COUGH COUGH one island per switch COUGH COUGH

Biggest gripe with New Leaf was having no control on where new villagers built their house. Can't count how many gardens and trees got bulldozed when someone moved in

The worst part of New Leaf is relying on RNG with your villagers to unlock Publics Works Projects

As a little kid one time my game froze on Wild World and I cried because I knew Ressetti would come

Not so honorable mentions : ACNH taking what feels like 69 billion years to load, being forced to take duplicate DIY/cooking recipes from villagers, GOLDEN TOOLS BREAKING, the inability to bulk buy Nook Miles tickets or whatever you want, Kapp'n not letting you go on mystery islands more than once a day, the Dodo Airlines dialogue when hunting for villagers.

rapidly pressing through sooooo many unnecessary dialogue trees to do ANYTHING is so frustrating. #1 feature I wish we had was the ability to build more npc shops instead of having them separate on harvs island

There are some other shortcomings with ACNH. 1. Crafting one item at a time is SO frustrating, especially when mass crafting bait, medicine, etc. 2. Friends not being able to help terraform or move things on your island. There should be separate levels of permission to your island: you can make someone a visitor, where they can’t interact with anything on your island except for picking up and dropping loose items that weren’t originally placed before they got there, or they can be a member, where they can move items, etc, or they can be an operator, where as long as they have unlocked the terraform option on their own world, they can terraform with you.

I think my biggest issue with ACNH is you can't terraform the mouths of the rivers so you can't put them where you want and you can't move the plaza. So if you don't like your options in the beginning, you have to keep resetting until you get something you liked.

The worst part about New Horizons, to me, is the complete missed opportunity to have been able to terraform together, and allow friends to move things to speed up projects.

It was the terraforming / decorating that did me in for ac:nh. I still play it but I don't do much in terms of decorating or terraforming these days. There was so much focus on just that alone and I understand allowing that freedom to do whatever you want to your island but man, I missed the very slow, stress free grind of New Leaf. I hope whatever happens with the future of the series, they get a better balance between the two.

City folk is my favorite ac game! Its so nostalgic but also has so much character lore,random content,and the city was always fealt special to visit.the city theme song is so nostalgic and was so happy to see the song animal city in nh.the cover art for that album is so precious!i literally have it hanging up on my wall lol

my least favorite part is when in acnh you have to gather materials for the houses and craft for them. its so stressful

when i played wild world as a kid my mom would sometimes play ONLY to pull the many many weeds in my town, the occasional surprise to a weed-free town was so nice

Resetti reminds me of that one time that I was trying to swat a wasp dead and it came after me and the 3DS slid off the arm of the recliner and reset my game and then I incurred the wrath of resetti who didn't believe me that the console fell while trying to swat a wasp that was trying to come after me. Still, resetti on the gamecube version was on a whole new level though. Like I'm sure gamecube resetti had little kids legit terrified. The disconnect during multiplayer in new horizons, there was one time that really haunted me back in 2020 or 2021, I had 8 people over and someone's power went out and disconnected them and reset everything and we all came out of the airport confused to find that Celeste (who people were over to get recipes from) had just... disappeared, I literally had everyone leave, shut my gates, find her and then reopen with warp pipes leading to her in addition to checking the items that people left on the plaza.

I think crafting is fine, I don’t see the issue. I do think that you should be able to craft in bulk

7:40 I hate the breakable tools.

I will probably never understand why so many people are nostalgic for Wild World. I started with the original and played it excessively for 2 years and when WW came out I remember being bored so fast. I bought it again before the WiiU Shop shut down but got bored after a month. Anyway, I agree that City Folk deserves way more love. Personally, I think that it's a wonderful game, the biggest issue I had next to being worried about grass deterioration was the motion controls itself. Those are the reason I barely go back 😅

The worst part of acnh for me is villager hunting- the whole return to the airport and go through the dialogue again is so annoying

I LOVED Resetti! Especially in wild world. Lyle as well when he tried to sell u the insurance. The town felt more alive with them :(

I once de-weeded my town, it took 5 hours 🥲

My sister threw my DS against a chair when I was about 8 or 9. The top half tore completely off. That was probably my worst Animal Crossing experience.

You must do 100 days in acnh , while 365 days in acnl

I would always leave my DS in the sleep mode without saving or whatever it's called (Where it just turns the screen off) and I wouldn't save but it would die while in the sleep mode Then I wasn't even scared of Mr. Resetis behavior, I was just scared of the way he would pop out the ground, so I would start the game and cover my eyes and ears till I was sure that he was already out of the ground.

We had a full town of four on City Folk back in the day on the family Wii, and the grass situation was so bad that it was difficult to make snowmen in the Winter.

When I was a kid I got grounded off my DS and forced my parents to log in to Wild World for me to pick the weeds until I got it back. Shoutout to them fr. The OGs will never forget the pain of picking a town full of weeds 🤝🏼

I still remember back in the days in Wild World.. people did SELL services like removing the weeds from your town for you for bells. It was so annoying, that it created jobs for kids who then were ripping out weeds from random town for bells as payment lol. It was so wild back in the days seeing this.

What I don't like in NL: Grass deterioration. I have so many ugly patches in my town. I never run, hardly even walk, I actually make my character sneak in order to lessen the impact... The update I'm dying for the most, is for NL, to remove that feature altogether or at least lessen it. Yeah, I know that will never happen, but that was the one thing I didn't like about ACNL. Well, that and that villagers could just pop in if they wanted to, and they only did so if I was doing something, like decorating. What I don't like in ACNH: that we can't make bulk purchases at the Able sister's shop. If I want 3 different shirts I have to enter the booth 3 times, and that's unnecessarily annoying and time consuming. That we can't bulk craft. Villagers just popping by. I wish we could lock the door. As it is, I often make a bee line for one of the rooms not adjacent to the door and just play not at home if I'd rather continue doing what I'm doing instead. It's nice they come by when I'm not busy, but I wish we had a choice. What I miss in NH: I wish we could do more with the villagers, like play hide and seek, I always liked that in NL. Other games have disappeared as well. Visitors at the camp site in NL would sometimes suggest a game where you had to buy one of five items from them and the price would rise for each item you rejected. it was rare they had anything particularly interesting, but it was still fun. And I miss Tortimer's island with its mini games and the possibility of making a small fortune on the valuable fish and bugs. I miss the sign outside the museum in NL that lists all the donations. Especially helpful when Redd visits.

0:48 okay, no, we can all agree that the whole autosave feature is not something that we can specifically use to say "game = bad" because ALL games used to not use autosave for the longest time, (hence, "autosave not being invented yet") and that doesn't take away from the actual game itself. Any old game (and honestly some new games still) can and will have progress wiped if you forgot to save (as is the whole existence and necessity of saving the game in the first place). Game is still good even if you have to manually save the game, it's just a pain in the ass for us adhd gamers who forget to charge devices or just saving the game in general if distracted enough lmao 😂😅 /Lh

I named my ACCF town Mexico, and the grass deterioration has made it pretty authentic.

love this video thank you for sharing the struggles we persist through for this game.

15:15 I just realized. It would be super funny if you could sell Wisp’s lamp in New Leaf.

My sibling and I were obsessed with Wild World when we were little. From around 2005 to around 2010 we played a lot. My play style involved a lot of time traveling and restarting my town, probably dozens of times. My sibling in the other hand didn't like to time travel that much, and worked hard on their town for years. They managed to get one of every item in the game purely by relying on my constant resets and time traveling, and in the mean time they gained millions from the Grove of foreign fruit all across the island. They had basically 100 percent the game by themself. Then their wild world cartridge decided to break one day, making their game crash and random with seemingly no rhyme or reason. They got stuck in a loop of trying to deal with resetti for literal months, without a lack of trying to fix it. I believe they eventually did manage to get through it once but their game was practically bricked by that point and basically killed their ability to enjoy it.

Me and my mom wanted to see the "stink flower" that appears when you have too much weed in your wild world safe so we decided together to skip until the weeds overtook it was actually pretty cool!

The weeds in Wild World, oh god war flashbacks

I remember getting my cider for New Year in ACNL and my character immediately tripped and spilled it. I waited a whole year to see what it actually did

Easter. Fucking Easter. I hated how often how often i would be fishing and *pop* egg. Too many freaking eggs everywhere.

I use treasure island in ANCH and the amount of time i've been kicked from islands because someone disconnected or didn't leave properly is insane. Having to go back and get everything again is so tedious.

It will just always be crazy to me you weren’t allowed to be black (without going out of your way like Mii masks or tanning) until New Horizons.

FINALLY someone speaks out that Resetti ain't all that. Sure he's funny and unique but the actual gameplay experience is annoying.

All dialogue is absolutely the most tedious.

I'm grateful for your animal crossing content 😊

I've played every animal crossing mainline game (Except GCN because despite owning a Wii my parents never got it for me. Also the game is older then me.) I grew up with both Wild World and City Folk at the same time. I was very young at the time, like 6-8 when I played both those games. Even as a little kid I recognized how similar these two games were, and actually HIGHLY preferred City Folk because 1. It had the City. And 2. It was prettier. I want to make a note, I didn't even know grass deteration was a thing in this game until long after I stopped playing regularly. Granted I didn't even know you could press a button to run faster for a very long time. Listen hyper accessible internet acess in your pocket was just not a common thing in the 2000s. If I wanted to go online I had to ask permission to go on the shitty windows vista family desktop. I had absolutely no idea of serveal basic features of animal crossing let alone the gerneral consensus of the games. Even if I had known about grass deteroration I don't think I would've cared at that age. I didn't care about having my town be pretty. I was playing because I loved hunting down rare bugs and fish, and paying off my debt for a bigger house, as well as talking to villagers. I didnt give a shit about how pretty my town was, at all. I didn't even know that was a thing people cared about. To give you an idea of just how little I knew about the online AC community, I didn't know tarantulas were a bug that 1. Existed. 2. Could harm you. I got so freaked out when one bit me for the first time I developed a legitimate phobia of playing the game at night. Plus, When my parents told me you could catch sharks in this game I thought it was a rumor, because in the little time I had been online, I had already fallen for online rumors before. (Webkinz killer, Waluigi in SM64DS, Nintendogs can have puppies etc.) I think a combination of childhood ignorance, lack of easily accessible internet, and maybe even rose tinted nostalgia goggles is why as a kid I growing up with both WW and CF I highly preferred CF.

Mr. Resetti actually made me cry a few times when I was a kid 😂

Completely agree on the Wisp part. It would be so much better if Wisp could give you some spirit/ghost themed items when helping him

Every day I’m shuffling

whoever enjoys listening to Flick's entire dialogue furing bugoffs over and over and over again is a psychopath

they could have easily fixed the "someone left" situation during online play, by makibg them listen to Resetti four hours.. could have been a perfect scenario to bring back his original features, fould have taught obnoxious players a lesson, could ha e save everyone from frustration.

8:54 back when we played ww, my friends and i used to help each other out with the chore. one would invite the other and chill at the same time. If it was through online connection, we would talk on the phone while weeding everything out, but sometimes we would even have hangouts irl. the rule was that whoever had called for help would give the other a gift. my friends used to gain bells exceptionally well (and fast) and they always treated me to something nice or rare. we were just kids! good times

I remember going to other people's towns online in the old games to pull their weeds for them, and they'd pay me for it 😆 I liked picking them though, it was kinda zen

17:00 a way they could fix this is for the Menu to be a ‘form’ you fill out. He has a clipboard *right there* that he could pick up and hold out to you, causing you to ‘think’ and then pull up the menu.

it's always so curious seeing both the perspective for those who are used to AC New Horizons VS for those who are used to the older games. like, there are possibilities of one side complaining about something that the other side like or vice versa.

In new leaf I use to like bad luck because you could glitch into walls and areas after they patched the bug net glitch

9:11 I think New Horizons deserves way more hate than City Folk. It turned the franchise into a customization game, when it’s supposed to be a life sim. It also cut tons of features.

Not going to go through all the comments here, so if it's repetitive I apologize. CF's grass deterioration was applied on *every single log-in*, so if you had a family island the grass took a hit with EACH player logging in to do daily play. We had four active people on our island and it turned into a sandy wasteland on large parts of it because of the daily compounded deterioration. It was a mess.

8:55 i had to weed my whole island because the clock on my DSi was set to 2000 and i forgot to change it. I actually find it quite relaxing!

12:35 this part came on as soon as I found wisp😭

I love wild world it's my childhood game even though I'm still a kid but I grew up on the ds

I just notice that Mr resetti is named after reseting your game

The villagers got so bad, I miss it when the villagers would actually have personality

I don’t usually use the new horizons online because wean online is on Wasps tarantulas scorpions are disabled and they’re very good source of money There is like 75% or 50% less fish and bugs And balloons coming to your island are disabled And you can’t redecorate your island or change your house when people are in your village

Can u Please give me advice so I never backed up my animal crossing world and I lost my animal crossing disc for a month I got it back and I lost all my items and my furniture and my money and all my clothes so I was yeah please help me get it

Speedrun plucking all of the weeds in ACWW

New Horizons- No in game clock and auto save. When I start a game for the first time the clock gets set 4 hours behind and the date stays the same. Late night player that doesn't like missing late afternoon things. Changing the clock on the console doesn't work for someone that doesn't time travel and plays games that will mess up your game. Disney Dreamlight Valley time travel is a huge issue. Auto save has caused issues with players closing their game and having to download the game again. I prefer to save after catching a hard to get bug or having the host save after trading. The only reason for duping and time traveling didn't stop players. There are Treasure Islands that have duped items. Tools breaking in New Horizons was time consuming to craft. I think early game I spent more time crafting than playing the game. No rental tools on the island tours was a big disappointment. Gold tools are suppose to be something special that you get after completing bug, fish, perfect town, and slingshot. With crafting added those are no longer special. Breaking gold tools what were the Devs thinking.

worst part by far in new leaf is the fly attracting plant that spawns after being gone for a while i never knew how to remove it

The whole video should just be new horizons

With New horizons my only big issue is actually more about how the switch deals with multiplayer. Like id love to do online only activities without paying a subscription 😭

i hate crafting😅

When I was a kid and playing Wild World I would time travel so I could get a ton of Bells into my account and pay off all my debts. But I also, understandably, got overrun with weeds. I dealt with it for a while but then got sick of it and eventually plucked all the weeds! I don't know why weed plucking was so tedious in that game in comparison to like, New Leaf or New Horizons.

City folk was my fav. And yeag grass deteoration is real. Dis you run a lot? Its worse if you run

Biskit the lazy dog 😊

I wish I could toggle auto save off.

Nintendo should do a remaster of the Gamecube Animal Crossing, but include both all the Japanese extra content and all NES games that were released for the game. Combine that with online support? Bam, Nintendo could make a lot of money with that.

20:30 solution: let hosts manually save and continue the online play normally as it has ALWAYS BEEN A FEATURE IN EVERY OTHER ANIMAL CROSSING GAME. Im not kidding, before autosave was a thing, hosts could manually do a save and continue while playing online, even back in city folk, but now that there is autosave we cant do that anymore and instead depend on the shitty autosave and pray that it doesnt autosave in the worst possible moment? how hard would have it been to implement manual host saving like in older games? It was a really cool feature back when new leaf had online (R.I.P) but now theres nothing. Great nintendo, you always taking the worst possible decisions. P.D. Nintendo Switch Online is trash :P

I miss Resetti

The storage system in gamecube AC??????? Horrid

New Horizons: not being able to use touchscreen just like the damn DS even could. I mean it’s a damn touchscreen years beyond the DS’ but you can’t move your items around with it, can’t tap on the screen buttons. Also you’re not able to select items and drop them on the ground all at once. Flowers are an infestation, you should be able to pick them up with hands destroy them running on top of them and they definitely should wilt away. Gold tools break? What the actual phuuuuccc. Where’s the post office? Where’s the observatory? Why KK plays in the plaza instead of The Roost? Terraforming controls are ass. 3:00 am music is awful. Nookway? Nook N’ Go? Isabelle is a great character I wish her role in NH wasn’t this lame. Harv has a full island there should be actual buildings with shops instead of a rednecky camper site.

The worst part of new horizons for me is new horizons. Its my least favorite animal crossing game 😢 and i hate that i hate it but i dont like how different it is from the other games. I want to like it tho i really do

Personally i love ACNH but ACNL is my fav. game from ac. why? Cuz first of all online costs money i dont get it why ._. ... now i bought a new acnl for my 3ds and they turned off the online mode on the 3ds -.-. in acnh sometimes i cant get an axe cuz something is missing or i dont haver the crafting thingy so i cant do sh*t so annoying!

great job. NOW DO IT AGAIN IN E+ PLEASE!!1

New Horizons Online Play was horrible. I didn't like how the game forces you to wait 1 or 2 mins for someone to come to the island or leave. I prefer the online system of the older Animal Crossing games. I enjoyed playing online in New Leaf before the 3DS online servers shut down. I wish Nintendo would upgrade the online system in New Horizons. I do like Wild World too but I easily get bored of it since there isnt that much to do in the game. I'm looking foward to playing the Original Animal Crossing and City Folk. I've only played Wild World, New Leaf and New Horizons.

yoo love your videos glad to be so early.

18:59 They didn’t really put much thought into New Horizons. Everything is so counterintuitive.

I hate how everyone tells me the dlc is good because it’s like a whole another game. Why couldn’t they add that to the already SUPER expensive main game? The dlc isn’t THAT good, it’s just an excuse to make you suck up for money because you know damn well the main game is empty

People LIKE mr resetti?? Absolutely not. e.e

I think the worst thing about new leaf is the lack of character customisation. If you’re not white you really have no way to make your character look like you except for using miis or tanning in the sun for hours

Not to be THAT guy but you can just buy several axes at once, that’s what I did as a kid

Nintendo have never been good with online multiplayer iirc.

I want them to bring back the dump police station and Sahara car wash from the original gullivers space ship from wild world shampoodles kicks the retail shop and Brewsters from a few other games the wishing well gifts the raffle at Tom nooks Gracie grace fashion shop Leif’s shop and the mini games on the islands from new leaf

Grass deterioration sucked in city folk

Crafting is the worst thing to happen in the entire franchise. I HATE it

Wisp does NOT take up the slot of one of the visiting characters in Hew Horizons. So he's completely optional and does not negatively impact your game in any way. Stop spreading misinformation! 👻

Hello Rocket Elijah my name is Isaiah and I have something important to say to you. God loves you and like any father he wants to help you and keep you safe especially from the devil. But I am not just speaking to you about this I am also talking to your fans about this. God loves you all and the Lord wants us to put our trust in him. Do not be afraid to come to the Lord. For his love is for evreyone. Shalom Shalom.

I am now dissatisfied.

ROCKET ELIJAH DROPPED A NEW VID🚨🚨🚨

Hot take! I smell the boo’s already. I think acnh is my least favorite. Here is why. I play animal crossing for the goofiness of the villagers, and I also play just for certain special characters. ACNL takes the gold for me always It wasn’t my first animal crossing which is shocking to a lot of people despite my age. But acnl wins just because villagers are so goofy to me there

HOW DO YOU GET YOUR WILD WORLD TO LOOK SO SHARP

The worst part about new leaf is when villagers leave without telling you. Sometimes they can even stay/leave despite what you say to them. Or when they can can crush your perfect fruit by moving in. How is this game relaxing? Also i remember when playing wild world for the first time and saw how bare the town looked. So i restarted fresh and there was hardly any grass... I do miss the microphone though because my villagers love to hide in new horizons. Also he seems to give me stuff I thought I already had. And wisp seems to be annoying in both games. Especially when he kept bugging me about a feature that I could use at that time.

early
