Of villages past
Mar. 7th, 2016 09:17 pmMy husband rewired the entertainment centre on the weekend and we hooked the Game Cube back up for fun. We aren't the biggest gamers so we only had three games - Animal Crossing, Konami Arcade and Primal Fury.
Loading up Animal Crossing brought back so many memories! The last time it was played was October 25, 2007. All the houses had cockroaches and I was appalled at the extra house I used for storage hoarding. It was so full of random stuff!
The first thing I noticed were the garish and saturated colours and the controls were horribly clunky. Typing letters was a real chore. "Why is the town called 'Ponyland'?" my husband said. Hee! There's weeds everywhere of course. The animals are considerably more ruder.
Thankfully Twiggy didn't mind waiting nine years to get his camera back. I had forgotten all the villagers except for Twiggy. There's Peaches, Bob, Paolo, Chevre and Kody. Heh, I changed Kody's catchphrase to something mildly naughty and I might play a bit to change it. I must not have liked him very much - the animals were definitely ruder in the original AC. My husband was so scandalized, but there's something about naughtiness and Animal Crossing that go so well together :D
