How to Use an Animal Crossing amiibo Card to Call an Animal to a Facility (Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer)

Nintendo 3DS

In this article, you'll learn how to use an Animal Crossing amiibo card to call an animal to a facility and assign them a role.

You can assign a role to the animal feature on the amiibo card. However, there are certain animals who won’t play roles.

Complete these steps

  1. Visit a built facility and tap the amiibo card icon on the touch screen (bottom left).
  2. Tap an animal role for whom you would like the Animal on the amiibo card to fulfill.
  3. If you are using the Nintendo 3DS NFC Reader/Writer, turn it on and prepare it for accessing data; otherwise, continue with the next step.
  4. Follow the instructions and when prompted, place the Animal Crossing amiibo card of the animal you want to visit on the NFC area of the touch screen (New Nintendo 3DS system) or on the NFC Reader/Writer.
  5. Once all animals have been assigned roles, tap Confirm to save.
