robbalvey Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 I've found all the fruits on my island now. Some of them you have to go on tours to get. BTW, the island officially kicks ass! Elissa and I both went to the island together and did a bunch of the mini game tours. They are a lot of fun with more than one person! I'm really *hoping* that one of the downloadable updates will eventually add things like new bugs, new fish, and new island tours, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robbalvey Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 Supposedly, it's a Spot pass thing, so it's one per 3DS. Here’s how it works. During the Best Buy Animal Crossing: New Leaf promotion, you’ll have to go to a participating Best Buy store, stand outside it and start the Nintendo Zone app. Once it has launched and you’re connected to the internet, apparently the free items will be downloaded to your game via SpotPass. http://www.technologytell.com/gaming/112935/best-buy-gets-exclusive-animal-crossing-new-leaf-dlc/ OK, cool. You guys will have to test it at a Best Buy to see if you can do it with more than one character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erik Johnson Posted June 17, 2013 Author Share Posted June 17, 2013 (edited) That is the second time that has happened to me...so sad! I hope they fix that, or that we can be able to save on the island later. Yeah no saving while on island.

Elissa and I both went to the island together and did a bunch of the mini game tours. They are a lot of fun with more than one person! I'm really *hoping* that one of the downloadable updates will eventually add things like new bugs, new fish, and new island tours, etc. Which tours did you find best? I kept on playing the butterfly and then the bug one, but it seemed to only rotate between 4 fruits. I agree, the island is awesome. I paid off my bridge and second house expansion in one day!

Fire2box Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 I used this method to make 80,000 bells in one trip to the island. tumblr.nettosgameroom.com/post/53059980189/animal-crossing-new-leaf-very-easy-and-fast-money I've paid off everything I could so far and still have 80,000+ bells.

robbalvey Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 While I realize these methods aren't really "cheating", but more of "exploits", I'm not sure I would want to totally destroy my island just to make money. IMO, I kind of find people who do this sort of thing a bit pathetic. I've had no problem making money and paying stuff off WITHOUT having to "wait for a certain time, cut down all the trees, and shoo away bugs until a certain type appears." It honestly sounds like it's more trouble than it's worth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It honestly sounds like it's more trouble than it's worth. The island stuff grows back as far as I know. So it's not permanently destroyed/wrecked. In my view its not a glitch or cheat. Its using the games own mechanics to find the single most profitable task. To me it's the same thing with IV's and EV's in the main pokemon games. They determine what stats your pokemon will have which could make or break a battle. It's nearly hidden code but it's a staple game mechanic to promote higher randomization. I get that not everyone would do this and I understand why. Doing so just helps unlock everything that much faster, going fast isn't what animal crossing is about its the journey.

Trust me, I worked right along side game designers and programmers for 20+ years so I understand what you're talking about. (Although I will say that most designers will tell you that cutting down all the trees to remove spawners and waiting for a specific object to appear is somewhat cheating the system.) Anyway, all I was trying to say is that I went to the island, spent about 25 minutes fishing, and not doing anything out of the ordinary I collected nearly 90,000 bells only throwing back Sea Bass. And that was even being down 6 fish I could sell because I needed to give them to Blathers. A good game designer will have created plenty of opportunity for you to advance in the game without needing an exploit. But I "get" the people will do it, so whatever...

Well I found out you physically have to replant the things in the middle of the island. So you have to wait for the island shop to sell trees, flowers and bushes for medals. So they don't respawn naturally. The price you pay for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jray21 Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 I cleared out a bit of the island, but that was so I could have more tropical plants to harvest. Kind of like another area to farm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
