ANIMAL CROSSING TIPS & TRICKS
Make Mr. Resetti angry
While playing the game reset the GameCube. Begin the game again and Mr. Resetti will complain. If you repeat it will make him angrier.
Obtain easy items
One of the best ways to get new items that you cannot buy is to do work for the residents, and do it often. Do their little chores and they will (more often than not) reward you with things that are hard to come by in Nook's store.
Get NES games
Talk to the townspeople until they ask you when your birthday is. Most of them will say something similar to "How would you like a train set for your birthday?" Answer "Yes" and you will put in your birthday. On your birthday, one of the townsfolk will be outside your house. He or she will present you with a NES. For example, Virgos will get Donkey Kong.
How to grow a money tree
First, find a glowing piece of earth. Dig it up and you get a money bag. Plant the money bag in the glowing hole and a seedling will sprout, which will grow in to a money tree.
Missed a Holiday?
If you missed a holiday you can go back in time here is how you do it after you press start go to before I go... after you click that do it again and it will lead you to something that says demolish house build a new town when your there click set clock and set the time.

Make more money out of tom nook's first job
Okay, first Tom Nook gives u uniforms. When u get the uniform drop it somewhere. Go back to tom and talk to him. Then he will give u another! keep doing this until u want to stop. Then after u finish all jobs sell the shirts!
Being nasty
This is pretty cool. It's how to blow off Nook when you're working for him whenever you can.
1. When he tells you to go plant flowers, just run to your new house and plant them there. He'll never know! Yay, free flowers:)
2. While you're out "decorating the grounds", you can make a quick switch into your old clothes (who likes that ugly uniform, anyway!?). At first, he'll be mad, but soon he won't care.
3. When he asks you to mail a letter to one of his "most frequent customers", write as many mean things as you can fit in the spaces (nothing happens when you do this, but it's sooo fun to be mean and not get blamed!!!). Also, if you want free paper, just go outside, drop the paper on the ground, and go get a new piece. I think you can get as much as you like.
4. When Nook tells you to write down a "catchy slogan" on the bulletin board, write something really nasty. Although this is also one of those things that you won't get blamed for, it's still fun to do. You can also write all sorts of other things there (I write love letters to myself).
That was the last one, but hopefully these'll give you some ideas of what mean things you can do in this game (like wacking people with your net).
Fossils
Use your shovel to dig up fossils. use paper to send them in to the far away museum. when done go to your gyro and save and quit. go back on. when says ready to go say before i go. then other things. then set clock. set the clock a day ahead. then go back under your name. open your mail box. you will have letters with presents. take the present then put it on your inventory screen. open the present and you will have a fossil. Sell the fossil to tom nok and you will get between 1,000 and 6,000 bells for it.
Lose your friends
Bump into somebody (animal) and that would make them angry the more you bump them the more they get anrgy but they might stop being your friend.
Whisp
Every night between 12 and 4, there is a ghost somewhere in town. You cannot see him until you will step where he is standing. He will ask you to catch five ghouls for him before 4 o'clock. If you do so, you can get a prize, roof painting, or he will remove all the weeds in your town.
Gameplay hints
Hear every song, upgrade to a larger house, and talk to people multiple times.
Following these tips will enable you to reveal more of the story in Animal Crossing, as well as enable you to obtain more free items, and trades.
Coelacanth
When it rains go down to the ocean. Keep walking along the water until you find an unusually large shadow, catch it. You have just caught a Coelacanth worth 15,000 bells. You can catch as many as you want all day (it rains all day).
Bigger house sooner
When you pay back your loan, Tom Nook says to wait till tomorrow to get your house bigger. Save the game and restart. Set the clock ahead a day. Then save again and set the clock back. Your house will be bigger!
Avoiding Bees
When you are shaking trees to get money and a beehive comes out, run into someone's house to avoid the bees.
Get 10,000 bells every day
Set the date to new year. You will get a letter from mom of 10,000 bells. Keep doing this as long as you want but put the date forward a year each time.
Dont get stung!
When someone is round your town go round shaking loads of tree's but theres a catch, you wont get stung!! you sometimes find rare items and always find money!
Time Travelling!
To time travel, just click on the phone in your house before you wake up and click Reset clock then you can change the date, time, month and year!
(Warning: this cheat gives you weeds.)
Keep your Neighbors
If you have a friend that you really like, write him or her a note and keep it in your mail bag. They will never be able to move.
