Nookazon Is Like Amazon for Animal Crossing: New Horizons Players

Further proving Animal Crossing: New Horizons players are so helpful that it’s sometimes a little scary, talented fans have created Nookazon, an Amazon-like online storefront for player trading. The Animal Crossing community is at once one of gaming’s most easy-going and among the medium’s most staunchly dedicated around, but it’s astonishing to see something like Nookazon pop up so early in the game’s lifespan.

Since launching less than a month ago, Animal Crossing: New Horizons (with help from the widespread coronavirus-driven quarantine) has brought out the most creative players the medium has to offer, save only for games that are solely comprised of community content like Dreams. Players have produced a bewildering array of stuff to share with others using the most robust creation tools to grace the two-decade-old franchise, making full-fledged minigames to play with friends and more crossovers from beloved series than can be counted.

That level of player dedication has already been taken to one of its logical extremes. On April 9, Redditor cockspicious shared with the Animal Crossing subreddit that Nookazon, a “marketplace to trade items, crafts, and share wishlists,” was open for business. Since, Nookazon has understandably seen a meteoric rise in attention and use, with some tweets about the fledgling site’s very existence getting viral attention in just the past couple days. Nookazon functions much like it’s ubiquitous seller marketplace inspirations, with sellers listing furniture, exotic creatures, and more for sale prices at their discretion, scheduling online meet-ups with buyers, and exchanging bells, items, or even characters for their goods.

Careful readers will notice that the previous sentence has a notable hitch towards its end, and it’s true: along with items, Animal Crossing’s titular villagers are also for sale. Twitter user kwinsii documents the exorbitant prices for which fan favorite animal Raymond is being sold by lucky users, meanwhile characters widely considered unattractive or otherwise unpleasant are being offered for bells on the dollar. Taking advantage of soon-to-be former residents’ last day on players’ islands, animal trading is an exploit that’s been around as long as Animal Crossing has had online functionality, and Nookazon has taken the practice to the mainstream. Some uninitiated players are half-facetiously comparing this growing animal trade to real-world human trafficking, making it the dark side of Nookazon.

Tongue-in-cheek controversy aside, Nookazon will serve as an indispensable online tool for Animal Crossing: New Horizons players, and it’s beyond impressive that an EVE Online-like player-driven economy has sprung up so quickly. However, players should probably still invest in their local Nook’s Cranny, as Nookazon’s utility and impressiveness might not spare it from the wrath of Nintendo’s notoriously leery legal eye.
