Catching way too many Dorados in the morning made me incredibly rich. Second day and I have 99k bells. Damn!Wow just collecting junk off the beach netted me over 1000 bells, love this game.
Is there a lust if fish and bugs available this month?
So my 3DS screwed me up. The battery wasnt making a good connection with the contacts and it reset my system last night while playing. Not a huge deal except that it reset my time as well...and I didnt realize this until Isabelle was all shocked to see me. I promptly quit and put the time back but the game already made note of this and I was screwed.
-A years worth of weeds in my town.
-Villagers think I abandoned them for a year.
-Stores under renovations.
-Roaches in my house.
-Hair is a mess but I dont have the hairdresser yet.
It hurts, gaf! Hurts so much!
I almost wiped the town completely but I couldnt say goodbye to my villagers
Theyre all easy fixes too but now I feel like I gamed the system by time travelling. I NEVER do this in Animal Crossing and now my game is permanently tainted with it.
That's actually really fascinating. It's like you went Rip Van Winkle.
I've never played an Animal Crossing before but, damn, this is addictive! It'l only my first day but I've put a down payment on my house. Hope I'll be able to grab a bug net tomorrow and then start those renovations. All my friends only seem to have Cherries though...Any way of getting the other fruits?

I'm from the UK and have no idea what I'm doing, pretty much my first Animal Crossing; I'm just fishing a lot at the moment, and I'll have a house tomorrow! The online stuff might be fun, and I promise not to trample on anyone's flowers.
When people add you, do you get a notification to accept or?
What's the deal with fruit? I seem to only have cherries. And my flowers are dying, will the villagers water them? They seem to have watering cans.

Does anyone have an extra Sling Shot, Axe, or Wet Suit? I'll pay good money...

Dont run over your flowers or they withe. Villagers sometimes water flowers, but you need to take care of that when you got the can.
Every village has one native fruit, you'll need to trade the other fruits with online players.

Got a classic Mario coin from my fortune cookie this morning! It's actually surprisingly huge, so when I get a bigger house I'll probably display it more prominently.
My only gripe so far is that I feel like a bunch of features are locked off until I get my house, but Nook's Homes has been closed the entire time I have the game so I can't even put down my first payment.
Curse you, Nook! Curse you and your immoral housing racket. Harmonia shall rise again!

LOL! You guys arent helping!!
I got it all nicely cleaned up. and the villagers seem to be over it already. Theyre a resilient bunch!
Timmy and Tommys upgraded. And my house renovations are completed so I guess theres a plus side to this.

Can anyone sell me on this game?
I've only played the DS version but only for an hour or so. It didn't really grow on me.
My friend plays it all the time but I just don't see the point. It just seems to me that you meander around the town doing oddjobs so you can get bells so you can buy more stuff so you can get more bells so you can buy new clothes so you can wear a new hat whilst getting more bells to buy a bigger bed.
It just seems somewhat pointless...

It's a pretty simply game where you live in a tiny village. You strive to do what you want to do in this limited environment [create a great house, decorate your town, be an amazing turnip trader etc], but it's more about experiencing the world rather than influencing it. If your looking for a game with clear objectives and an end date, then you need to look else where. The 30th day in Animal crossing is similar to the 300th day.
Finally, someone else sees this Nook bastard for what he is.
House isn't going to be built until the morning. I'm guessing he's high again.

That's exactly what you're in for. Unfortunately if you don't see the appeal there's not too much more to the game. Fortunately you might try your hand at it and realize all this seemingly mundane activity is actually quite fun.

I bumped into Teddy this morning, a few min after booting the game, and he suggested we jog to my house. So we did.
I like this game, I like this game very much.

how do you get all that awesome furniture i see in the screenshots posted here?
my house looks like shit and retails and nooklings dont offer anything but ugly accessories
like i saw an L shaped sectional sofa i want and flat screen tv, etc
do i have to wait longer? someone said they dont upgrade the store until after you spent 8000?! thats BS because why waste a ton of bells cluttering your inventory/storage with stuff you dont want just to get the good stuff?
there should be an order magazine on the counter where you can buy anything in the game and have it delivered to store
is there some website that atleast shows all possible furniture to buy so i know what i can look out for?
thanks

1. Shaking the trees gives you two items each day. Talking to villagers often makes them give or trade you items.
2. The store cant be upgraded if they dont have money to do so, makes sense, eh?
3. You can order stuff you already found/bought once.
4. There are 1200 furniture items, so I dont think it would help you much to look at a page. Just check Nook each day and get random items to see whatever you might like and what not. Its very satisfying to gradually work on your perfect appartment.
This is stuff ONLY from the first day of playing the game:
Not a big room yet, but if you do some leg work, you'll find some nice items. (I love my shogi board).

You can get furniture by shaking trees!? WHAT?! All I've found is money!
Also, I want that katana.
Yep, gotta shake all the trees. Easy to miss a few I guess. And that Katana wasnt cheap.. *looks at Nook, the greedy bastard*

Also, try and buy everything that the store has every day. Even the shovels. Take the things you don't want and mail them to villagers. I've gotten something new in return every time. And its a great way to upgrade your stores(s) faster.
I got a world map to hang on my wall after I answered his question correctly.
I planted my one bamboo shoot somewhere I didn't think anyone would move in but then someone immediately did. Thankfully his house was slightly north and to the east of the bamboo so it survived.

Note to self: tree genocide on lunch break today. Actually brought my 3DS downtown with me (which I never do) solely because of AC.
I found Gulliver this morning too. He basically made me answer a trivia question about the Netherlands and then said he'd send me a present. Hopefully it's not a pair of wooden shoes!
...on second thought, hopefully it is. I want clogs.

You know what would have been nice? If you got the choice to decide where new villagers could place their houses. You are the mayor, after all.

I really wish we could make pro designs for pants. I'm sick of wearing just what the game deigns to provide.
Just like the mayor of your town decided where you are allowed to live, right? ;p

I'm totally bro'ing my guy out right now, down to the yolo/swag shirt that says "Bro, do u even lift?" And now one of my townspeople wants to call me "Muscles", so it's pretty great.

That's pretty awesome. I didn't even know you could hook up with random folks until yesterday. I thought the island just had some mini-games. Very glad to hear the series is finally evolving in that direction.
I just unlocked the island yesterday and today will be my first visit there.
Was the answer Kenya? Because then it makes sense and I prolly get a world map too
Nope. Vietnam. Pho was one of the clues.

Added you both. If you guys open up your gates, I can bring fishing rods as gifts. No need to trade.
(Sorry for the late reply. Was on the island with a couple of GAFers.)

I found a cardboard box in a tree yesterday, as you can imagine I was ecstatic. I traded a grasshopper for a sword with a villager too, looks a little different from the one in the picture above though from memory.
Nope. Vietnam. Pho was one of the clues.
I'm glad I didn't got that question, had to Google what it was :lol
