A new hashtag called “#CompraAnimalCrossingDigital”, or “#BuyAnimalCrossingDigital”, has started going viral in Spain.

The hashtag was launched by a group of Animal Crossing fans concerned by the coronavirus outbreak in Spain. These fans are trying to convince others to purchase Animal Crossing: New Horizons digitally instead of physically, so that those working in the postal service will not increase the chance of catching the coronavirus during this time, and fans of the series could stay at home and protect themselves.

Here are some of the tweets (machine translation):

Soy partidaria de tener los juegos en físico porque tener la caja me hace mucha ilusión, y más si es de AC que es mi saga favorita, pero esto es lo correcto. No quiero exponer a repartidores a la pandemia haciéndoles traer el juego a mi casa.#CompraAnimalCrossingDigital 🧡 pic.twitter.com/s5rsWOIHaw — Elesky ✨ (@Elesky25) March 15, 2020

“I am in favor of having the games in physical because having the box makes me very excited, especially if it is from AC, which is my favorite saga, but this is the right thing to do. I don’t want to expose delivery people to the pandemic by having them bring the game into my home.“

Me uno a la iniciativa #CompraAnimalCrossingDigital 🧡 soy el primero que no le gusta comprar juegos físicos en digital, pero me quiero solidarizar primero con mis tíos ya que vivo con ellos y son mayores. Y luego con los repartidores que ellos siguen trabajando la mayoría 🙁 pic.twitter.com/8KhvEDyZ2b — SopaDeToad (@sopadetoad) March 15, 2020

“I join the initiative #CompraAnimalCrossingDigital I am the first who does not like to buy physical games online, but I want to show solidarity with my uncles first since I live with them and they are older. And then with the dealers that they continue to work most :(“

Compra en digital por los repartidores, pero compra a vendedores oficiales, si un intermediario vende más barato, no es un regalo para ti, seamos responsables con lo poco que podemos hacer como consumidores, pensemos en los desarrolladores

“Buy digitally by dealers, but buy from official sellers, if an intermediary sells cheaper, it is not a gift for you, let’s be responsible with what little we can do as consumers, let’s think about the developers #CompraAnimalCrossingDigital“
