Animal Crossing: New Leaf is a simulation video game for the Nintendo 3DS. It is the fourth mainline game in the Animal Crossing video game series.

Game-specific quirks

Sudden missing save in un-updated game

If a game with a save file for "Welcome Amiibo" is launched without the update, it may appear as if the save is missing. This can be resolved by installing the update.

When a save file is upgraded for the "Welcome Amiibo" update, the format of the data is also upgraded. The base game uses the garden.dat file, while "Welcome Amiibo" uses garden_plus.dat.

On an unmodified console, the HOME Menu blocks launching New Leaf if it detects that the save was updated and that the game update is not installed. However Luma3DS removes this check, so it is possible to launch an un-updated game with an upgraded save, leading to it thinking the save is missing because it can't find garden.dat.

2016 re-release

This game has a re-release in 2016 with the Welcome Amiibo content integrated into the base game. Gameplay-wise both are identical once the updates are installed, but this means that both have a different Title ID.
