Leftover dummy item

The dummy model used by unused items in Animal Crossing.

In Animal Crossing, the shogi board is still leftover in the game data as a dummy item, unobtainable without gameplay modification or glitches. It has the unused name "shogi board" and uses the dummy model, a white triangle with red Japanese text reading ダミー (damī, dummy). Its name was also translated to other languages in the European version of Animal Crossing, with the name "tablero de shogi" in Spanish, "plateau de shogi" in French, "Shogi-Brett" in German, and "tavola shogi" in Italian.

Real-world information

Shogi, also known as Japanese chess, is a two-player strategy board game that originated in Japan. It is played on a 9×9 board, and each player has 20 pieces. The goal is to checkmate the opposing player's king piece, and each piece can be moved a different number of squares, similar to chess. More information on this topic is available at Wikipedia.
