Holy crap, Liquefy I didn't know you were on TBT. o.o Uh. Hi there.

I'mma just bookmark that now then. xD I'm gonna be needing in in a few months!
 
Will you be making a FAQ for the US release too?

It's already made! All the versions will likely be the same, except for language, events, and DLC. I'll probably make another Item List FAQ because the North American in-game listing of items in the catalog will likely be different.

Yeah, haha. That's what I meant. The bulk of it is there, but I imagine changing names and such will still be something of a chore. That you so much for taking the time to make this.
 
indeed you can! I've received oranges, bamboo, lemons, and cherries all in letters. Just make sure to send your villagers things that they like and it never hurts to ask for fruits in the letter ;)

Thank you so much. I was afraid I would have to buy another New Leaf just to get all the different fruit xD
 
I've been trying to plan what clothes I want my characters to wear, but it is difficult without pictures and the google translated names don't help much. I take it that all City Folk clothes. Of course some being upgrades like the Zap clothes being long sleeve.
 
The villagers sometimes give fruit/bamboo as a thank you for doing an errand. I've managed to get most of my fruit this way as I have very limited wi-fi so I've never tried trading.
 
I have a question about the letter writing. If I recall, in one of the previous games, it didn't really matter WHAT you wrote, so much as using key words, punctuation, etc. Is it similar in this game, or do you actually have to write a letter that makes sense? lol I was a letter writing fool in order to get items and villager pictures, but I wrote the same thing every time. I wish I could remember what it was now!
 
I used to write the following letters.

Dear (insert resident name)
I thought of you when I bought this (insert item name).
I hope you like it.
Sincerely (insert your name)

Dear (resident)
I got you a gift.
I hope you like it.
Sincerely (you)

Dear (resident)
How are you today?
I am feeling sick.
Sincerely (you)

So yeah those all seemed to work for me.

Not sure what it would be for the US/EU version, but the tips given by the JP guides to get cool things are:

- say the animal name
- say thanks
- be nice
- keywords such as "play" "gift" "fruit" "present"
- more than 20 characters in the letter
- nonsensical letters will be ignored (such as typing 20 A's then the word "fruit")
 
Yeah, that's what I was talking about Zen! Thanks! :D I usually just put a string of the keywords in, etc. Appreciate it! Can't wait to try it out myself! :blush:

@Pickles: Zen is awesome at answer this kind of stuff.

@Zen: Yay! Now I know what to do for when New Leaf comes out!
Thanks a bunch!
 
In past games whenever I'd send my villagers letters I'd use the least complicated words I could think of and I'd make sure I'd say the word 'friend' at least once. For some reason I thought that would help. And I always send letters as if I'm talking to real people.

And yet I still got the 'I have no idea what that letter said' responses sometimes. |:
 
I admit, I get a little too into my animal crossing games. I could never repeat the same letter over and over again. Because then I picture the animals talking when I'm not there, discovering that I send them all the same letters, and then they'd all get mad at me and say I'm not really their friend and I just hang out with them to get free stuff.

;-; Guys no I love you. Well. Most of you. *glares at Tabby*

I just wrote 4 templates that I switch around from day to day.


"Hello! [something about the weather]. How are you, [name]? I hope we play again sometime."

"As always, [name], thank you ["for your friendship"/"for the present"]

"Hello again, [name]! This present is for you. Thanks for being my friend."

"Hi [name]! I am always thankful for your friendship. This is for you!"


In japanese, of course. Mix and match.
 
Hmm maybe I should try something like that. Wont have to worry about offending the neighbors that way. I so crazy. xD Worried I'll offend animal villagers in a game.

I have another question. Probably a commonly known thing by now but I was out of the loop for a while, how many villagers can you have total in the town this time around?
 
Because its pretty obvious the may one is incorrect since Nintendo released official dates :>
