## Questions & Answers

**Q: How do I skip to March 20th so I can play this?**
A: I got the same email saying it was delayed until the 24th. Even though I received an email Amazon was still saying it was going to arrive today, the 20th. I preordered in February and always liked buying on Amazon. It seems they choose this high visibility item to purposely delay to show how "Corana" sensitive they are. If they are truly overburdened they why is all the regular stuff shipping fine & on time? I canceled my Amazon order and picked it up a my local Game-Stop. Sorry Amazon, *NO* more pre-orders for you! EVER.

**Q: If I purchase this what will happen to my current horizon? Also how many new horizons am I getting?**
A: All of your current horizons will be overwritten and you will be consumed by this game. Also you will be engulfed by an unlimited supply of horizons. Every time you open this game you will be presented by a brand new horizon along with your wonderful animal friends. But due to the world being round the horizons you experience will be infinite so you will indeed be lost forever in this world of new horizons.

**Q: If I purchase this game will I be in debt a business-savvy , talking raccoon?**
A: I've mortgaged my house 3 times so far to the business tycoon racoon..lol My current mortgage is over $500,000 bells! I fish all day every day just to pay on my loan! I love it! I bought this game for my 7 yr old son,but he never gets to play it because I can't quit playing it!

**Q: Are YOU hyped?**
A: SO hyped!
