The Animal Crossing Thread

BreakABone · 09-17-2002, 08:47 PM

Well, I guess I'm the first person on GT with the domestic version of Animal Crossing or the first person able to draw himself away from the game to make a thread about it.

Anyhow, the game is rather cool, it's just well special in some way. It's not that you are driven by plot or even action in this game. I guess it's the whole sense of customization in the game and whatnot. Not to much the extras such as the NES games that come on the Memory Card.

Well, anyone else get it?

Name: Danny
Town: Flushing (I find it funny that the Cat would actually want to vacation here.)
Fruit: Orange

Only Briefly played it. Was mean to the cat on the train. Spent 40 min thinking up a name for the town only to go with my original choice which is where I actually live. My eyes have little pupils in the middle of the eye. (Heard the responses to the questions the cat asks reflects the eye design.) Picked the Northeast house with the metal floor and wooden walls. Spent a long time trying to decide which house to pick too. Planted a few trees and flowers for Mr. Nook around Nook's Cranny and then met two residents and the mayor of the town.

on a scale of 1 to 10, wut would you give it so far dan?

DamnRaccoons · 09-18-2002, 09:38 PM

Wow this game is great.

Name: ~VIN~
Town: Funk Mo
Fruit: Cherry

I hate throwing my stuff out so I'm trying to collect everything. For some reason I haven't gotten a letter from the museum and I'm starting to have a very large collection of fossils.

My guy doesn't look messed up, which is pretty good. Umm.. oh ya, I made my first payment.
IMPORTANT TIP:

When on the train and the cat asks you how much money you have, tell him you have a lot and you'll start off with a lot.
I had to learn this the hard way.

I give this game a 10 because I think this is everything I've been waiting for in a game plus I can't stop thinking about it.

And you are?

Yesterday was the first time I read a preview of the game, and just one paragraph got me excited!

Man this can be so cool!!!

How big is the world BTW? Big enough to keep busy?

The town's not that big. Got the locations memorized and everything. But more animals will move in and whatnot.

Visited the island today...which I named Baka Island. Brought back a bunch of coconuts and sold them for a nice price. Put up a flag there of a texture I made.

The texture of the flag is the one I'm currently wearing. A mushroom from Mario that's orange and the shirt and hat itself is blue.

DamnRaccoons · 09-19-2002, 10:48 PM

If you don't visit other towns, then where do the other villagers move and how can you come into contact with them after they do?

09-20-2002, 05:51 AM

Guess if they leave with no other memory card town to go to then they might still be in the game's data to receive letters but just not live in your town.

Started a new town this morning. A lot better than before. More kinds of animals closer together makes for more convient and interesting tasks. Like the new overall design of the town too. Only thing is everyone loves to get clothes and no furniture. The strange thing is the only one I miss from my old town is the mean yellow rabbit Gaston. Fun having him insult me. Oh well.

Name: Danny
Town: Viridian (Gonna name the island Whirl Island later)
Fruit: Orange

Wanna trade fruits VIN?

DamnRaccoons · 09-20-2002, 05:04 PM

Sure, but I need some pears from somewhere because one of my villagers is asking for one.

But I can't give you the code right now because I ran out of cherries. They should be ready soon because I've been waiting three days now.
