This hasn't been posted in since New Horizons came out, so I am thereby reviving this and adding in some pros and cons of New Horizons. I will also try to add more to the four preceding games that slipped my mind.
GAME CUBE
Pros:
The music has it's own charm
Exclusive Holidays like the Sports Fair and others
Villagers felt very-much "alive"
There was a optional for if you wanted to do a chore for a villager
Valise (I never had her, but I love the snooty and cranky kangaroos and she is gorgeous)
Cons:
The NORMALS were mean. Only the snooty and cranky should. The normal villagers are supposed to be sweet
You didn't really see a friendship being built.
VERY limited customization
You couldn't get rid of your hat.
WILD WORLD
Pros:
I love how villager pics were handled in here.
Snooties and Crankies still lived up to their name, but they still warm up to you unlike in GC.
Excusive holidays like bright nights and the flower fest.
This also goes for City Folk, since they are the same, but I LOVE the hourly tracks, they are my favorite in the series.
Cons:
Lots of villagers were absent
A lot of the real holidays were taking out like Christmas and Valentine's Day
You have to have Nookington's to get Shampoodle, which required someone to buy something from your store, which you cannot do anymore in Wild World, as the Wi-Fi got shut down
It is like a chore to keep dream villagers from moving out
THE LETTERS FROM MOM!!!! UGH!! -.-
CITY FOLK
Pros:
The city was a great addition
Ankha and Astrid came back
The graphics were pretty good
Cons:
They took out Villager Pics
The dialogue was EXTREMELY repetitive
NEW LEAF
Pros:
LOTS AND LOTS of new features
New bugs and fish
Holidays, events, and birthdays are a lot more in-depth
More villagers came back, including Velma
Lots of villagers, including Rooney and Walt, were introduced
New Villagers species (deer and hamsters)
The Snooties and Crankies act like mother figures and father figures respectively
There are a lot of indications of a friendship being built/a high friendship
Villagers give medicine to you for your bee stings
Cons:
The passing train when I have to go into main street
Villagers changing their mind about moving
Villagers asked for favors that required going to other towns
The "luck" mechanic
Villagers do feel "robotic" and repetitive
It can be frustrating just to track down a villager
NEW HORIZONS
Pros:
The graphics are absolutely gorgeous
You can place furniture outside
You can relocate buildings and even villager houses, THANK GOD
You can TERRAFORM
Even though I am in the northern hemisphere, I appreciate the Southern Hemisphere being added. The backwards seasons are a trip, and even the moon is flipped in terms of its illumination
More new critters were added
The museum got a glow-up and is absolutely beautiful
New flowers were added
Cons:
This game is missing a lot of characters and buildings.
I feel the game relies too much on crafting
Tools break, even the golden ones
The game forces you to obtain villager personalities in a certain order
