>"Animal Crossing: New Horizons continues to be a hub for creativity as one fan recreates the intro scene from Super Smash Bros. on Nintendo 64."
Nintendo's Animal Crossing: New Horizons reached its first anniversary last month, and there are plenty of active players even if the game isn't quite as big of a phenomenon as it was in March 2020. There are still updates planned, with Nintendo highlighting the return of New Horizons' cherry blossom trees in April 2021 amid Bunny Day celebrations. As players continue to log in, they will also use the game's creative systems to their advantage, with one fan recreating the intro from Super Smash Bros. on the Nintendo 64.
Thanks to custom outfits, island renovation, and sometimes clever editing tricks outside of the game, Animal Crossing: New Horizons players have made all kinds of references to video games and other pop culture staples over the last year. One stand-out example in recent memory is a Disney's Hercules song recreated in New Horizons, and the take on Super Smash Bros. uploaded by YouTuber Great-Bit Arcade on March 25 is similarly notable for the extra effort put in.
