So for you guys getting AC:NL at midnight, what do you plan on doing if all the shops are closed at night? Does the clock change trick still work?

It's also the only time I'm going to let myself time travel, and it's just so I can make sure I get at least one villager I like (there are a lot I like)

Giantbomb has their quicklook up for Animal Crossings: http://www.giantbomb.com/videos/quick-look-animal-crossing-new-leaf/2300-7464/ I know they are kind of different games, but I got burnt out on Harvest Moon 3DS and am not looking forward to this as much as I thought. I kind of hope this quicklook and goon hype changes my mind.

midnight eastern or pacific or moon time? I'm still debating whether I want this game or not. I haven't played any animal crossings before and I'm not sure the concept really appeals to me. Someone give me a video that says "this is animal crossing" so I can see if the gameplay or lack thereof will work for me.

That quick look is incredibly representative because gently caress all happens in it, but they're all very excited about it. That's Animal Crossing, that's why it owns.

In AC:NL you can set your town such that all your townfolk are early risers, night owls, etc. So you can definitely play it without the need to "cheat" if you want to have all the shops stay open through the night and have the citizens sleep still noon. College town!

Doesn't that negate the use of other ordinances? Pretty lovely for people who just need the game to work for their schedule.

uPen posted:I imagine you could just change the clock on your 3DS? Not necessary! You have the option to change what time it is before you jump into hanging out around your town. After you select your town, Shizue (or maybe they changed her name for the English version-- your secretary) confirms the date and time for you. If it's wrong (or even if it's not, I guess), you can just go ahead and change it. If you want it to fit your schedule better, just set it back or ahead a few hours and never worry about it again.

So what's the deal with saves on the digital version of AC? Are they on the system and stuck on my current 3ds forever or on the SD card and I will be able to move it in the future? vvv okay that's really not as bad as people were making it sound. Thanks. Awesome! fucked around with this message at 03:26 on Jun 9, 2013 |

They're on the SD card like all the other game saves would be. The only weird thing about Animal Crossing's save is that whenever you save something in the game, it creates a new ID for that save so if you try to reload from an old one (like to have multiple towns or whatever) it will render the newer one unusable. So you can just have one save at a time on any system. Otherwise, it behaves exactly the same way as all the other game saves.

3DS XLs are on sale this week at Best Buy for 179.99. Pre-owned games are also Buy One Get One 50% off so you may get lucky.

I picked up Animal Crossing at Target (after they insisted that new video games go out on Tuesday, I eventually talked them into checking in the computer for the street date. Maxed out on shame for one week, now). Since I already have platinum this year, would it make more sense to wait until after July 1st to register the code, though? Will I still get the relatively high amount of coins (it's at 50) for registering it, at that point? What's the time limit on the 'new release bonus'? Thanks

So I want to take advantage of that Best Buy used sale for my new XL; already have Mario 3D and Fire Emblem, with DKC ordered from that Newegg sale...definitely want to pick up Star Fox, curious about Code of Princess/Shinobi. Anyone actually own either one? I've read and watched reviews on both but I'm still iffy on them since they don't get much attention.
