Today I Learned: New Horizons Edition

Someone on reddit said that on January 1st, the sunrise and sunset had a different look to them, because Japanese culture believes the first rise and set of the New Year are special. I wish I had personally noticed in my own game...but, yeah...they are supposedly much prettier than the average rise and set.

I seen it. I was thinking it was specific to the month. It was a beautiful golden sunset. That's too bad I won't see it anymore.
 
Sorry if this is a repeat but I learned that if you don’t want to dig up fossils every day but you don’t like seeing them scattered in random places on your island, you can bury them someplace else that’s more to your liking (like behind a building) and they won’t respawn.

Today I learned that you can preview/toggle what your hat/glasses/accessories look like with your new face in the mirror. I used to always exit out of the mirror to see how it looks with my current accessories.
 
I dont know if anyone has seen this before or mentioned it but i was a bit bored and since i had finished my fish collection i went to the museum to appreciate the details put into it, cause the museum its just too gorgeous ( hopefully it will be expanded to more in the future cause its too precious) anyways ! hahah i noticed the following:



I noticed the Piranha will chase you around if you walk too closely to it and will even follow you around when you move or it will just try to bite you through the class if you stand still, how neat is that!!! Love the details for real 💛! ( also can we all please appreciate that beautiful gymnastic skills the piranha has 😂 )

Then I also when to the bug area which I need like 3 summer bugs I believe and noticed the bugsies where fighting and the looser flies off !!
when i re-entered the room a new fight was happening with different bugsies, shall we bet on which ones will defeat each other ?😂

I’ve been playing since last April, but I just learned a couple of days ago that if visitors come and water your flowers you’re more likely to get more hybrids more quickly.
 
i preordered the game so i had it at release yet i've only just found out, when u have shooting stars, u get more star fragments when a friend visits to wish on them too ☆

That’s a great one. I didn’t know that. I’m glad I’ve found this thread!

Oh, thank you!
 
I found out that if you have a 2nd player on your island and you use the "Call Resident" on your nook phone you can use the other user as "follower" to store diys, flowers, and trees in the Recycle Bin at Resident Services when they are not the leader.

I learned last night on a FABULOUS dream island that you can jump between cliffs, even if there's no water between. And THEN I learned, on a different part of the island, that you can manipulate that to be jumping between PILLARS surrounded by WATER. Please look at the pic they posted on their instagram, here. I can't handle how cool this island was. Now I have to raise everything up a level...

What’s the dream address for that?! 😍

i recently learned that spamming a when crafting speeds up the process.. i was so surprised and happy i would be saving one (1) second of my life 😅 i also learned that it can requires a couple of days of scanning in amiibo cards to have those villagers move in, i was not really happy about that :/ though i guess it kind of makes sense to discourage people from scanning in any villager they want, instead of learning to appreciate the random villagers you get :D or at least that's what happened for me :p

You dont need to spam A. You just have to double tap A. Easier on your buttons!
 
Today I learned that if you’ve been eating fruit to move around trees... and then you go to move around your bathroom furniture randomly and end up accidentally sitting on your toilet... it will “deal with” all that fruit you’ve eaten. Don’t forget to flush.
 
I completely forgot that the tail of the Firefly model actually lights up at night, so I didn't know at first why there was a tiny glow near my river.

I have the football fish model and will see tomorrow if it also has light, but knowing Flick, he probably didn't put that feature on a fish.
