Wild World was my first AC game, I then played GC, New Leaf, Happy Home Designer and Pocket Camp. I've also played City Folk on my friend's wii, I never bothered getting CF since I found it too similar to WW, even the music was the same... despite holidays like Halloween and Toy Day was in CF, I couldn't justify paying a lot of money for something that wasn't thought out as well as it could have been.
What Animal Crossing games have you played?

Wild World, New Leaf, Happy Home Designer, Pocket camp. I sadly never owned a gamecube or wii growing up.
But I did manage to play City Folk at my friends house growing up, and I have watched people play the GC version just a few times. I didn't really care for City Folk, as I think it's the most bland installation of the game so far.
Wild World got me into the series heavily when I first got a DS in 6th grade, sometime in 2007.
Wild World only has very basic gameplay, but I think the characters & villagers in the game have the brightest personalities in the entire series as of yet! I feel the personalities in the AC series have been heavily watered/dumbed down since City Folk.
New Leaf isn't as bad, but I do hope that the next generation of games gives the villagers more distinctive & colorful personalities, wider dialogue, unique quirks etc... especially since the SWITCH as a system is very capable of making the AC much more detailed & lifelike than we've seen before.

i've only ever played new leaf, happy home designer and pocket camp;; i got into it a few years ago when new leaf was out so i never experienced any of the older ones :-( hopefully i will be able to play them in the future though!

I've played a tiny bit of the GameCube version, a bit of Wild World, New Leaf extensively, and that's about it. I want to try playing City Folk at some point but right now my Wii isn't working so that isn't possible.
New Leaf's the only one I really played, though I played a bit of AC on the Gamecube when I was really young. I just sent a letter or two to a few of my cousin's villagers on her save file, so I don't know if I'd consider it actually playing the game. If I ever see a copy of Wild World, then I might just get it, but since I don't have a Wii, I know I'm not gonna be playing City Folk anytime soon.
I started with Wild World, which was also the first game for my new DS lite. A few years later I got City Folk. Unfortunately I've never owned a Gamecube or 3DS, so I never got to play the Original AC or New Leaf, but I played Pocket Camp for a few month after its initial release.

I've played every game except the game cube version of animal crossing. Wild World and New Leaf are my 2 favourites tho, wasn't a massive fan of City Folk because of the wii control.

(In order): CF, NL, WW (I was feeling really nostalgic at the time but I didn't have access to my CF town, so I bought WW and it helped fill a hole), HHD
I never played GC, but I've heard a lot of good things about it.
My first ever AC was Wild World, it came with the DS Lite I got- you were able to choose two games from a list and at the time I was young and hadn't heard of it but I thought it sounded nice and it had "animal" in the name so I got it, and was hooked in no time.
After that I got CF and spent a fair bit of time on it even though it was a family Wii and I didn't have too much time to play. Now I spend all the time I can in NL, and sometimes HHD when I feel like relaxing and making cute rooms!

Wild World was my first ever AC game, and I loved it! ^^ So I was really excited when City Folk came out, but I found it disappointing so I never stuck with it.. But when my dad got me New Leaf three Christmases ago, I loved it so much I played it everyday for two months straight. 
I also played Pocket Camp as soon as it came out, but I stopped playing it.. I’d really love to play the GC version someday! It sounds great. ;7;

Wild world was my first game, I loved it and played it almost every day. I haven't touched it in like a decade and I couldn't even remember my town's name, I've played it recently for nostalgia realising my town's name was based on the town I spend my childhood in. I also have Bill and Chevre in my town, who're also in my town in New leaf which is spooky.
Next was City folk but I couldn't really get into it.. so I sold it. When I heard New leaf was coming out I gave it a chance and it was much better. I did play Pocket camp for a while since it released (I think I'm level 30+ or something) but I stopped playing as it got kinda boring.

Wild World was my first AC game I played and I have played all of the AC games since then. My old best friend is the one who introduced me to the series. Though some days I wished I played AC GameCube, but it's a little too late for that now.

Population Growing
Wild World
City Folk
New Leaf
HHD
Pocket Camp
I played all of those pretty frequently and still own them all except City Folk (my sister took it cuz my Wii broke). Sooo pretty much all of them except for the OG and Amiibo Festival. I don't think it's a loss because spin offs like Amiibo Festival never interested me. HHD was alright but it wasn't traditional AC, of course. I still liked it though.

I have played:
Animal Crossing: Population: Growing! (The GameCube game)
Animal Crossing City Folk
Animal Crossing New Leaf
I really enjoy Animal Crossing New Leaf and I still have affection for the GameCube game since it had its own distinct feel and features and because I played it with a friend in my youth. I absolutely could never get into City Folk.
