Otis Returns, I S’pose

Iggy just moved in last month, but it didn’t take him long to pop on out of town. I got his goodbye letter in the mail tonight.

What up, Jeff! So, I bolted to begin a long journey of discovery. When will I be back? Never! But turn that frown upside down--I am who I am! You be you, and life'll be fine! Keep it real! -Iggy

A message posted on the bulletin board mentioned the windsocks that appear around town in early May. In fact, they’ll start showing up tomorrow (May 1st)!

Spring is upon us! Flowers and warmer temperatures are a prelude to summer fun! It makes me want to fly a kite. Or a windsock. Be on the lookout for one!

Since today is raffle day, I was unable to sell all the junk in my pockets once again. This is quite annoying. But here were Nook’s raffle prizes for this month:

The Raffle Day prizes for April 2017.

Crazy Redd is coming to town soon, and several of my villagers were talking about him. Candi in particular was pretty mad about it, due to a previous experience with Redd.

Candi: Well, I told that crook he could go hatch an egg if he thought I was gonna pay that much for a sofa!

I found a new house in town, and I was quite happy to see who moved in: It was Otis! He previously lived in Forest in the early years of the town’s existence. While he wasn’t one of my top favorites, I always liked him a lot. I even quoted his catchphrase (I s’pose) in this blog’s very first entry!

Otis: Nice to mee--... Whoops! I said that alraedy, I s'pose! Heh heh! Silly me! You got an extra brain on you?

When I visited Puck, he told me Genji said his clothes were too tight. I agreed, and he called it a “scandle” (typo alert). 😛 And the water bird in front of him makes him look funny; it’s like he has two beaks. 😛

Puck: Oh no! This is a scandle... My clothes ARE too small...

What other typos are in the game? I’m aware of Copper’s “campain” one, but are there others that you’ve noticed? Leave a comment if you recall any others!

Hank asked me for a new catchphrase, so I told him to say “on my wing.” I then spoke with him several times, trying to get him to use it in a funny way. But less than two minutes later, he already said it was going out of style! So he asked me for another catchphrase! This time I told him to say “on my beak.” But I stopped talking to him soon after that, before he tired of this one too. 😛

Hank: I'm thinking all the trees in Forest are filled with happiness at the sunshine, on my beak!

Fortunately, the lost and found at the police station had some stationery. I picked it up to mail away some fossils I found. That cleared up a few spots in my inventory. Shortly after mailing the fossils away, I returned home to wrap up my night in Forest. See you next time!

  1. I dedicated a room in my Mansion on New Horizons for Otis recreated the best I could too look like his house. I couldn’t be more bummed they removed him after the GameCube game.

  2. There are quite a few errors in grammar/spelling in AC, especially in the letters. But that’s keeping it realistic 😛

    By the way, if you had Iggy had hopped out of town, you could’ve made a nice, obscure Mario cartoon pun. ;\

  3. I started up two towns when I finally got a copy of this game last month. One town has both Otis and Iggy! I wish they had returned for the New Leaf update. I like them.

  4. I’m sure I’ve seen a typo in New Leaf, but I can’t remember what is is 😛 Maybe I have a screenshot somewhere?
