Something Interesting About Lyle

[Captain James]

So the other day I asked Lyle what's new, and he talked a bit about Tom Nook and K.K. Slider, but when I talked to him again, I learned this

What you are seeing, while *cough* it's not in the best quality, sorry *cough* is real

This means Lyle had at least two daughters
What does this mean for the future of Animal Crossing?

Thank you all for the help with the picture, but I was hoping you'd discuss the new information
But whatever I got too much free time anyway

If you want better quality, you can just do what I do. Just take a picture, go to the internet icon on your ds, I just send the pictures to myself through email, and then I download them from my computer

^ but what e-mail service even works on the 3DS browser? the 2 I used to use, one is now only for people that pay and the other... just doesn't work.
apologies, as that really has no relevance to the topic, but I'm curious.

that's interesting though. I hope we get to see them someday in game.

Try uploading the picture to Miiverse (as a journal entry or photo album.), then going on Miiverse on your phone or computer and downloading it (you'd needa be signed in on the computer/phone to see the album, I think)?

I asked Lyle what was new and he talked about the Able Sisters.

 

[Jackfrost]

Well I just used gmail and sent them to myself so I could download them of my computer. It actually works pretty good for me

 

[That Marshal Fangirl]

Huh. Lottie has cousins?

 

[Flare]

I remember he talked with Tom Nook on how the nooklings are growing up, and then how the Able Sisters would have arguments in the past.

i apologize for the slight irrelevance, but this in response to the other replies, not the original post!
if you take a picture of the screen using the DS itself with L + R, you can just put your SD card directly into a computer and copy it into existence on the computer. the 3DS camera roll will be in the folder labeled "DCIM." mine is broken down into several sub-folders. i do not know what they are broken down according to, but they are all in chronological order.

0: maybe he scammed us in wild world for his family

When he mentions Sable, Tom Nook blushes (at least I remember that happening). Though this is because Tom Nook and Sable had a crush on each other when they were younger which Sable mentions to the player in Wild World and City Folk if the player befriends her so it's nothing too special, just something that I noticed.

What happened to his wife?

They weren't married. They just had a crush on each other.

[SPOILERS!!]

In January, Sable will get depressed, much to Mabel's bewilderment. Eventually, after talking to Sable enough during the month, she reveals a huge secret; she and Tom Nook were best friends before he moved to the city. This is what she says:
"Well, the first letter I got from him arrived at just around this time of year... The other day, before bed, I pulled that letter out... and just looked at it. Tee hee! It was adorable! Sure, the handwriting was a little messy, but... You could hear his determination in every word of that letter... Sweet, young Tom Nook... His call to arms, his ethos, was "Dreams before money!" He was so pure that people wondered if he'd survive this crazy old world. I did too. Every night before falling asleep, I would wish him... 'Please keep Tom Nook's pure spirit protected," I'd whisper in the darkness. "Keep him safe from the apathy that breeds in the alleys of the big city...'"
I don't know why I've told you so much about Tom Nook and I... All those memories of our shared youth must bore you. Please forgive me. [ player chooses "Tell Me More!"] ...Ohh, OK, if you insist!
The Tom Nook that left for the big city... He sent me letters quite frequently, actually. One day, I received a wooden box, not a letter. When I opened it, I was quite astonished!
[player chooses "A ring?!"] Oh goodness, no! Are you kidding?! PLAYER NAME, I think you've been watching too many made-for-TV movies! ...Ohh, I'm so sorry. Heh, I didn't mean to snap. That just took me off guard.
No, inside the box, there was a pair of fancy, burnt-orange colored... Scissors. Incredibly strong and sharp scissors! The finest scissors I'd ever laid eyes on. The enclosed letter said, "Happy birthday, Sable!" So...sweet... At the time, I was so busy that I'd even forgotten it was my birthday. To think Tom Nook had remembered it... I'm sure life was hard for Tom Nook in the city during that time... I know his job paid poorly, so for him to buy those scissors for me... When I think about it, it makes me so happy that I cry!
Oh really, PLAYER NAME... You want to hear my memories again? I'm warning you, not all my memories are fond ones you know... [player chooses "Really?"]
Well, we shared a lot of good times, Tom Nook and I. Before there was an observatory in dear old TOWN NAME... We used to climb up the roof when we wanted to look at the stars... Ohh, yes! We even made constellations together, I remember! I made one called the "Star Shirt." Tom Nook's looked like one of those old-time markets. He called it... "The Farmer's Market Bargain Bin Constellation." Ohh that takes me back...
[player chooses "Nice story"] Yes, it is... Shortly after that, Tom Nook moved to the big city... Yes, he left to chase his dreams... When he returned to TOWN NAME, he came back a totally different soul... I still believe that... if he had just clung to those sweet memories like I do... he would have shaken off the heartsickness of those city years... Memories can be sad, but they can also save you..."

That's really depressing. If only we could patch up their friendship I feel so bad for Sable. But this story brings a whole new depth to the game.

I feel bad for both Sable and Tom Nook (he also became depressed which is why he moved back to the town, away from the City). It's probably one of the darkest moments in the entire series.

ACNL on the Switch is finally confirmed! Yaya! XD

 

[That Marshal Fangirl]

Aww. They should really get Sable and Tom Nook together, if they have such strong feelings for each other.

 

[galaxyp]

Oh my god I hope we get to see his daughter in a future game or update!
I think Lottie is just too precious and adorable, I would love to see more characters like her!
