Stupid things you did as a newb?

[Wolfy]

I would horde my fossils, bugs, and fish because I didn't want to give them to the museum. I'm not quite sure why I did that :0

I ate the fruits Isabelle gave me and just a little while later, I sold sloppy furniture to Reese thinking I could reorder when I had a spare room.

I sold my perfect peach, but kind players here gave me some and now I have bunches. In WW, my first Animal Crossing game, I couldn't figure out how to fish xD

 

[Jack1605]

In city folk it took me like half an hour to figure out how to move LOL

 

[Piptocrossing]

in the first couple of days place my campsite and police station.
I still didn't get the feel of the map and how I wanted paths, so when I started to landscape there was a lot of trouble for me to work around them. Now I love my campsite placement, and the police station is in an ok spot.

In WW I could not figure out how to make Nook buy pears from me so that I could make money and play the game. Seriously. Since I could not figure that out, I put the game in a drawer and forgot about it. About a year later my kid told me I had to do the "tasks" he gave me ( go talk to the villagers, etc. ) Duh!!! All I had to do was talk to the villagers, do some deliveries and then he let me go as an employee and would buy my pears! lol.

In NL I chose a map with three ponds. Sounded like a good idea at the time, but it made it hard to place PWPs. The upper part of my map seems really cramped.

I accidentally hit one of my villagers several times with my bug net. She was all hurt and walked away after telling me she hadn't thought I was like that and that she didn't feel like talking now. I was trying to press A to talk to her.

I played the Gamecube Animal Crossing before I could read. Naturally, it was hard to function since most of the game involves reading. I accidentally made my character a boy since I couldn't read when Rover asked my gender, and it took me 3 years to realize what I had done. I didn't realize it until I restarted my game and told Rover I was a girl, and then I noticed that my new character looked different than my old character!

 

[Manah]

Yay, I'm not the only one who sold her first perfect fruit

 

[Jibby]

Yay, I'm not the only one who sold her first perfect fruit

Nope xD
I feel really stupid now. I've had like 5 perfect apples and sold them all >.>

 

[Stitched]

sold perfect fruit because WHOA 600 BELLS THAT'S A LOT OF MONEY
Planted trees errywhere and then got the pleasure of cutting them all down and being labeled as a stump-maker. :c

 

[kyasarin]

I ate my only perfect fruit. Good thing my sister knew and told me to reset it so I got it back eventually.

 

[MadisonCrossing]

I actually don't really remember much I regret, except I played way too much the very first day I got New Leaf. I got online for really no reason at all. But I guess that's what happens when you wait years for a game you love! It was all worth the wait!

 

[autumnleavesxo]

Like a lot of others, I sold my perfect fruit instead of planting it I also didn't know I could choose another map layout, so stuck with my first one, but I had fab starting villagers so it didn't matter so much

 

[irisubunny]

this is something i did in WW, but i guess it still counts considering i was a newb lol, but i gave my rare coelacanth to buck. i got 510 bells in return for it. i'm still hitting myself in the head over that.

 

[goey0614]

I...ate...my...very...1st...perfect...cherry ['_'] and i think i was too hungry on that time maybe XD haha

I'm not proud of this, but it took me a while to figure out how to move on the 3ds too, and I played CF. I had to watch several youtube videos before it dawned on me that you had to use the circle pad I kept using the + pad (or whatever it's called), because I figured that they were arrows. I had apparently forgotten everything I knew about Nintendo devices.

Also sold my first perfect fruit.
