"Through obtainable retro console items, you can play classic Nintendo games in your villager's home--though only if you have a Nintendo Switch Online subscription. Among the additions in the game's version 3.0 update is a resort hotel run by Kapp'n and his family; if you help them out at the hotel, its souvenir shop will offer retro Nintendo toys and game consoles, including the Game Boy, NES, and SNES."
"The trailer shows the player character booting up the NES classic Ice Climber, but it's unclear if you can play more than one game per system, and which games are available to play. Of course, if you have an active Nintendo Switch Online subscription, you can already play games like Ice Climber on Nintendo Classics applications; playing these games through Animal Crossing: New Horizons is more of a novelty."
Version 3.0 of Animal Crossing: New Horizons adds a Kapp'n-run resort hotel where players can assist staff and access a souvenir shop. The souvenir shop sells retro Nintendo toys and playable game consoles such as Game Boy, NES and SNES. Players can place these consoles inside homes and launch a select classic game on each system, though playing them requires an active Nintendo Switch Online subscription. The update shows Ice Climber booting on an NES, with details on available titles and per-system game counts unclear. The update also adds Lego furniture and items inspired by The Legend of Zelda and Splatoon, arriving January 15, 2026 alongside the Nintendo Switch 2 Edition.
