[King Dorado]

In ACNL, you can time-travel backwards as far as you wish, and the game will only treat it as a single day for purposes of determining changes in your town (such as weeds, flowers, bed-head, and any villagers' move-out schedule...)

Even though you can't see it in game, the other side of the mayor's desk in acnl looks like this:

If you have the silver axe in ACNL, you will create a special stump design on every tree you cut down, but when you use a golden axe, it will be random if you get a special stump design

It's not in game but acnl's isabelle has her own twitter account that's commissioned by nintendo

ACNL factoid re Katrina: she will only sell you one of her two lucky items (celebration hat, and tingle hood) IF your fortune is bad luck for the day, AND you don't have one of her standard recommended clothing items for that day in your pockets, AND if you have 10k IGB on you. (she charges 10k bells for each item, even though they are much cheaper to re-order at TT Emporium once youve got them catalogued).

Gracie and Saharah are actually male in the Japanese version of acnl Going to bed now, good luck everyone!

ACNL factoid/tip:

contrary to popular belief, the best way to make money profit selling royal crowns, isn't selling them at recycle when they're on special. (its true the sales price then would be 600k IGB, nothjing to sneeze at). The best way to make money off those royal croans is to hold out until a lazy villager camps out in your town, and then sell to them in their "what did i eat" game for 1.1 to 1.4 Million bells!! In the "what did i eat game" the lazies will pay you four to five times the recycle shop price for your items! this especially comes in handy if somebody wants to pay you for a trade by using royal crowns as currency. You credit them 300k IGB for each royal crown they give you (standard recycle shop price). Then when the lazy camper eventually arrives, you sell all your hoarded royal crowns for 1.2M+ IGB each-- youve just quadrupled your money!! (better keep your pockets empty when you see the lazy except for that crown, youre gonna need the room for bell bags...)

ACNL if you blow into the 3ds mic while holding a pinwheel or dandelion puff your character will blow on it. I just wanted to post that because it really confused me the first time it happened lol (I wasn't blowing on the mic, I just spoke loudly/laughed too close to it)

There is this glitch where you can go into the river! You have to have a tweeter to do this, you will also need more than one person. So what you do is you stand by the river and keep on tweeting the tweeter repeatedly then other people push you and eventually you will go in! Don't worry, it is easy to come back out again! Just walk out of the river! XD Sorry, it really isn't a tip as such aha

I'm not sure if this is what you mean buut....

A lot of people think Tom Nook is just a racoon, but he is in fact a tanuki, a Japanese dog racoon. (They're not very related to an actual racoon, though).

Spoiler: Explanation on how tanuki are depicted as mythical if you're even interested xD

The subspecies of raccoon dog native to Japan is known as the tanuki. In addition to being a real animal, tanuki are also found throughout Japanese folklore as mystical, shape-shifting spirits called Bake-danuki.

Bake-danuki, which literally means "monster raccoon dog," belong to a class of Japanese spirit monsters called the*yōkai. While most yōkai have a tendency for outright malevolence, the bake-danuki has shed this frightening reputation over the past few centuries in favor of a more harmless, jovial lifestyle focused on bestowing humans with good fortune and prosperity.

Today, the furry, fun-loving scamp is depicted with a bulbous belly, massive scrotum and a host of goofy facial expressions. The items he carries may vary, but it's most common to see him clutching a sake flask and a promissory note of unpaid bills.

Believe it or not, the mythical tanuki's exaggerated scrotum has nothing to do with male virility or sexual over-indulgence.

The origin of this defining characteristic dates back to 19th century, when metal workers wrapped gold in tanuki skin before hammering it into gold leaf. The strength of the tanuki's skin was so great that, according to legend, a tiny piece of gold could be hammered thin enough to stretch across eight tatami mats.

Because the Japanese terms for a small ball of gold ("kin no tama") and testicles ("kintama") are so phonetically similar, the image of a tanuki with a gigantic testicular region is now associated with good fortune and stretching one's money.

There's things about unpaid bills and money in that explanation, so you can see why Tom is nicknamed "Tanooki" ;D (Tom Nook; Tomnooki; Tanooki).

Tanuki have also been thought to be able to transform leaves into money, like how leaves turn into furniture in the game.

In acnl Phyllis (Pelly's sister who takes the night shift at the Post Office), does not celebrate with you when you pay off your debt at the ABD machine, whereas pelly claps when you pay it off
