The Nintendo bench is a furniture item in Doubutsu no Mori+, Animal Crossing, and Doubutsu no Mori e+. The player can sit on this item.

The Nintendo bench can be obtained after providing an officially released secret code, which for Doubutsu no Mori+ was published on the Nintendo website[1] and for Animal Crossing in issue 100 (June 2003) of Tips and Tricks magazine.[2]

In Doubutsu no Mori e+, the Nintendo bench never had a code released, making it unobtainable by official means. If the player carried over their data from Doubutsu no Mori+, it appears in the catalog but is not for sale. Using the secret code from Doubutsu no Mori+ will result in either the shop sign, decorative plate, or Tom Nook's autograph card.

The item does not have any color for the purpose of fêng shui.

No villagers have this item in their home.
