Audrey, 88, is the protagonist of a new video in which she appears with her Nintendo Switch and her brand-new video game.
A few months ago, a 95-year-old woman received a new Game Boy from Nintendo after her console broke. He had been playing Tetris for decades every day. Shirley Curry, 84, rose to fame as the grandmother of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, having a YouTube channel dedicated to her games, and has even been invited to the Bethesda offices. Audrey, on the other hand, is an 88-year-old woman who has played Animal Crossing: New Leaf for more than 3,500 hours. Almost nothing! Now, you have had the opportunity to access Animal Crossing: New Horizons, the new exclusive installment for Nintendo Switch.
Everything seems to indicate that one of the characters in the game has been named in honor of Audrey, although the old woman admits in a video published by her grandson Hubans that she does not know if that is so. The truth is that the mayor of his city in New Leaf was called Audie. Eurogamer has chatted with Hubans and said that she seemed very happy, although somewhat confused because she does not understand why they decided that the character is a wolf.
"I have told him that it is perhaps a Goldilock reference, in which the grandmother is actually a wolf, but I have the impression that it is more a decision to locate the employees of Nintendo America, who wanted to wink at the grandmother "
A gift from her grandson and fans
The old woman has received her Nintendo Switch special edition Animal Crossing: New Horizons thanks to her grandson and the followers, who have put money to give the woman with this fantastic gift. Audrey appears taking her first steps in the new video game. When he is going to name his character, he chooses Audie, but then he comments that he cannot use that name because there is already another character called that. However, Hubans reminds him that there can always be two inhabitants with the same name.
Although Audrey will continue to play New Leaf as she needs to continue caring for her plants, she will now have new tasks ahead of her. Animal Crossing: New Horizons has been available on Nintendo Switch since March 20.
