Ball

In, Animal Forest e+, ''Animal Forest + for the GameCube and , for the Nintendo 64, there will be a few sports ball scattered around the town. They can be kicked around, but can't be picked up and are difficult to control. Sometimes, the ball may fall into the river or ocean and vanish when it gets out of sight. To make it pop back up, simply enter and exit a house, or save and restart the game. When brought to a villager, they will kick it around and chase it. There are three types of sports balls: the soccer ball (which is white with black spots), the basketball (which is orange with black details) and the volley ball (which is blue with a white stripe).''

Sometimes, a villager will ask the player to bring him or her a ball to play or train with. If the player brings one to him or her, the villager will reward them. Snowballs appear in every Animal Crossing game to date, they will only appear during the winter, and can be used to create a Snowman. When a player finds a snowball, they must approach it and roll it around in the snow to make the snowball grow. In Animal Crossing you must control a snowball much like a ball, kicking it around. However, in Animal Crossing: Wild World, the player is able to hold the snowball and roll it around, which gives you more control over where the snowball goes. If the snowball ends up in the river or sea, it will melt in the water. If a snowball is hit with an axe or a shovel, it will break. It will also break if it lands in a hole or falls down a hill. Once two snowballs are large enough, you will be able to push them into each other and create a Snowman. If the Snowman likes the proportions of the snowball body you created for him, he will reward you with a piece of furniture from the Snowman Series. However, if you make the wrong proportions, the Snowman will act depressed and you will not recieve any reward.

The sports balls are very difficult to control. If attempted to be rolled up a hill, it will simply roll down until the player blocks it from rolling. If it lands in a body of water, the player will have to let the town reset.
