What Animal Crossing glitches have you come across?

[Cherebi]

As the title says. ^^

I have come across the glitch where a tree only grows one fruit instead of three.
Also one time Frita asked me to get Bettina for her and when I did Bettinas name changed to Frita, so it looked like she was having a conversation with herself.

One time me and a villager placed a flower in the same location, so they overlapped lol.

Today, as I was starting up my game, the title screen showed Katrina's tent in the main plaza (you know, the screen you get that shows glimpses of your town before you press A). I was actually quite surprised since I had Katrina just two days ago.
But anyway, once I loaded the game, Katrina's tent was nowhere to be seen. Instead I had a camper and Phineas.

So did you people have the digital copy of the game, or the card? I haven't had any weird glitches with my game. Maybe there are more glitches in the downloaded game?

 

[Kildor]

I think there are suppose to be more glitches in the cartridge game than the digital? Since all those NES games always had the glitches where you need to clean the inside or blow on it to fix the glitches. Just my theory though ;/

 

[Cherebi]

The glitches I mentioned were on the digital version, but I know people who have had the fruit glitch on the cartridge version too.

 

[cheezu]

I don't think it matters if you have the downloaded or the cartridge version since, essentially, they're identical games with identical programming - unless your cartridge is glitching due to having some physical issues as kildor22 said. Mine is downloaded too, but this is the first glitch I noticed and I've been playing since November.

That's not a glitch though.

Then what would you classify it as? The game was showing me something that wasn't there when I started up.

 

[Hot]

It didn't happen to me, but a lot of my friends got 'stuck' in my main/private town's rivers and ponds while visiting. ^^

Oh yeah! I remembered something, at the menu screen, I saw roscoe walking, suddenly HE FELL IN A PITFALL. I LOLED. When I quit then played again, he did the EXACT same thing. Fell in a pitfall. So what I did was a dug it up. No more pitfall. Hooray.

It does not show the current day in the game, it just shows what might happen, the game never knows what's gonna happen until it loads the save, which is why you can reset for campers, katrina, redd, who moves in, where villagers move in, etc.

 

[cheezu]

Well, when Red was visiting a few weeks ago, I saw him on the title screen and he was there upon starting the game.

Yeah, but it's just coincidence, I'm glad it is the way it is though, since I like resetting for villager plots, and campers.

 

[Yui Z]

My friend visited and I was standing outside of the train station and I ended up standing on their head when they stepped outside xD I have a picture somewhere I think.. I'll try and find it.

 

[Alienfish]

When you are at 8 villagers, moving in a 9th someone else might move out which is NOT supposed to happen. the ****

 

[Splinter]

I talked to Octavian until he told me he has other stuff to think about so leave him alone, then I went in Re-Tail and he came in, still doing the "lost in thought" animation but without the thought bubble. When I talked to him his voice was really deep sounding, much more so than usual, it was really odd.

Another time, my game encountered an error and the whole system had to restart after I'd saved one of my designs at the Able Sisters.

Other than that I haven't really encountered any.

 

[Azy]

There is a way to walk in the rivers in your town, Mary (the user) showed me and I don't remember exactly how to do this.

 

[Ponyu]

Once, I was in Re-Tail and a villager came in (Marina), and all the while she was dancing with the little happy musical note emotion. After some time, it wore off. I guess it's not really a glitch, she was probably dancing outside and was then randomly chosen to enter Re-Tail.

 

[harvington]

not too exciting of a glitch (not even sure if it counts) but if you pay off your mortgage before you talk to tom nook in order for him to tell you your mortgage, he goes through the normal speech but says your remaining balance is 0 bells and asks you to pay it off lol. but then you can speak to him immediately again and he congratulates you on paying it.
