How did you find out about Animal Crossing?

[Mayor Rose]

aah, when i was a wee-one, i was always playing my gameboy or gamecube
and just animal crossing was a game that fell into my hands? along with a bunch of others? i have two siblings and we all had dses, and just played with one another. i think me and my sister shared a game at one point, but i think we all had separate games. pretty sure i lost mine and i combined with her? not very exciting. there was no falling meteorite with the game in it or w/e sorry not very exciting.

Saw a super cheesy commercial about it on tv.

My sister got me a 3DS XL bundled with it and a kpop album for my birthday; that was when I discovered the world of Animal Crossing.

I first heard about it with the wild world and city folk games. At the time, I wasn't invested with the series. Though that changed with the new leaf game. Since then I've really liked the series. Though personally, I think I'll pass on the Amiibo festival game. Haven't been a huge fan of party games for a while.

Many years ago, when my brother and I were kids, there was a movie rental store in our town that had video game rentals as well. We usually rented a different game every few weeks, and one day we picked up Animal Crossing on the Gamecube. I've loved it ever since!

Fun fact, that store is also how I discovered the Harvest Moon series!

I started playing when wild world came out due to a friend having the game, I then learned later that there was an ac for gamecube.

Saw a cute commerical about ACWW and had to have the game! I looked up reviews and asked my mother to buy it for me and ever since then I've been in love with AC and play it whenever life does hit lol

I've heard about it by going on many forums and I was like eh I don't know. But years later I herd people talking about new leaf on my old forum and I decided to break down and buy it and I loved it since.

ahhh i don't even know, i just remember getting a gamecube when i was maybe 7 or 8, and it was one of the first games i got from my mom to play. so, yeah. not sure where she heard of it from, but i know it's stuck with me ever since. :')

Through chuggaaconroy's Let's Play. I might have known something about the series before, not sure, but he really made me interested in the whole universe of AC. And so, I finally bought the game (New Leaf) myself, yay!

I believe there was hype over the series in the internet as well, so that, too.
