Toilets
Aseating fruit has the benefitsof giving players extra bursts of strength, there may be times where players have eaten too much and want to get rid of the extra food in their bellies. After all, a lot of players don’t want to accidentally shatter a rock into pieces when they just want to mine them for materials.
Luckily, there is a way to get rid of that extra food. By sitting on any toilet furniture, food stock will be “removed” from the player, as they sit. As there are plenty of different kinds of toilets that can be found via falling out of trees or buying from Timmy and Tommy, obtaining a toilet is a pretty easy task to complete.
Talking To Sable
Afterthe unlocking of the Able Sisters tailor shop, players are able to buy various clothes and accessories from the blue hedgehog, Mabel. However, while Mabel is the more outgoing and talkative sister, being the one that players can purchase items through, a secret can be found in the back of the shop.
Sable is the more reserved of the sisters, working on creating the various clothes for purchase on her sewing machine in the very back of the tailor shop. Compared to Mabel, Sable is far more reserved and is a hedgehog of few words. However, by talking to her every day, she will slowly start to open up to the player.
Eventually, the conversations will revealmore about the sisters. It’s highly recommended for players to fulfill this side-quest themselves so they can directly hear the story from Sable herself.
Villagers Wearing Pro-Designs
With many players flaunting their creativityvia the use of pro-designsinAnimal Crossing: New Horizons, what some players may not know is that sometimes their villagers will wear their iconic fashion items. Unlike normal clothing items, they cannot be gifted to villagers and can only happen randomly if certain conditions are met.
First, players must have the Able Sisters tailor shop unlocked and built. Then, players must put their designson the back wall of the shop. Note that players can only display designs that they themselves have created and cannot display designs downloaded via the design servers.
After being displayed, there’s a random chance that villagers who come into the Able Sisters tailor shop will leave with a copy of a displayed design and wear it.
The Museum Gets More Upgrades With More Donations
Withthere being three exhibit categoriesin the museum, there are plenty of things to donate. However, something that some players may not notice until far later is that the museum slowly upgrades itself as there are more donations.
For example,as more fish are addedinto certain tanks in the aquarium exhibit, the tanks will start getting more plants and logs added as decoration. Some tanks even add more coral and rocks, truly making a wonderful new home for the donated fish. Blathers even made sure that the bugs got lovely homes, as can be seen with the specially made exhibit for the centipede, pill bug, and moth.
Totaka’s Song
Kazumi Totaka is a video game composer and sound director for many Nintendo projects. He’s known for his work withMario Paint,Yoshi’s Story,Wii Sports, and countless other titles. In fact, K.K. Slider’s Japanese name is Totakeke, in reference to Totaka. He is additionally also known for his famous voice work of Yoshi, Professor E. Gadd, Captain Olimar, Birdo, and K.K. Slider himself.
Something that is well known among many Nintendo fans is a little melody called “Totaka’s Song.” This song usually shows up as an Easter Egg in various titles that Totaka has worked on,such asLuigi’s Mansion,Pikmin 2, and most of theAnimal Crossinggames. Of course, this means that the song is inAnimal Crossing: New Horizonsas well.
Totaka’s Song isn’t as well hidden as it is in other titles. It can be bought as a K.K. Slider song under Nook Shopping as “K.K. Song.” It can also be given asa request to K.K. Sliderwhen he visits players' islands. Having this song is like having a piece of video game history, so players should give it a listen.
