I was in a BestBuy and saw the GC game guide magazine w/ all the info in it. I looked at all the pretty clothes and thought, what an awesome looking game... a year later I figured out it was Animal Crossing and bought the game. 
Then in 2005 I bought WW. And in 2013 I will buy AC:NL. Woop.

I went to my cousin's house one day and i saw him on the couch playing this colorful GameCube game on the couch. We spent two days straight playing this. I made my own character and paid off my debts. And when I got home I got my dad to take me out to buy AC: Wild World and I've had a love for the game ever since.

I was at a Gamestop and the original was in a bin for about $10 and it looked interesting so I bought it. This was probably late in 2002 when I got it. Definitely a way better blind purchase than Amazing Island as that game was absolutely terrible... Sad to say I choose it over Baiten Kaitos and have yet to even play that game.

I rented it at a Hollywood Video store and loved it! I rented 3 more times and bought the game on my birthday. This was about a year after it came out.

The first time I ever saw the game played was while I was at a cousin's house. I thought the game was really cute and stuff, he told me about all the things you could do in it and demonstrated some things. The eleven year-old thought that had to be one of the most amazing concepts ever for a game, (still holds true to this day). I especially couldn't get over how it went by real time, the only other game that I played that had that feature Pok?mon Gold/Silver/Crystal.
I got it later that year for Christmas (I honestly think now that winter has to be the most boring season to start out in and that playing it on Christmas just doesn't have the right feel!) along with several other games. Though that of stood out the most (well, Starfox Adventures too). I was pretty much hooked! Peewee, Gwen, Aurora, and Winnie (can't remember the other villager for the life of me) were my first villagers to the town and I just fell in love with all of them. I played it as regularly as I could to the summer or so and started to get bored of it because I had no one to play it with.
Few years later, whenever Wild World came out, I got that on New Year's Eve (yet another sucky day, haha). It didn't really grab me as much as the past game. I had another to play it with, but it just didn't seem as fun to me for some odd reason. All I remember is playing it on a rainy New Year's eve to New Year's day and then off and on for a month or so. (I'm really, REALLY hoping I'm not this way with New Leaf, doubt I will be though.)
City Folk's story isn't all that special, I picked it up this past summer while out with a few friends. I've been playing it off and on for awhile ever since, my husbear even joined in as well. Finally had more friends to play it with, too! We've all just been way too busy to play it. What with either college or working. Though, I have to say, my experience with City Folk was a heck of a lot more pleasant than Wild World's. Especially because it made me fall in love with two more villagers: Curt (seriously my spirit animal, hahaha) and Rhonda.
Also, have some cute Curt art that I found:

My cousin showed me WW one time on her DS. I thought it looked fun. :3 When I got a Wii (like 1 or 2 years later) I remembered it and bought CF.

My friend had WW on her DS and I decided to get it too.
I found out about WW from my daughter, who had it and said I would like it. I should have listened, because she knows what type of game I like! But, I didn't. Besides, I didn't have a DS console.
She then got ACCF the day it was released. I happened to be at her house that day, and got to watch her open it and play. Then I flew home and went right out to buy my own copy of ACCF since I already had a Wii. I have been playing it every day for over four years by now.

I just saw it at the store, and figured "Why not?"

I saw it on SSBB, I became intrested when I did research about it. Ever since that day I became so obsessed with it.
I found out about Animal Crossing in 2006 when I first got a DS Lite and "New Super Mario Bros". There was an advert for ACWW in the pamphlet, and it looked really fun so I got ACWW and I became completely addicted.
Then through the wonders of internet I found out about ACGC so I got that as well (and it became my favourite one), and then got ACCF when that came out.
Now I'll be getting ACNL when it's finally released and it's all thanks to "New Super Mario Bros".

This may seem a little weird, but i have no idea how i came to have a copy of AC:WW
whether i bought it or it was given to me, i can't remember, i only know that ive been playing it for a few years, and had to have AC:CF when it was released.
I was pretty young when i got it, I can scarcly remember playing it for the first time.
