Seems more complete and interesting tho 😭 I'm so sad bc AC had so much potential but they just gave up... And now all these other cozy games are compared to AC, only to realize how better they are in the end 🥲
@illustriouschin Years ago there was a South Park episode about WoW. And in part of it a character mentioned playing a game called with this exact title. It's just funny that a game with that name came out
I'm so glad we get a permanent copy of this game and not have to spend like £6 a month for apple arcade. Absolute game changer, I'm so excited to grind this game!!
The meme from the WoW episode made it over to the Hello Kitty people and they've made tongue in cheek comments about it. They absolutely did this on purpose XD
@cryingwatercolours8127 years ago there was a world of war craft south park episode. Butters in the episode said he didn't play wow he played hello kitty island adventure. The game wasn't real and didn't exist yet. But in either a extreme coincidence or an epic move on the developers part they decided to name the game hello kitty island adventure In 2024
It’s been a game forever! I used to play on my computer as a kid, exactly the same ideas as animal crossing little tasks and fun exploring it’s so much fun!
I hope we get more stuff/content than the arcade version tbh or else what’s the point, other than not spending 6$ a month. Because I’ll still be paying for my subscription as I have other games I play, so it wouldn’t be worth it to also buy it on the switch unless it has more content
I'm sorry, but let's not congratulate them. This should have been the route in the first place. Nintendo caters HEAVILY to indie developers, and Sunblink choosing to go Apple exclusive was a really stupid move. I'm glad it's finally on Switch. It's about time, and it's where it should have been in the first place.
Man, who knew Butters could predict the future? Jokes aside, this actually does seem like a fun game, and an honest celebration of Sanrio's properties while giving off Animal Crossing vibes. Here's hoping this game will be fun.
@@dyanimiteboom8293 I feel like butters, seems like a character who would be very marketable in Japan. He’s just so cute and innocent, that I think that his personality could probably fit in some anime.
@@dyanimiteboom8293 i think its popular world wide but in my opinion the show peaked at season 7 and lost its identity trying to be like TV shows on MTV and other live shows with their characters, now they try to do parodies and references too much. i suppose its better off than the corpse known as modern family guy.
So fun fact: Hello Kitty Island Adventure did not exist as a game in 2006 when the episode “Make Love, Not Warcraft” was released. They named the game after a South Park bit.
So glad this is finally going to be available for the console. I loved the game on Apple Arcade, but didn't want to pay a subscription to play it. So now I can continue playing this when it comes to Switch!
This looks so much more heartfelt than the other (two) Hello Kitty licensed games I’ve seen before. Also, the inclusion of Retsuko feels like a gnarly crossover guest despite her literally being owned by the same company.
I like how we all just ignore the fact that the game starts with all the Hello Kitty characters in an airplane emergency and have to crash land on a deserted island. And that's their life now. Their families, loved ones, and previous lives? Totally gone.
OMG, this looks absolutely adorable and totally sweet! I love Hello Kitty and her friends, especially My Melody, so much! I’d really love to play this game and make my avatar a cat because it’s my favorite animal! I can’t wait to see what else will be in store for us in Hello Kitty Island Adventure! 🏝️👸🏻🧚🏻♀️🧜🏻♀️🧞♀️🩷💝💖💗💕🌹💐🌷🌸🌺🎀🩰🐱🦄🍰🧁🍩
Agrettsuko being there is so funny to me. Like here are all these cute childlike characters. And here’s the middle aged office worker experiencing burnout. Also need to see more My Sweet Piano before I can give my stamp of approval. Also that cute deer one I can’t remember the name of. And that clump of wheat fibers, Cugyumon or something.
Retsuko from Aggretsuko is in this?!?! well, they're both owned by Sanrio, so it makes sense. me, i kinda wish they'd incorporate Catnip from the old Furry-tale Theater cartoon as a background villager or easter egg at some point, her diva personality could fit really well into the cast imo. even though that bat-demon whose name escapes me is Hello Kitty's official Japanese nemesis.
I will never play this but I love that they included Hangyodon. He looks like he's anxious to be alive because life has no meaning, but still trying to have a good time. I relate to him in that way.
I'm happy this is finally coming to switch! It was only available on apple arcade for a while so I couldn't play it, but now I can! (Hello Kitty island adventure is for sure the game of 2024 lol)
"butters, you said youre on your switch all the time."
"yeah, but im playin hello kitty island adventure!"
@Arkham33”o-oh okay…..”
You beat me to it lol!
He freaking predicted the future...
Butters will be so proud
Oh good, i wasn't the only one thinking it.
Forget World of Warcraft. I’m gonna play Hello Kitty Island Adventure
Butters is that you??!!
more respect for our boy Butters
BUTTERS!?
Can confirm butters is correct in his gaming preferences
Cartman and the boys living in 2006 while Butters was in 2024.
I can’t let gang know how excited I was when Hello Kitty was no longer gatekept on Apple Arcade
I literally cried when I saw it on the direct
I hope we'll get Tamagotchi Adventure Kingdom at some point too !
LMFAO SO IT WASNT JUST ME???
Just like me fr
Me too finally no apple arcade payment that system sucks
Animal Crossing but with Sanrio characters ... I need it now!
It exists! There are exclusive amiibo cards for anch that you can use to get villagers. The villagers also will come with items you can buy on nook shopping in the promotional tab!
Seems more complete and interesting tho 😭 I'm so sad bc AC had so much potential but they just gave up... And now all these other cozy games are compared to AC, only to realize how better they are in the end 🥲
If you have an iPad, there's no need to wait! It's on Apple Arcade.
@@kymboyle329yeah but you gotta pay for apple subscription :(
I still playing animals crossing but am sure I will get this game

Butters predicted Hello Kitty Island Adventure!
We got Hello Kitty Island Adventures on Nintendo Switch before World of Warcraft.

Hopefully Butters won't be grounded when this game comes out.
Oh, yes.
I AGREE!! (I'm Stan Marsh btw)
Who is Butters T-T I'm confused
A nice thing for the little guy

No, they 100% knew what they were doing naming the game exactly this
Butters is from south park and there is an episode where they play wow
@@Chrissybabe1095 That's the joke of the original comment though xD
The fact that Aggretsuko is in this game!!
Hype insta preorder
I'M SO HAPPY!! ❤️✨
she deserves the piece in this island 🥲
As long as she doesn’t blow a gasket and break out into heavy metal screeching, I welcome her inclusion
*Retsuko
The anime's name is Aggretsuko.
It is a portmanteau of "aggressive" and "Retsuko".
I'm so glad we get a permanent copy of this game and not have to spend like £6 a month for apple arcade. Absolute game changer, I'm so excited to grind this game!!
@@Keisy111 I think it means that it'll be added to other consoles later on.
I’m super excited as well!!!
I prefer grinding on animal crossing

Who is butters?
@@DevotionalDoodles a South Park character, he likes to play Hello Kitty Island Adventure instead of WoW
@@nattmelankoli バターとは何ですか？
There's no way they chose that name without knowing about the South Park episode. It has to be done on purpose.

someone explain for dumdums like me?

"Hello kitty island adventure" is a pretty generic title, i dont think the sanrio localization team thought about the sp episode
Can't wait till me and the boys can play this
I'm a 28 year old man but I genuinely want this game it looks super chill
FR looks like a cute cozy game
FR. I'm 22 years old yet I'm definitely getting it day one as a longtime Sanrio fan.
there’s a discord server for this game and people of all ages play!
I'm 30 and I love Hello Kitty.
All is welcome 🤷🏻♀️😊
hello kitty saved the direct for me
Yes I need it😭😭
Literally 😭❤️
This and denpamen were all I was interested in.
Same and the Mario and Luigi game.
This, the Zelda game, and Just Dance 2025 are my favorites!
Hello Kitty and Friends taking on an Animal Crossing style town/island customization and exploring game? I love this idea.
It’s been a game forever! I used to play on my computer as a kid, exactly the same ideas as animal crossing little tasks and fun exploring it’s so much fun!

He sure is. 😊
Butters’ prophecy is fulfilled
I remember my friends making jokes about this when I was in high school but I never realized it was a South Park meme
Butters is going feral
South Park jokes aside, this actually looks like it may be good, imma keep my eye on this.
I dont have a nintendo but I still really would enjoy this game
Came here for the south park references and was not disappointed 😅
SAME
Same as someone who grew up with Hello Kitty and South Park.
SAME
I actually looked up the game to see if it was real and guess what? It is real and they actually put it on the Switch.
I don’t play World of Warcraft, I play Hello Kitty Island Adventure. Butters Stotch
we better get all the stuff from the apple arcade version
We most likely will considering its taking til next year to come out

No more World Of Warcraft. Thank you Butters
Woah WOAH WOAH HOLD ON!
1:20 IS THAT RETSUKO?!
Yes, it is.
Sanrio owns the IP, so it makes sense.
It sure is!
I've loved this game so much on Apple Arcade, but I am READY for it on the Switch! Congrats Sunblink! 🥰
I'm sorry, but let's not congratulate them. This should have been the route in the first place. Nintendo caters HEAVILY to indie developers, and Sunblink choosing to go Apple exclusive was a really stupid move.
I'm glad it's finally on Switch. It's about time, and it's where it should have been in the first place.
Are Apple Arcade people able to link their account? I played this on a free trail Apple account. I would like to keep my stuff.
@@sillyhermy sadly probably not but it’s out of the devs hands 😭
Butters is gonna be so happy!!! ^^
Yay, it's finally free from Apple Arcade! I'm looking forward to playing this on Switch!
I want this game on the switch like right now!!! The trailer is like animal crossing new horizons back then, with the narrator and everything.
Butters is very happy rn
Man, who knew Butters could predict the future?

IIRC, South Park is kind of popular in Japan.

FINALLY !!! I was so upset this was only on apple as it seemed perfect for the switch im so excited to play :D
Leopold Stotch is excited
My husband and I have this on our phones through Apple play.. it’s a really fun game and it has a lot of things to collect and quests/story mode
Butters would be proud 😂
This is so true (He will probably warn me and the boys about this and feel excited)
0:55 is that Retsuko from Aggretsuko?
Sure looks like it.
Yep! I’m not exactly sure how to get them but they’re in the game : D (I’ve never watched the show lol idk what their gender is)
This looks like it has the best bits of animal crossing, top down zelda and animal jam. it's PERFECT!
Butters will definitely love this game.
El juego favorito de Butters.

Hi do you know if we’re able to transfer our Apple account game to this? I hope so.
I always wanted this on Switch. So happy it’s not locked on Apple anymore.

Wait, so you mean that they crash on an island and they can't see their families, and loved ones?
Butters losing his absolute mind right now
I know, silly butters!
I watched the stream and he did.
I wonder how the board team making up the name went.
"Hey does anyone have any ideas for this name?"
"Ooh so you know south park right.."
Finally, peak has arrived to the switch
Yes it has indeed alongside mario & luigi, metroid prime 4, DK County returns HD, and many more
I am a grown adult and I am going to buy the brightly colored animal game and nobody can stop me.
I'm not stopping you as I'm getting it as well. I don't care if I'm a 22-23 year old woman. I grew up with Hello Kitty.

Agreed! We need more kawaii games!
I'm quite excited for this. Imagine if it's as good as Animal Crossing
Way more activities. A little grindy. Less customization. But it’s cute and fun. I wished animal crossing had activities to do with villagers.
Its grindy of our time or money as gacha are? @@sillyhermy
Butters is smiling right now
My 10year old sister just gotten into hello kitty too. So I'll definitely be purchasing this for her lol.
Your little sister has good taste ❤
