I have zero idea why, but my wife was interested in AC.

To be very clear, I don't even bother trying to get her to look at most my games, because I know she doesn't care. And that's honestly perfectly fine with me - I'm glad we have different hobbies that we can call our own and give us our space. But outside of WiiFit, WiiSports, and Tetris - she's never played a video game for more than five minutes (just like I don't quilt or go to hot Yoga classes).

But she kept bringing up her interest in this. So I bought her an AC SE Switch and an extra digital copy of the game, figuring it'd be a waste of money and I could always sell the Switch itself. She's now played, I kid you not, like six or seven hours in the last three days. Tonight we traveled for the first time - me to her island - and had a pretty fun time.

Anyway, no point to my story, but just really amazed to see this get their hooks into someone not normally interested in games.

How are people already getting visits from the turnip lady? I've been playing the game several hours a day and I'm waiting on stuff like the museum and shop to be built.

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!

Holy smokes :O

Aye, its basically thanks to this island that I could pay for my 198k mortgage today. Sadly now I'm saving my miles for when I can recruit villagers in islands again, but if someone is short on money, hope you get lucky and find this!

Getting those Iron Nuggets was tough.
Had to go to 2 separate islands.

The 2and island was plentiful, but there were tarantulas everywhere.

Once the shop is built, turnips are part of the package. The turnip lady comes just on sundays. Only people who started at midnight thursday/earlier due to breaking of street date, and also kept on top of nook demands, had daisy mae already.

Man what are my storage options as far as inventory (day 1)? I already expanded my pockets once, and now my pockets full 😭
It's my understanding that a house has unlimited storage?

So cool! I would have dropped most of my tools and craft new ones when I get back to my island!

how do you find/get so many tarantulas to spawn? are they the big money makers like bug island in new leaf?

So is there anything I can do to help my starting villagers along with upgrading their homes?

I'm going into day three tomorrow. My home is tier 2, the shop is finished, and tomorrow we're welcoming our first new neighbor and finishing the museum and bridge. Yet...both my starting villagers are still sleeping in tents.

Maybe I just suck but I find it very difficult to lay buildings with limited view. I'm going to have to spend like 300k fixing this mess Once I start building roads

I wonder when we can invite villagers again. :( I was bummed that they stopped showing up once I placed my plots.

Yeah, I'm gonna need info on this ASAP. I need Eloise like nothing else on this planet...Haven't run into her yet.
