no it was a reference to pokemon swsh excluding half the pokemon
Sorry, this is kind of a weird question I’m just genuinely curious
But how does the TBT value here rise/fall? Like with it’s exchange rate to IGB or even collectibles.
(I don’t understand much about irl economy stuff or stock exchange lol) Just got to thinking about this because I remember being around here in 2014 and buying 2 ACNL in game items for like 50 tbt and now items usually go for around 1-5 TBT.
Not complaining, just wondering. Also how might the release of New Horizons affect this as well.
I don’t know if this is an interesting or meaningful question so I didn’t want to start a thread but maybe someone who’s been around for a while would like to discuss or explain haha

Every item that people trade has some kind of value attached to it. Back in 2013, a complete set of furniture in New Leaf might have sold for a few hundred TBT Bells. This is because of a very basic concept called supply and demand.
As NL aged, the availability of items and bells also went up dramatically. This is due to the game aging, but also partially because of cheaters who were able to spawn as many bells and items as they want. Since there was a large amount of supply, the price of these items went down. Similarly, when NL came out, demand was very high. Everybody wanted bells and items, and there were not enough people to meet the demands, raising the price. Nowadays, the population of NL players has significantly dwindled, so anything you want, you can get without much competition.
When New Horizons launches, it is likely that items and bells in NH will be quite expensive. But like New Leaf, this will slowly decrease over time. If you are interested in having a lot of TBT Bells, you could always start a shop or sell in-game bells for TBT Bells when the game comes out. Hope this helped!

I'd agree with what Trundle has said.
Just my cents here regarding how the release of NH may affect, to NL market.
I'm assuming most (if not all) of players who sell items/bells in NL by cheating will be gone from NL trades. They'll "move on" to the new game of the franchise. There may not be a lot of suppliers, as well as decrease of demamds, once NH is released.
I'm wondering how it'll affect to the prices in NL trades.

Sorry guys, I'm kind of confused. Is this site supposed to be kind of balanced between both Pokemon and Animal Crossing or is this still mainly an Animal Crossing site? It feels like it's changed a little since I was on that long hiatus that happened I think near my join date. I only just got back here sometime in October of this year.
And if so, would the Pokemon community here be considered more on the competitive side or the casual side?

i kinda doubt NL trade prices will vary much from now on because a lot of people will focus on new horizons for a while. i do realize that new leaf will still be popular and have people trading and all the fun stuff that happens in the re-tail board, but i just don't think tbt prices will change that much there.
regarding cheaters in new horizons, i wonder how long it's gonna take before they show up? it's bound to happen at some point, no matter how hard nintendo makes it, but that being said, it's a lot harder to hack a switch and it's even harder to hack a switch and not be banned from online-play. so that'll be an interesting thing to watch happen...
It's still an Animal Crossing forum. We just celebrate the release of each new Nintendo game by representing it in our banner for a few days.

Are there cheaters selling on this forum?
I put so much time into processing orders when my shop it's open.. I recently made some new "rules" in my shop thread regarding orders to maximise the return on investing my time in it for me, it's true that prices are quite low so at least I don't think they can shrink even more. They haven't changed in the year that I've been here though..
Once New Horizons is on shelves I think I'll make a shop for that game (how exciting!), and perhaps keep the New Leaf one open for a little while to see what it does.

Yeah, I think that answers my question pretty well. Thnx and have a good night or day (whichever you're in).
its funded by Jeremy's hard earned allowance
It runs off of vBulletin like any other website hosting solution. I'm sure Jeremy pays with little donations from some of the staff team. Special benefits and all that jazz
They should be cleared now.
It’s unlimited and always available!
Awesome, thanks!
