I just got this game two days ago. It's actually the very first Animal Crossing game I've ever played, so I'm VERY new, haha..
And I just restarted my town a few hours ago. I'm still trying to get the hang of things.
I just got New Leaf a couple of days ago also. I've been playing Animal Crossing since the gamecube version back in 2002, lol. If you need help with anything, feel free to ask! Hope you like the game!
