I've had multiple streetpasses, but I have never received any items :c does it have to be the same person multiple times or what?

Yep, needs to be the same person. I think you start recieving items after the 2nd time you streetpass them.
 
Hi, I'm new here and half-new to the game (played WW a lot before and owned NL since September, but I haven't played since Halloween.. Anywho! Three questions.
1. The balloons (regular, with just one balloon), is there only furniture from the balloon series in it or do they come with other stuff as well?
2. When a villager moves in to your town, do they care about trees or bushes or will they crush that as well? (i know they don't care about paths or flowers)
3. I've noticed many people have more than one town, do you play on several devices or how is that possible? =)

Thanks!

1. You're talking about the balloon presents, right? Unfortunately, they only have the Balloon Series. I also played WW a lot and was disappointed to discover that they didn't hold random furniture.

2. Villagers can destroy trees/bushes when they move in. The only thing they can't destroy is PWPs, so some people use those (and alternate characters' houses) to try and block off areas from a plot.

3. You can have more than one town in a few different ways. Some people have a cartridge copy and a digital copy. Or you can have multiple cartridge copies. For this, you only need one 3DS. You can have as many cartridge copies for one 3DS as you want, plus one digital copy (you can only have one digital copy per system). The only thing is that if you have one 3DS, you can't transfer anything between the towns without help from someone else. Some people do have multiple systems, which also means that you can have multiple digital copies (alongside cartridge copies, but you can always have as many of those as you want). Here, you can transfer stuff between the towns by yourself. Hope that made sense! Sorry if it didn't!

Oh, thank you for your response. And yes, it made sense, all of it =)

It's good to know about the balloons though, makes them less must-have'ish, but sad since i wanted it like WW as you said.
The house placing isn't a big problem at the moment, but I will get there later, so it's good to know that PWPs can make a difference.. *starting to plot how to build my town*

Thank you for the answers! =)

No worries! Just keep in mind though that if you want the badge for popping balloons, you may want to continue shooting them down, especially the bundles with two or three balloons. Easter is an excellent day for getting those badges since balloon presents delivering eggs show up very frequently. I got my Gold badge on that day and I'm so thankful that I no longer have to shoot down balloons with that furniture series, haha.

Oh man, for real? What a bummer! But I thought that can't be a coincidence...


Siiigh. I had Gwen in my camping site yesterday and she wanted to move in. I thought, why not. But today there's no new spot reserved for her, and then I found Gulliver on the beach but he just vanished after I went to the island. What's going on? xD;

Campers usually take 2 days to put a plot down in a town. She'll probably show up tomorrow. :)

Not sure about Gulliver. Did you wake him up? He may be wandering around on your beach somewhere.
 
Good to know about Gwen. I hope she shows up. <3

And nevermind about Gulliver. I read about him in the AC wiki and I guess he vanishes after answering his questions and I'll get my letter later. Thanks anyways! :3
 
I'm making a new town and I can't decide on a name for my male mayor. Should I go with, Noc (as in nocturnal, pronounced like "knock"), Wander or Vigil ?
The town is going to have the night owl ordinance so I want to go with night-ish names

Of those three, I like Noc the best.

Does in game luck affect the chance of getting a PWP request?

No. You may have three types of luck: Money luck, Item luck, and Luck luck affecting the amount of money you find, the number of items you find, and the rarity of items you find respectively. Luck doesn't affect PWP requests at all.
 
As we're talking about PWP request, I have a question ; Once you get a PWP request a day, do you have to wait another day to get a new request, or can you get multiple requests a same day ?

apparently it's possible to get more than one request a day, but personally it's never happened to me and I'm pretty sure it's fairly rare for this to occur
 
when you visit a villager's house, at the end when they ask you like... "how did you like it?" or something along those lines, what happens if you tell them it was terrible (basically the worst option)? Do they just get sad or...?
 
i've never tried it but apparently nothing detrimental, in fact depending on the personality type it can go quite well (cranky personalities for example usually seem to love it when you insult their house haha) and they'll thank you for telling the truth. you still get a present the next day also as far as i'm aware.

whether this effects the friendship with the villager i'm not sure, but i don't think so!
