Is Animal Crossing: Wild World Still Worth Playing in 2024?

[@gmersdelight]

What was your favorite memory from playing Animal Crossing: Wild World? Did you have a favorite villager or a special way you customized your town?🌳✨

Only older Animal Crossing give that sense of moving to a small town with a small yet "alive" community. Villagers sometime are rude, others are funny, sometime they are way too much into gossip in drama. They challenge you. And that makes them feel more real. My favorite memories? Playing it with my wife by my side. And about the customization, I usually try to differienciate zones using the trees, flowers, and some simple designs like some brick tiles to create some paths and and separate locations. By no means I think Wild World is the best one. But the art style, the simplicity, and the funny dialogue of the villagers and NPCs is what makes this game my favourite to revisit.

@@professorhikaru3939 Fully agreed! The older AC games do have a very unique feeling that has seemingly been lost in more modern iterations. It almost feels like Nintendo has opted to remove lots of the characteristics of many of the NPCs in favor of more traditionally family friendly designs. Not necessarily a bad approach, but something has been lost in the process.

Love the DS overlay! 🥺 Animal Crossing will forever be one of the cutest and coziest games 💓

[@gmersdelight]

Thank you for noticing! And I fully agree, there's nothing like some Animal Crossing while kicking back and relaxing :)

I love wild world

[@kyladurie]

only sad part is if you restart your town, you can't get Nookingtons because the servers have been shut down 😔 you had to have a friend buy something for the final upgrade

[@gmersdelight]

Unfortunately correct :/ Though I presume with some tinkering you could enable online play. Even then it remains difficult, but I guess it could be done.

​@@gmersdelightyou just need to connect your DS to an Wifi connection with WAP security type ( or without Password ) and change the DNS to the Wiimmfi DNS. You can play DS/Wii games online again with it

@@barracadoseuze4213 That's very helpful, thanks a lot! Wish I could pin your comment.

I was never able to connect to NWC back in the day, but I was still able to get Nookingtons. You just have to play with a friend over local wireless multiplayer, internet conectivity wasn't required for that.

there's an offline nokingtons patch

I’ve played wild world for about 6 months now in 2024! So cute and actually simple compared to new horizons lol

[@gmersdelight]

I know, right? It really hasn't lost any of its charm and I find it quite relaxing, even today :D
