Hi there. Been around ACC since forever ago; probably had my first account when I was 10 years old. I'm 20 now and am re-discovering Animal Crossing with the same wonder and enthusiasm that I had for it all those years ago.

I'm looking to get connected with some other mature players so as to get involved with this community again and have some fun. I do not have a Switch yet but plan to buy one the week of ACNH's release. If anyone wants to pre-emptively shoot me a PM or suggest a Discord server, I'm all ears.

Thanks.

I'd recommend checking out the Grownup Gamers boards (particularly GG Animal Crossing and GG WiFi Lobby).

You're the bomb.

Pardon me for not looking further. Been a while since I've posted.

You may have found what you where after on the Grownuo Gamers board, but just in case, I’m 23 (eeek) and also getting back into AC too. I have NL and just preordered the AC:NH Switch and game. I’d love to hang out and chat sometime if you like.

Tbh I think every user that's active on here now is 20+. I'm 27.

As for "mature", well...

I came back to this site looking for the same thing! Joined when I was 10, now 23. Glad I’m not alone and this place is still thriving (:

Once my switch gets in and new horizons is out, I’m definitely looking for some new friends to share in the island fun!

On a different note, there's a 25+ Animal Crossing group on Facebook but I'm a few months short still.

If I've learned anything from joining these AC communities (on Reddit too), it's that I am old.

I just turned 30 a few months ago.

Pocket Camp is my first AC game and I'm really into it now after playing for a month and putting it down before.

Community-wise, a much better and healthier community than the Banjo community I was so diligently following, but boy do you guys make me feel old

banjokaboom - Don't worry, you're not old! I just moved over to the late-30s side of things recently, and I don't feel old at all!

^There are Banjo Kazooie communities?

I’m 25 and very much obsessed with animal crossing. It’s my favorite game ever! I would love to have more friends who play that are around my age. Please feel free to add me so we can connect and enjoy NH together!

I don't feel too old now, but I realized that with ACNH we'll probably see in a shift in the community towards younger players...

The last game came out 7 years ago (for the English versions at least), meaning there's a lot of current young people who were too young to get caught up in ACNL but now own Switches and are looking for new games to explore.

On the other side of the same coin, given the Switch's wide reach, we might also see an increase in older players who simply never gave the series a look before, who figured that they might as well see what all the fuss is about now. I've seen this sentiment here and there whilst reading other sites lately.

I’m 24 & I’ve been obsessed with animal crossing since wild world. I’m so so so excited for new Horizons!! I’m also new to the community and I can’t wait to make friends and visit other islands.

Hey! I’m 22 and have also been on ACC since I was about 10 years old, super excited for NH and would be up for linking up when the game comes out!

Ard - well, DK Vine, but I mostly frequent the Banjo Discussion. I joined because of Banjo.

Hi, it's been a long time since I was here. I had this account since I was 18 years old. I am 32 now. Excited for new horizons. If you want to add me on switch send me a friend request.

Hug  jenny well I was 19 at that time now I 32 as well omg I also returning to ac . We got old &#*Friend Code Detected*;&#*Friend Code Detected*;

PennyGwin - I have friends near my age (27) who say this will be their first AC game.

I'm not a bit surprised. That can only be good for the series' continued growth.

Hey, my name is Dejah and you’re not alone! I just turned 25 and I am so excited to get back into Animal Crossing Feel free to add me, can’t wait to enjoy the island with you all!

Well to make all you "young" folk feel better, I'll be 64 in May, I have played all the AC games and can't wait for March to get here! I have the game preordered, bought the companion guide on Amazon and counting down the days!

24 and also joined this site way back when wild world came out! so nice to see people coming back here. I hope new horizons revives the online community that was here so long ago!

Ditto to all that!  Can't wait to play with you all again.

I'm 24 and I've been playing since the Game Cube days! I'm just now getting involved in the community online because I'm SO pumped for ACNH! I'd love to make some friends & visit your islands Feel free to add me!
