I remember just walking into nooks cranny, walking around, chillin’ then I hear a mini Nook’s cranny bell ring with sad piano music lol and they kick me out, I’m just like “excuse me” and I was mad cuz I didn’t have enough time to get the customisation kits I wanted. So I waited for 2 hours just waiting and tryna find something to do cuz stupid me believed it opens back up again at 12:00am, it never opened. So ya, atleast I was eating Pringles while I waited but why didn’t I check opening times. Now I purposely go in before closing time, but I notice able sister doesn’t kick u out

[@RetroRaconteur]

LOL 🤣🤣🤣

[@orangejuiceking7173]

I feel like the nooklings don't care about thier customers vs the able sisters who let you stay pretty much for ever until you turn the game off or leave lol.

Nook's will let you stay too...if you have a friend! I had some folks over selling turnips one time and it actually let us all stay. We were trying to hold it open for one more person and it wouldn't let him in though 😄

Nice to finally see a video that actually has new tips. (ps. maybe change the title so that "new players" isn't in it, people would assume you have really basic tips like "you can press y to cover holes", when that's really not the case, I've played the game for maybe 50 hours and only knew about 2)

[@RetroRaconteur]

Wow, thank you so much! I'm glad to hear you learned a few things. I will consider adjusting the title for sure.

[@RetroRaconteur]

Looks like that title change may have definitely helped this video out. Taking off all these months later! Thanks again for suggesting it.

[@RollyPollyBug]

You can interact with about 1/3 of the placeable items in the game. You can also get a Mario pipe in nook stop and use it to teleport to other pipes.

Thanks, Thimothy! This has been my first video to really take off like this. Been putting in a lot of work so it’s fun to see all this start to pay off.

[@lovingmoosic7829]

another note, you can switch between tools by pressing the left or right d-pad as well. and if you put a tool away but need it again, all you have to do is press the left or right button and it’ll bring it right back! :)

[@Kris-kb4lr]

I’m always kicked out of the shop I thought everyone knew💀

[@RetroRaconteur]

Haha. They must not be night owls like me 🤣. To be honest, I thought you could stay and browse as long as you get in before 10pm...because I've done it. Turns out, I think that only worked because I had people visiting my island and they were also inside the shop!

I didn't know about the turnip prices and weather/shooting stars being predictable. Also, there's a third way to fall in holes : dig a hole in front of a chair or a bench, sit, and get down on the tile with a hole.

[@RetroRaconteur]

Cool! Glad I could help and thanks for sharing your tip as well.

[@nicnac2d]

4:40 for me personally: this was the most groundbreaking and best feature they added in new leaf. i might be overreacting but sometimes the slightest change is more than enough for me to get deeply satisfied.

[@silverpoppy8641]

Did you know you can get kicked out of Nook’s Cranny? Closed captions: did you know you can get kicked out of milk screaming?

[@Football-tq7ow]

Dude that was me

[@hufflepuffler2575]

one of the pieces of bamboo furniture is interactable and when you press A on it a tiny glowing baby pops out before resetting again. This is a nod to the very popular story of princess Kaguya who was found by an old man that worked as a bamboo cutter and due to the generosity he showed towards her by agreeing to take her in to raise her the next time he went to cut bamboo it was filled with money earning her parents vast amounts of money

[@RetroRaconteur]

[@shermanthebear963]

lots of these are in past games too, also just press right or left on dpad to swap the tool you are useing or if you have no tool in hand it will put a tool into your hands

[@Avesie789]

One thing I found out is that sometimes when I would dig before digging or covering up the hole my villager was spinning the shovel in a circle then doing the normal action. I don’t know how it was doing it but it was strange

[@RetroRaconteur]

Interesting!

[@talanoof5304]

this happened to me once too

[@joellritchi]

When you're not holding a tool at all, press left on the D-pad to quickly equip the last used tool. You can also browse all tools with left/right when you're holding a tool; and the order is determined by how they are sorted in your pockets.

[@nia1388]

This is random, but when you wear the king tut mask and you run around, your character will trip over and it’s really cute!

[@RetroRaconteur]

I have seen this one before but completely forgot about it until reading this comment. Thanks for sharing!

[@christopherwhite9415]

Apparently also while running with a balloon but you loose the balloon

[@invaderlib1]

When i was placing the festivale parade float and tried to move it i pressed A and it started moving and playing music and i just sat there in amazement 😂 Just about the same amazement as when i found out about the fountain stream increasing each hour

The one about Sable is so cool! I never knew about it, and I’ve been playing this game since 2020. So yeah, I would love to become friends with her.

[@LilyTheLoser.]

For the first one just stay in there until it hits 10PM and you'll get the same results

[@RetroRaconteur]

To be honest, I thought you could stay and browse as long as you get in before 10pm...because I've done it. Turns out, I think that only worked because I had people visiting my island and they were also inside the shop! I've also read it won't kick you out if you're in the middle of dialogue with Tommy/Timmy, but I think it would still kick you out once that dialogue is completed. If you have someone visiting though, it seems you can stay as long as you want.

[@trindaquil9696]

I've put my switch on sleep mode while in the shop and got kicked out at 2am when I decided to play a little more >-> before I realized they kick you out in the first place

[@UhFrogFriend]

Another way to fall into a hole is by sit in a chair and putting a hole around it. To do this you'll probably need a friend to help. I discovered this early in the game when I was at a friends island and tried to trap me by putting holes around a lounge chair but instead we figured out that and played around with it for like 5 minutes lol.

[@Amielle-in-Ami-hell]

The < and > arrows will switch to the next took in your inventory in that direction and if you aren’t holding a tool it switches to the last tool you used

[@joeykidd9294]

Got that same bandana but in green bandana bros!

[@RetroRaconteur]

Nice!

[@thewizardwoo]

For the one about quickly putting away your item, you can also make you tools all in a line in your inventory with the ones you’ll need most first, and the ones you don’t really need last. Then, whenever you need one, just press the left and right arrow buttons and the first tool in the order you made will pop up. Just keep pressing the arrow button until you get the tool you want lol

[@RetroRaconteur]

Yep! Super helpful until you unlock the tool ring.

[@cararosevear613]

You know how you were talking about sable? Well actually yesterday she started saying nice things to me either then just saying "I'm busy right now, but can you talk to my sister if you need anything?" I felt happy

[@ryanblake763]

When you use a popper when bees are chasing you, the will get scared and run away.

[@voiiddd8016]

A weird thing is that although Nooks Cranny kicks you out, Able Sisters doesn’t. I went in there at 8:58pm and went in there. I waited until 9:00pm, nah, they didn’t care. When I went out of AS (Able Sisters) the lights went off, and I couldn’t go back in. I think I actually wanted something from there- oof

[@lor383]

I remember being so surprised when I fell into a hole for the first time! It was the funniest thing ever, seeing my villager flailing 😂

[@chainsreacting]

I learned about getting kicked in new leaf when I fell asleep and woke up around midnight and went to play and got kicked out I never got the item I wanted. Also the spider crab is another creature without a cage.

[@MidnightMoon980]

You can also hit the arrows on the Left Joy contest which between items quickly, just another tip

[@rayaeparker8973]

I've found that making a farm with tomatoes, carrots, potatoes and pumpkins is also a great way to generate bells! And is immune to time travelling as well :) Needs a bit of room but I've found it to be fairly quick at making money

[@SP4C1AL_]

Yes yes me too I have sold many many coconuts, oranges, peaches, and tomatoes and they all give me lots more money then my islands regular apples. i really love how we get bonuses on other kind of fruit/vegetable

Abit of info about that down on D-pad puts away your tool currently held, this is actually something carried over from some past Animal Crossing games, in which villagers may sometimes inform you of that function

[@minnnxy]

Fun fact: If you are at somebody else's island and if you check you critterpeidia, it will not say if you have donated the creature yet.

[@lockabar]

Pushing left or right will switch tools or bring up the last tool used if hands are empty.

[@stellalunaaj851]

There’s another way to fall into holes. You put an item that you can sit on next to a hole, then after you do that You turn your seating view next to the hole, then you hop off that item then you placed and then you fall into the hole

[@RetroRaconteur]

Ha! Nice! Thanks for sharing. 😄

[@theonetheonly.7799]

along with the dpad thing: you can also press right and left to equip the next tool in your inventory and if you dont have one equipped at the moment it equips the last tool you used the up button is for favorites! its similar to the favorited reactions menu you cant use the dpad in buildings like shops and houses, though

[@RetroRaconteur]

Very helpful!

[@creamcickepika14]

When I caught a spider crab for the first time, I was curious as to how it was displayed on land. Guess what? They are like the snapping turtle. GIANT SEA CREATURES CHILLING ON THE ISLAND is AMAZING!!!!! (I donated my crab to the museum because I never knew when I would get another one to donate)

[@Angel-vu3fz]

I knew like almost all of these lol but it's an amazing video for those who are new to animal crossing and don't know these :)

[@femalepapyrus]

For falling into hole you can also fall into one when you have a hole next to a tree stump and when you're sitting on it and get off of it on the side that has the hole you can fall into it

[@DragoonMS]

Yeah, there's a little more to Nook's Cranny: if you go in at 9:50pm, the music in the store changes. I've played this game for almost a year, and I've never had good turnip selling prices.

[@mimifrank3605]

you can also fall into holes by digging a hole in front of a seat, sitting on the seat, and trying to get up on the hole! I found that out one time and a villager was watching but didn't do anything about it or worry. Just found it funny

[@hamperboy]

Some of these like the d pad and the falling into a hole one I knew but the sable one is so cool time to tell everyone I know hehe

I know about the haunted fake art, but a lot of people know about that. Also, if you press A by the monster statue it will breathe fire. And you can turn festival floats on.

[@undeadladybug7723]
