Over on NooksCranny.net, critterannie has posted a list of all known Bugs and Fish, their bell value, and the location they can be caught in. Very handy!

Moving In...

Written on 3:16 PM by Unknown

Hi folks, just thought I'd introduce myself. I'm Ronnie, co-admin (with my good friend Marc) at Nooks Cranny (an Animal Crossing forum), and have been playing Animal Crossing since it's first English incarnation on the Gamecube. Was addicted to the DS version (Wild World) and am still getting to grips with the Wii version.

I'd like to invite you all to sign up at Nooks Cranny, we have over 300 members and, while the chit-chat is a bit slow at the moment, I expect it to pick up as more and more people become addicted to AC having gotten it for Christmas. We were hugely busy when Wild World was first on the DS, and it's been a few years now, but the old faces are slowly starting to return.

My AC friend code is on Nooks Cranny, in the Play Together section of the forum. Feel free to add me to your friends list and leave your friend code in the forum too (in a new post) and let others add you to their friends list too.

What I'll probably do is, like Chris said (below), link the NooksCranny.net URL to here and use Animal Crossing Observer as a launch point for the NC forum.

Feel free to drop me an email via NC (or here) and come visit!

I've found someone who is willing to take over this blog from me, Ronnie Tucker. He's one of the admins at NooksCranny.net which is an AC forum that's been about since AC:Wild World. He volunteered to take the job, so I'll be handing the blog over to him now.

So he'll be posting news here from now on, and he'll also be changing the URL to NooksCranny.net, so keep an eye out for that so that you don't lose the blog. I think that this is a great step for this blog, and it was cool to start it up, and hopefully it'll just grow and grow.

Peace out,
- Chris

Yeah, now that Animal Crossing is out, I've gotten really lazy. I mean, I have other websites that I run, plus I'm doing a lot of college stuff right now. I just don't feel like updating this website anymore. So I'm calling it quits for Animal Crossing Observer. That's it, I'm not going to be updating anymore.

However, if you would like to become the webmaster of this site, then send me an email to africansk8er@gmail.com and I might just give you the website. Like Christmas. But only if you can provide me some evidence of your work running a blog. So email me if you want the site.

As for now, good bye!



Nintendo Power City Folk Review

Written on 2:11 PM by Chris

I know, I know, I said I would make a giant post of all the City Folk reviews during this weekend. Well, I got busy, what can I say. With all the college stuff and duties on other websites, I got my hands full. But I have some time off next week, so you should expect the giant review post then. In the meantime, here's a scan of Nintendo Power's City Folk review.

Good and Bad of Animal Crossing City Folk

Here's a really cool list of some of the extra stuff that is found in this latest version of Animal Crossing.

Brewster eventually offers up additional storage. Drink his coffee and earn this reward. It sounds like it’s only storage for one particular type of item, but we AC horders will take whatever storage space we can get.

7 Things You Never Knew About Your Animal Crossing Town

Written on 4:28 PM by Chris

Animal Crossing - the most harmless series ever created. Or so you thought...

Animal Crossing invites you into the quiet, tranquil life of a quaint little village, complete with it's own shop, tailors, museum and town hall. The only sounds to diturb you are the buzz of the bees and the trickle of the local river.

But look again - peel back this thin sharade and you'll find a veritable den of thieves, schemes and all-round nasty fellows...

Iwata Asks: Animal Crossing

Written on 4:22 PM by Chris

Nintendo has an awesome interview with some of the developers of City Folk on their website, and the interviewer is none other than Iwata. It's a great read, so read more here.

Iwata:
I think that's because NOA (Nintendo of America) were well aware that the sheer volume of text in Animal Crossing meant it was going to be no ordinary title. (laughs) So they needed to make sure they were prepared by getting the localization structures established well ahead of time. Okay, let's go back to the start of the project. With the team decided and work set to start on the Wii version, did you find there were aspects of the DS version which you felt obliged to carry over, or which somehow acted as obstacles?

Nogami:
Naturally, there were issues like that. But we decided to put the previous title out of our minds for the time being, and start work on the next one afresh. After all, Animal Crossing was originally a title that you could enjoy fully even when playing the game on your own.
