For those players who don’t use the Nintendo Switch Online smartphone app, it has some use for a number of the Switch’s best games. One of the most helpful apps relates toAnimal Crossing: New Horizons, and lets players keep track of in-game statistics right from player’s phones. Now, players can use the NookLink app to search for and check their in-game catalogue without having to access the game. Players who do a ton ofshopping inNew Horizonsare going to find this feature very helpful.
One interesting thing about the in-game catalogue is that it actually keeps track of some rare collectables as well as everyday furniture items. Specifically, the catalogue keeps track ofRedd’s paintings and statues inNew Horizons, meaning players can easily keep track of whatever museum items they have already purchased. Additionally, players visiting a friend who has Crazy Redd on their island can use the catalogue app to easily check if they own any of the pieces Redd has for sale.
The catalogue may not be the most organized system inNew Horizons, but it is still helpful when managing one’s overall furniture collection. If players have taken advantage ofNew Horizon’s newly expanded storage space, they may have over 2,000 in-game items to keep track of. All in all, the new catalogue app makes for another helpful addition to NookLink’s growing repertoire of functions. With any luck, Nintendo will keep updating the app with even more features like this one.
Odds are, Nintendo will keep the NookLink app updated for some time consideringAnimal Crossing: New Horizonsis still getting updated almost a year after release.New Horizons’ next big updateis scheduled to happen in January.
