Since the European release of Animal Crossing: New Leaf on 14th June 2013, several downloadable or distributed items were available for players in Europe. A few of these items were eventually released in North America, but many remain Europe only or already existing items. They were available either by a monthly download at the post office, or by distribution via Pete from Nintendo.
