I get that animal crossing, as a series, tries not to make you break character, and always tries to make it a first person experience. But please, this is getting racist as hell, just let me choose a skin color at the start. see: magician's quest
Harriet should have a Tanning Salon in the next game

For those who don't have it, how is it done in Magician's Quest?

It can be a tanning bed that works both ways. -~-
At the start of the game, the principal of the school you're attending asks you to show them how you look. A character customization screen comes up with a bunch of different skin colors, hair styles, eyes, etc.
why
stupid way to implement a controversial feature
there should just be a character customisation feature, which enables us to pick our eye type and skin type
*points upwards towards my posts*
oooh yeah that'd work just fine in ac
and we could still have rover ask us questions, only this time they determine how our town will look and what animals will inhabit it
yeah!
of course. rover would need to ask us questions anyway, to ask our name and town name, so he wouldn't go away because of proper character customization anyway.

This is an absolutely FANTASTIC idea. I still don't like the thought that you have to wait until later in the game to get a skin tone that's right for your character... but it's definitely better than any other ideas I've seen. (One time I saw someone suggest that for the skin tone question in the beginning, it would ask "Where are you from?" Answers: North, East, South, West; North being lightest, South being darkest, East and West being middle tones. Like...... n..o..........)
Maybe Rover asks "Do you hang out in the sun alot"? Then your options are:
I love that idea. I'm tan irl and it's awful remembering to go out into the island just to have my skintone be normal, gahh. One of my biggest pet peeves.

You don't magically become black by sitting under a tanning bed. We could just choose a color.
I've posted in threads about this before, I agree a choice of skin colour would be good in future games. I thought it would be perfect if right at the beginning of the game you just had a design your character page come up with a avatar you could design the way you wanted within the games built in limits, ie: gender, hair style and colour, eye shape and colour, skin tone, basic starting clothes. Then it could transport you to the train and Rover could ask his questions to determine your name, town name and map.
I think it would also be good to have a choice of all available maps at the beginning in a scrolling form so Rover didn't have to go through each one, and he could ask questions like what's your favourite fruit so you can pick your town fruit. I doubt this one will happen but it would be nice.

Showing each map at once might happen. Fruits isn't likely.
What happens if you decide to change race tho
Changing skin colour? I guess you couldn't after the initial design page. They could still have as an option tanning on the island and in the summer in the game though. I'm not sure they can make race changeable at any point in future games due to save space issues, I was just trying to think of a way it could be included as an option. unless they did like a Sims 2 DS game tanning booth thing; you could basically choose one of four skin tones from very light to very dark and I think it had alien colours like green, blue and pink.
