I would love to see comparisons of how long it takes to do the same task in ACGC vs ACNH. Like how long does it take to pay off your house in each game, or complete the bug or fish collection. As a kid, things in ACGC felt like they took forever, but im curious to see if it was actually harder or if i was just a dumb kid as compared to the big strong cool grownup i am now
Ive played new leaf for 3 years with around 500 hours and have literally just payed off my final loan and i caught the golden stag for the first time only a few weeks ago. I payed off my new horizons loan in under a year (around 100 hours) and i think that new horizons is just overall easier
I think for me it was about the same, but I learned a trick pretty early on in NL to get stag beetles to spawn on the island to make all the money, so golden stag was a lot easier in NL for me. (The trick is to chop down all non-coconut trees to minimize other spawns on the island)
I've found that easiest way to catch whatever you're looking for is to start the game & fish for 2 minutes with bait. Then, if you haven't caught what you want yet, restart the game & try again. It's how I finished the fish portion of my museum. Now if I could only get Redd to sell me the damn statue I need I can finally finish the whole thing!
Yeah, fish aren’t that hard to catch now, especially since the resolution allows you to recognize fish sizes. It also helps that there’s fish bait you can get to fish faster, and better sounds to identify when to reel in the fish. Hell, the only reason cast master is possible is the “go blind and wait for the sound” method.
It’s not the only reason it’s possible, I never miss a fish. Last time was because I was sipping tea and didn’t think that I’d need my hand to row the fish lol. I actually got the achievement super early, probably in april 2020.
Right! I get it wrong if i'm looking lol I didn't expect to ever be able to get it tbh, but about a few weeks after I started playing (I was playing 6ish hours a day) I managed it and????
I swear I will NEVER hit my 50 fish in a row goal, let alone the 250 one... I constantly accidentally think I heard it go "sploosh" and do it too early 😭😆
It's funny cause back in the day catching rare fish in CF and NL seemed almost impossible to me so when I played NH I said to myself "damn they made fishing way easier this time" but recently I came back to NL and it was just as easy as NH, maybe even easier since your fishing rod never breaks, maybe I was just a dumb kid lol
Yeah, I feel you. I’ve been revisiting every game in the series recently, on emulator for GC to CF, but NL and NH are on legit hardware. I figured NL would be problematic when I couldn’t guarantee catches with save states, but that almost never came up; wasn’t long until I just naturally had every big and fish available to me without time travel (missed the giant beetle actually, but Tortimer Island’s perma-summer means I never actually miss it). NL was definitely the start of bug/fish collecting getting way easier.
My dumb kid-ness was about play time. I’d always time travel to a particular time of day before starting an AC session, usually whenever Nook’s store opened, so there were a ton of bugs and fish I never caught as a kid because I never let the game be in their active hours. I think kid me just assumed I’d stumble upon them eventually. Jokes on me in GC, the summer evening beetles turned out to be easier money than ocean fishing.
it's looks way better than wild world since the gamecube is a home console, while the ds is handheld. even then, the graphics shift is really jarring! i played new leaf first, and was really shocked to see how high quality city folk was in comparison!
I was the first one between myself and my best friend to catch a coelacanth in Wild World, despite the fact that she had the game for way longer than me. We were having a sleepover and catching full pockets of as many rare fish as we could (I would swap fish for rarer ones before sale, but she would sell every fish she caught bc "every fish is worth bells") and would keep turning the clock back a few hours when Nook's closed so we could keep selling. It started raining and I caught the elusive coelacanth, and in the excitement, my friend launched herself into the air and landed heavily on the bed we were lounging on. The game froze while I was still in her town. All of our progress was lost. My coelacanth was gone. She couldn't stop laughing and I was DEVASTATED. Joke's on her because I caught two in a row on the way home in the car, a five minute drive.
for the original animal crossing, i am pretty sure you have to buy the shovel before the shop has any other tools. the space next to the shovel also gets a tool after you buy it, so that's two tools a day!
so from what i reasearched how tools acfually work in animal crossing game cube is this. you get shovel first, then you have a hidden value called sell value or nook points or whatever that you cant see. you need 3,000 to unlock the net and see it in shop, and 8,000 to see fishing rod. basically you get this hidden value up by spending bells at nooks. if you buy things from nook equal to 8,000 bells, that hidden value will go up to 8,000 and youll unlock the fishing rod in the shop the next days. however if you sell things to nook you only get half of the sell prive added to the hidden points system to unlocking new tools
Seeing the old games was such a blast from the past. But also seeing the shark fins did make me miss how much they stood out in older games, vs the smaller ones we now got in NH. In NH unless you are specifically fishing and looking at the fish, you'll easily miss the finned fish, in the previous games you'd immediately catch them out of the corner of your eye when near the water even if you did something entirely different.
Omg the wild world footage was incredibly nostalgic to me I used to spend hours and hours, sometimes all night, playing that game just running around or fishing
could always do past challenges in the past games, like the golden tools since the requirements are different. Not sure if every game is different or just NH, I think I only ever managed to get golden shovel in WW and that's it lmao
they're mostly the same, but the shovel has changed since WW. you only needed to leave it buried for a day and it would be a golden shovel the next day!
I only got a golden shovel and a golden slingshot, I think. Golden slingshot in WW has the same requirements as in NH “shoot down a certain amount of gifts and then there will be a golden balloon with the golden slingshot (or the diy in NH)”, but in WW it only takes like 30 gifts, if I remember correctly and in NH it”s 300.
Sad story: I caught a Coelacanth while visiting a friend, but before I left the island, my internet did a little blep, and disconnected us. It didn’t save the Coelacanth. I went back to catch another (cause their island was the only one with rain on it) and never found another
@@DagnelWould love to see you try this too, but as someone who was going for it for a while, I’m a bit salty. At first I figured the hints made it easy, you get clear instructions of what needs to be done where…but then I got to the home stretch and the well stopped giving me clear directions. Just “things are good, but with just a little push they could be better.” Wild World would be fun too, mainly coming off your misconceptions video. I commented about this there too: the thing you confirmed about specific spots where trees will grow, while neat for being able to plant a new tree where an old one was, is HUGE for going for perfect town status. I’ve since been marking every spot where a tree wilts. In City Folk too, even though I’m now pretty sure it doesn’t apply to CF.
I've reeled in 2 of these across 2 different islands in New Horizons and I never realized they were THAT rare! I knew they had to be a special fish since it is a Coelecanth, not exactly the most common fish in the world. But this is such a neat and interesting video! The older animal crossing games are so charming. Thank you Mr. Dagnel for another captivating video!!
I can't explain why, but I think these streams + video are some of my favorite you have ever done. There's something about catching the Coelacanth that's just so *Animal Crossing* and I love it.
Just caught a coelacanth by complete accident the other day in New Horizons, can confirm that fishing has gotten a lot more lenient and my fat fingers are perfectly okay with it
Thank you! After watching you catch it, it gave me confident to try again. Today at 4:50PM while on a rainy weather, I caught two Coelacanth within 5 minutes of each other. My childhood dreams is finally achieved!
I like to think that the Coelacanth in ACNH are just waiting for you to get 100 fish then they're like "alright boys, he's got enough fish, let's go raid that guys beach!".
Even if you were in a challenge it’s nice to see how Animal Crossing has evolved over the years…especially since today is the 2nd Anniversary to New Horizons. It’s cool to look back on where we came from
aaaahh this video was fantastic!! i thoroughly enjoy watching the older animal crossing games so this was such a treat! since you’re now into playing older games etc, would you be willing to try “getting to the first house upgrade in every game”? that would be cool! thanks for the video!!
was looking forward to this video, so nice to see the older games again! you should do more challenges that involve the older games cos theyre super cool lmao
Cool how you're branching out into the other games now! Here's an idea: Getting a golden tool in every single AC game (You can exclude NH if you want, considering you've done it two times at this point) If you want to spice up the challenge, you could get the silver tools in the games that have them, as well.
im a die hard fishing fan, and pro, when it comes to animal crossing. Never had too much issue distinguishing sizes, or reacting fast to reel in and being consecutive in catches, never missing one. This video is quite entertaining!
I like the serious Dagnel talking while stream Dag just continues to be disgusted by Diva and considers restarting. (it's ok she was also one of my starters with Cob and yes she is gone)
Really liked this one! :D For a challenge idea using older games, what about getting the rudest interaction you can? I've heard that the older games are really mean to the player and would love to see that idea expanded upon lolol
i had wild world on ds and coelacanth was my first fin fish catch. I was so hype cause i thought it was a shark because of the fin. Then caught it and said wtf is that. Had no idea.
I recently booted up my ACWW save and checked on what I've had... Farmed a few hundret million bells... had all art in the museum... all fossils donated as well... all insects... but one fish was missing... I love how that was the thing child me failed at doing... it's been what now? 16 years now... and I know I was ACWW addicted for atleast 1.5 years sooo that means this fish has been haunting me for around 15.5 years... in NH it's been like the first rare fish I ever caught... the irony..
ahh I remember struggling so hard while trying to catch sharks in WW when I was like 13, I feel like it was unnecessarily hard and I pretty much gave up because I didn't have the patience for it. seeing this video brought all that back and put a smile on my face, thanks for the video man!
Seeing the cherries in acgc made me remember the fruits I've had for each game. For those curious/comparing: acgc: apples acww: pears (other fruit: oranges) accf: cherries (other fruit: apples) acnl: apples (other fruit: peaches) acnh: peaches (other fruit: pears)
This was such a cool challenge! It's so funny that they nerfed fishing after the first game 😂. I'm pretty sure when I played ACGC as a kid I didn't fish very much lol but I fished a lot more in NL and NH especially because of the 5000 fish nook mile challege. It's probably for the best that they made fishing easier in the newer games.
Your videos make me want to continue on my City Folk world. I've only played for a few minutes because I was too lazy to go say hi to every villager for Tom Nook.
From what I saw with the older games here, I would have failed this challenge. I have a hard time in new leaf and in new horizons, I rarely try unless the shadow is huge. And I still need that dreaded string fish
Wild world has imo always had insane fish catching reaction time. I remember growing up playing wild world at like my sisters sports events and stuff on my ds and whenever there was a finned fish or potential for a rare fish I would have to buckle down and focus extra hard on the game, I would still miss the timing about 40% of the time. In the past year I've since got ACNH and within the first two days before my museum was even built i had caught like 9 whale sharks, a great white, oarfish, swordfish and finished nearly half the fish museum within that time. It is significantly easier than it was, not that that's an issue, though I do wish there was something I could toggle to make fishing a challenge again.
Animal Crossing for GameCube is by far my most played Animal Crossing (I wouldn’t put it past myself to say I’ve put about 100 days/2,400 hours into it) and I don’t ever remember the fishing being THAT difficult. That was crazy. Also, is there a super rare bug that’s in every single Animal crossing? If so, next challenge?
Somehow I managed to get 2 coelacanths in ACNL within about 5 minutes. I've caught it in ACNL and ACNH, pretty sure I never ended up catching one in ACWW and ACLGTTC.
I’m very curious how you got the 3DS to record without a capture card. It looks really good. Your videos are easy to binge to when I’m playing games and you have a very calming voice.
Challenge Idea: Collect and Upgrade Every App (by upgrade I mean have every feature - Camera/Pro Camera - Nook Miles/Nook Miles+ - Critterpedia - DIY Recipes/DIY Recipes+ - Custom Designs (/w Pro Designs and Portal) - Map - Happy Home Network - Room Sketch - Passport - Best Friends List - Rescue Service - Island Life 101 - Island Designer (/w All paths and Waterscaping and Cliffs) - Nook Shopping
One time in Animal Crossing Wild World I caught an ocean sunfish and it was the most magical experience, also I didn’t have internet in the early 2000s so had no idea the fish were based of the time of year lol, so it might have been easier for folks in the know, but it was MAGIC for me 😂💐🌻✨
Do not fear rat is here and i have always been.. anyways i love these videos and they always make me question life choices! Thank you! (btw i just love your videos)
I believe the first tool sold in Nook's Shop in the original Animal Crossing games is always a shovel and does not change until you buy one, so that is why he never switched to selling a fishing rod.
I literally caught one of those a couple days ago in AC GC and didn't even realize it was rare until right now. Yes, I was playing Animal Crossing GameCube.
I think the reason why you weren't finding a fishing rod in GC is because you need to spend a certain amount of money in the shop before it will appear.
I have been binge watching your videos and oh my what a nostalgy trip. I had completely forgotten he used to give us an uniform even, once I accidently changed and little me got so scared when he yelled at me 😶
this is my first video i’ve seen of yours and after watching i binged your other AC speed runs/challenges and your channel is super cool. also a random thing i kept thinking of when watching some of your other videos : you will always have a 1 star island until you get (i think) at least 7 villagers. so you can have a 3 star worthy island but it will register as 1 star until you have enough villagers
I have no knowledge or experience with older ac games, so I have nothing useful to contribute except that I'd love to see u do more videos/challenges with the older games!
Follow on Twitch! twitch.tv/Dagnel
Already did
you could speedrun getting every nook phone app
i did
Speedrun getting 1 million bells
Do you upload your streams anywhere? I missed some
I remember spending YEARS trying to catch a coelecanth in WW and when I caught one in New Horizons within the first month, I cried.
I only ever caught 1 before this video in WW, it was tough!
@@Dagnel Same. It was way harder than it needed to be.
exactly that happened to me yesterday lol
I know the struggle. Golden Trout and Barreleye hid from me more than once. Then gave up lol 😂
In pocket camp, the rarest fish to catch I think is a king koi, it took me like 2 months to catch it-
I would love to see comparisons of how long it takes to do the same task in ACGC vs ACNH. Like how long does it take to pay off your house in each game, or complete the bug or fish collection.

would be very interesting! thanks for the idea!
YESSSS!!!! i definitely played ACWW like a dumb kid and would love to see how long it would take to do tasks on full blast vs ACNH!!!!
"was i a dumb kid or was this game actually hard" is the number one thing i always wonder about my childhood games!
Ive played new leaf for 3 years with around 500 hours and have literally just payed off my final loan and i caught the golden stag for the first time only a few weeks ago. I payed off my new horizons loan in under a year (around 100 hours) and i think that new horizons is just overall easier

Thanks!
Whoa, Ginja Ninja, here? Thats really unexpected
Seeing you here is certainly is a pleasant surprise!!
it feels weird to see you commenting on one of dagnel's video's.... its just... unexpected....
The coelacanth was actually one of the easiest fish for me in acnh, I got it one of the first nights it rained! This is very impressive too 😂
it's definitely not then most difficult fish anymore. off the top of my head, the barreleye/stringfish/golden trout are all harder.
same!
Bro fr. I have spent hours on barreleye with no luck and the one time when I get rain I catch the coelacanth within 10 minutes.
I've found that easiest way to catch whatever you're looking for is to start the game & fish for 2 minutes with bait. Then, if you haven't caught what you want yet, restart the game & try again.
It's how I finished the fish portion of my museum.
Now if I could only get Redd to sell me the damn statue I need I can finally finish the whole thing!
@@caitlynstarrparrish If you find a day that Redd shows up then you can repeatedly restart that day to reroll the art he sells
Yeah, fish aren’t that hard to catch now, especially since the resolution allows you to recognize fish sizes. It also helps that there’s fish bait you can get to fish faster, and better sounds to identify when to reel in the fish. Hell, the only reason cast master is possible is the “go blind and wait for the sound” method.
It’s not the only reason it’s possible, I never miss a fish. Last time was because I was sipping tea and didn’t think that I’d need my hand to row the fish lol. I actually got the achievement super early, probably in april 2020.

I think it's definitely "dumb kid" syndrome!
Honestly it's more about patience, which children have none of. All the rare catches are out there, but it's gonna take time to find them.
Yeah, I feel you. I’ve been revisiting every game in the series recently, on emulator for GC to CF, but NL and NH are on legit hardware. I figured NL would be problematic when I couldn’t guarantee catches with save states, but that almost never came up; wasn’t long until I just naturally had every big and fish available to me without time travel (missed the giant beetle actually, but Tortimer Island’s perma-summer means I never actually miss it).

Seeing the older AC games is a treat. Real nostalgic.
They were a treat to play!
I find it very intresting how the evolved
i absolutely cannot shake the feeling that that *very first cast* was a coelacanth
i think it was too 😔
Does anyone else think that the OG gamecube version of animal crossing looks almost freakily smooth?
compared to Wild World, yes!
it's not being pixelated because it's being emulated (i think)
it's looks way better than wild world since the gamecube is a home console, while the ds is handheld. even then, the graphics shift is really jarring! i played new leaf first, and was really shocked to see how high quality city folk was in comparison!
For some reason I think the pixelation of wild world is extremely charming
Fun fact: GCN and City Folk are the only 2 Animal Crossings to run at 60 FPS
I was the first one between myself and my best friend to catch a coelacanth in Wild World, despite the fact that she had the game for way longer than me.

@mrziggyzaggy113 that's really really interesting, if that's true you wouldn't have to buy the shovel at all which is pretty cool!!! good research!!!
the fact that he doesn't say "that's impossible i won't do it" is what makes a great UA-camr
Well, it is possible
except for doing all the nook miles goals as fast as possible, but I wouldn't want to do that either.

That was a super fun episode! And it had me wanting to go back and play every version of animal crossing again haha! Thanks dagnel!✨🐠
Glad you enjoyed it! They're still a lot of fun, so go for it!
@@Dagnel I’m on it! Booting up wild world today!!
Not the straight white middle-aged man hat in the beginning.
I recently booted up my ACWW save and checked on what I've had... Farmed a few hundret million bells... had all art in the museum... all fossils donated as well... all insects... but one fish was missing... I love how that was the thing child me failed at doing... it's been what now? 16 years now... and I know I was ACWW addicted for atleast 1.5 years sooo that means this fish has been haunting me for around 15.5 years... in NH it's been like the first rare fish I ever caught... the irony..
Love the effort you put into your videos!👑❤️keep going :D
thank you!
I think this is the only situation where someone would be disappointing by a freaking Oarfish.
Tuna was actually the hardest fish for me
yet it only costs about half as much as Coelacanth
ahh I remember struggling so hard while trying to catch sharks in WW when I was like 13, I feel like it was unnecessarily hard and I pretty much gave up because I didn't have the patience for it. seeing this video brought all that back and put a smile on my face, thanks for the video man!
I love the idea of challenges that go thru multiple games,
Maybe you could do one for a rare bug in each game?
Seeing the cherries in acgc made me remember the fruits I've had for each game. For those curious/comparing:
acgc: apples
acww: pears (other fruit: oranges)
accf: cherries (other fruit: apples)
acnl: apples (other fruit: peaches)
acnh: peaches (other fruit: pears)
it feels so cool being early
this video gave me more nostalgia than i’ve had in months
I really enjoy this video! Honestly would like to see you do more smaller challenges in AC or mote challenges in the older games!
thanks, and I will!
For some reason, whenever Dagnel calls Timmy and/or Tommy a rat dispite knowing they're Tanukis(+the editing) is always hilarious to me. xD
This was such a cool challenge! It's so funny that they nerfed fishing after the first game 😂. I'm pretty sure when I played ACGC as a kid I didn't fish very much lol but I fished a lot more in NL and NH especially because of the 5000 fish nook mile challege. It's probably for the best that they made fishing easier in the newer games.
maybe! i do miss the difficulty though
I remember wild world more fondly than any other game ever. the title screen song is still stuck in my head.
Your videos make me want to continue on my City Folk world. I've only played for a few minutes because I was too lazy to go say hi to every villager for Tom Nook.
From what I saw with the older games here, I would have failed this challenge. I have a hard time in new leaf and in new horizons, I rarely try unless the shadow is huge. And I still need that dreaded string fish
when dag starts talking about the total catch requirement in another video 🤌
i love your videos, you’re probably my favorite content creator!!! keep up the great work
Thank you!
Wild world has imo always had insane fish catching reaction time. I remember growing up playing wild world at like my sisters sports events and stuff on my ds and whenever there was a finned fish or potential for a rare fish I would have to buckle down and focus extra hard on the game, I would still miss the timing about 40% of the time. In the past year I've since got ACNH and within the first two days before my museum was even built i had caught like 9 whale sharks, a great white, oarfish, swordfish and finished nearly half the fish museum within that time. It is significantly easier than it was, not that that's an issue, though I do wish there was something I could toggle to make fishing a challenge again.
Animal Crossing for GameCube is by far my most played Animal Crossing (I wouldn’t put it past myself to say I’ve put about 100 days/2,400 hours into it) and I don’t ever remember the fishing being THAT difficult. That was crazy.
Also, is there a super rare bug that’s in every single Animal crossing? If so, next challenge?
Maybe the Giant Stag? Most of the rare beetles weren't added until WW
Somehow I managed to get 2 coelacanths in ACNL within about 5 minutes.
I've caught it in ACNL and ACNH, pretty sure I never ended up catching one in ACWW and ACLGTTC.
I’m very curious how you got the 3DS to record without a capture card. It looks really good. Your videos are easy to binge to when I’m playing games and you have a very calming voice.

This was such a hilarious challenge I’d love to see more challenges like this involving all the AC games again
Thanks!
seeing the old animal crossing games brought back soo many memories, nice video by the way!
Thanks!
Okay, now do it in stardew valley
One time in Animal Crossing Wild World I caught an ocean sunfish and it was the most magical experience, also I didn’t have internet in the early 2000s so had no idea the fish were based of the time of year lol, so it might have been easier for folks in the know, but it was MAGIC for me 😂💐🌻✨
it was magic! i had dial up so semi-limited access to that info!
Do not fear rat is here and i have always been.. anyways i love these videos and they always make me question life choices! Thank you! (btw i just love your videos)
Thanks!
had so much fun watching you do this!❤
Glad you enjoyed!
I always get excited to see what you come up with next
I believe the first tool sold in Nook's Shop in the original Animal Crossing games is always a shovel and does not change until you buy one, so that is why he never switched to selling a fishing rod.
I literally caught one of those a couple days ago in AC GC and didn't even realize it was rare until right now.
Yes, I was playing Animal Crossing GameCube.
Oh man this hits me with nostalgia for the original game and makes me want to play it now
go for it!
I catch fish with sound, and press when there’s a big splash, so I reccomend that for any other fishing you do :)
wow, that’s really impressive you did that! now catch one in *happy home designer*
I think the reason why you weren't finding a fishing rod in GC is because you need to spend a certain amount of money in the shop before it will appear.
What a delightful concept! And surprisingly humane for your standards
Thanks! And yes, it was nice not spending 3 weeks recording and editing!
Great Video, and I had no idea about the catch requirement in new horizons so thanks for talking about that.
I have been binge watching your videos and oh my what a nostalgy trip. I had completely forgotten he used to give us an uniform even, once I accidently changed and little me got so scared when he yelled at me 😶
1:55 made me laugh so hard i fell out my bed
That didn’t take nearly as long as I thought it was going to take
Yeah I thought it would be closer to ~10 hours
this is my first video i’ve seen of yours and after watching i binged your other AC speed runs/challenges and your channel is super cool.
also a random thing i kept thinking of when watching some of your other videos : you will always have a 1 star island until you get (i think) at least 7 villagers. so you can have a 3 star worthy island but it will register as 1 star until you have enough villagers
Thank you!
You made me remember Leigh existed. We need all the old villagers back :(
I have no knowledge or experience with older ac games, so I have nothing useful to contribute except that I'd love to see u do more videos/challenges with the older games!
I will definitely!
animal crossing pocket camp: Am I a joke to you?
this is probably his shortest speed run in a long long time
it was a relief lol
