How long have you been playing ACNL?
- Thread starter kylie32123
- Start date
3 years! (Since Jan. 2014)
I would have bought ACNL at launch, but I was so disappointed with City Folk (because of the horrible controls) that I didn't bother with ACNL until Dec. 2013, when I bought myself a LoZ 3DS and ACNL. I started the game that January, and have only taken two breaks: once out of disgust when Mallary--my all-time favorite AC villager--moved out*, and then again when the WA update hit. I was afraid to update in case of random corruption.
*Mallary moved into Goblin and has her own pond, so that ended well.

Since American Release Date. I really was that hyped. The best hype I ever had since that last DLC Pack in Mario Kart 8. Soon for MK8 Deluxe if more cool stuff comes out.
Ever since it was released in Europe, I remember asking my mum to go and pick it up for me because I was still in school and luckily it came out on the Friday so not only was it a nice thing to come home to but I also got to play it all weekend with my internet friends and my friend from school. c:

June 2013. And I've gotten a new town pretty much every year since I started playing NL, lol.
I got it on the day it came out in the UK. I pre ordered it from amazon so it'd come the same day it was released. I remember that day exactly haha, I literally ran home from school because I was so excited to play. Needless to say it was an awesome day. It was also the reason I got a 3DS. I basically had no other 3DS games except ACNL for a long while haha.

Sometimes I'll take a break for a few montjs then create a new town, but I've been playing since it first came out Hard to believe it's been so long already!

Seven, Seven--
I started my first town in early 2014. New Leaf was the first game I played, but honestly, if not for the fact everyone's told me New Leaf is far superior to Wild World, I'd probably buy and play it. I'm just torn about whether or not I should bother. I'm a bit of a graphics snob... To me it's like going back to Pokemon Heart Gold after playing Pokemon Y or Moon...

a few months after it came out (september??? i cant remember some time in fall 2013)
but all my goddamn towns say i started in 2016 or 2017 because i reset all the time, so in my newest town i just set the date to september 2013 when i arrived in town. when the next game comes out there is no way im resetting the amount of times i did in nl.

Only since May 2015. I've been addicted ever since, but I really wish I'd gotten into it sooner!
I bought my copy at some point in 2013. It definitely wasn't as soon as the game was released, but probably a few months later.
