The very next day after deciding to move out, Marcel was all packed up and ready to go today. In previous Animal Crossing games, villagers still stuck around for about a week (or up to ten days in New Leaf) after deciding to move, so I’m not sure why Nintendo made such a dramatic change in New Horizons. Regardless, I made sure to say goodbye to the moving mime Marcel.
Nook’s Cranny had a paper tiger for sale, so I bought it and placed it in front of Claudia’s house. I think I may do something similar for many of my villagers, at least once my catalog of items has grown enough to the point where I have more animal-themed furniture items.
Able Sisters had a jester’s cap for sale, so I decided to use my tailor’s ticket for it. Now I can be Jeff the jester…or Jeffster, for short.
Saharah was in town, and I bought some wallpaper from her for 3,000 bells. She gave me the “kisses wall,” which is just a bunch of lips. I promptly gave the wallpaper a kiss goodbye and sold it to the Nooklings.
Midge taught me the “fearful” reaction, and it seemed fitting considering that a scary creature was walking by, right behind her!
Cat from Outset came over to adopt Marcel…or at least that was the plan. But it turned out Cat had a full town of villagers, so Marcel wouldn’t move to Outset. As of this entry being posted, Cat is still trying to move someone out, so I’ll update this entry later.
Later on, the new update for the game arrived (a day early). After installing the update, I received a letter from the Bank of Nook stating that the interest rate on savings accounts has been reduced. And I didn’t even have a chance to take advantage of the previous rate since I’m still in debt. 😛 Greedy Tom Nook! But as a consolation, he sent a bell-bag rug. Exciting.
There was also a new letter from Nintendo, thanking me for downloading the update. A world map was attached to this letter. Here is a look at both items.
More importantly, Blathers announced that he will now accept works of art for display in the museum. Yay for art! 😛
I also noticed that the infamous “kindess” typo has been fixed.
Louie asked if I was interested in a treasure hunt, and I said yes. He gave me six minutes to find the buried item, but I found it in just 35 seconds. The gift was some cyber shades, which I put on…for now, at least.
By the way, I have posted my obstacle course video that I recorded yesterday. Enjoy!
Have a great day, and I’ll see you all next time! 🙂
Update: It took all evening, all night, and into the wee hours of the morning 😂, but Cat finally made room for Marcel. So Marcel is on his way to the island of Outset. Good luck in your new town, Marcel!
BTW my nooks cranny is closed because it’s upgrading you need to have it for 30 days spend 200k bells and have mabel visit once then it can upgrade
I’m happy Marcel found a new home! I think he’s a pretty good lad. 😊
Out of the 8 new villagers introduced for this game, which ones do you like best? My favorites are Sherb, Raymond, and Audie.
Sherb is my favorite, and I also like Reneigh.
i feel that raymond is overrated and i wonder why everyone likes him since you like him can you by chance tell me or is it because every one else like him?
I just like his style and how he looks being a cat with glasses and a suit on. I also have him in my town. He just showed up at my campsite one day and I got him to move in. And its always fun to have popular villagers in your town.
Mine’s Judy.
Rizzo’s face in the background of that photo is terrifying.
Hey Jeff so once you install the he update does the Museum upgrade automatically? Or does it take a day to upgrade?
Mine was not upgraded yet, so it may not happen until you donate a work of art.
Yeah, it’s definitely once you donate your first piece of art.
I was able to upgrade without any art donated, but maybe it has to do with how many days the museum’s been open.
This is correct
