Everything You Never Knew About Animal Crossing for GameCube feat. Chuggaaconroy

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 3 มิ.ย. 2024
- Animal Crossing is a game with so many secrets, oddities, and surprises that it really takes a careful eye to discover all that the developers put into the game. I've played the GameCube version far more than any other release, and wanted to share some of the most well-hidden aspects of the game!

History
This project was originally started in 2015 as part of my Hoaxtacular series which covered rumors and hoaxes about games. The series ended up being canceled before I could make it to the Animal Crossing episode, so I purposed the script a couple years later. It ended up seeing many revisions and stayed that way for a while, until I had the idea to give it some life by asking Chuggaaconrory if he would be interested in doing some narrations. He was into the idea so a few months later we got the recording done in late 2018. Shortly after, my apartment flooded and left me without the equipment to continue working on the video for most of last year. Finally with New Horizons right around the corner, I made it a priority to finish the video before the game came out as a sort of celebration of how far the franchise has come. I'm really happy with the final result and the addition of Chuggaa really made the video shine. I hope you enjoy!
Great video, and it's doing pretty well too. See, I told you making videos on obscure or forgottern things is more interesting than "lost media" and it is because they do exist or happened, most people just don't know about it or don't know where to find them.
Lost media has become the new Creepypastas: lame, cliche'd, full of BS and everybody comes up with one every second.
Keep up the good work and that animated intro was most unexpected, indeed. Kudos! (I wish I could put ROMS on my cards, I wonder if you could use one of those Japan-only SD adapters, it does work with Doubutsu no Mori e+, albeit for other stuff).
Two things to note about the NES games that weren't mentioned in the video.
First, there were in fact two official Animal Crossing web pages by Nintendo (one for the US and one for the UK) and each had the code generator for the NES games Donkey Kong JR, Donkey Kong 3, Clu Clu Land D and Soccer. Why is this important? The NES game Punch-Out!! was only made available via code generator on the UK website, never the US website. Luckily, the codes generated worked in all regions, so US players could also use the UK website to get Punch-Out!! back in the day. This why Punch-Out!! sometimes gets lumped into the forbidden NES game category while the other four games don't. Few people in the US knew that it was in fact the UK website only that was giving it out.
Second, from I've read over the years in several Animal Crossing forums is that the forbidden NES game Super Mario Bros. did in fact get an official release method by Nintendo, but only in Japan. Basically the legit method offered by Nintendo in Japan was through a magazine offer/contest and it worked in a similar manner to how one would get Mew or Celebi in Pokemon via the legit method through Nintendo. If you won the magazine contest/offer you would be given instructions on how to mail you memory card to Nintendo. Several weeks later via mail you would get the memory card back from Nintendo with Super Mario Bros. attached as a gift (similar to the free gift that came on the memory card that was included with a new copy of Animal Crossing).
wait you forgot to talk about THE GHOST, and is there was anyway TO GET A HALLOWEEN MASK like the villagers
Hi
hey man can you do harry jalapeño psx cancel game by sony in 1997/1998???
Fun fact: waking Tom Nook from his sleep makes him charge 20% more bells for items you buy and he gives you 30% less bells when you sell him something. And when you leave he tells you to never wake him up again, lmao
Definitely not worth waking him up when you're on a budget

The constant bullying and threat of being murdered
so true
Ive been considering getting an emulated version to try it out since I don't own a gamecube
Because the OG version of GC Animal Crossing was called "Animal Forest"
Man, I wish there were rumors like this for the newer games.
SAME. I was too young to really explore the internet back then, but it's always seemed like such a fun part of experiencing games.
SAMEEEEE
I remember in like 2nd grade, before i could use the internet, a friend told me to unlock Lakitu, i had to input a secret code to race him, and you had to beat him to unlock him
Yeah, I enjoyed the mystery while it lasted.
Dang internet
The way Resetti's music starts up the instant you get handed the present from the code makes it seem like he just landed the most epic prank of all time and finally got you back for aggravating him on purpose so many times.

I had a friend in grade school who was notorious for spreading wild lies about video games. He once told me there's a very specific date you can set your GC Animal Crossing game to called "Doomsday" (he also associated it with some kind of bankruptcy event, crazy!) and if you set it to that date and load up your town everything would be on fire, and any money you drop on the ground would instantly burn up and disappear.
The kinds of things you fall for when you're a kid.
I still remember trying to unlock Luigi in Mario Sunshine and Waluigi in M64DS

That friend reminds me of Jay from The Inbetweeners
Joseph Walsh ugh those are the worst people
Don't even get me started on trying to unlock sonic, tails and knuckles for super smash on GC. T_T
I think what makes this game so magical is the feeling that you never really have a complete understanding of what could happen. Just when you think you know how everything in the game works, a villager paints your roof against your will. They do aerobics and sports, there’s a well gnome, nothing feels rigid or scripted because there’s so much stuff that only shows up once and you’re left thinking what else is out there that you haven’t seen.
@Rooby Roo yes I miss the rude animals and aguring :(
@Rooby Roo the villagers argue in NH. I've seen it multiple times
@Rooby Roo that's interesting. I saw it at least twice yesterday lol
@Rooby Roo depends on the neighbors. I have two that constantly fight. And one that always gets mad when I talk to her even once. The villagers seem much more interesting now. Though anything is better then NL dialogue that was bland and literally the same lines daily. NH villagers even get uppity or mad if you talk to them to much at a time or in a day. I think a huge or big issue nobody seems to really about is that the new games after GQ were very seemingly bright and cheery. Three original was darker colors and more visibly moody, like you're lost deep in a forest and trapped in the darkness from all the trees blocking out the sun. The moodyness gave way to feeling like anything could happen good or bad and had a more mystical air about it. The games after all seemed like "Look at all the cute happy animals,, let's be friends" Where the original is more like ".. Dear journal, my neighbor was carrying an axe today. I'm buying a new locking door first thing in the morning"
New horizons is intensely boring.
Man, it makes me so happy to see confirmation that the whale exists. For YEARS, I would try to tell people i saw it, and every time I would just get yelled at for trolling.
I remember buying a gba and link cable just to see the island. I did see the whale once because it was a rumor at school and the internet but I wasn't convinced so I spent and entire afternoon looking for him and I did find him after a couple of hours. When I went to school that Monday and told everyone,the guy who told me said it was a joke.
I never told anyone but looking back I think I remember seeing it once.
I swear, the GameCube Animal Crossing was ahead of its time! Though the graphics show age, it's still a highly playable game!
So, there's one thing about the actual disc that many may not know about... Once the game has loaded to the title screen, you can actually *remove the disc* and it'll function perfectly fine.
This is due to the fact that it's an N64 game port, and it's actually small enough to run on the GameCube's RAM without having to reference the disc.
I discovered that accidentally, as I took poor care of my game discs as a young child... Games would often misread, so imagine my surprise when the machine obviously gave up reading the disc, but the game kept running!
I hope you enjoyed that little tid-bit.
A lot of PS2 games do that too. It's interesting
Don't save two files like this you get a demon face and the game become dead causing full file corruption and needing a new game if you wanna replay.
@@TrickityHouses that sounds like a kid's rumor
@@catattack7639 I know lol but this happened to me. We had 2 gamecubes and I started the game and my sister took the memory card to play at the same time and saved. then I saved. After that my character had a demon face (gyroid face) and the whole thing went to shit.
@@TrickityHouses oof. Interesting
Thank you for having me! I learned so much when reading over the script for this video. It actually ended a rumor for me! I had a friend in elementary school who was a huge liar, very full of himself, and tried convincing everybody he was a self-made multi millionaire. In fourth grade. Until at least eighth grade when I fell out of contact. One day, he told me he saw a whale in Animal Crossing and, by that point, I'd learned to just nod along with his words but not take them seriously. I couldn't believe he was actually telling the truth when I read about it and went to go look it up! It makes me wonder if he was truthful about anything else I ignored.
That story reminds me a bit of the book/movie/musical "Big Fish".
LOVE YOU CHUGGAA
Fun fact: the Villager's hair coming out of his hat isn't really hair...they're devil horns.
Just kidding! 😂
I keep thinking that they look like devil horns
Hey man are you doing a new horizons playthrough?
Was it you who mentioned in some old Let's Play the story of an elementary school friend who was a liar, told stories like digging up dinosaur bones in his backyard, and then when he told you about a Pokémon having Pokérus when left at a Pokémon center you didn't believe him?
Only for you to years later find out Pokérus was real?
-Or maybe thats a story from some ancient YuriOfWind video...-
Oh my god.
My brother (then 10) never let me (then 5) play animal crossing on gc. But one day when he wasnt at home, I decided to open animal crossing. I dont know why but I decided to spend some money on his house debt. When I stepped out of the house everything glitched. I panicked and I cried. I even cried so much that I threw up. I was so scared and even more scared of my brother what he would do. However my father just reset the gc and everything was normal. We told my brother but he didnt know either. Later when I got acww I was really scared I would glitch again so I never paid my debts xD
*Tom Nook stands in the corner, wielding a baseball bat*
Lol
hate to break it to ya but he found out. your brother for sure. found out. :) Mr Resetti told on you :0
What was the glitch like?
You, a five year old, decided that out of ANYTHING you could do in a game full of charming colourful characters, the best thing to do was pay off your brother’s debt.
Have you considered going into real estate?
Mystery in games nowadays is rare now that the internet dissects and shares every single detail the first week of release (or in some instances weeks before release)
Matt Cy exactly, I was really young when these things happen so I never actually experienced very many of them myself, but I just love hearing about these.
The only "mysteries" or "theories" we really get nowadays come BEFORE releases. Most of them are just ideas and what ifs... It's a bit sad I guess, becuase when you think there's a mystery, there's someone on the internet who debunks it.
This is why I try to avoid spoilers for games, so I can enjoy it and think of my own mysteries, albeit they are rare.
@@BakaTaco Yeah totally. Even trailers tend to be too much. If I like a game I have to virtually hide in a bunker. I love being surprised by games.
Rooby Roo I love how you act like the internet becoming smarter is a bad thing
@@callinater6133 I don't think that's the point Matt is making.
It's more about the internet taking a bit of the spark away from games. As in, it's very easy to debunk myths or theories nowadays or it spoils content for people that want to experience the game as a surprise.
I remember seeing the whale though I didn't know it was supposed to be a whale or even recognize it as a fish. I just thought the water was darker on that side of the boat since I was always too busy reading kapp'n's songs and only saw it out of the corner of my eye.
The Resetti music thing is so funny. It honestly seems like something Resetti would do if he got too fed up with you! Like, "if you're having such a hard time remembering to save, then how about I drill it in?!"
7:13 WAIT! sooo this was one of the first animated wallpapers? Meaning Animal Crossing New Horizons wasn't the first game to add animated wallpapers, but inatead animated floors.
Wait, it has that?
@@idothefunnies1636 i got cloud flooring that gives it a fog like effect near the floor
the wallpaper is in ACNH (Animal Crossing New Horizons)(the crowd one)
A few more things you might not know about ACGC:
If you store your turnips on the island, or get them into the lost and found they will never spoil. You can visit the island without taking Kappn's boat by getting a snowball to push you into the ocean.
You can push villagers into the river by hitting them with your net while they're on a bridge and then pushing them off.
You can duplicate any item you can store in a drawer by performing a variation of the walking on tables glitch. This same glitch will also allow you to float items in the air in your house, as well as go outside the bounds of your room and place items there.
You can also duplicate the bells stored in your savings account by saving travel data on a second memory card, removing the second memory card, loading the game, withdrawing bells and placing them on the ground, and then saving and quitting. Then you put the second memory card back in and load the travel data. The bells will be on the ground and your bank account will show the original balance, effectively duplicating the bells.
You can also turn your face into a gyroid face by saving travel data on a second memory card and loading your file from your main card without returning home first.
If you reset enough times Resetti will pretend to erase your save data, making the screen go black.
If you talk to K.K. slider at just the right time Resetti will show up in the background during the credits.
There is a hidden spot on the item screen that allows you to change the background pattern.
Any letters saved at the post office (and the items attached to them) are not deleted when you start a new town on the same memory card.
You can connect your GBA to download some of the NES games to the system's memory and play them away from your GameCube. You can then come back and sync with the cube to save progress.
The GBA can also be used as a pattern maker. Patterns created this way can be saved at the Able Sister's shop.
Animal Crossing is the only GameCube game released outside of Japan that is able to connect to the e-reader.
The town featured on the loading screen is stored in the game's memory and can be accessed via cheating device.
ACGC shares a debug mode and various lines of code with the LoZ: Ocarina of Time and is thought to have been built on the same engine. This is most likely due to the fact that the game was originally meant to be an asynchronous multiplayer RPG released on the N64 DD.
That's all I got for now...
sunmarsh wait, so if I save letters on a town, delete the town, and start a new town, my saved letters will still be there?
@@HeHe169 Yes. It actually mentions that in the manual of the game, oddly enough.
oh my god the kk slider resetti thing actually happened to me! i was starting to feel like i was crazy and my mind just made that memory out of nothing.
The gyroid-face one might have another possibility, when you are going to go to a friend then quitting
I actually have Ice Climbers on my old AC save. Never knew it was rare.
Me either i had a room with Balloon Fighter, Ice Climbers, and 2 others ones,. Go figure
A buddy of mine bought into all the Nintendo hype so I had all the e-reader stuff on my original AC save. Reaaaaaly wish I'd kept better care of my things
I had it too! My neighbor had all the cards they sold.
I have a bunch of the e-Reader cards including that one.
I could have sworn that I had Punch Out in AC on the Gamecube, because that's the only way I ever played the game was through the in-game NES
There really is something magical about this game. I remember the first time I played this in elementary school! I was immediately hooked, and remember asking for a gamecube for my birthday in 2003, and hoping that if I died, I could play the game in heaven. This game was so unique from any other game I played at the time.
Speaking of rumors, my friend (age 9) would tell me (age 10) that she had a boyfriend in the game, and I believed her. She also told me that shovels would break if I used it on rocks. We also believed that if you didn't feed your character, they would die. There is always a mysterious aura around this game....it feels like whenever I obtain anything, it's special. I loved New Leaf, but this game still has a special place in my heart.
Yeah man I started playing maybe in 2nd or 3rd grade it's such a big open game so I would think it would have lots of "problems" but overall I love it man definitely top 10 ever on games and I still play the original occasionally
I was so addicted to this game. I had all four characters fully paid off/upgraded and a massive inventory. Unfortunately my nephews were playing my Cube when one of them yanked the memory card while it was auto-saving whatever they were playing and it corrupted the card. I made a couple half-hearted attempts at starting over but it just seemed too daunting a task to get back where I was.
A couple things I noticed though:
-Before planting a mega-money tree, chop down a tree within the same acre. I forget the number now but there is a limit on the number of trees that can grow in one acre.
-If it's raining at 1-5am, walk back and forth all along the beach and look for coelacanth shadows. They're most plentiful in this time/weather. I've caught about a dozen in a single morning, especially around 4am. Clear your inventory before going down and get an easy 100,000-150,000 bells selling all your fish when Nook's opens.
-Every day, two trees in town contain items. If you're patient go acre by acre and shake every non-fruit tree in town (note: you will get stung.). Once in a while a tree will have a rare item that's typically only available during a lottery or from merchants like Crazy Redd, Sahara, etc.
-If a neighbor is in a cheerful sing-songy mood, keep talking to them as long as it lasts. Once in a while they'll gift you something out of nowhere, occasionally a rare item.
-And don't let kids play your Cube with the same memory card you use for your AC save data.
yeet the children
I totally get what you mean with it feeling daunting (also I know this comment is old, so maybe you've done this by now) but I've found that it helped me to not try to replicate what I once had in a save. Just starting a new one with minimal goals, and seeing where it goes, and understanding that it won't be what it was and accepting that has helped me have really fun games!
Holy hell, the whale was real?! Back when I was addicted to Animal Crossing, I used to have dreams that I was fishing and the massive shadow would show up, bite and pull me into the water. Creeped me the hell out, but I thought it was just in my head.
wait a minute what. i remember having at least one dream exactly like that where i was fishing and an enormous shadow appeared. i don’t remember what it did or what i did with it but it spooked me still, and just now finding out about the whale’s actual existence is disturbing me immensely
I feel like a lot of people that have played Animal Crossing have had a dream with a giant fishing shadow.
But I'm still spooked that in my dream, my character was fishing on a wooden boat. The whale sized shadow appeared.
The only games I had played we're City Folk and New Leaf. There was no reason for my character to be in the ocean on a wooden boat.
Yes!!! I've had this dream too but I only remember seeing the giant shadow that was it I just stared at it 😅 kinda boring but this dream was kinda recent actually
YES same this is a shared experience, i had the dream where i was fishing in the river and a massive shadow appeared and i had that heart drop moment where i was like 'don't screw it up, this is a once in a lifetime chance', and just as i caught it and it was huge, covering half the screen (don't remember what it looked like, probably just a big round-like / ovally shape) :O i felt legendary and yet also nervous, and in a way it is
Featuring Emile? Seriously? Damn, this is gonna be good
Yep. It seems like he is like cheese. You put him on anything and it gets ridiculously good
My thoughts exactly! He makes any video better.
Korinu Let's Plays hopefully there will be a few hidden things that take a while

Man this video brought my nostalgia.
My grandma loves animal crossing and looking at this brought me back to the good old days.
My grandma poured hours into this game and unlocking everything.
of every game that I've seen animal crossing had a lot of rumors and if he stumped trying to get these hoaxs to work.
I remember some of these and especially the master sword one.I
The amount of care that was put into the series was amazing and I'll never forget it.
God I loved the original AC. I remember the only reason I actually got it was because my Elementary school friends told me about how I could make my own designs! The first design I ever made was of a Treecko--was obsessed with the Pokemon at the time--and I honestly was obsessed with the game from then on. I remember Tips N Tricks magazines had a few acgc patterns in them (a Hillary Duff one comes to mind). Man, I miss being 8 and discovering everything in ACGCN for the first time! I'm so excited for NH, I can't wait to make my own custom paths! I'm really hoping that pro designs allow for more colors and a bigger canvas size because that would be wonderful!!!
I see your comments on other videos.
same
audie is your grandma
I played this on emulator recently and wanted to share the experience with my brother, who no longer lived in the same house as me. Fun fact! Dolphin emulator will accept a google docs folder as a valid location for a memory card file! So while we couldn't play at the same time, we played animal crossing in the same town just like when we were kids.
Nice
Note: please be careful with emulators, i once got a trojan for trying to emulate pokemon black/white, if your antivirus doesn't detect it, you should be fine
@@redusto4505 for GameCube you can be pretty sure that Dolphin emulator is safe. Just be really sure you're getting it from the official website. I definitely messed up once trying to get a PS1 emu though.
clorox Emulators are rarely the issue as long as you use the well-known/trusted ones. The ROMs themselves are where the danger is, and even then, as long as you do research on safe sites, you should be fine. I personally use Vimms Lair and The Eye .eu the most.
Biological Perfection has a video on hacking the game to actually catch the whale, so it is indeed possible. It came out of the water as an arapaima and its text had Able Sisters speech.
Just watched that! It's really interesting.
That's me lol
Biological Perfection i might have been just sleep deprived but i remember years ago i saw a huge shadow of a fish in the river on AC:CF. do you know of any evidence for that?
@@whogaze How big was that shadow? In City Folk, you could catch the arapaima, which only spawned in the river and was one of the biggest fish in the game. However, it wasn't that big compared to the whale encountered in the GC version of the game.
Biological Perfection It definitely wasn’t the arapaima, i was pretty die hard into the game so i filled the museum up a few times. it was like double, or triple the size. no where near as big as the whale here
In elementary school, when I was 7 or 8 years old, I convinced everyone in my class that, if you trigger Resetti too often in one day, he would launch your house into the sky and you would get a cutscene of your character stepping out of their door, falling and landing in a pit where your house used to be. You would never get your house back.
Can't believe my classmates believed me lol
That beta map glitch is so cool! Props to whoever figured that out.
Anyone else remember the gyroid face glitch that occurred when you swapped out memory cards during a train trip. It scarred 10 year old me so much I took a loooong break from the game.
That was an Easter egg, not a glitch. But yes, it was absolutely terrifying.
The gyroid face and inventory/bells being cleared out is intentional, since it's meant to keep things from glitching out.
Gyroids just scare me in general tbh I can't stand them
I actually liked to have that gyroid look on my character xF
man there is so much little stuff unique to the first game like the lily pads, the exclusivity of the island(never owned a GBA/GC connector. also i dont know how the islands work in the games that are pre-New Leaf.), those weird big flat bush things, the dump, buildings being at an angle. i kind of miss it.
Another small Easter egg with K.K. Slider is if you talk to him at exactly 8:15pm and request a song, during the credit roll, you can see Resetti make an appearance in the background.
Y'all this makes me remember when our mom printed a huge stack of codes and over the years we'd lose pages and theyd get scuffed up yet we still tried our best to save them all.
I bet someone's eventually gonna figure out the e-card dotcodes that trigger the Truly-Forbidden Two.
Knowing how determined people are? Probably.
People have already generated custom e-reader cards to be used in an emulator, and I once spoke to someone who claimed to be able to make custom dot codes as well (I think the dot code generation was cracked a while back now?). But so far as I know, no one has released anything publicly.
This has already been done but you would need a very specific type of paper and a very precise printer to correctly print the dotcode.
@@Cuyler oh hey funny seeing you here so soon
What is "The Truly-Forbidden two" ?
My friend claimed that if you reset your game enough times, Resetti will get so mad that he’ll throw you into the sea and you have to press A as fast as you can to escape. If you don’t escape you drown and it deletes your save file. No one believed him but no one could exactly prove otherwise 😂 he swore on it
Buzz231094 well he DOES threaten to erase your game file and he fools the player by turning the screen black. But then he says he was just kidding but he does get really mad at you. I remember I always anticipated him to do that. He finally did it and I was so scared.
this sounds like a bad creepypasta
Microsoft Windows probably is, must’ve been mistaken for something real
Resetti’s going to leave you sleeping with the fishes
@@Sonicxis4ever When he made my screen go black I had a mini heart attack as a kid lmfao Good times
I love how one of these villagers always wears the Guy Fieri outfit
What I love about Animal Crossing GCN is how mysterious it is. It's been nearly 20 years since the game was released (in the U.S. at least) and there are still tons of things I haven't discovered or experienced in the game. There's something about it that can never be recaptured in the subsequent AC titles and it's why I'm not interested when a new one comes out.
My feelings exactly
Why I like new horizons, we don’t know half of the stuff in that game, and we wouldn’t know for while if we didn’t have dataminers
Part of the magic of AC(GC) is how the world managed to feel mysterious and alien, I feel. Like the gyroids, which have no real analogue irl. It just FELT like something bad could happen.
lmao my friend said to me once when we were playing wild world “my cousins town has a train station and her house is a big pink castle she says you can unlock it” and I’m like sure jan
playground rumours for Nintendo games 😭 I miss them
The odds of me finding this in the same hour are rare, just having randomly decided to look up your channel again. Either way, amazing video as always. Keep it up!
I firmly believe that the game cube was the best version because when I played it in elementary school one of the villagers was so mean that they made me cry and you just can't get that in the newer games
I remember when one of my villagers asked me about my favorite sport and I said snowboarding, because 1080 Avalanche is one of my favorite games. That villager responded saying they also loved that game and I freaked out.
i kinda want brutus to be real, seems like a cool concept. i wish people would be freaked out by things like this now, sparking creepy theories and rumors. i don't see many people talking about animal crossing nowadays, with only a few of my friends playing it as well as me. i could go for a freaky horror story in animal crossing every once in awhile
The switch to Emile's voice without warning got me by surprise, as I just clicked on the video without reading the full title.
There's actually another infamous Rumor in Animal Crossing where Mr. Resetti would Delete your WHOLE town if you Reset the game Way too Many times. Though this rumor is false
Although he does threaten to do so (yes I reset that many times)
He pretends to eventually.
He “does”, he just takes away your current clothing. (To the deafault ofc)
Great video. I remember the breaking into tom nook store. I bet I got it from gamewinners. I miss that site.
Whoa gamewinners takes me back! That was one of the sites my friends and I would get all our cheats from, even though they ended up being wrong most of the time lol
The issue with NH is plainly: You no longer seem to be "just another" fish in the pond with a village revolving around you, but, like in all other more "creative" games, you control pretty much everything.
It's no longer a friend simulator. It's just a building game now. There's nothing really unique about it. All villagers feel the same and the game could go without having them. There's so many things to do it seems with endless possibilities but without any SOUL
It's so weird that I remember experiencing so many of these "rare events" but
never registered them as being especially strange at the time
god im so wasted and this is the most i’ve ever been invested in a video, thank you.
14:10 Jolyne Joestar on the wanted poster,and she totally breaks out of prison in part 6.

This is one of the most interesting videos i have ever seen on youtube, as my memory serves. it’s really fun! thank you!
I instantly recognized the code at 7:55 as the one for 30,000 bells. Memories haha - this was a great video! Super informative and really communicated how much this game means to you which was cool to see. Thank you for sharing!
I encountered the whale twice in the pond in my town. The first time i got my friend to try catch it the first time and she failed, however I saw it AGAIN and was able to catch it myself. Its an arapaima!
This is a great video! Really showed me how much I didn't know about one of my favorite games. This was super fun to watch, especially with New Horizons coming out soon. Keep up the great work!
It’s so weird to finally have confirmation about the whale! That’s a rumor I heard several times as a kid that I never realized surfaced as a fact.
This game got me through my parent's divorce. Waking up at 7am just to play every morning meant more to me than anything.
Woah chuggaaconroy?!?! I totally grew up watching this guy! Thinking about re-watching his animal crossing let's play. Nice nostalgia wave right there.
That's surprising you've now got animation on your logo.
For so many years I’ve had dreams about giant shadows in the water in animal crossing, well before I knew about the whale, when I learned about it I got chills lmao
Chuggaconroy, that's a name I haven't heard in a long time.
I haven't been this excited for a video in a long time!
You're walking along, minding your own business, and suddenly you spot your favourite villager:
Shia LaBeouf.
I played this version just last night, and I can say that it's very very enjoyable! I played the other version like Pocket Camp, Wild World, City Folk, New Leaf but Game Cube version is very entertaining for me! Villagers are rude but hilarious it makes me laugh! I love talking to them XD
The letter 1:10 says: “here i come” btw!
kayra ty :)
That is terrifying
I vaguely remember seeing the Whale in a pond just big enough for it as a child. Probably a dream though.
Someone else commented about this happening too.

Man this brought back some heavy nostalgia, the sounds especially. I played ac gc for hours on end as a kid lmao. It was a total impulse grab, I remember getting it at toys r us and just thinking the box looked neat. What a great choice.
I remember seeing the whale shadow. I didn’t realize it was so uncommon. I’m also kinda bummed they got rid of the resetti hole and nook at night. Those would’ve been so cool to see back in the day. Even now actually.
There’s a translation version of the Japanese version online
that beta town really reminds me of a dream i vaguely remember a long time back, where i was in some weird glitchy animal crossing town and all the names were messed up and the textures weren't right
Great job on this video! 👍 I learned so much :D Very cool to have chuggaaconroy here too! You guys rly surpassed my expectations 😊
Around 19:30
My exact feelings. Despite owning City Folk, New Leaf and New Horizons, all games that are infinitely more polished and have more to do, I always come back to this game.
Missed an "A" in Emile's name lol. Also HYPE
Oh my god i remember when my siblings printed every code out and it was like 2 or 3 pages stapled. Very vague but I still remember those magical papers LOL
Im so hyped to watch this. I love your channel 🙌🏽
Im still fairly new to playing the GCN version. So i love these videos!
I heard that the mail thing to keep villagers in the town is after sending because they usually respond to the letter after receiving it.
I’m honestly shocked at how much I missed it while playing this all those years ago.
LOVE this video. SENDING ME BACK TO MY 2010 TH-cam CHILDHOOD WITH CHUG!!!
I had this sudden craving for history and am at the moment was studying on my animal crossing lore and decided to look up some videos. I didn't read the title of this video untill half way through when I reconized a certin voice. Gues to say I was very happy. Also I gave you a subcribe :3 i hope this makes you smile.
This video just gave me an interest in the GameCube version of Animal Crossing! 🤓
It's awesome!
I didn't realize the whale thing was so rare -- it happened during my 24/7 stream. I'd have to look through over a thousand hours of footage though.
gosh this gets me thinking about all the silly rumors i'd hear at school!
rumors about coco deleting your town, rumors about being able to kill animals with the axe if you got it just right, rumors about special dialogue from blanca if you drew certain things on her face...
i was a sucker and believed all the rumors!!!
Animal Crossing is pretty amazing. I wish I wasn't dumb and sold my old Gamecube copy. I used to play it everyday after High School, and Balloon Fight became my favorite NES game. I did end up catching every fish, and getting the golden rod, but the bugs I never did. I always had a hard time with them. Thanks for the video. It brought up great memories.
The GameCube Animal Crossing was my favorite.
If you really want to use the master sword as an axe just go use the base one in botw that's basically all it's good for anyway
I find it the most fun to play animal crossing around the winter holidays, just cause I got this game on GameCube for Christmas one year, when the GameCube was already old, and my siblings and I grew up with animal crossing and we got into it on Christmas morning!
Oooh, I really liked this one! Easily your best work yet!
"There isn't anyone by that name in town" so if you make a new character with that name they could receive it? If so, what if player(s) share name with a villager (and/or each other)?
That would be interesting to test. I assume the game handles Player mail and Villager mail separately- so even if two Roalds exist in one town it would depend on which one was picked from the address list (which separates the Player and Villager names)
@@LSuperSonicQ I assumed so, but even then the same text couldn't be used, as there would be someone by that name in town
wait so Gulliver has been drifting in the ocean for years and just landed in new horizons? O. O
No he also had a spaceship and was an astronaut sometimes
This game is my favorite AC game as well, hands down. There's so much charm to it, from the music, the characters, the dialogue, and the Easter eggs. I remember my friend telling me 2 of the rumors you mentioned 12 or 13 years, namely, the one about waking Nook up and the whale shadow rumor. I tried to do the Nook one, but since I have the American Animal Crossing, it didn't work, so I wrote it off. I had no idea that the Japanese version had it until now! As for the whale, I never saw it either.
On another note, the existence of the universal codes still baffle me to this day. I remember thinking to myself, "Why would Nintendo put these codes in the game?" You can get the golden tools with them! And my goodness, I never knew how many random things you could get from them as well, like the Resetti theme constantly playing or getting your own Pokemon Pikachu 😂
I remember pushing around animals all the time in City Folk thinking it was the most hilarious thing ever. Was sad when I tried it in New Leaf and got no response. Also hey, it's Chuggaa! Love you dude!
14:13 Now I may be wrong, but the picture on the right looks like Jolyne Kujo from part 6 of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure
That's because the Master Sword is for grass, not trees!
Omg, I literally loved staying up all night watching chuggaconoroy
Watching this & the "Why I haven't played Animal Crossing in 18 months" really helped paint a picture of what Animal Crossing means to so many people. I'm glad I get to be one of those people.
6:08 "In this moment, the NES is euphoric."
"Not because of any phony developer's blessing, but because of it's own intelligence."
Next time please do an lost media searching episode !
This video reminds me of those rumors about the secret area at Shrunk’s theater in Animal Crossing City Folk tbh! Also very cool video loved it a ton
This video melts my heart.
I still play this game too, and seeing these rumors is so nostalgic :D
BUT!
I do believe you can obtain The legend of Zelda!
You do however, need ta make a town called Hyrule, name your character Link, and enter a password by Nook.
Also, I recall one time seeing the post office pelican flying by the dump, next to the post office.
Although, that could be my child brain switching up things...
Anyhow, thanks for the video! :)
The debug universal codes are super interesting. I love how they tied the code that turns on Resetti's theme to a BOOT of all things. Unused animal crossing stuff is wild, such as Wild World's building seeds.
Woah! chuggaaconroy?!
The reason I think this title is the one that will always be the most magical is because back when this game was released on the N64, both Nintendo of Japan and Nintendo of America were just throwing ideas at the wall and seeing what stuck. Not only that, but both groups threw ideas at each other and they just kept adding things and adding things until it’s GameCube release. There’s probably a decent amount of things about that game that are still unknown to this day just because of how much passion went into developing it.
Great video I really love your channel and look forward to seeing more new videos
