauwalker9820 how??? Idk how to get of my gorilla villager, I don’t like him at all😭I already tried not speaking to him and ignoring him but he is still there it’s annoying
So can I do this if I’m new to ACNH? I just finished building my 1st extra new plot. Can I buy a Patches Amiibo or Apollo Amiibo?
Where should you buy them? There are definitely some cards that I want.
I can only find them in Target lately. Bought a Series 1 & Series 2 pack there recently.
@@beauwalker9820 so America, great... thanks anyways.
@@Christian-Rebel amazon or ebay
I would love to have a amiibo card of Yuki, Raymond and Coco ;w;
thx for this video!
Where do I look to find these cards?
Specifically the ankha card. I’ve spent 400+ tickets with no luck.
i know this is about ac but i have a question, so i got the splatoon amiibo cards today from amazon but idk why they don't work and now that u mentioned that about third party controllers dont work for it i wanna know if having a pair of joy cons that aren't original from nintendo is the reason of why the splatoon cards i got don't work, if anyone can help i'll appreciate it a lot
Not to mention there are 50 welcome amiibo that works the same like all animal crossing amiibo cards
It’s sad in a way. So many things are poorly advertised. I haven’t see or heard anything about these in Europe.
i live in sweden and i acually found them i'm so happy
Hi! I had a friend give me amiibo cards for the first time and I wanna know how to use them. But I don't have my joy sticks and I only have a wireless sonic pro controller that I use and idk if it's able to scan
It should still work if it’s an Nintendo brand controller

Where do u buy the amiibo cards
Question, do I need to have certain locations on acnh to redeem the amiibo bcuz I'm still working on upgrading my residents service
It dosnt work for me Ive been waiting a week just for my ATM to say I can invite a villager through amiibo im still waiting and its still not here do the blue and red controllers work for it? Idk please help :(
The Nintendo switch lite the regular Nintendo switch and the switch OLED all have NFC support on the right stick
I have dragos amiboo and i time travelled 4 times and invited him and he still dont want to move in
My bestie just got me two packs and I got my two dreamies🤩
Sorry but can you get wisp or the nooklings live on your island
Does it work with no controller on the switch lite?
What do the sp cards do? Like isabelle?
They're not working for me I've been trying for days I have the right controller

Hey @@ceomg I think we can buy the amiibo cards directly from the Nintendo site rigth ?
Thank you for this, I had no idea what amiibos were.
I've invited a villiger to my island be there not there is there like a reason?
Do you have to upgrade resident services first?
Yes I think so
You need the campsite: You don't get the campsite until you upgrade Resident Services.
Can you get Daisy Mae as a permanent villager with amiibo cards?
Special villagers like her can't move into houses. They can only visit in the cafe, and such.
I still don’t have that NFC setting yet am I doing something wrong? I have the camp site
Do you mean you can’t scan in amiibos to the campsite yet?
I have a amibo character question, I use nr33 ellie elephant they should have come with furniture but I can’t get it. Is the version not support?
Regular villagers do not add in special furniture for you to buy
@@ceomg ah ok , thanks ceomg, but I hear it long ago have a way to exchange there house furniture item right?
Can you have more than 3 ambiio villagers move to the island?
Do you have to get Town hall just to Invite the villagers?
Yes you need the town hall to use amiibo cards to invite villagers to your island

I want to get ankha, but getting her card is just pure luck, so.
Can you print it?
:)
U can buy it on allie and it works
I just restarted my island, this is the first time I got Amiibo cards. When can I use them??
You should have said it works on lite bc I nearly had a heart attack bc I've payed £10 on Judy's amiibo card I nearly cried so hard
Can you move villagers out with them?
Do the cards work for new leaf?
Only new horizons
I only have them because of etsy 😭
How do I get rooster???
You need to get the museum upgraded
Does this work on animal crossing pocket camp?
just acnh
@@ceomg okay Tysm!:D
I have no amiibos but can you use them with no internet?
yup! No internet needed to use them
Does anyone know if they will put out 1-4 again?
Idk but I hope so 🤞
I've seen Series 1&2 at Target recently.
Do the original controller that come with the switch
So you have to buy them?
Yes, but they are not too expensive, especially if you buy specific ones
If we join and pay monthly how do we go to your islands?
you have to connect youtube to discord
@@denkitopia tysm idk why I didn’t see your comment back earlier; sorry and thanks for telling me 🥰

I very jealous of America of how many cards are in the pack
How much does it cost over there?

@@ceomg ohh thank you
In Australia it cost $4.95AUD, But if I convert that in usd it’s $3.34
