[Handheld] Animal Crossing: New Leaf

Me, my wife, Dei, and her daughter are visiting the island in Dei's town, playing mini-games and sharing produce.

I'm loving this game.

Friend code is 2320-7330-7836. Going to open my town for awhile, though it's not very far along.

Just planted a perfect apple tree.

The Fortune Cookies are neat. Buy one, eat it, and bring back the fortune for a free Nintendo item.
 
The folks over at Video Games Awesome have done a let's play of Animal Crossing: New Leaf. (Warning: NSFW for language).

Just so you know, friend codes do nothing unless each person adds the other. So you'll need to add those of us who've added you in order to visit our towns and/or us to visit you.
 
I'm glad Nintendo has finally released a game that works with friend codes enough that it can add info to your 3DS. I opened my gate yesterday and in came my wife, Halforumites, and a person I knew from Tumblr. My wife and the Tumblr girl click the friends hearts in Animal Crossing: New Leaf. When my wife was out of the game later, she saw that person's friend code data had been added to her 3DS friends list. I'm hoping Pokemon X and Y will take advantage of this, using 3DS friend codes instead of inventing their own and making things complicated.
 
Also glad Nintendo lets us take screenshots for a change. More 3DS games need this.

My town shows proud subservience to the Irken Empire:

Anybody want a steamroller? I've come into possession of one, and don't particularly need it.
 
My wife got New Leaf for her birthday a few days ago. We haven't had a real conversation since. If you want to visit her village, her friend code is 433937157775.
 
My husband was suckered into getting himself a 3DS XL and Animal Crossing today (not the bundle). I'm still laughing. :p
 
One of the things that is irritating me about this game is the lack of video/mic functionality. In the Wii version you could buy a mic so that you could talk to people while you were playing together. This game already has a "best friend" feature built in to separate your friends list, why can't the mic be turned on when playing with the group. Way easier than sending text messages.
 
I was in a Best Buy today and they had a sign saying there are timed special items you can get when you connect your 3DS and New Leaf game to SpotPass. It's getting harder to delay buying with all your talk about visiting each others towns, add in low-effort exclusives and I can't resist.
 
Yay, soon everyone's going to be playing it.

Except Hylian.

It keeps getting delayed for some reason. Amazon finally shipped it out at the end of last week and it was supposed to arrive on Monday but for some reason the tracking information is now saying it will arrive on Wednesday

In good time, it will come. Then, I will take your friend code. I will come to your village, and I will give you things.
 
My other random complaint is that you can't get model homes from towns you visit in your HHA unless you tag them with StreetPass. Grats living in the middle of nowhere. :(
 
Turnips selling for 377 bells in my kids' town, but they have an early bird town so I don't know if Re-tail closes early.
