Note that I am aware of the existence of third party servers and external modification to restore some "lost" features. After all, I went through the trouble myself to create a few tools to restore some e-Reader functionality. This video only covers official, vanilla versions of the game just to give a setup on things that are “gone” from these games.

    My parents' WiFi is still named "Best Buy" because my girlfriend at the time wanted to get the New Leaf stuff, but we didn't want to drive out to Best Buy. If I recall right, it only checked that you were connected to a "Best Buy" WiFi, but that sounds so ridiculous now that I've typed it out. I am pretty sure that is all it took though.

    I think the original museum upgrade in new horizons (the brown one before you gain access to the version with the art collection) was made inaccessible in the 2.0 update. Now it just auto upgrades to the second version of the museum, tho if you started on a previous game version you can still keep the old museum as long as you never upgrade to the art gallery

    For Wild World and City Folk's wifi restrictions, there are very easy ways to get online play working for both of these games, specifically the Wiimmfi service. This service allows you to get some of the items that were distributed via wifi too! While not "official", it's as close to the original experience of playing the games online as you're going to get. And for New Leaf, while we'll have to wait a bit for wifi revival services like the DS and Wii have, Pretendo is doing a pretty good job of getting games up and running on the 3ds and Wii U, however I dont think they've started on Animal Crossing just yet.

      In reality, the game uses special hexadecimal character combinations to mark where control commands start in dialogue. I just used the HTML-style brackets as an oversimplification to visualize it better.

    Advice- reduce the frequency of "actually" because it makes the video hard to watch once you start hearing it. Dont believe me? Its like the game. Now that you've lost you continue to hear it and cringe in anticipation as you go from listening to the content to listening for the inevitable "actually drop".

      @Hunter-R. Před 5 dny

      Yea, you’re definitely right… the word gets used quite often in this video. I record a bunch of lines separately, and I see that I like to unconsciously add “actually” when I read the script, even though the word is not in the script writing. I appreciate you pointing it out politely, as I can see how it is annoying and can affect enjoyment of the video. I’ll try to tighten up my scripts and narrations in the future.

    Far left, middle row is Shar from the original Mobile Suit Gundam series. Just to the right, past the EVA one, I think might be the Grandaddy Gundam and Zaku, obv also from Gundam. The purple one right by them looks a LOT like EVA-01. According to another comment, top right is Nausicää. Just to the left of Nausicää -might be Power Rangers?- *EDIT: It's Ultraman.* And bottom row, seventh column _might_ be Shinji's EVA suit, but I'm flimsy on that (and having so many Evangelion references already might just have me jumping at -angels- ghosts).
