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

Thanks for the apples, Fleece!

there are ways to tell if redds paintings are real or fake now...

I've been burned by Redd three times already- the first two were directly from him selling me bogus art and then a townie sold me a painting that turned out to be fake. I wish I knew how to tell if his stuff was real or not before those times, but a townie won't show it to you- it's just a leaf symbol and there's no way to tell. Combine that with the fact that turnip prices change at noon has me flipping out in minor ways. I hit the townie with my net a few times.

Katie is SO adorable! I had someone bring her to my town, but I haven't seen her back in Scarboro. I did find a lost item on the ground, and had to return it to a villager. And in more exciting news, I finally found Gulliver! He was heading to France.

I've had the island for a few days now - you guys are right that it is the easiest way to make money. I was able to pay off my bridge the next day. Now I'm debating on upgrading my house or building more things in town.

I've also had the new shop next to the Able Sisters' for a few days now, but I haven't bought anything. My Nook's hasn't upgraded yet, though. There just hasn't been that much cool furniture I'd want yet, but I might just start buying whatever they have so that they will upgrade. Have many people had their shop expanded?

The in-game weather has been matching my real local weather almost every day. So weird!

@Mannypon - was that painting you bought at Redd's back in my town a real or fake? My statue was a fake I haven't seen Redd again.

@Fleece nice AC flickr! I have not been taking pictures at all...

I've added everyone who has posted their FC. See yas at AC!

My shop is closed for expansion and another shop is being built. It's been raining for most of the week which is mirroring my real life in a few ways, that's a feature that goes way back with the series. Thanks for checking out the pics, I think I'll being doing a weekly photo dump because I'm always taking pics in the game.

Thanks for the apples, Fleece! 

You're welcome, Phil! It took a while but I got them to you. You're town is amazing. I always enjoy seeing towns where players put in a great effort to make it unique. Thanks for the Durian!

[TheFleece]

Haha, Pokepal... I honestly had no clue she came from you. You must have brought her over one night when I left the game running online and in sleep mode. What other items can one get from her? I thought it was just the "Katie's pic" item...

I got a Digital-Photo Frame from her.

Is everybody getting tons of rain this week?

[pokepal148]

my golden fruit operation is basically shutting down... i may collect the last few harvests but i won't be replanting them when the trees die...

the island is simply much more efficient then perfect fruit.

either way im basically destroying the loan at this point. i have 300k left on the current expansion and two more at 598k

Same here! I honestly can't remember what a sunny day looks like by now...

Anybody got a spare fishing rod?

[TheFleece]

I've got my first upstairs room today and the T&T Mart will open today- it closes at 5AM! Oh and it's the first day of Summer so be sure to work on your tan!

Anybody got a spare fishing rod?

I have some extra tools if anyone is in need. I have some shovels, an extra watering can and a rod- I can hold on to it for you. You can come stop by this morning before 11 if you have time or sometime over the weekend, maybe tomorrow night or Sunday.

Do I have to do anything to get Nook's to sell me an axe? My town is overrun with trees.

nook doesn't sell axes, the garden center guy does

Ah! Thanks.
 
I guess the Garden Centre is something you unlock?

Add a few of you to my friends list. Just hope that your user name on this site are the same as what is on the NN. BTW, i can only enter codes whil I'm at a NZ location, since I have no internet at my place.

I just got back from the Nintendo World Store Animal Crossing event and Reggie showed up, it was pretty cool! He wasn't doing Street Pass, but he was sending his game info out. It was a cool event, but I didn't win. I got a mini poster though!

3. Chicago Blackhawks - Patrick Kane
4. Boston Bruins - Bobby Orr
5. Montreal Canadiens - Rocket Richard

12. Los Angeles Kings - Dustin Brown

I'm working on a Gretzky Oilers Jersey and was thinking of doing a sharks or hurricanes jersey next, I'm open to requests though.

And thank you so much to Racht and whoever else came into my town and planted SO MANY FRUIT TREES! I was pretty pumped today when I harvested all this fruit I had never seen before.

[blackfootsteps]

I've got a spare (Nintendo Item)Yoshi Egg if anyone wants one!

[TheFleece]

I can't believe that yesterday in my town it was sunny all day long and that today it went back to rain again. This is almost depressing! At least the shoe store opens up in my town today.

[SytYoshi]

Hello everyone!  I'm about a week into New Leaf.  I currently have peaches, cherries, persimmons, and most of the resort fruits.  Feel free to drop by.  My friend code is 3797-6427-4137

Hah, no prob. I did do a few to help you out, but someone else must have really come through to help you out.

If it's not too much of a burden, think you could do an away Predators jersey? Mike Fisher #12.

Well, my final bridge has been funded and construction should complete tomorrow. I really felt like I needed to get those things built, because the layout of my village was super frustrating to navigate because of how the river intersected it.

I'm not sure if there are quicker ways to make bells, but what I did was implement the Rich Town ordinance and then spent the following couple of days picking fruit from the Island and selling it at Re-Tail (luckily they were paying high for Lemons and I found loads of them while on the Hide 'n' Seek tour).
 
With my bridges built though I'm not quite sure what I want to do next. 

[TheFleece]

I was having the same trouble and my final bridge was completed today. I don't know how much Bells you were making from island fruit, Pixelated, but I almost made 100,000 Bells from catching island bugs at night. I plan to keep doing that to pay off my house. I was able to get the construction for Club LOL going, but I don't know how long it will take.

I was probably making around 60,000 per trip. I'll have to try catching bugs instead. It sounds much more lucrative. Were you just catching them in the rental area, or were you going on a tour to catch them?

I was catching them in the rental area and filling the basket up to two pages. In two trips I made 80,000 Bells. I was also catching any large fish- basically anything that was shark looking, but there are many large beetles that go for high prices in the town so that was what I focused on.

Yep! I'll keep it for you!
