TBT is celebrating the start of the Year of the Horse! Our latest event, TBT's Lunar New Year for 2026, is now underway! Meanwhile, we invite you to share your feedback for the forum in the February 2026 Survey. Thank you!
I like Skye and passed on her because even though I like her I really didn't want any wolves or dogs on my island. I don't regret passing on her though! I also passed on Fauna once. Those were the two most notable ones I think.
A lion named Rex. I just didn’t like his look. I felt bad though lol
When I first started I invited three people and the fourth was a cute penguin but it was too late!
Yes but not many, as I have had exceedingly bad luck finding anybody I like on the islands. Notably though I passed on:
-Chester (because I have him in NL)
-Peewee (my bff but I also have him in NL)
-Ike (because I was looking for Grizzly, huge mistake, thankfully amiibos exist )
-Rocco (one of my top favs in City Folk)
-Skye (she’s so cute but I just don’t like the wolves)
-Jambette (queen)
i've passed up rosie, melba, lucky, bangle, marina, zucker, erik, rolf, bianca, dom (i don't really like him tbh, but i know he's pretty popular), and merengue :''')
I've only ever went island hopping once, and of the trips I had taken, none of the villagers I saw were my ideal types. So, fortunately(?) no, I guess.
Letting Marina go hurt. I wanted poor Zucker to have an octopus friend, but alas...the Japanese aesthetic of my town is uncompromising, and 10 slots is a brutal limit for a cast of 391.
Not yet but i am going through a dilemma right now that is kinda related. I am starting a new island and will have to pick starters with generic houses, but i cant decide if i should invite my dreamies and keep them despite the plain furniture or skip over them if i find them, and just take someone else and wait for them for weeks to move out.
Cheri's house is lovely which is making this harder for me.
I passed up on Octavian (twice), Kyle, Bella, Zucker, Gayle, & Eugene... I really like them all but they're not part of my dreamie lineup in AC:NH so that's kinda painful but it is what it is lol
I've done quite a bit over 1000 tickets searching for villagers, and passed on quite a few that I really like (Nintendo please give us 15 villager slots). Most of them were during my Lucky hunt, who I finally found recently. Here are some that I passed who I really like:
Poppy (Passed her 3 times, but now I have her)
Fang
Chief
Goldie
Lolly and Punchy
Biskit
I'll probably end up getting these villagers at some point as I'm cycling villagers after I get their framed photos.
