Reset Surveillance Center

The Resetti Surveillance Center is a location found in and  - the structure in which Mr. Resetti and his brother, Don, live and work. In City Folk, the center is located at the eastern end of the city, behind two traffic cones in front of the tunnel leading out of the city proper; in New Leaf, on the other hand, the facility is available as a public works project at the cost of 368,000 Bells.

In its initial appearance in the, the Resetti Surveillance Center is located in the tunnel at the eastern end of the city, its entrance usually blocked by two traffic cones. However, on random evenings after 8:00 p.m., a nearby light will be lit, and one of the cones will be pushed aside, allowing entry. Should the player enter the center, they will find either Mr. Resetti or Don, who will be surprised that they were able to get into the subterranean structure. The brother present will then ask the player to withdraw from the facility, eventually offering to give the player a Silver Shovel.

On subsequent visits, the player may come across Mr. Resetti and Don sitting in the center's two orange chairs. After the player speaks to one of the brothers, they engage in conversation - during which an alarm goes off. In response, the chair that Mr. Resetti is settled in pulls back, and the mole exits the building, presumably to travel to the residence of the resetter.

The Resetti Surveillance Center - now referred to as the Reset Surveillance Center - returns in New Leaf as a public works project, with its construction allowing Mr. Resetti, as well as Don, to scold the player each time they reset their game. (Previously, no prerequisites had to be fulfilled for the vexed mole to make appearances, but due to reports stating that his lectures have been the cause of distress among younger players, the developers decided to make him an optional feature.) To unlock the Reset Surveillance Center as a public works project, the player must reset their game once, which causes them to recieve their first - and possibly only, depending on whether the surveillance center is installed or not - lecture from Mr. Resetti. After this, Isabelle adds the Reset Surveillance Center to the list of available public works projects. The erection cost is 368,000 Bells, which can be paid to Lloid at the construction site.

Following the center's completion, Mr. Resetti resume his staple role of reprimanding those who reset without saving. The Reset Surveillance Center, similar to its past appearance, is once again enterable. Rarely, during the evening of a sunny day that follows a day where it rained or snowed, the manhole covering the center's entrance will be removed, allowing access inside.
