you know the rareiest fish you talked about i got it while i was fishing on my beach on relax island it was a sunny day and i didnt have animal crossing for that long

[@drcovidanimations]

I like it

Thanks! 😄

How do you sit?

the ac also affects clothes. my character is wearing a My Melody Dress and i had a fan on in the house and heard a swooshing noise and it was coming from the dress blowing! i was like 😯

[@RetroRaconteur]

Right?! Been waiting on that for a while now. Surprised they haven't added it yet.

Tip: have your net next to your axe so if you’re chopping down a tree and get attacked by wasps you can easily swap to your net and catch them

[@RetroRaconteur]

Good one!

[@corator98k97]

I know

[@pmgmnzn]

Or u can just shake the tree first (while holding your net) before chopping it.

[@limediamond4595]

@@pmgmnzn for an entire island/mystery island? That’s gonna take way too long

[@ElizaHamilton1780]

Better yet: Have your net in your hand and shake the tree first. If no wasp jet falls, great! Use the axe.

[@augustskies09]

I’m not sure if you mentioned this, but if you have a magic-circle flooring with the candle wallpaper (with the room lights off), as soon as you step in the room you’ll hear some beaming sounds and the floor will glow and shoot up beams

[@enderislost4042]

I personally love how the catch quotes change depending on sunny or rainy weather (not sure if it works on every critter tho) the squid as an ex will be something like "does it not go "bloop" ?" (idk the exact phrase anymore) when sunny and "I had an inkling it might" when rainy unimportant but a fun easter egg nonetheless

1:38 There is nothing wrong with your television set. Do not attempt to adjust the picture. We are controlling the transmission. We will control the horizontal. We will control the vertical. We can change the focus to a soft blur or sharpen it to crystal clarity. For the next hour, sit quietly and we will control all that you see and hear.

[@Chubby_Bub]

The cool thing about the AC is that it actually has a direction of breeze, if you use the rotating fan only plants right in front of the face will blow!

[@adorkablealien9232]

i noticed this when i put a balloon in front of my fan was great seeing hat little detail

[@egosumpitonisa]

In "animal crossing wild world" there was a UFO that showed up in the sky from time to time and you had to take it down with a slingshot. And then an alien bird would show up. I thought the "alien invasion" thing was going to be a reference to that, but nope. It's wayyyyyy spookier.

[@abbie8664]

Yes I remember this!!!

That moment when you calmly catch a coelacanth, donate it to the museum after taking a few pictures with it, and name it Gary...all before realizing it's a super-rare fish. XD

[@RetroRaconteur]

😆😆😆 You still did the right thing by donating, imo!

[@Richiko06]

Ikr I want so badly to catch a betta fish myself

[@boyfries5080]

This isnt too big of a secret but when the hour changes the fountain item's water does something neat. I just found that out today while decorating my island and just thought to share it.

[@Scrabbledat]

I like to use the wall fan cause it blows plants around no matter where they are in the room

[@RetroRaconteur]

Very cool!

[@jocelyncordeiro4870]

Another way to "fall in a hole" is to dig a hole next to a river, cross the river to the other side, and use the vaulting pole back across and aim for the hole.

[@RogueT-Rex8468]

Discovered that by accident.

[@antonioseveridesedits3169]

in the first video

[@personafanatic4597]

tip: talk to the Able sister at the sewing machine several days in a row and she'll stop dismissing you and greet you in a friendly manner afterwards + give you some rare designs. tip: go to Brewster's shop often enough and he'll stop you before you leave to give you gifts (coffee beans, a grinder, etc.) tip: meteor showers happen at least once a month toward the end of the month so check the weather within the last few days to see if there's a chance of one happening

[@SP4C1AL_]

How to check weather?!?

[@LegoNinjagoFan1233]

Fun fact: the UFO from 3:33 AM can be crafted!

[@RetroRaconteur]

Hahaha. For me, it was my son. He's caught a ton of them. I've caught a few, but not as many as he has.

[@赤ちゃん-z3w]

Well, the coelacanth can only be captured when it's raining at any hour of the day, all year but it was still a good fact, good to know!

[@moomoorose183]

The piranha in the museum follows you : ) The ants crawl out of the cage :O (if you don’t have flys donated yet, you’ll see they are after a cup of tea with sugar cubes, but the fly cage covers it once you donate the fly.)

[@liinaaax]

Even if you have a fan that oscillates and youre wearing a dress, your dress will blow around too

[@RetroRaconteur]

Very cool!

[@LunaMizuki8806]

Here's one for you I just found out. If you go into the fossil section of the museum and go to the room where they have the line up of types of animals, if you stand in the empty spot at the end next to the monkey, a light will illuminate above you.

[@titaniccookie7691]

RetroRaconteur: the elusive coelacanth, which is one of the rarest fish in the whole game me: *nervously remembers how I caught 3 in a 2 week time period once, and even caught one yesterday*

[@paigelawson2249]

I caught 2 in a row once whilst it was raining and only found out it was rare now, I always get them!

I went to my friend’s island today and that’s how I found out about the monster statue able to breath fire lol and I also found out about the Able Sisters one today as well after leaving the store to find it was closed and saw it was 20 minutes past closing time.

Some of the display fossils have interactions too. At least one scull opens and closes its mouth if you press A while facing it.

I just recently started playing a few months ago, and I had already heard that the able sisters wouldn’t kick me out, but I fell asleep while my character was inside the able sisters. I found out that you can still shop the clothes from the day before and the game won’t reload to next day till you leave the shop! I thought that was quite convenient

Okay but the tool organization thing? I actually thought it was the order you had the tools put in the tool ring for the longest time and got so confused/frustrated when my axe was next to my net in the tool ring but pressing right or left would bring up my fishing pole or shovel instead

[@jas6759]

Facts: Nooks Cranny opens an hour before the able sisters Facts: Selling your island fruit or your native fruit will sell for 100 bells, as for others they sell for 500 bells. Facts: The Town Hall Bell will go off every hour Facts: When you get stung by a wasp you can go to nooks cranny and buy some medicine, or ask a villager for some medicine (Not all will give you it or some)

Marshal often would say that “A least this gives you a good excuse to stay home & do nothing.”. Other times, Marshal would say, “Oh, your face must hurt! I hope you’re face will heal soon. Marshal, stop saying ‘face’.” Gives you medicine. “I hope the medicine that wasp sting will make make your swelling of your face gets better.” Talks to himself, “Marshal, why am I saying face & making it worse.”

[@hunnybee_]

the Godzilla statue also has a little theme song it plays before it roars if you listen closely. I caught the Coelacanth my 1st try fishing w/ bait while it was raining. 😂 I didn’t know it was that rare to catch. 🙈 I need to pay more attention to rarities in the game.

[@rurumi-chan]

if you have hanging clothes on a clothes rack then putting a fan next to them makes them blow in the wind(same for clothes lines)

[@ejscorp]

Fishing while it's raining to get rare fish was a thing back in the original Animal Crossing.

[@lagwagonneverstops]

Pleasantly surprised that I didn’t know about half of these

[@bugpaul1690]

Here are some random stuff me and my mom found out- not very crazy or interesting 😓 1. Your island tune will play in slow motion as the town hall bell 🔔 2. If you press ‘A’ once during crafting you’ll craft a tiny bit faster, and if you press ‘A’ twice you will craft very quickly- I think 🛠 3. Your fountain will change its water pattern for the duration the town hall bell rings every hour ⛲️ 4. (This may have just been a coincidence) It may be possible that when there is no news from Isabelle, she might talk about the tv show that was playing on a tv that may have been in your house 📺 5. When you speed up a villager’s chatting by pressing ‘B’ constantly, their reactions don’t tend to go as fast as their dialogue 🕰 6. When you sit on a toilet, any fruit that you ate automatically gets taken away and the player says “Well that takes care of that!” 🚽 Thanks for reading all the way through if you did- I know these weren’t very “hidden” or “amazing” per say 🗿📖

[@RetroRaconteur]

Cool, thank you for sharing!

[@qazxsw21000]

#7: a villager gave me a wall fan once. Halfway across across the room from the wall I mounted it to is a plant. The fan oscillates and the plant moves when-and only when-the fan is pointed at it.

I'm probably not the first to say this, but *just* setting your island up for online play allows you to stay in Nook's Cranny past closing hours. Don't actually need a buddy in there with you, just make sure it isn't local play as you said.

[@olivia.amarae]

[@vasantnelson1336]

Another way you can stay late at Nook's Cranny is by showing off an item inside the store. If you do so, they won't kick you out until you stop showing off the item.

[@UsernameHere51]

My fishing tip is don’t waste your time with bait unless it’s a pier or river mouth fish. Those places don’t often get fish spawns let alone the size you are looking for. 8/10 times I’ve caught the fish I’m after is from just doing laps, scaring away the wrong size fish and letting it spawn naturally. Catch what I need in about 15 mins as apposed to hours crafting bait and using 100 and still not getting the fish I need.
