* 10 days pass since the first community project
* Have the convenience store be built. Shrunk will want you to get your neighbors to sign a form.
Six days for it to open

I'm confused about 1 thing. When do you unlock the gardening store? Is it immediately unlocked or is it unlocked with the convenience store?

I think for the department store, you also have to get 4 Gracie fashion checks (and pass them). I could be wrong, though.

 

[JCnator]

Well, you're right! You have to pass 4 Fashion Checks with Gracie before they'll actually upgrade your stores for the last time. I had my 4th done, and the next day, they told me they'll close the day after.

An acre usually consists of 16x16 squares, in which it makes a total of 256 squares per acre. That makes a grand total of 5120 squares per town.

So, is it four acres horizontally and five vertically or the other way around. I was thinking about starting work on a bit of a map, since I can't play it. If I wasn't reasonably sure that it would be coming out in the next 3-4 months, I would import it, cuz I've watched enough gameplay to figure out most...and for the rest, there is always the internet.

All it explained was the feathers. I didn't see mention of any prizes.

"It seems that for festivale there will be feathers floating around the village and you have to catch them with the net. Pave will request 3 of a certain color and when you hand them over you’ll get a piece of the furniture. Apparently you can trade with villagers for different colors. There’s something to do with a rainbow feather as well, but I don’t quite know what the deal is with that."


sry double post i am stupid

Five acres across by four acres down.

Does the shopping card return in this game?

What do you guys think about the release date tommorow? Do you think it means anything for us/can we expect to get some new info out of it? For me its sort of like a milestone...another country's release date has passed and we are that much closer to ours. I just hope that maybe it means we will have our own info coming soon.

What do you guys think about the release date tomorrow? Do you think it means anything for us/can we expect to get some new info out of it? For me its sort of like a milestone...another country's release date has passed and we are that much closer to ours. I just hope that maybe it means we will have our own info coming soon.

I don't think tomorrow will glean anything for the rest of the world. I imagine NA might start to hear some more info as soon as the Fire Emblem and Brain Age stuff dies down. So sometime before the end of February I would guess we'll get a 3DS Nintendo direct containing information on both Luigi's Mansion and Animal Crossing.

Okay we have some questions here!^^^
Also when do you unlock the gardening store, or do you always have it?

 

[dexterminate88]

According to the wiki: after 5 days of being mayor if you have watered flowers, planted trees, and pulled weeds equaling a collective total of 30 times the construction for the gardening shop will start the next day. It doesn't say how long the construction takes, but I -think- it only takes a day.

Not sure about the shopping card, sorry.

 

[Zen]

Shopping card, no.

 

[Jamie]

Shopping card, no.

Well darn... guess it's back to carrying tons of bells around. Good thing we can't get mugged. :3

 

[Haihappen]

I was wondering.. what's that green thing you can buy now? It looks like a frog calendar?

 

[Nooblord]

You can create tunes on them, kind of like the town tune, and mail them like letters.

I'm from europe and if i had the european version and i went to someones town who has the japanease version of the game. Would the writing translate to english or would it stay japanease? And another thing again if i had the european version and when i went to someone who had the japanease version and it was sutsuban (don't know how to spell that) would i be able to buy them beans or not?

The game translates for you.
and you should be able to.

Shopping card, no.

Darn. :c
Thanks for answering my question though!

How does taking pictures work in this one? Is there a total limit of images you can save on your SD card? Is there a daily limit? Something I hated about City Folk is that you could only email one image straight from the game per day.
