Well, here's to my last night in my Animal Crossing:Wild World town. I will be placing you back in your original game case where you have not rested since the day I bought you many years ago. Oh, how I will remember the town of Otter.

Walking through the fruit groves I painstakingly planned out, will I miss only being able to carry 15 pieces of fruit at one time? My golden roses, how I agonized over breeding the correct flowers to have you bloom in my town, not to mention all of the watering I had to do beforehand just to obtain the golden watering can before I could consider letting the black roses wilt.

My townies, some of my favorite friends who shared their photos with me and whom I had to beg not to leave. Daisy, Bones, Alfonso, Agent S, just to name a few. Then there were those townies whom I thought would never leave: Caesar, Tabby, and all of the cows. Good Lord, the cows and bulls that moved to my town (sometimes multiple times!). The town of Otter must have been bovine heaven. Every cow/bull that moved to my town was treated with a BBQ grill as a welcome gift. They never got the hint. To the townies I never had the pleasure of meeting: Apollo (we share a birthday), Tiffany (a goth bunny, you have to love that), Goldie, Lucky and any monkey. I hope we finally get to meet in a new town.

My house was a quaint homey place with 5 rooms to decorate, but only an attic to sleep in. I'll miss the throne I had to save up for, and the Exotic furniture I had to pay Redd a pretty penny/bell for to get the final matching piece. I'll miss the turnips on the table I saved for just the right selling day (shhh...they aren't supposed to stay fresh that long).

And to dear Tom Nook, we'll be seeing each other again tomorrow in a new town, you in your new job, and me in mine. I wish you would give me a frequent customer discount, but you'll probably act as if you have never seen me before. Even so, somehow I would rather owe bells to you, than anyone else.

I'll miss all of this and more, but tomorrow I will be moving on to bigger and better things. I will never forget Otter, the good times and bad. My old town only increases my anticipation for my new town. I may return some day, but I fear it will be a very, very long time from now.

Farewell, favorite town. Tomorrow I turn over a New Leaf.
 
Beautiful, just beautiful...

This post gives me memories of the long duration of time I spent everyday playing Wild World. Watering my plants, talking to villagers and connecting with friends. Those days are now memories; as I have not touched the game in over a year. Maybe some day, il finally release the game card from its case...

After reading such a beautiful post I feel the need to say bye to Fantasy where all my neighbours are and my town that never got perfect town hehe! Emotional!
 
This is very sweet. A lovely farewell.
I don't know if I can leave WW behind, but needs must...
 
This is quite bitter-sweet. I'm happy you made so many fond memories.
 
Sad to leave behind the old game but it has to be done. I think I'll send my neighbours a farewell gift before I play NL. Gosh, I'm so full of emotions. Way too emotionally invested in Animal Crossing
 
Aw, I tossed aside my WW town last night too. It fell on the floor (which was a mistake, I should have been more careful). I'm just not ready to let go... I'll dip back in a couple of times a week I think, far too much effort went into it to just cast it away!
 
That's beautiful...It reminded me of my times in WW. Those villagers that never seemed to move out, those dreamies that never moved in...I miss it. Today might be the day that I return to the town of Palette.
 
I use to play wild world I loved it it was the first animal crossing I ever played I have played all animal crossing except for the game cube one.
