Things you didn't know about forever?

Today my friend kindly invited me to join her Naughty & Nice Day.
And I just knew while enjoying the tour in her houses, that you can REFURBISH THE HOLIDAY SOCKS!!
Didn't know that even after playing straight up like 6 years now.

And, knew how cute the standie is on that holiday<3

Spoiler:

^^what you could do that had no idea either.

And yeah I had no idea about all the refurbish ones until I really started to play HHD a lot back in the days...

I went months before learning you could get villagers to all where the same thing by mailing them five of the shirt/outfit you wanted them to wear.

My now deleted town had a theme, but I stupidly filled a delivery request to Stu, and it was the tulip shirt. A hideous beyond words, shirt. (It was then that I ceased all delivery requests.)

Stu then gave it to almost every other villager.

The tulip shirt.. in a Game of Thrones themed town. O_O

I eventually sent them all the Epona Outfit.. then would load the game and walk around until the villager I wanted to invite me to their house for an on-the-spot-visit, pinged me, and if they invited me over, I'd wait for them to offer to sell me an item in their home, and I'd buy that awful tulip shirt they had on display.

I'd save, then reload and do it all again with another villager.

I did this until all the tulip shirts were gone, and the nightmare was finally over.

I just found out that if you standing in front of the piggy bank and pressing A, you can hear the noise of a coin falling into it. I've never noticed this because the sound is so quiet and I mostly play either with no music or not full volume, so that's why I didn't heard it before. Nice detail.

Also, I didn't know until now that the watermelon can be refurbished into a sliced one. I just saw it in a dream town and was kinda surprised about this.

The watermelon doesn't need to be refurbished.

It's interactive.

If you click it when it's whole, it opens up into the spliced version.

I kept them in my pig pens I made in one of my player's houses in my old town. ^_^

Oh, didn't know this. I never had the watermelon and therefore thought you need to refurbish it to get a different version, like the sliced one in this case. Good to know it now.

Harvey sells it, and you can get it off Plucky in her RV, if you can visit someone who has her.

More like forgot, but the tropical floor in the Island Shop is 100 metals... That is no small bit of change!

 

[iExist]

That you could get millions of bells on the island every day >.<

I just know that if you send a birthday letter to villagers, they will notice it and reply back saying thanks for it

I never realized Dr. Shrunk would clap or do emotes back when you emoted at him / various other reactions

 

[CicadasNSeagulls]

I didn?t know you could catch snowflakes with the net. I only found out through a New Horizions gameplay trailer. I feel so slow lol (ˊᗜˋ*)

 

[Elveira]

I just realized if you time travel backwards, it will reset a villager that was already planning on moving out to another villager.

I literally just found out a couple of hours ago that those brown bags in the Nookling store has glow wands and stuff in them.

I played City Folk for so long I subconsciously passed them up as flowers. An entire year and I've been disregarding the coolest feature in New Leaf.

 

[Halloqueen]

I believe tonight was the first time I've ever seen the cumulonimbus cloud formation in New Leaf. Either that or I haven't regularly played in so long that I'd forgotten it was a thing, but it feels like a new discovery to me regardless. I thought my game was screwing up or something and looked around online before coming across a picture of what I was seeing.

If anyone's curious about what I'm talking about, it would be this. Picture from the animalcrossing.fandom.com wiki page on Weather:

Today I learned that the game won't throw you more than one birthday party per year. This year my birthday happened to fall on the same day as the Fishing Tourney, and I wanted to try to get both the silver and bronze trophies this time so I won't have to worry about that anymore going forward. I started up the game and was whisked away for my birthday party, then did the Fishing Tourney and got second place. Then I backed up a day to reset it, then came back to Saturday to try for the bronze trophy. I had probably been playing for like 10 minutes before I realized that I was also on my birthday again, but my neighbors didn't take me away for a party. I guess the game keeps track of that stat in particular!

 

[Tianna]

I guess this is because I haven't played in a while but like literally everything to do with the Welcome Amiibo update is news to me lol

 

[AccfSally]

I just realize you can customize the toast in the Toaster.

 

[poweradeex]

This thread teaches me so much and has me pikachu-facing.

I had no idea you could jump off the dock in a town while wearing a wetsuit.
