Animal Crossing's 20th Anniversary

Happy 20th Anniversary to Animal Crossing!

I forgot to include it in my last post but never late than never! I've only played 2 games but its still one of my favourite Nintendo franchises. Cheers and good luck to everyone!

Ah, I've been away for so long I totally forgot to check out the forum boards lately. Good thing I caught this! Almost missed the deadline...

New Leaf was my first AC game and around the same time I started playing I found TBT Forums
NL was really something truly new and unique to me compared to the rest of the games I liked. Oh it got me good. I have so many great memories with my boyfriend when he started playing year or two after me. When I studied NL kept me company during boring lectures but it also got me frustrated so many times when I was campsite resetting.
Funny thing: I did know very little about AC when I bought it and at the time I was soo curious if I'll be able to marry one of the animals ^^'

When Pocket Camp come out I did played it for some time. It was lovely at the beginning but quickly started to push multitransactions and other typical mobile games tricks to keep the player engaged. I'm really glad that I dropped it.

And then new AC game was announced and sometime later New Horizons happened. The wait was so painful but in the end it was worth every day of it. NH is not perfect but in my opinion it's close, very close. Those memories in March and April 2020 when all my friends were playing... Amazing experience even though it didn't last very long.
I'm still playing, still with my boyfriend, not with that excitement as a few months ago but I still enjoy it. And I know it will take many months more to finish my town. It will be perfect.

It was such a great ride ❤

Wow happy birthday Animal Crossing! I'm so glad I stumbled upon the game (and later this forum) what feels like many moons ago.

My favorite memories of playing New Leaf have been the interactions and friendships that started on here!

My fondest memories of Animal Crossing mostly came from Wild World and Animal Forest. I remember ignoring all other games for a while and strictly focusing on them. I loved the music, the character dialog and how rude they could be, I loved discovering new flower hybrids and fish without looking them up on the internet. It was an amazing experience.

From New Leaf, my favorite memories came from mostly from people I met on Tortimer Island. Some were rude, some were funny and playing mini games with others is something I still wish NH added. Also discovering new types of fruit brought back feelings of playing WW for the first time again.

Voted for New Horzions because that's the only one I played and my favorite memory so far was competing with my brother trying to catch a barreleye. It doesn't sound exciting but that is one elusive fish lol

Happy 20th Anniversary Animal Crossing!!!

Oh, the nostalgia!
Becoming fascinated by those weird live-action commercials... Renting it from Blockbuster for the first time and falling in love... Having my angry neighbours slowly warm up to me... Kicking the soccer ball around...
...That time my BFF Bob betrayed me by moving away, scarring me forever

I feel so old

Wow in my head I started with Wild World so I was trying to work out how that was 20 years. Sadly I never had the earlier consoles / games.

i rented city folk as a kid and liked it enough to buy it with the wii speak, have good memories of sending stuff through the wii speak channel
