Topic: Who's excited for Animal Crossing: New Leaf

[Cptroboto]

I was able to grab this yesterday (two days early) and have not put it down. The NWR review was spot on. I bought the cartrige since the store I stumbled upon was already selling them, but i would recommend the download. This is not leaving the sysytem! Please add me when you pick it up and come visit my town; the gate will be open.  Cptroboto 4897-6497-8151

Quick question to all my fellow AC fanatics.  I'm debating if I should watch the Animal Crossing movie before the game comes out to really take my excitement up a notch lol, but, is the movie any good/ worth watching?  Would watching it ruin my nostalgia for AC or will it compliment it?  I say this because in the game, the characters have their strange yet pleasant animal speak but in the anime they will have an actual voice.  Depending on how they come across, it might ruin how I've always looked at these characters.  So what say you, is the movie a go for me?

I don't know, man. Do what you will, but I watched the first 10 minutes of the movie and nearly fell asleep. So, there's that.

That sounds like a great way to hype yourself up for more Animal Crossing! It's a cute kids movie, so really it depends on your tolerance for that kind of show, and "slice of life" series. It is a bit slow paced, but there are so many character and villager cameos that it's still fun. Youre right that it is a bit weird hearing the characters speak in normal voices (and then KK's singing...) but it wasn't enough to ruin any of it for me. It's been quite a while since I've seen it, but I think the voices and behaviours stayed true to the villager's game personas (ie sporty, cute, grumpy... Apollo is a grumpy loner, Rosie is cute and nice, etc).

I'd say that since you're curious enough to ask about watching it, you should just go give it a try! You'll never know otherwise...

Just downloaded the game tonight!  So sad it was so late and I couldn't do much besides just setting up my village and getting welcomed into it.   

My native fruit is Oranges, in case anyone wants to do some underground shady fruit trading!

My 3DS friend code is 2406-5138-0670 if anyone wants to add me, just pm me and let me know and I will add you back.   Anyone is welcome to come to my town when it's open to poke around or take a few oranges if they want.  (Although I might ask not to take them all, so others can have them too.  Me included.)

I went to the Nintendo World Store event and saw literally hundreds of Animal Crossing fans. The line was as long as the Mario Galaxy event they had a few years out, but everyone was really surprised about the turn out. THey had several activities to do that got you New Leaf buttons. I got two sets and even an extra KK Slider button. I bought the XL Pop-Tart Bundle and did a system transfer which deleted my original save, but I already was back up to speed by this morning. I visited DrewMG's town and scored some new fruit for my town.
This is the game I've been waiting for and the very reason I was excited for the 3DS. I think a lot of people are going to end up playing this and really enjoying it. Add me to visit my town: 1762 2808 0367 I have added everyone who posted in this thread!

[TheFleece]

If you hold the L or R buttons while in the photobooth you will get a black and white pic instead of a color one.

neat, yeah im done downloading, i'll put my FC on my sig

[TheFleece]

I had my gate open for a while and got a few visitors, thanks for coming through! We all just got booted out and I reopened if you wanted to finish anything up here.

Also I added all visitors to my best friend's list so we could get a nice network of Turnip Prices going on amongst ourselves. I figure like this- Once a day I'll tell you my town's buying price and you can reply with your town's prices and whether you want to come and sell at my town.

[NWR_insanolord]

I think I'll make a Turnip Prices thread here so we can all benefit.

[Mannypon]

Finally got to put in time with this game.  Feels damn good, DAMN good, to be back in the AC fold again lol.  But I'm already feeling the slow burn of AC.  I'm dieing to play it right now yet there is nothing for me to do till morning when things open up again.  FML lol, its like my AC character is an insomniac lol. 
 
Anywhere, I've never done this online AC thing but here goes lol.  Here is my friend code.  I'll be sure to add you guys too. 
My friend code is : 3265-5069-1234
 
UPDATE:  Alright, I've gone and added I believe everyone on this page, giving you all a heads up lol.  Back to roaming around my village like a midnight stalker lol. 

[NWR_insanolord]

Does anyone have a spare ax I could take off your hands? I'm willing to pay up to several times what it's worth at the store.

[NWR_DrewMG]

Three weeks in, my store has not ever sold me an axe.

[TheFleece]

I woke up early and found a sea gull passed out on the beach, he might have been hung over. I got my first house upgrade and I'm ready for the next one.
I had a great time visiting everyone's towns yesterday. I even got to check out DJ KK routine which was really fun. I've been taking a lot of screen shots, but I noticed that when I view them in the Camera App the images don't seem so crisp.

I think I'll make a Turnip Prices thread here so we can all benefit.

That would be Awesome.

Really? That kind of sucks, everyone really seems hard up for tools, myself included. It seems like the game is set on pacing how and when you unlock or get certain things.

[TheFleece]

My town is selling the same tools as yesterday, a Shovel and Net. If anyone needs them they can have them. I am in serious need of a Fishing Rod if anyone comes across one.

[NWR_insanolord]

My tools are the same as yesterday too, shovel and fishing rod. I paid off my down payment on my house, and have already filled up a good chunk of my museum.

I would pay you the price of the rod and extra if you could let me have it. I can't really come now for it, but I will be around tonight.

[NWR_insanolord]

Sure, I already got one yesterday so I don't need it.

EDIT: I went ahead and bought it so it'll be available even if you can't get here before the shop closes.

[UncleBob]

A) How do you turn on StreetPass
B) I also really need an axe.  15,000 bells for one today.

[TJ Spyke]

A) How do you turn on StreetPass

According to the games digital manual:

Activating Street Pass
You must register at the Happy Home Showcase located on Main Street to begin using StreetPass.

[NWR_insanolord]

If UncleBob's offering 15,000 for an axe I'll give 20,000.
