Things you didn't know about forever?

I?ve never seen Wisp and his lamp until yesterday. I took a break from playing, and just came back and I was so surprised. It was definitely a first and a great home decoration! Also taking flowers from the island tours is something I learned online, very useful for filling your town up fast
 
I didn't know about Cyrus & the Lava Lamp color glitch until today. Was very confused as to why my "purple" Lava Lamp was yellow. :confused:
 
I was talking to Truffles, who I got from a town named Treetop, and she mentioned that she used to live in another town called Honeydew. I haven't had a villager talk about living in any town other than the one I got them from, so I assumed they just forgot about it.
 
Today I went to build my first PWP in Cacturne. I was expecting to have very little to choose from, but to my surprise, all of the PWPs I had unlocked in my old town were there! I had no idea the game transferred PWP catalogs between towns.

I bought the game in 2013 and literally played it religiously, yet I somehow didn't know that you could scan qr codes off of the internet for like 2 years after I got it... It sounds real dumb, but I wasn't active on any forums or watched many videos about acnl so I didn't know about the sewing machine lmao
 
I didn't realize you could use the lockers in the museum. I used to run back and forth between my house and the empty rooms to put clothes in... felt like a dolt when I finally realized that the lockers weren't for decoration, lol. So much wasted time!

Same here. I thought I was the only one. LOL

I didn't realize I could use the train station locker when I first started. To be honest, I never went in the train station for any reason, so I didn't even know the locker was there. I spent the first week or so desperate for a furniture item that worked as storage. My inventory was always full. I found out about the lockers AFTER I finally got a dresser. I felt like an idiot.
 
I JUST found out that you can collect mushroom furniture in November. I did wonder in November as I wasn't really seeing any extra mushrooms, but turns out I already had too many in my town..
 
I didn't know you could pop balloon presents with a shovel until a while back.
Or that you could jump off the cliff in a wetsuit into the water.
 
I know that a villager says "*Villager name's* pic" if you're a boy, and they say "pic of *Villager name*" if you're a girl. But I never knew about the different dialogue that you and Kapp'n say when speaking to Kapp'n about going to Club Tortimer.
 
i just found out that you can wake up gulliver really easy by using the megaphone
hes instanly awake and doesnt talk as much in the beginning
 
There are still so many things I don't know about ACNL. I don't think I played enough to experience most of the PWPs or town customization options that so many hardcore players do all the time. I also didn't know until a few days ago that the amiibo update made it so villagers won't move in on patterns! I think that's a really cool feature.
 
Cliff diving into the ocean. I had a pink wetsuit for the longest time and it was only here, browsing BT forums I read about it. I was swimming from my regular beach to my private one every time. After I read about it. WEEEEE!
 
Today I learned that if Harvey is playing the tambourine and you use an emotion, he stops playing and just looks at you for a moment. I was trying to dance along with him, but I found out he stopped every time I did the Shrunk Funk Shuffle.
 
As said below, i didnt know you could cliff dive into the ocean. I was walking along my friends cliff in her town and jumped in accidentally and was like OMG I JUST THREW MYSELF OFF THE CLIFF.. Its pretty hilarious if you dont know about it
 
Well when I first was playing animal crossing as a young child (wild world especially) I think I just thought kapp'n was a turtle, then I became more of a weaboo then I already was and learned that kappas are a thing from them being in some animes and realized he's a kappa XD also I think I just thought nook was a raccoon rather than a tanuki
 
I had no idea you could use the megaphone to find the owner of lost items.

Omg I had no idea either! This has just made it so much less annoying and time consuming to find the owner of the lost item.
Finding out things like this is the reason why I often go through this thread haha :)

For real, so many things in here that I had absolutely no clue about.
