I saw a youtube video on how to make your own fake amiibo cards for Animal Crossing (as well as anything else that uses amiibo cards) and I'm not sure how I feel about it. On one hand, I would love to be able to bring my villagers I was so attached to in New Leaf here (calling Shep). And on the other hand that just... really feels way too much like cheating to me and I'm not sure I could bring myself to do it.

	And they're posting that they've done it on a public forum where anyone can see it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You mean the video? Or the people making them to sell? Because from what I've seen, the people selling them aren't shy at all about that being what they're doing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Some of these are commiting double copywrite, using clearly stolen fan art instead of Nintendo's official art. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	They'll probably argue that they created it if called out on it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It wouldn't be the first time people monetized fanwork that wasn't their own, sadly. (Reply to this) (Parent)
