Got my second ds...those with two to go between towns and or cycle questions

[Classygirl]

Ok my fianc? got me a special edition XL looks like a game boy on cover..anyway I am finishing up my final dream town old ds all cart only towns but now that I have the ability to go between my cart towns...I have a blank copy to hold movers or bells ect to get who I want together. Anyone who has two machines and multi cart towns have advice. I know the data stays mostly on cart.,about moving my own villagers together or other things to know when using two machines. I feel a little lost.

I suppose I set it up and do that after I finish town working on on old one to finish, don't have room to keep both always charging so plug in and out it's a little overwhelming but am sure will become second nature..I suppose when I finish current town with dreams almost done I make sure all towns visit someone with ten clear voids the new disc for moving will need cleared out so I can move my old ones around and such and pick up last couple dreams.

Whole purpose aside move ability between cart towns was start cycle town cart...am assuming that cart should only be used on one machine due to any voids may come...I didn't think I'd feel overwhelmed when it came but I need to finish my current town then start moving between once full thats one task and cart will be to move from my own towns to others and the new and the second will be the cycle town assuming use old ds for that not sure.

Anyone else had multi cart towns and get a second ds to go between them and rearrange some villagers to finish dream towns that couldn't be done with one, transfer bells ect, and for cycling...any tips. Right now finishing last already in progress town move in and outs then two blanks one to transfer around between pick up last few dreams and one to cycle. Two machines happy but with multi carts and moving around...anyone feel overwhelmed when they got a second machine also once set all up the cycle I guess should stay used on new just glad to be almost ready setting that up finishing last in progress own town then the one to move animals...yes it seems overwhelming.

Anyone else overwhelmed when they did this...I know many have multi towns and machines so can go between move own villagers or hold from cycle move in and out in a way you can't yourself with one. Also cycle town ready for that after get the hang am assuming am not alone in the several towns got second ds to reorder things and cycle and play so any tips or at least if you felt overwhelmed at first putting carts in new machine synching times moving between towns then the cycle part should be easy but the finishing up with two seems a task....maybe it's just me overwhelmed when got second machine and realized had to move around from all towns once last done the cycle part should be easier it's the ordering actual playing between the two and the extra town to move villagers around so am trying to hurry and get my last town done but maybe new cart needs rearranged could help.

I am sure it will become second nature but am used to multi towns on carts one machine never interacted and then cycle but new machine means new interaction features I guess you play both visit your own towns..after last one is done or during will be figuring it out then focusing on cycle for a while and play but it seemed a good way to go between own towns...how many people have two machines....?

Lucky you!! You are going to enjoy having two consoles, so much.

I bought a second 3DS XL and a second ACNL cartridge last May and it has been great. I have two towns, one on each. My human characters visit back and forth every day. It's really not so overwhelming once you get used to it. Just take one step at a time and enjoy.

My husband bought a good power bar so I could plug in both systems. The battery will drain goes low if you wifi a lot.
With the bonus town you could use it for weeding and get your players in to get their weeding badges. TT to get fish or bugs that they still need.
Good place to buy or sell turnips. If one of your towns has a high turnip price TT to Sunday in your bonus town. Open your gates and get a player to come over with her shovel. While the bonus town buys dig holes around Joan so she can't get out. Sometimes you can get really lucky and she can't move. Bonus town fills their locker and than you can go to the town and sell them.
Or better you can drop them on the ground for a player that still needs to get the turnip badge. All the money goes to the badge for that player. The money from buying doesn't get removed because she didn't buy them. Got all 3 badges in one night.

Moving money can be a pain. You could put an item up for sale at retail for 9999k and get another player to buy it.
Or you could as your fiance to help you move the money. That would go very quickly. Keep moving the 100 million bells to different players and you'll have ABM in all of your houses.

When I added more towns I made them easy going towns or harvest towns. My main town is the most important one.
It gets played a lot and than I quickly check the others. Harvest towns I have the villagers locked in and they can't move. I just never speak to them, live in a tent and haven't sat at the mayor desk. I've had one for over a year and no one has moved.
