Today is Groundhog Day, and Tortimer is in front of town hall. In this picture, Yuka’s net is going through his head.

Tortimer gives us a Resetti model to celebrate the holiday.

This is only in the American version of the game, so other regions won’t get this. I’ve received a Resetti model several times before, and I may still have one in storage, so I’m saving this for someone.

It was snowing in town today, so I didn’t have to water my flowers. I still walked around and found two new black roses. One of them was at my blue rose hot spot.

I didn’t play on Wi-Fi last Friday, but I think I will open my gate tomorrow.

When I first turned the game on, I did not yet receive the new DLC for February. (But I got it later on, as you’ll see further down in this entry). The first thing I did was go to the beach to see Gulliver. After talking to him 10 times, he woke up and talked to me. I gave him his missing spaceship part.

In return, he gave me a Tower of Pisa. It was an item I needed, so I’m fairly happy with that. I try not to think about the fact that I’ve shot the UFO down 14 times and still haven’t gotten the one item I really wanted (a Metroid). I’ll post a picture of the Tower of Pisa at the end of this blog entry.

I then checked my mail; I received my monthly letter from the Bank of Nintendo, earning me 51,050 bells of interest for the month.

While watering my flowers, Puddles had an exclamation mark, so I talked to her. She said she’s going to move out; I didn’t try to stop her. As long as it’s not one of my favorites (and she’s not), she can go ahead and move out.

When I went into town hall, there was a blue retro shirt in the recycle bin. I had been wearing the same two shirts for all of January (the New Year 2012 shirt and the pulse shirt), so I thought it was time for something new. Shortly thereafter, I saved and quit my game.

I then tried starting up again to see if I got the new DLC yet, and this time I did: It’s the Pavé clock. The Pavé clock was previously released in Europe/Australia, and indeed someone gave me one before, so I already had it in storage. Here is a picture of the Pavé clock and the Tower of Pisa. (And the blue retro shirt, for that matter).

Just a few words about DLC. Nintendo of Japan’s website lists the DLC that will be released in 2012 for Japan. Even though it may not have been confirmed, I believe this schedule will be followed worldwide. The webpage can be found here: 2012 ACCF DLC Schedule.

The best part is the haunted house/cemetery set that starts in June; I really like the look of that. Those items are new DLC. The other items were already seen in Europe/Australia, but are new to the rest of us. Also, note that from June to October, we will be getting two DLC items a month instead of one. Very nice. That’s all for today, see you next time!

When I talked to Bob today, he asked me to make a delivery to Rowan. I took it to Rowan, and inexplicably, he was thrilled to receive a big dot shirt.

I returned to Bob to tell him I completed the delivery and he thanked me by giving me a basic blue bed. Oh joy.

All indications today pointed to a UFO visit. It turned out to be correct. I shot it down right in front of Nook ‘n’ Go.

That makes for a whopping four UFO visits in January. Gulliver usually does not come anywhere near that often, so I definitely got lucky this month.
