Day 208
So it’s my first day of playing in 2014 😀 …ignoring when I played after midnight hit. I’m playing later than I’d have liked (a nap went wrong), but I’m happy I still got to play. To my surprise, I was greeted with another letter from Nintendo! Didn’t expect one less than a week later.
“Dear Jennifer,
The new year brings new experiences. Japan likes to
celebrate with a dish called
kagamimochi, so what a perfect chance for you to
try something new!
From the hungry workers”
I’m just going to be over her squeeing. I also received 10K from Mom <3 And then greeted Isabelle :3
And of course, posed in the Faceboard…
Too bad I couldn’t get a picture during the day 3 Regardless, Happy New Year to everyone! <3
SpotPass Cycle?
I had forgotten to check SpotPass houses yesterday so I stopped by today…
Reggie is there again! Looking no different than last time. Even his house is the same.
I wonder if this means the cycle is starting over now. Kinda sad there won’t be anymore new ones then though.
Day 207 – Happy New Year’s Eve!
So, it’s officially New Year’s Eve and thus, the New Year’s Countdown! Yay!
New Year’s Eve–despite being a rather simple event has the most exclusive items as not only does it take into consideration region… it also takes in language:
North America: Sparkling Cider* (Game is in English or French), 12 Grapes (Game is in Spanish)
PAL: Sparkling Cider (French games), Berliner (German games), 12 Grapes (Spanish games), Tweeter* (English games)
Korea: Bell Ornament
Japan: New Year’s Eve Noodles
*This is the item I’m holding! You can drink it and stuff. I actually drink Sparking Apple Cider for New Years Eve (I’m not fond of champagne or wine or well, alcohol in the first place) so it was nice to have it ingame too! (Not that I’d expect them to actually give you Champagne in the game but) Even if it’s one of the non-interior items.
**Same as the one you can get in StreetPass. Not sure why it’s not a unique item like the rest.
Sadly, due to allergies ruining my sleeping and also general busy-ness of the day, I wasn’t able to really go around to different regions (thankfully, I’ve at least catalogged everything). I did manage to stop by Rainy’s Japanese town though for that Countdown:
And also made a stop at Village’s Town even though it ended:
As you can see, the villagers wear fancy hats and fireworks go off! The music is also different.
Anyway, I’ll end this now, but I’m hoping to record the Countdown towards the end so hopefully I’ll update with a video and/or screenshots later :3
Days 205 + 206
Due to allergies being so awful and my sleeping being a mess, I haven’t been playing too much. Hoping by the New Year, it’ll be a lot better… speaking of which, New Year’s Eve is tomorrow!
It’s the last event of the year and the last item varies per region event of the year!
Regardless, I’m mostly looking forward to April… Cherry Blossom Season <3 And at the end of the month, I will finally unlock my topiary 😐
I did get an interesting message from Molly though--I was going back to tell her I buried her Time Capsule and she pinged me and then told me I had the (I forget the word she used--but more or less automatic) ability to make people happy and then said this:
I’m not sure what caused it, but it made me feel all warm and fuzzy, Wish I was able to grab the first part. It just threw me off completely since I never had that happen before.
Besides that, I went to Jessie’s Town for Islanding 😀
Yay~
