I think it’s time for an update on my secondary town, Bananas. Tom Nook finally had a shovel for sale today. I was tired of seeing all the X marks all around town, so I can dig them up at last.
After selling some items (including two pieces of Jingle furniture I got on Christmas Eve), Nook had earned enough money to upgrade his shop. It will be Nook ‘n’ Go by Friday.
Also I wanted to point out two more things I like about Bananas. One of them is this style of ramp. I’ve always liked ramps like this, but I’ve never had one. I wouldn’t want to have to push a snowball up it, though! The other thing? Star grass snow! Oh yeah!
Pascal was in town. I didn’t have a scallop for him, but I still talked to him so I could hear his words of wisdom.
And then I went to meet Iggly, a new neighbor. But shock of shocks, he said he just moved in from Forest! This is the same Iggly that moved out of Forest over a month ago!
You may be thinking “but Forest and Bananas aren’t connected, so how is this possible?” Well I’ll tell you! 😛 They’re not directly connected, but they do have something in common: Yann. My friend Yann is on the friend rosters of both towns, so Iggly must have been “in limbo” on Yann’s system, and passed on to Bananas when the friendship was confirmed.
So now Iggly resides on my Wii again, just like where he started out. (For those who don’t know, my Forest town was moved from my Wii to my Wii U during the transfer process and Bananas is a new town made on my Wii).
With my newly purchased shovel, I could now dig up gyroids and fossils. Much to Blathers’ disappointment, I did not donate the fossils to the museum. For now, I’m in it for the money.
And using that money, I was able to pay off my remaining house debt. My house will be upgraded tomorrow.
After that, I ended my day in Bananas and started up my Forest town. I checked Crazy Redd’s for his new items; he had a hospital bed that I needed for my catalog, so I bought it. I then went around watering my flowers. I saw my snowman from two days ago; he doesn’t look so menacing now.
When I was done, I went to town hall to deposit my money in the bank. Because of my Jingle furniture haul on Christmas Eve, I had nearly 300,000 bells to deposit. That pushed my bank balance over 17 million for the first time. By the way, this balance is now higher than my balance in my GameCube town.
