The washing machine is easily my favorite piece of furniture so far. It sounds amazing with headphones on, the way it wiggles slightly in place... why is this fascinating me so much lol.

I'm really an animal crossing newb, but how are people so far along on day 3? I'm struggling.
Anyone who started at midnight on release is technically on Day 4 because the game considers a new day to start at 5 or 6am. Alternatively, there are a lot of people who time travel by changing their system clock so they've advanced past the normal progression the average player would have right now.

I realized playing this game with a minimal reference to guides is really enjoyable. You discover something new everyday.

I have friends who try to power through their game on the first few days (sharing tips on time travel), getting a million bells, massively grinding like an MMO etc... but I guess it's different for everyone.

Does anyone know if bamboo still behaves like digital kudzu (the whole invasion of your town if you don't dig up/uproot sprouts every day) or did they tone it down a notch? I had a bamboo town in ACNL but it was... so much work

Slowly getting the development together. Just like with NL, I'm struggling to juggle between wanting to progress mortgage and buying more inclines and bridges asap. I'm so... so tired of the ladder and pole.

Well looks like I'm gonna start over and delete 3 days worth of progress as my daughter was the first to join the island with her account and I played later becomming the second resident. I guess whoever starts first gets all the main island tasks and customization of the island. While accounts that join later get a gimped experience. Honestly why would they restrict you to 1 island per switch then gimp the other accounts that join.

I really like the furniture customizing, makes it really easy to make my house look how I want it to.

The only fruit I need now are oranges and cherries. Just got to wait for the rest of my non-native fruit trees to grow.

Does the sell price stay the same for non-native fruit even once you've planted them on your island? I planted a bunch of cherry trees today thinking it would make me good money in the future but now I'm wondering.

I'm playing at my own slow pace so far:) Though I did just look up tips on those damn iron nuggets. I have 5 so far and I'm not quite that patient... waiting for the museum to open tomorrow is bad enough.

When I opened the gates, not quite knowing what I was doing, I did have one friend join from my friends list. That was neat. I then went and visited their island, which was waaaay more customized than mine was. Later on I realized they dropped a popcorn machine on my island. Now I need to send them a gift back...

I have every fruit except one.

Oranges (native), Peaches, Apples, Pears, Cherries, and Coconuts.

I don't know what this last fruit is but I hope to find it eventually.

If I were to visit someone's island in a different time zone, could I sell at their Nook's Cranny shop?

So what's generally seen as the fastest way to get bells?

And are most of you playing docked or portable?

Midgar, With Love
I love my house, I love its location, I love every single tree on my island and refuse to chop any down, I love my waterfall, I love my Moai statue which I placed at the far northeast corner of the island, I love my bonfire at a peninsula, I love my lovely neighbors, I love everybody who comes and visits Queen Tiki Island, I love Wilbur, I love all the fruit, I love you.

This is my first Animal Crossing experience and it's excellent!

I love animal crossing but I'm starting to wish there was more than just the bugs, fish, fossils that are in every game. I would love to see something like bird watching where you build different habitats or shelters for different birds and then take their picture. Just something in addition to what's always been there from a naturalist/collection side.

Ya tbh, I was hoping for a new category since I think we've had the current ones since the start. It was time to add something new. But we actually lost paintings...

I know this a bit off topic, but what's the best app/service/utility to keep track of when something is in stock again? I've never played an Animal Crossing before and wish I had jumped on that bundle when it was available. The game looks like something I'd enjoy and I've been wanting a Switch for a while now.

So not sure if anyone else has experienced this, but I hit the jackpot of mystery islands today when farming for iron nuggets.

First I saw an island full of rocks, but quickly found a tarantula. I caught it before noticing there was another tarantula just chilling there. Got bit by that one, so I ran back, and now there were 3 tarantulas!

Basically, this island had infinitely spawning tarantulas. So by the time I left...

Fully stocked on iron, and as many tarantulas as I could carry lol. I knew they'd be worth a lot, but was still surprised when I looked up their value. 8K each.

Pretty solid haul for only about a half hours worth of work!

Will we always need to craft all the steps to make certain things, like making the wooden block toys for other wooden stuff, or is there a shortcut? Also, will there eventually be able to craft multiples of something at once?
