Featured Article

Tom Nook's store is the economic centerpiece of every player's town. The store is owned and operated by Tom Nook, the most important non-playable character in the series. In Animal Crossing and Animal Crossing: Wild World, Tom Nook stocks items based in Groups (A, B or C). The player's town is designated a group, and items from that group are more likely to stock in the store. Items from other groups will stock as well, but less frequently. The only way to find out what group the player's town has been designated is for them to keep a tally of the number of items from each group. Item Groups do not exist in Animal Crossing: City Folk, items are available based on individual towns. When the shop is about to upgrade, a message will be posted on the News Bulletin telling that on the next day, the shop will be closed for remodeling. In Animal Crossing: New Leaf, Tom Nook's store is replaced with Timmy and Tommy's store, run by Tom Nook's two nephews. Tom Nook now works at a home improvement store, Nook's Homes. (Read More)

Trivia

Did you know?

• In Animal Crossing: Wild World, Point Specials, half-price sales and Spotlight Items will only start occurring when a second human character is created.
• Animal Crossing: New Horizons will be the first game in the series to support the Chinese language since Doubutsu no Mori.
• In Animal Crossing: City Folk, if the player leaves the game idle long enough on the bus to the city, Kapp'n will begin to whistle Totaka's Song.
• In Animal Crossing, the player can earn large amounts of Bells by fishing in the ocean during early September. This is because no Sea Bass will appear, guaranteeing that the player will catch Red Snappers and/or Barred Knifejaws instead.
