Back in Wild World, my best friend was definetely Joey, he was the first villager I introduced myself to and I loved how he was always talking about food.. But Rod and Pecan are definetely up there as well!
In City Folk, Simon was easily my best friend.. He was the only one of my original villagers I considered keeping forever.. I'd never had a monkey before 'cos I never unlocked them in WW, and he was just so sweet
In New Leaf, it's easily Sydney, she's quickly become my favourite villager of all time, pushing Joey back slightly, but she's so epic, and she's always so nice to everyone.. Plus she's purple, what more needs to be said
I remember getting the game for my birthday and we became best best friends. I got his picture pretty quickly actually. When he moved away, I was devastated.
Fang was my first ever real friend in Animal Crossing. I've been waiting to re-unite with him for over 9 years now, and finally got to do so by a nice person who gave him away. While I love all my animals, Fang and Gaston(who filled that empty void after Fang never came to my WW game) are always going to be my absolute favorites.
Umm I don't remember who was the exact first. It was probably between poncho, goldie, and peanut. I just remember always talking to them a lot in my wild world game.
In WW, I don't know. Though I really wish I could remember.
I can recall having Ruby, Butch, Nan, Lily, and Cyrano in my town, so it might've been one of them. Given each of their personalities, I can probably narrow it down to either Nan or Lily.
In NL, it was Pierce. Not really sure what drew me to him. Perhaps it was his so-called "animal magnetism", haha.
Goose was my first friend in City Folk (my first AC)
Bill was my best friend though. I have them both in NL now, and Goose has sadly lost his novelty in this game... I will probably sadly get rid of him someday. He's not the same to me now as he was in CF.
Rizzo in Population Growing. He wasn't in my own copy but a friend's. My friend hated him, so I started liking him out of spite. Then he became my best buddy. He's still a favorite of mine now too!
Stiches. He was the first villager in my WW town and I loved talking to him. When he moved out without a goodbye he literally broke my heart. I was so happy when I got him in my NL town. <3
My first friend was Mint from Population Growing. I used to send her long letters all of the time about how happy I was that we were friends, and she would send angry letters back letting me know she had no idea what I was saying.
