This might sound silly, but I give myself goosebumps when I think about the opening music of AC:WW. All other AC menu music has a “let’s get to work” vibe. But WW’s opening music had this sunset/sunrise-type calmness to it. Many early mornings and late nights started with that music 😌
 
The original gamecube version, but also played wild world, new leaf, new horizons, and very little of city folk.
 
My first Animal Crossing game was Animal Crossing for the GameCube. I would play it for hours on end. When I got a DS Lite, I would then play Wild World for hours. I played a little of City Folk - I felt it was too much of a copy of Wild World with an added city, so I didn't care for it as much. It was difficult for me to play with the Wii-Motes - gameplay was frustrating for me. Then, New Leaf came out, and I logged over one thousand hours between 2013 and 2019. Since March 2020, I have logged over nine hundred hours in New Horizons.
 
Mine was new leaf, then wild world, then the original, then let's go to the city (aka city folk) then new horizons
 
Mine was technically Wild World, but I did not really play it much as in all I did was dig up fossils and gyroids lol. I don't think I really understood the point of the game at the time, but even that was enough to give me a temporary escape from problems at home. I really got invested when Pocket Camp came out pouring a lot of time into it, but ever since New Horizons came out I haven't touched it much. I'm hoping to pick up New Leaf and replay my WW game :D
 
Wild World! I got it for Christmas that year. I was originally interested in GC, one of my friends used to talk about it and I tried playing it at at her house because it looked cool, but I never had a GameCube so I couldn't play it until I got a Wii.
 
Wild World, I got it a few months after it was first released and played it constantly for a very long time, I loved meeting new villagers and expanding my home and spent many hours playing hide-and-seek with friends around each others towns.
 
my first animal crossing game was the GameCube one. sometimes I miss how rude the villagers used to be. It’s much nicer trying to build a relationship with the villagers than to have all of them be so nice to you from the get go, even if they did paint my roof a random color and take all my bells. It was just more natural that way and their insults made me chuckle.
 
My first Animal Crossing game was the GameCube game. I first saw it back in 2002 when I went to visit a friend; they were playing it when I arrived to their house. I subsequently got my own copy so we could play together.
 
i've been playing since gamecube, which got me into the franchise. then i played wild world, never played city folk, playing new leaf and now am playing new horizons.

i also played some of pocket camp, but i wasn't vibing with it. it didn't really interest me at all so once my old phone i was playign on it broke i never bothered to try it again.

I played city folk a lot last year and I can say that the game is MUCH better to play when you're using the nunchuck instead of just the wii remote, that way your movement can be a lot more precise and it's a lot easier to catch bugs (especially bees), so if you ever think of giving it another chance I suggest using the nunchuck
 
Started on Wild World! Have played the original after that, though
 
city folk when i was 5, never got into it tho because i didnt know what to do and rover scared me too much lol
 
Animal Crossing for the GameCube was my first. I was a young child very fascinated with the theme of the game.
I struggled with chronic illness as a child, so it helped with the lonely feeling I’d get when I was too sick to move around much.

I’ve played every title and it’s my favorite franchise. ☺️
 
wild world! i never owned it myself, but since i was 7 years old i was playing it at the local youth club i went to all the time. i cant say i understood a thing- never even passed the tutorial, but i had a blast! it made me want to buy new leaf when i first upgraded to a 3dsxl from my dsi, and i put like 600+ hours into that!! its had such an incredible impact on my life :,]

+ even if nobodys voted it yet, i feel sorry for the poor soul whos first game was amiibo festival </3
(because there's bound to be one out there somewhere)
