Those Sanrio cards are now just available to purchase at Target. It’s crazy that they created that level of “need to buy” for something they actually just continued to sell even years down the line.
Pretty sure how these cards were being sold was not properly communicated to the staff of a bunch of stores since stories came out about how they were still put up on shelves to pick up and scalpers came in and bought them up in bulk immediately
You left out the wiggling penis controversy. The parents of early American adopters of the first game would often write letters to Nintendo about the gyroid assistant next to the players houses. They said it looked like a wiggling penis and apparently NOA employees were busting up laughing at the game once the similarities were pointed out.

@@ilexdiapasonpretty sure the first example was used simply to point out that it wasn’t an accidental misunderstanding, not as a comparison to her saying the n word.
Bots weren’t the only problem with the Sanrio amiibo card release. Many Targets were selling them in-store instead of reserving them for online pickup. After failing tons of times to reserve for pickup online I heard on Twitter that some ppl were able to just get them in store, went to my local Target and watched someone buy the last pack right as I was walking up to the counter 😭
I once scammed someone by selling teddy to them cuz teddy already moved out, but they thought they got it! Oh my goodness i felt soo bad so i made another trade with them and just gave them 7m bells as an apology😭
Ah I remember the Ankha Zone thing.. idk why people thought 'yeah let's spread cropped porn all over tiktok' And then idk why certain animators turned it into just 'character dance' trends which created a brainrot content farm channel
I am genuinely still appalled by that whole thing. she is a cartoon character and also literally a cat?? it shouldve been ranked as just being wrong in every way possible
@artdecofawn I'm sorry but it's not a crime to make r34 of a fictional character. Maybe a little weird, but not a crime. Also on the topic of her "being a cat" she's an anthropomorphic animal, which is not the same as a literal animal. She has human features that set her apart from a real cat, so it's not zoophilia.
@@silli_clownmaeda I never ever said it is zoophilia? u brought that up urself. I just think it’s wrong and that’s my opnion. u can have your own opinion lol but I don’t need a whole explanation.
funniest part abt the peta thing is that... to get all those tanks full like they are in the video. someone had to take the time to donate all the creatures...
19:56 The person complaining about white people wearing the in-game acnh hairstyle wasn't even black 😭 I personally remember seeing/hearing about this tweet when it first came out and as a black person, just did not care. I was too busy trying to get Skye on my island 💀🙏🏽 Amazing video btw 🫶🏽
scamming is so crazy for such a cutesy game that treasure islands are actually trustworthy especially if you don’t have time to waste to villager hunt. Also if you want to make a cool dream island that other people can visit it definitely comes in handy and helps you find the things you need to decorate your island better
I haven’t played ACNH in over a year because my joycons need replaced but when I did I used treasure islands often to supply myself with tickets for my big villager hunts. I think I might’ve used it once to get a villager I really wanted. But all the ones I used were pretty reasonable prices. So if you have the money to spare, then I say go for it.
TBF to Catty, it’s a game from a Japanese company so a very American racist image probably wasn’t particularly on their radar, especially back then when the resources for catching such things were more limited. Seems kinda like a Jynx situation, in which the Pokémon is actually based on Yama Uba, a yokai commonly depicted with dark skin, white or blonde hair, and a red kimono and is popularly portrayed in Japanese theatre and the actors’ makeup can easily be mistaken for blackface to someone unfamiliar. I think that villager is a similar deal. Since she’s unused, though, it seems they did catch the cultural issue and act on it, further showing no intent to be offensive. And while he obviously doesn’t speak for all black people, a friend of mine who is black found the hair thing just completely stupid because… it’s a kid’s Animal Crossing character in a cute hairstyle…
I think the issue with the Ankha stuff is less that she's a cat & more that the animator credited to it is like. notably a creep from what i understand. like nsfw of underage characters with Ankha she passes the harkness test (adult, able to verbally communicate clear consent, willing) but the animator and the POSTING PORN TO TIKTOK FOR CHILDREN TO SEE is where the main issue lies imo. for "its a cat", we can maybe rebuild, for the, again POSTING IT FOR KIDS TO SEE it's the worst one
and additionally the sanrio cards apparently didn't do too well in my state bc I got a couple packs from gabes, but at this point i guarentee the files are online if you know where to look, nfc chips are way cheaper
1:36 Police and the news have a way of saying this same thing for EVERY game, at least they used to. Besides I also highly doubt the cops actually care about this.
20:03 "this hairstyle isn't for you to wear" Believe it or not, some light-skinned people do have tight curls just like that. This hairstyle isn't for you to gatekeep. 👀
One time in 2020, I went to my friend's island, and she had blue roses somehow. I can almost guarantee they were given to her by another friend because she was totally new to AC and you don't just *accidentally* get blue roses. Anyways, once she went into her house, I dug them out and she didn't even notice. I still feel guilty when I think about it, I never told her either. 😭
One time on miiverse, someone invited me to their island on new leaf. He had the entire upgrades to everything, multiple public works projects etc. I noticed he had jacobs ladders so I took some and even stole his pears cause for some reason they were so hard to get😭😭. I was also a kid so he maybe didn’t care since those flowers are easy to get and he can plant more pears
@@silli_clownmaeda a little strange is not the right way to phrase it & regardless of whether its illegal or not.. its so extremely wrong to do so it should be questioned…
exactly, i wasn't sure if i should say it because people can be so sensitive nowadays but it's hard not to. it's ridiculous that it upset people so much, it's not racist she clearly likes the hair and not everyone should be expected to remember names of hairstyles either. it's still a black hair made for black people but her post isn't taking anything away from that because at the end of the day it's just a game where people make all different characters that may look nothing like them anyways. (edit: just wanted to add that I just read another comment that confirmed she was actually racist but i still stick by what i said when it comes to the initial situation, of course when they're actually racist they deserve backlash which she eventually did.)
okay but how did the slur even get through the review copies? does that mean some random nintendo employee played a prank and changed the catchphrase? i wonder if nintendo found who did it cause i know they’d be fired immediately
You can change the villagers' catchphrases and a player just happened to figure out that you could input that while using accented letters, which should have been impossible.
New Leaf was such a good life T.T I never got scammed, everyone was so nice. the villagers weren't (complete assholes and) had personalities... I'll forever miss that era
abt being scammed, back in new leaf i remember i used to host item giveaways in this animal crossing facebook group where i just let ppl come to my town and take stuff i laid out cuz i always had of shit ton of valuable stuff that i didnt want (and i think i was trying to get the custom train stations or w/e), but i ended up not doing them anymore because someone came during one of them and, while i wasnt paying attention, stole a bunch of my hybrid flowers that i was using to grow more, even though i was also offering other hybrid flowers 😭 thankfully the mods of that group were really nice and offered to replace what was stolen LMAO
The Afro puffs incident made me sad because it was a misunderstanding of something the OP was unaware of. And because black hair styles are so sparse in video games, the black community can get very up in arms about it. From it being mislabeled, to not designed right, we take a lot of pride in them.
Pocket Camp is much improved now with Complete version not using microtransactions. But what I DO find controversial is they won't bring back exclusive content such as the Sanrio or Eevee stuff.
Not ‘pro hacking’ but if they’re gonna make me buy a new switch for every island then I think I deserve to have as much fun on my one island as possible
I sold Raymond for a stupid amount of bells during the pandemic a few years ago when i was younger and immediately felt awful about it 😭 but at least I wasn't selling him for real money?
The other problem with the sanrio cards was that a lot of Targets "Didn't know" they were online only and sold them in person on the floor. There were pictures of the packs on eBay that were taken IN TARGET.
I remember a big controversy in the early time of new horizons was time skipping, either for building your island or villagers moving. People would get into debates and arguments if time skipping was "cheating" and an "authentic way" to play the game
Yeah I like treasure islands and I feel like paying for the Nintendo Online fee justifies it. Especially if you're like me and none of your friends play, it makes the fee worth it.
I remember the Sanrio amiibo cards controversy was so big that people made tuturials about how to use NFC cards to make ones for free were shared extremely openly^^
you just HAD to be on animal crossing twitter between 2020-2021. it’s was such a wild time. there was drama every single day and controversies bigger than you could believe. the manilla clam fiasco, the space buns, illegal villager trades, and even a prominent figure in the scene who made a fake account sending hate messages and threatening to dox themselves. simpler times. I’m so glad I got away from it
I really don't understand people getting mad at someone calling that hair style space buns. I'm biracial, and that's what I've been calling them my whole life. Just because they're calling it one way doesn't automatically make it wrong or the person racist
@@ABulbmin you can't own a hair style lmao. trying to argue is so silly. you're trying so hard to be morally righteous you're swerving into segregating things
they BOUGHT a SIXTY DOLLAR game to PROTEST in, WITHIN THE REALM of the game? What sense does that make? Sounds like an excuse to play it without feeling guilty for betraying theyre pretty admittedly weirdly directed ideals.
Just feel like I should point out that PETA are hypocrites that don't have a good track record with helping animals and basically just do everything for attention.
Oh god…. I remember that stupid tweet of the space buns. I remember commenting on it how people getting mad over is fucking ridiculous. Like it’s just fucking hair people can wear hairstyles how ever they want without someone being a little bitch about it.
I got New Leaf because of the Animal Crossing hype when New Horizons was releasing and like being sorta on the outskirts of the fandom the drama and scamming and stuff is crazy to hear about 😭 like damn I’m rlly living in my own world
I miss the mean villagers soo much🥹my only problem with treasure islands is when multiple ppl are coming to the island back to back the waiting and loading screens takes so damn long😭
It was crazy back in 2016. I managed to get my hands on the San Rio Amiibo cards and then the day they were released again. I ended up finding them at my local targets, even though it was like you said, but when I talk to the person at the store, they just said they had a whole bunch left over even though it was literally the minute they opened up also I’ve had some scammers before with villagers and whenever I saw the message that it’s time to go home I always crashed the Wi-Fi on purpose so that way they wouldn’t get what I had paid for that villager like for example I went to get Ankha and I paid 100 nook Miles tickets which I didn’t really care at the time soon as I dropped everything they tried to kick me out and I immediately canceled and I got all my tickets back then they messaged me why I didn’t get the villager, but then I told him you were trying to scam me so I knew the minute that happened
When I was younger I had Ally, or however you spell her name, on my Wild World town. I wrote a nice little welcome letter and she wrote back saying my handwriting sucked. 😭
Why is nobody acknowledging it’s crazy to say acpc is pay to play when it’s free when every other ac game you actually have to pay not just the game the device too
I went to an inventory island once and i was getting all the colors for this kitchen island so i picked them all up and before i could place them down something happened with the internet conection and i ended up getting kicked from the island. so i accidently stole 3 of the kitchen islands
I’m pretty certain the star tree controversy was also that if someone tried to take a star tree (specifically the tree, not the stars on them) it kind of lowkey corrupted their file? The community was already self regulating before Nintendo pulled the ban hammer on it but it makes more sense when you consider that the existence of something in the game can seriously damage your system if you’re not careful.
For what it’s worth, I always thought pocket camp was pretty reasonable with the micro transactions when compared to other games out there. Like, I felt that there were ample opportunities to earn the special currency to buy limited items if I was willing to grind for it, whereas most games make it basically impossible to earn the special currency without spending real money
Ngl I paid 7$ for Raymond and a bunch of free resources 😂 I ended up giving him to a friend after a year and half to get more of my actual dreamies on my island. I tried giving him away in servers but I think people assumed I was bullshitting to give him up for free 😂 I wouldn't ever charge anyone for a villager! I would help strangers get their dreamies through the amiibo phone NFC hack for a good while, some people got a bit pushy about it (it took about 20 or more mins to even set up! I had to get an empty home, scan the amiibo and go through 3 time travel days of inviting them and crafting items) and I would just tell them I didn't have to take time out of my day to do this for them for free!
Omg I remember the Target card problem! People on Facebook said my local Target employees were giving them out to people who went into the store and asked for them, so my online order got canceled 😢

Bots weren’t the only problem with the Sanrio amiibo card release. Many Targets were selling them in-store instead of reserving them for online pickup. After failing tons of times to reserve for pickup online I heard on Twitter that some ppl were able to just get them in store, went to my local Target and watched someone buy the last pack right as I was walking up to the counter 😭
I once scammed someone by selling teddy to them cuz teddy already moved out, but they thought they got it! Oh my goodness i felt soo bad so i made another trade with them and just gave them 7m bells as an apology😭
Ah I remember the Ankha Zone thing.. idk why people thought 'yeah let's spread cropped porn all over tiktok'
And then idk why certain animators turned it into just 'character dance' trends which created a brainrot content farm channel
I am genuinely still appalled by that whole thing. she is a cartoon character and also literally a cat?? it shouldve been ranked as just being wrong in every way possible
@@artdecofawn weird ass people will make porn out of anything even if its an... an animated cat
@artdecofawn I'm sorry but it's not a crime to make r34 of a fictional character. Maybe a little weird, but not a crime. Also on the topic of her "being a cat" she's an anthropomorphic animal, which is not the same as a literal animal. She has human features that set her apart from a real cat, so it's not zoophilia.
@@silli_clownmaeda I never ever said it is zoophilia? u brought that up urself. I just think it’s wrong and that’s my opnion. u can have your own opinion lol but I don’t need a whole explanation.
@@artdecofawn Oh mb. I assumed you thought it was wrong because a lot of ppl assume animal traits = zoophilia.
not baabara being there twice 😭
3:13 homophobia in his eyes❤️
STGOP
funniest part abt the peta thing is that... to get all those tanks full like they are in the video. someone had to take the time to donate all the creatures...
19:56 The person complaining about white people wearing the in-game acnh hairstyle wasn't even black 😭 I personally remember seeing/hearing about this tweet when it first came out and as a black person, just did not care. I was too busy trying to get Skye on my island 💀🙏🏽
Amazing video btw 🫶🏽
scamming is so crazy for such a cutesy game that treasure islands are actually trustworthy especially if you don’t have time to waste to villager hunt. Also if you want to make a cool dream island that other people can visit it definitely comes in handy and helps you find the things you need to decorate your island better
I haven’t played ACNH in over a year because my joycons need replaced but when I did I used treasure islands often to supply myself with tickets for my big villager hunts. I think I might’ve used it once to get a villager I really wanted. But all the ones I used were pretty reasonable prices. So if you have the money to spare, then I say go for it.
TBF to Catty, it’s a game from a Japanese company so a very American racist image probably wasn’t particularly on their radar, especially back then when the resources for catching such things were more limited. Seems kinda like a Jynx situation, in which the Pokémon is actually based on Yama Uba, a yokai commonly depicted with dark skin, white or blonde hair, and a red kimono and is popularly portrayed in Japanese theatre and the actors’ makeup can easily be mistaken for blackface to someone unfamiliar. I think that villager is a similar deal. Since she’s unused, though, it seems they did catch the cultural issue and act on it, further showing no intent to be offensive.
And while he obviously doesn’t speak for all black people, a friend of mine who is black found the hair thing just completely stupid because… it’s a kid’s Animal Crossing character in a cute hairstyle…
Holy cannoli, itis you i remember you from the twitters!!
I think the issue with the Ankha stuff is less that she's a cat & more that the animator credited to it is like. notably a creep from what i understand. like nsfw of underage characters
with Ankha she passes the harkness test (adult, able to verbally communicate clear consent, willing) but the animator and the POSTING PORN TO TIKTOK FOR CHILDREN TO SEE is where the main issue lies imo.
for "its a cat", we can maybe rebuild, for the, again POSTING IT FOR KIDS TO SEE it's the worst one
also nintendo did go "huh why didn't we think of that",, you can get star fragment islands from kappin now
and additionally the sanrio cards apparently didn't do too well in my state bc I got a couple packs from gabes, but at this point i guarentee the files are online if you know where to look, nfc chips are way cheaper
my best friend paid 400 nmt for Raymond 💀😭
I mean that’s not even bad at least they paid in game currency 💀
Bruh all the villager hunts I have are normally
1:36 Police and the news have a way of saying this same thing for EVERY game, at least they used to. Besides I also highly doubt the cops actually care about this.
20:03 "this hairstyle isn't for you to wear"
Believe it or not, some light-skinned people do have tight curls just like that. This hairstyle isn't for you to gatekeep. 👀
The space bun should be in the green zone maybe not even that. Thats just yapping on another level they look like space buns who cares
I don’t know about the whole bumpkin thing because in the new zelda echoes of wisdom, dekus will call you bumpkin
the "space buns/afro puffs" controversy is such a joke. and it's a joke it was put in the next to highest tier.
20:06 I'd like to add that I checked her social media at the time and she was actually racist behind the scenes 🥲
the way pocket camp did actually rebuild tho,,, growth✨
The ankha original.. it was not just topless 💀
No... it was not. It was full on NSFW. Who would put sweet innocent Ankha into those predicaments? A sick person, that's who.
The peta thing was ridiculous lol
One time in 2020, I went to my friend's island, and she had blue roses somehow. I can almost guarantee they were given to her by another friend because she was totally new to AC and you don't just *accidentally* get blue roses. Anyways, once she went into her house, I dug them out and she didn't even notice. I still feel guilty when I think about it, I never told her either. 😭
@LemonnNote your friend when she sees the comment: 😡
Im so glad i have trustworthy friends
dude tell her
One time on miiverse, someone invited me to their island on new leaf. He had the entire upgrades to everything, multiple public works projects etc. I noticed he had jacobs ladders so I took some and even stole his pears cause for some reason they were so hard to get😭😭. I was also a kid so he maybe didn’t care since those flowers are easy to get and he can plant more pears
“tell blathers to empty the tanks!!” THATS A FICTIONAL OWL GNN
resetti scared me as a kid and i never reset the game again.
WHY IS ANKA NOT IN THE WORST TIER AND NO ONE IS QUESTIONING IT???.??????
Because rule 34
No one is questioning it because people literally make porn out of anything
Because it's not morally wrong to make r34. There is no crime in creating things like that even if it is a little strange.
because getting shocked that theres furry porn on the internet is mind numbingly stupid.
@@silli_clownmaeda a little strange is not the right way to phrase it & regardless of whether its illegal or not.. its so extremely wrong to do so it should be questioned…
The space buns one is bs. No one should be mad at it and just do what you want. It's a game hairstyle....deal with it.
exactly, i wasn't sure if i should say it because people can be so sensitive nowadays but it's hard not to. it's ridiculous that it upset people so much, it's not racist she clearly likes the hair and not everyone should be expected to remember names of hairstyles either. it's still a black hair made for black people but her post isn't taking anything away from that because at the end of the day it's just a game where people make all different characters that may look nothing like them anyways. (edit: just wanted to add that I just read another comment that confirmed she was actually racist but i still stick by what i said when it comes to the initial situation, of course when they're actually racist they deserve backlash which she eventually did.)
controvershy
Not my joke, but controhershy 🍫🍫🍫
Ankha wasn’t even ‘topless’, it’s straight up corn… it’s her and a villager doing it 😭😭
yeah like wtf
okay but how did the slur even get through the review copies? does that mean some random nintendo employee played a prank and changed the catchphrase? i wonder if nintendo found who did it cause i know they’d be fired immediately
You can change the villagers' catchphrases and a player just happened to figure out that you could input that while using accented letters, which should have been impossible.
The Sanrios were insane. I remember seeing them in a store in Spain back in 2017 for 4 bucks and I didn't buy them. Cursed myself ever since lol
Where I am their still for sale, maybe they'll be available there too
New Leaf was such a good life T.T I never got scammed, everyone was so nice. the villagers weren't (complete assholes and) had personalities... I'll forever miss that era
abt being scammed, back in new leaf i remember i used to host item giveaways in this animal crossing facebook group where i just let ppl come to my town and take stuff i laid out cuz i always had of shit ton of valuable stuff that i didnt want (and i think i was trying to get the custom train stations or w/e), but i ended up not doing them anymore because someone came during one of them and, while i wasnt paying attention, stole a bunch of my hybrid flowers that i was using to grow more, even though i was also offering other hybrid flowers 😭 thankfully the mods of that group were really nice and offered to replace what was stolen LMAO
The Afro puffs incident made me sad because it was a misunderstanding of something the OP was unaware of. And because black hair styles are so sparse in video games, the black community can get very up in arms about it. From it being mislabeled, to not designed right, we take a lot of pride in them.
Me and my friends used to do “raffles” where ppl can pick like 3 gifts and they don’t know what they got but we never put good stuff in them
THATS SO MEAN
Ugh I remember Raymond.. I found him randomly on my last reset of my island and I wanted him GONE.
8:45 Watching this whilst playing pocket camp complete 🤣🤣
Pocket Camp is much improved now with Complete version not using microtransactions.
But what I DO find controversial is they won't bring back exclusive content such as the Sanrio or Eevee stuff.
Not ‘pro hacking’ but if they’re gonna make me buy a new switch for every island then I think I deserve to have as much fun on my one island as possible
The ACNH villagers literally have NPC personalities. EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE NPCS! They’re just so bland now though.
"The ACNH villagers literally have NPC personalities. EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE NPCS!" Read that again.. but very slowly.
Will never understand the people who scam on animal crossing....
I sold Raymond for a stupid amount of bells during the pandemic a few years ago when i was younger and immediately felt awful about it 😭 but at least I wasn't selling him for real money?
Treasure islands is like creative mode in Minecraft, some people prefer creative over survival
4:00 I honestly can’t believe Raymond was my first campsite villager 😭
That happened to me one time when I restarted😭
Pocket camp was not banned in the Netherlands though
Same in belgium, i remember playing it when i was younger.
That space buns controversy was so lame and unnecessary. People actually harassed that person as well. Other ethnicities can have puffy hair….
The other problem with the sanrio cards was that a lot of Targets "Didn't know" they were online only and sold them in person on the floor. There were pictures of the packs on eBay that were taken IN TARGET.
I remember a big controversy in the early time of new horizons was time skipping, either for building your island or villagers moving. People would get into debates and arguments if time skipping was "cheating" and an "authentic way" to play the game
So the rudeness of the GCN Animal Crossing villagers was basically all a localization change
Yeah I like treasure islands and I feel like paying for the Nintendo Online fee justifies it. Especially if you're like me and none of your friends play, it makes the fee worth it.
My biggest flex is having Raymond show up at my campsite and kicking out a villager I already hated to get him
I remember the Sanrio amiibo cards controversy was so big that people made tuturials about how to use NFC cards to make ones for free were shared extremely openly^^
you just HAD to be on animal crossing twitter between 2020-2021. it’s was such a wild time. there was drama every single day and controversies bigger than you could believe. the manilla clam fiasco, the space buns, illegal villager trades, and even a prominent figure in the scene who made a fake account sending hate messages and threatening to dox themselves. simpler times. I’m so glad I got away from it
I like how you explained the tiers by repeating what they're called with slightly more wording
I really don't understand people getting mad at someone calling that hair style space buns. I'm biracial, and that's what I've been calling them my whole life. Just because they're calling it one way doesn't automatically make it wrong or the person racist
the problem was the hairstyle is for black people and she was white
@@ABulbminthey are hair buns. Hair! Americans are fucking weird man
@@ABulbminwhite people also can have textured hair my guy
@@ABulbmin you can't own a hair style lmao. trying to argue is so silly. you're trying so hard to be morally righteous you're swerving into segregating things
The ankha video was not just DANCING it was full on an adult video… it goes to the top
they BOUGHT a SIXTY DOLLAR game to PROTEST in, WITHIN THE REALM of the game? What sense does that make? Sounds like an excuse to play it without feeling guilty for betraying theyre pretty admittedly weirdly directed ideals.
Just feel like I should point out that PETA are hypocrites that don't have a good track record with helping animals and basically just do everything for attention.
Oh god…. I remember that stupid tweet of the space buns. I remember commenting on it how people getting mad over is fucking ridiculous. Like it’s just fucking hair people can wear hairstyles how ever they want without someone being a little bitch about it.
You forgot Jane but after thinking she isn’t really that big of one
The “space buns” controversy was hella stupid. But looking back it’s actually hilarious how mad people got about it.
Damn people were selling Raymond?! I had him super early too
Yeah we missed an opportunity 😂
I got New Leaf because of the Animal Crossing hype when New Horizons was releasing and like being sorta on the outskirts of the fandom the drama and scamming and stuff is crazy to hear about 😭 like damn I’m rlly living in my own world
I miss the mean villagers soo much🥹my only problem with treasure islands is when multiple ppl are coming to the island back to back the waiting and loading screens takes so damn long😭
It was crazy back in 2016. I managed to get my hands on the San Rio Amiibo cards and then the day they were released again. I ended up finding them at my local targets, even though it was like you said, but when I talk to the person at the store, they just said they had a whole bunch left over even though it was literally the minute they opened up also I’ve had some scammers before with villagers and whenever I saw the message that it’s time to go home I always crashed the Wi-Fi on purpose so that way they wouldn’t get what I had paid for that villager like for example I went to get Ankha and I paid 100 nook Miles tickets which I didn’t really care at the time soon as I dropped everything they tried to kick me out and I immediately canceled and I got all my tickets back then they messaged me why I didn’t get the villager, but then I told him you were trying to scam me so I knew the minute that happened
When I was younger I had Ally, or however you spell her name, on my Wild World town. I wrote a nice little welcome letter and she wrote back saying my handwriting sucked. 😭
I got so mad about the Sanrio cards that I went and got bootleg versions on Etsy lmaoo
Why is nobody acknowledging it’s crazy to say acpc is pay to play when it’s free when every other ac game you actually have to pay not just the game the device too
I went to an inventory island once and i was getting all the colors for this kitchen island so i picked them all up and before i could place them down something happened with the internet conection and i ended up getting kicked from the island. so i accidently stole 3 of the kitchen islands
I’m pretty certain the star tree controversy was also that if someone tried to take a star tree (specifically the tree, not the stars on them) it kind of lowkey corrupted their file? The community was already self regulating before Nintendo pulled the ban hammer on it but it makes more sense when you consider that the existence of something in the game can seriously damage your system if you’re not careful.
I got the amibo cards on the shelves at target which was fire. I think they released for a long time before I actually bought them tho
For what it’s worth, I always thought pocket camp was pretty reasonable with the micro transactions when compared to other games out there. Like, I felt that there were ample opportunities to earn the special currency to buy limited items if I was willing to grind for it, whereas most games make it basically impossible to earn the special currency without spending real money
Resetti confused me as a child because my responses weren’t correct but I couldn’t understand why😭😭
good video but the twitter sound effects were loud
I love baabara so much, she's one of my favorite villagers and I hate that she got a bad reputation from someone being stupid :((
Ngl I paid 7$ for Raymond and a bunch of free resources 😂
I ended up giving him to a friend after a year and half to get more of my actual dreamies on my island. I tried giving him away in servers but I think people assumed I was bullshitting to give him up for free 😂
I wouldn't ever charge anyone for a villager! I would help strangers get their dreamies through the amiibo phone NFC hack for a good while, some people got a bit pushy about it (it took about 20 or more mins to even set up! I had to get an empty home, scan the amiibo and go through 3 time travel days of inviting them and crafting items) and I would just tell them I didn't have to take time out of my day to do this for them for free!
Omg I remember the Target card problem! People on Facebook said my local Target employees were giving them out to people who went into the store and asked for them, so my online order got canceled 😢
