Got a countdown going on my phone.

1 day 10 hours.

Same here mang. SAME THING. GAMESTOP! Y U OPEN SO LAAAATE?

 

[Troubled Bat]

In City Folk a little chihuahua dog thing came out of the city fountain if you threw your axe in it. You had a, like, 8% chance to get the golden/silver axe from her, and it was really rigged.
She's not back, though! Hoorayyyyyyy

Ooh. Heh. Thanks. ^^ So, then if she isn't coming back. How do you get the silver/golden axe now?

 

[cluderi]

While I'm sure most of you already own 3DS's, I am picking one up for this game. I wanted to give those in the same boat a heads up. Best Buy will be selling the special edition bundle on Sunday. Unfortunately I'm over 30 and the look of that model would get me ridiculed or be stolen by a tween girl. They're also dropping the price of the other XL colors to $175. This means that you get the game and system for $210, $10 less than the "free candy" limited edition bundle. Very excited to play my first Animal Crossing since the Gamecube.

As a 30 something guy I say rock that pop tart. It's my first real AC game as well (although I've known people go through AC obsessions so I'm familiar with the series)

 

[Elija2]

There's also this one.

The text boxes have come so far, and for the greater good. Eugh.

I just watched that for the first time and found out that villagers can visit each other. :O

Can I invite all of my favourite villagers to my house for a rad party?

 

[GiantBreadbug]

I want the Pop Tart, but I don't have the money, aaaaah.

Oh well. It wasn't meant to be.

 

[Skelter]

Nintendo World event is at 8. Anyone going? I'm thinking about fighting this weather and getting my skin!

 

[Labrys]

Spoiler

Silver tools are purchased from the Museum Gift Shop, Leif gives you the Golden Axe after buying 5 saplings.

 

[newsguy]

Not only that, but people will likely assume you're picking it up for someone else, and if they ask and it bothers you, you can say something like you're getting it for a daughter/son/niece/nephew/etc.

It's not the picking up part I care about. I'm at home with my local Best Buy game people. They're into games and we talk shop when I'm there. They know I play a little bit of everything. Playing my DS when I have downtime at work is where the insults are thrown. I don't care what people think, especially at my age as a father, people's opinions don't phase me anymore. But my buddies won't let me play the damn thing with all the yelling they'll be doing. They did it with my Vita, a DS with apples sprinkled on it may get me kicked in the balls.

Praise the Animal Crossing Gods

I was so relieved when I got both the silver and golden axe from Serena relatively early in the game

Don't remember how long it took me to get the silver axe, but it didn't take very long for me to get the gold axe (not even two months had passed since since the NA release)

I mean, if its playful thing, sure. But I wouldn't want to be around "friends" like that. That's just horrible

it's a playful thing that literally won't let me concentrate. I may rock the pop tart and keep it home lol.

[Lucent]

Won't be getting mine 'til June 12th. So you guys will have like 4 days head start on me. lol. =/ Dunno why Nintendo had to release it on Sunday.

 

[Katzii]

Won't be getting mine until June 14th because that's the release date here... So you'll have two days head start on me

Are there any special events that happen in AC on Sunday? Maybe they wanted the release to coincide with the beginning of the week, given the real-time format? I've wondered this, too.

 

[one_kill]

If I was invited to someone else's town, what else can I do apart from getting fruit and some of their designs?

Going to the Island together and playing mini games seems like a big part.

Sounds good

 

[sorijealut]

Made the last minute decision and cancelled my Amazon.

Going digital for the first time! I need it sooner to ease my wait of E3.

You can trample their flowers and chop down their trees.

Spoiler

DO NOT DO THESE

 

[Pikma]

hmmm, you guys are making me consider going digital.

 

[mxgt]

Hey everybody, remember this from freaking 2010?

My oh my how far we've come. LESS THAN A DAY REMAINS

that feel when european

 

[cluderi]

Added a bunch of people who messaged me and some people in the same timezone as me on the spreadsheet. Also got my first swapnote which made me chuckle (I really need to practice drawing a little)

 

[FoxMcCloudDS]

My gamestop is opening early on Sunday! Now I'm excited. Call your to see if yours opens early too!!

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

Any idea how long you guys think the eshop version will take to download?

 

[Salsa]

probably a fucking day for me

the eShop crawls for me, whereas every other system works fine. It's weird.

 

[Labrys]

My PS3 is like that. Every other system has a decent download speed, while it is near impossible to download anything on the PS3. It's a fat one, so that may be the issue, but it's super irritating.

Well I have downloaded both Super mario 3D land and Mario kart and they took about 30-45 mins. I know this game is bigger so it might be longer, I also have not so great internet well on Xbl everything literally take days to download if I turn my system on and off.

 

[PixieProxy]

I am sooo jealous of all you in America who are getting the game now-ish ;-;

So jealous ;-;

 

[FlynnCL]

Heh, I'll be getting the game pretty late also due to difference of release date. Within the next day most people here will have the game, which is really cool and so does not make me jealous at all.

Oh, and I had no idea this game was announced in 2010... it's only this past year where I've heard about it... that must have been a horrible wait for those who knew!

I am sooo jealous of all you in America who are getting the game now-ish ;-;

So jealous ;-;

Don't worry. It's... well, we'll get it soon...!

 

[Deified Data]

Would it be too off-topic to ask what got the old OT locked?

 

[Labrys]

Would it be too off-topic to ask what got the old OT locked?

It wasn't really an OT, more of a pre-OT.
It got locked due to... certain content that wasn't acceptable for Animal Crossing.

 

[Kokonoe]

Would it be too off-topic to ask what got the old OT locked?

I'll just send you a PM with the link.

 

[Ken]

My Gamestop called and said they'll have it on release day. Yay.

 

[Tomat]

I'll just send you a PM with the link.

I'm curious too, lol. Send it my way if you don't mind.

 

[peanutbutterlatte]

My little brother's getting this the same day as me! It'll be so fun having someone to play local multi with.

 

[Acid08]

So close. I will be at Gamestop at 11am when they open on Sunday.

 

[one_kill]

Glad you liked it

 

[Kuntz]

I reaaaaally hope the game has something to know the things you catch are already at the museum or not, I wasted so many bells offering the same bug over and over...
