Alli asked me for a fossil tonight, so I gave her a dinosaur egg I had in my pockets. Yes, I carry dinosaur eggs around with me sometimes. Don’t judge me. 😛

She thanked me by giving me 520 bells. If I knew that was all she was going to give me for it, I would have gone ahead and scrambled it for breakfast instead!

I met up with Chow, and he asked me to play a wilderness survival game with him. It actually sounded a bit scary the way he described it.

But he was just talking about hide-and-seek, and I agreed to play. He gave me 15 minutes to find him, Savannah, and Tank. It didn’t me long to find the first of them; I immediately spotted Savannah sticking her head out from behind the bulletin board!

I later found Chow hiding behind a tree near Able Sisters. And with 11 minutes remaining, I found Tank hiding behind Scott’s house. That was a pretty quick win. Chow gave me a mini harmonoid as my prize.

Bluebear asked me to make a delivery to Rod, so I took it to the mouse’s house. The item was a dirt-clod wall, which doesn’t sound like a very good gift. But Rod actually loved it!

I tracked Bluebear down outside and told her I made the delivery. She thanked me by giving me 520 bells, and she apologized for springing it on me out of the blue.

I took a bus ride out to the city and saw that the passageway to the Reset Surveillance Center was open! So I walked inside and had a chat with Mr. Resetti. He said he hadn’t seen his kid in a whole week, and then he told me to eat the leftover pizza! This must be a rare occasion where Resetti seems like a sympathetic, likeable character. He’s actually being nice! How odd.

That wrapped up my night in Forest. But there is some Animal Crossing news that broke today. (You may have already seen if you follow me on Twitter or Facebook). The Virtual Console version of Animal Crossing: Wild World is being released in America tomorrow (October 13th)! It’s already available in other regions, but I’ve been waiting for it to hit America for a while.

I’ll be launching a new Wild World Blog for it, and since it’s on Wii U, I’ll be able to record videos of it too! So stay tuned for that. It’s exciting starting out a new town. I wonder who my starting villagers will be?

Alli asked me to join in a “fabulous event” tonight, and I agreed to participate. She was talking about a game of hide-and-seek, and she gave me ten minutes to find her and two mice (Broccolo and Rod).

Broccolo was the first critter I found, hiding behind a tree near the center of town.

A bit later, I found Alli hiding behind a tree near the empty house and then I spotted Rod near the museum.

For winning the game, Alli rewarded me with a mega clankoid.

As I made my way around town, I spotted a new house on the west bank of the river. It belongs to Bluebear the…blue bear. I don’t know what I expected. Welcome to Forest, Bluebear.

Rod asked me to make a delivery to Tank, and I agreed to help out. The item turned out to be a cat top. Tank said it’s comfy because it’s elastic and stretchy. It must be really stretchy if it’s going to fit a rhino!

When I returned to Rod and told him I made the delivery, he thanked me and gave me an old brick wall.

Benedict was sick with a cold, so I stopped by Nook ‘n’ Go to buy some medicine for him. I took it back to Ben and spooned in the medicine. He flipped with excitement. Get well soon, rooster.

And before I ended my game for the night, I headed up to Able Sisters. I swapped out my green brick path for my orange brick path that I use each October.

Tank sent me a letter in the mail today, tanking thanking me for the medicine I gave him last week. He sent me a retro TV with the letter. I also got Gloria’s goodbye letter in the mail.

After a stop at Nook ‘n’ Go, I ran into Chow at the top of the ramp. He offered to sell me a screen for 2,282 bells. I declined the offer, and then he gave me the screen for free. Sure, I’ll take anything for free.

Right then, Static walked by and started up a conversation with Chow; I listened in. They were talking about how quickly they lose interest in their hobbies. Static said that he’s now interested in knitting sweaters, and men.

After I circled around town, stopped at the store again, and found today’s money rock, I ran into Static and Chow once again. They had another conversation, and again, I listened in. This time, they were talking about food and how Chow took his niece out for lunch.

I made a trip to the city to check Crazy Redd’s new items for the week; he didn’t have anything I was interested in. After I returned to Forest, I had a chat with Savannah. She told me she’s not a horse in stripes.

After catching a king salmon in the river, I spotted Chow and Static once again! This is the third time I’ve seen them together today, all in different parts of town! Chow asked me to make a delivery…to Static! So I turned around and gave the gift (a noble shirt) to Static, and he put it on. I turned back around to tell Chow I made the delivery, as Static looked on.

Chow rewarded me with a screen! That’s the second screen I got from him tonight! Is something wrong with the random number generators in the game tonight, or what? 😛

Just for fun, I spoke with Static again. Again, he thanked me for the delivery. But then he also told me to thank that ______. No word showed up there, just a blank space, even though it was surely supposed to say Chow. Maybe because I already returned to Chow and got my reward?

What a weird night! See you next time!
