  • For the 17th anniversary of my Animal Crossing (GameCube) town of Forest, I've decided to make a new nostalgia-filled town tour. I show the attractions around town, speak to most of my villagers, and I also overlay some old clips of memorable things that happened in various spots around town.
    Here are links to the article and some other videos mentioned in the video:

    Villagers featured in this video include Dozer, Kody, Genji, Maple, Static, Belle, Ursala, Sydney, Tom, Candi, Puck, Baabara, Snake, and Emerald.
    This video uses the song "Wrong" by Dan Henig from the CZcams free music library, and I also used some sound effects from Donkey Kong 64 (N64).

      dayum son it’s weird that you guys say they were so mean. I don’t remember them as being mean because I actually gave them chances and continued to talk to them and let them grow and develop as friends. They become nicer. It’s a shame you guys didn’t get to see how cool that was. 🤷🏻‍♂️

      I have already looked up the calendar for just this occasion. In 2031, your old town will become essentially unplayable... But if starting a new town, you can dial the date back 28 years to 2003 and all of the dates will line up with the correct day of the week and leap years will be correct too. The only real-life holiday that wouldn't match up (as far as I know) is Easter, but since there's nothing in the original Animal Crossing for Easter, it's no big deal.

      Unfortunately, I don't remember who my starting villagers were. I had no idea I'd still be playing the game many years later, much less have videos and a blog about it, so I didn't keep track of things like that back then. It's possible that one or more of them may have been original villagers (perhaps Candi?), but there's no way of knowing for sure.
