This area is mostly for shopping, but there are some aspects that require a closer look, and a hidden goodie or two. To reach the city, check the shedule at the bus stop in front of your town's gate. You can take the bus at any time of day, but it won't come while you have your gates opened, or are in someone else's town. Random animals will wander the plaza, commenting on the shops or people on your friends list who often visit the city. Unlike the animals in your town, they will never ask you for anything or remember who you are, and can be pushed around without getting angry. While in the city, you are unable to equip tools, plant seeds, drops items, or display patterns. In case you're inexperienced with conputers, or are just unaware of the fact, you can press CTRL+F to find content on the current page. Next to each section in the Table of Contents, you'll see a two or three letter acronym with a plus sign in front of it, such as +INT; type it into the seach bar to find the corresponding section on the page. (note: this feature is not case sensitive) ======================= City Map +CM ================== _____________________________________________________________ | | | ____ | | _________| GG |_________ | | ____/ \____ | | /HRA AUC\ | | _____/ ______ \ | | / / \ \ | | / MAR | | \ | | /____ P | | KX\ | | / \______/ | | | |ABD | | | __ | | _ _ | |_|CR|____| |_|S|_____|K|_| | | |_____________________________ _________ _________________|_ |_____________________________B _____________________________|R| _____ ______________________________| KEY |__________________________________ | | | B - Bus Stop GG - GracieGrace | | CR - Crazy Redd's AUC - The Auction House | | ABD - Automatic Bell Dispenser KX - Kicks' Place | | MAR - The Marquee S - Shampoodle | | HRA - The Happy Room Academy K - Katrina's Fortunes | | P - Phineas (random days) R - Resetti's Surveillance Center | |_______________________________________________________________________| ================== Crazy Redd's Fine Furniture Emporium +CR ============================================== Location: South-west (map location CR) Purpose: Selling rare furniture and paintings Hours: 10:00 a.m. - 1:00 a.m. Price: 600 - 36,000 Crazy Redd, Tom Nook's eternal rival in the furniture game, has traded his green tent and nomadic lifestyle in for an inconspicuous little shop tucked in the shadiest corner of the city. Though you still have to be a member to have a look at his wares, it's been switched up a little in this iteration. Once you've been turned away from the shop for not being a member, one of the animals in your town will randomly bring Crazy Redd up in conversation, and offer to send you an invitation in the mail. Return to the shop with the letter, and you'll be let in. Redd will charge three thousand Bells for a full membership, which never expires, and will give you an invitation card to send to a friend over wifi, so that they'll be able to get in more easily. Redd will give you another invitation to send out every week. As in past games, Crazy Redd sells three items in his shop at a time; two pieces of furniture, and a painting. Paintings can be donated to the museum in your town, but fairly often, Redd will sell you a forgery. While these can't be donated to the museum, they still look nice, and can be displayed in your house. The furniture is usually rare, and there are certain items that can be found only here. Redd always seems quite pleased to have made a sale, supposedly because he charges much more than an item is worth. This becomes apparent when he's selling an item that you have recently seen at Nook's, or otherwise know the price of. Redd restocks his shop once a week. For me, it's on Wednesdays, but I am currently seeking information on whether that's the day he always restocks, or if it varies from game to game. =Crazy Redd's Exclusive Items= -Furniture- Amazing Machine (1,800) Baby Bed (2,400) Backyard Pool (2,700) Basketball Hoop (2,120) Black Katana (12,000) Black Knight (2,800) Black Rook (2,800) Blue Bed (2,540) Blue Table (2,300) Cabana Bed (2,560) Cabana Chair (2,560) Cabin Chair (3,120) Classic Vanity (2,100) Classic Wardrobe (2,100) Clear Model (3,360) Deer Scare (1,800) Dice Stereo (2,150) Exotic Bed (1,600) Exotic Table (2,320) Frog-Woman Pole (1,400) Green Dresser (2,300) Green Wardrobe (1,700) High-End Stereo (2,750) Hospital Bed (3,600) Judge's Bell (1,400) Kiddie Bed (2,560) Kiddie Clock (1,900) Lawn Mower (2,180) Left Lucky Cat (1,700) Lovely Armoire (2,100) Lovely End Table (1,480) Lucky Black Cat (1,700) Mama Panda (960) Medicine Chest (2,240) Merry-Go-Round (2,780) Modern End Table (1,800) Modern Wardrobe (2,400) Pantheon Post (3,600) Paper Tiger (680) Pothos (2,600) Raccoon Figurine (2,000) Ranch Chair (4,500) Ranch Dresser (1,200) Red Corner (2,720) Regal Bed (6,800) Regal Chair (1,790) Robo-Closet (2,760) Robo-Lamp (990) Rocket (2,900) Saddle Fence (2,280) Safe (758) Saw Horse (1,800) Scoreboard (2,200) Snake Plant (1,200) Space Shuttle (640) Spaceman (1,440) Steam Roller (2,200) Super Toilet (1,980) Tabletop Game (2,480) Timpano Drum (2,100) Triforce (10,000) Turntable (2,580) Well (3,600) White Katana (36,800) White Knight (2,800) White Rook (2,800) Wide-Screen TV (2,200) -Paintings- Amazing Painting Calm Painting Dynamic Painting Famous Painting Fine Painting Flowery Painting Jolly Painting Moody Painting Moving Painting Nice Painting Perfect Painting Proper Painting Quaint Painting Scary Painting Scenic Painting Serene Painting Solemn Painting Strange Painting Warm Painting Wistful Painting Worthy Painting ??? ??? Full list and prices coming soon. If you would like to contribute, see the Contact Info section at the bottom of this page. ============================================== Automatic Bell Dispenser +ABD =================================== Location: West (map location ABD) Purpose: Banking in the city Hours: Always open Price: N/A The Bank of Nintendo Main Branch ABD does exactly what you think it would do; it dispenses Bells. It actually functions exactly like the one in your Town Hall, even allowing you to pay your mortgage. Its ATM-like function is incredibly convenient, as some items that can be bought in the city cost more than your wallet holds, and not everyone likes to carry around large bags of Bells. Once you've deposited ten thousand Bells into your bank account, you'll receive a Shopping Card in the mail. This item allows you to pay for purchases directly from your account, without having to withdraw Bells. =================================== The Marquee +MAR ====================== Location: West (map location MAR) Purpose: Learning new emotions Hours: 10:00 a.m. - 11:00 p.m. Price: 800 Dr. Shrunk, the psychiatric comedian from Wild World, makes his city debut on the stage of the small Marquee theatre. Each week, a new set of four shows will be available to watch, each costing eight hundred Bells. The shows consist of Dr. Shrunk either telling a joke or anecdote, during which he uses an emotion, which you will then be able to learn. You can hold four emotions at a time; if you want to learn another, you'll have to replace one that you currently have. You can watch as many shows as you want each day, but remember, the same four shows will keep showing until Sunday, when a new set becomes available. On random days, an old frilled lizard known as Master Frillard will be performing in The Marquee, teaching you emotions that Dr. Shrunk doesn't know. There is no indication of when he is performing; the only way to see him is to watch every show that you're unfamiliar with. If you have any other information on this character, please submit it through the Contact Info section at the bottom of this page. Dr. Shrunk's Emotions ======================= Emotions are basically reactions displayed on and above your character's face, and are displayed in the upper left while your cursor is on-screen, as well as on the virtual keyboard. -Heartbreak- Your character will look wide-eyed and distraught, a heart floating from their head. Then, they will tilt their head, and the heart will break. -Realization- Your character will look wide-eyed, mouth agape, and an exclamation point will appear above their head. -Delight- Your character will clap excitedly, eyes closed and smiling broadly -Glee- Your character will clasp their hands, close their eyes, and sing, a music note drifting away. -Irritation- Your character will lower their head and scowl. -Anger- Your character will hunch down, face red with anger, and steam will burst from the top of their head. -Sorrow- Your character will tilt their head back, mouth open, and tears will fly from the corners of their eyes. -Fear- Your character will shudder, hugging their body, white zig-zag lines surrounding them. -Laughter- Your character will close their eyes, smily widely, and yellow lines will appear around their head. -Worry- Your character will lower their head and frown, eyes half-lidded. -Sadness- Your character will slump over and swirling black clouds will appear behind their head. -Curiosity- Your charecter will tilt their head to the right, a question mark appearing over their head. -Distress- Your character will hop from foot to foot anxiously, and little sweat drops will appear over their head. -Shock- Your character's eye region will turn blue, their mouth agape and eyes wide. -Mischief- Your character will lower their head, hold their chin and furrow their brow, a shadow fronted by a yellow sparkle sliding across their eyes. -Surprise- Your character will tilt their head back, eyes wide and mouth hanging open, and four white lines will appear by their right brow. -Disbelief- Your character will take a step back, eyes wide and mouth agape, a yellow "cold front" symbol appearing by their head. -Disappointment- Your character will lower their head, eyes half-lidded, and sigh, a puff of steam escaping their lips. -Love- Your character will smile, eyes half-lidded, and a heart will float from their head. -Joy- Your character will sway and step from one foot to the other, eyes closed and smiling, as flowers emanate from behind their head. -Happiness- Your character will smile widely, eyes closed. -Resignation- Your character will close their eyes, frown, and spread their hands in a "what can you do?" fashion. -Inspiration- Your character will clasp their hands together, smiling and wide-eyed, as a lightbulb appears above their head. -Disinterest- Your character will stare blankly, a light breeze blowing a fallen leaf past them. Master Frillard's Emotions ============================ -Thought- Your character will lower their head, hold their chin with their left hand, and three dots will appear in a thought bubble above their head. Full list coming soon. If you would like to contribute, see the Contact Info section at the bottom of this page. ================= The Happy Room Academy +HRA ================================= Location: North-west (map location HRA) Purpose: House decorating tips Hours: 9:00 a.m. - 9:00 p.m. Price: N/A Lyle, the insurance salesman from Wild World, returns as the chairman of the Happy Room Academy. He doesn't seem very happy about the change, but aside from a little aggressive sales talk, it doesn't really impact you. You can talk to Lyle about your most recent evalation, ask him to stop sending HRA letters every week, and, most importantly, look at a model room in the back that shows what the Happy Room Academy is looking for. This room will be the one with the highest HRA score within the current month's theme collected from wifi, and changes every week. ================================= GracieGrace +GG ===================== Location: North (map location GG) Purpose: High-end clothing, accessories and furniture Hours: 9:00 a.m. - 9:00 p.m. Price: Varies from high to VERY HIGH GracieGrace is an expensive boutique owned by the famous fashion designer from past games, Gracie. Though a porcupine named Labelle (possible related to the Mable and Sable, Able sisters, and a play on the term "fashion label"), Gracie herself will make an appearance every so often. Everything for sale in GracieGrace is an exclusive piece designed by Gracie's hand-selected artists, and as such is quite expensive. The store sells clothing, accessories, umbrellas, hats, wallpaper, carpet, and furniture. The stocked items change with the season, following the fashions throughout the year.

The Auction House is run by Lloid, a talking Gyroid similar to the ones from Animal Crossing that served as your mailbox and auctioneer. Here, you are able to put items up for bid, and potentially get more bells for them than you could from Nooks or by selling online. This can work in your favor especially well for items that can't be bought, like fossils. The Auction House runs passive auctions. That is to say, you can't see what other people have bid on an item, and can place only one bid on it yourself. As you're not actively competing with the other bidders, your best bet is to bid as high as you're able. Bidding periods within the Auction House begin on Saturday at 6:00 a.m., and end either on Sunday at midnight, or Monday at 6:00 a.m. (confirmation needed). ======================== Kicks' Place +KX ====================== Location: East (map location KX) Purpose: Changing the appearance of your shoes Hours: 9:00 a.m. - 9:00 p.m. Price: 500 Kicks is a skunk that sits on the stoop of a boarded-up building, shining shoes for five hundred Bells. You have the option to match the shoes to your outfit by color, or by style. When matching by color, Kicks will style your shoes according to the color most prevalent in your outfit. If you have a blue shirt with green sleeves, green glasses, and brown hair, Kicks will make your shoes blue. However, if your hair had been green, of if you had been wearing a green hat, that would tip the scales in favor of green shoes. When matching by style, Kicks will use either use the pattern of your shirt, or the color ratio of your outfit. For example, if you're wearing vertical stripes, Kicks will give your shoes vertical stripes. If your shirt has no discernable pattery, he will try to match the color ratio; that is to say, if your outfit if exactly half black and half white, he will choose a style that is exactly half and half, in colors of his choosing. If either color makes up more than half of your outfit, Kicks will mirror this in your shoes, making them a solid body color with straps or laces of a different color. If you are wearing a full set of clothes, such as Wrestler, Kicks will choose a preset style to match it. If your shoes already match your outfit, Kicks will buff your shoes without changing how they look, and won't charge you for it. ====================== Shampoodle +SHM ===================== Location: South-east (map location S) Purpose: Change your hair or get a Mii Mask Hours: 8:00 a.m. - 9:00 p.m. Price: 3,000 For a mere three thosand Bells, master cosmetologist Harriet will either give you a new hair style, or a new mask based on one of your Miis. The first time you get a Mii Mask, it will be free. You can only use her services once a day, so be certain of your choices. While getting a Mii Mask entails nothing more than picking one from a catalog, Harriet will ask you a battery of questions to determine your hair style, the same way she did in Wild World. This time around, however, you have the luxury of knowing what kind of a hairstyle you'll be getting, even without a guide. The first thing she'll ask is the category of hairstyle you want. The options are Cute, Grown-up, and CRAZY!(boys)/Unique(girls). When this guide is completed, it will contain a full list of hairstyles, complete with descriptions of the styles and how to get them. If anyone would like to contribute, please see the Contact Info section at the bottom of this page. For now, I'll list the ones I know.

Her weekly fortnes can have positive or negative effects, and her mysterious monthly charms take the form of unusual tasks that a wifi friend visiting your town must perform to receive a mystic reward. Unfortunately, again, there is far too little information available to make a guide on it at this time. If anyone has this information, please drop me a line via the Contact Information at the bottom of this page. ====================================== Resetti's Surveillance Center +RSC ======================================== Location: South-east (map location R) Purpose: Interacting with Mr. Resetti Hours: 8:00 p.m. - ??? (random day) Price: N/A Here you will find Mr. Resetti in his oft-mentioned control center, from which he is dispatched every time someone turns their Animal Crossing game off without saving. It is located on the sidewalk to the east of the bus stop, below Katrina's House of Fortune. On a random day at 8:00 p.m., one of the two traffic cones standing on the sidewalk will be moved to the side, and you will be able to enter this area. Once you've walked out of Resetti's Surveillance Center, however, the way back in will be closed behind you. As of right now, the extent to which you can interact with Resetti is unknown, but it's reported that he will give you the Silver Shovel, and that you can sometimes find Don, his brother, in his place. If anyone has further information on this, let me know through the Contact Information at the bottom of this page. ======================================== City Special Visitors +CSV ================================ Phineas ========= Phineas is a sea lion that appears in the city at 9:00 a.m. on random days, several times each week, to hand out free "prizes" to children. You can choose one of four equipable items each day that you see him, the color of which seems to be randomly chosen. While Phineas is in the city, the music will take on a circus or carnival-like quality. The items Phineas gives you are as follows. -Balloon- These are ordinary egg-shaped balloons filled with helium. -Bunny Balloon- These helium-filled balloons are in the shape of a rabbit's head. -Pinwheel- Pinwheels spin and click in the wind as you run, and are available in solid color and two-tone varieties. -Bubble Wand- Bubble Wands allow you to blow soap bubbles, which drift on the wind and pop upon contact with solid objects. Bubble Wands are only available in a light pink color. Master Frillard ================= Every so often, one of Dr. Shrunk's shows at The Marquee will be replaced by one of Master Frillard's. His show will appear with the others on Sunday, and will be playing all week. See the Marquee section for more details. This section is currently incomplete. If you could like to contribute, see the Contact Info section at the bottom of this page. ================================ Secrets +SEC ================== =Totaka's Song= If you stay in the bus for long enough, Kapp'n will start whistling some of his sea shanties from the original Animal Crossing. Eventually, he will whistling Totaka's Song, a short tune by Nintendo composer and K.K. Slider namesake Totaka Kazumi. This song has appeared in every Animal Crossing game, and has been hidden in a number of games Totaka's worked on, including Luigi's Mansion, Yoshi's Story, and The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening. For a version of this song that can be played on your stereo, find K.K. Slider in The Roost on Saturday night and request that he play K.K. Song. If you know of any other secrets involving the city, let me know via the Contact Info section below! ================== Frequently Asked Questions +FAQ ===================================== Q: When does the city open? A: While you can get to the city any time outside of wifi play, it really comes back to life after the night at 9:00 a.m. The lights turn on in The Happy Room Academy and GracieGrace, Kicks and a second animal visitor will show up (before 9:00, there's only one animal in the plaza), and the music will change to the familiar daytime theme. Q: When does the city close? A: You can reach the city at any time of day, but the majority of shops close at 9:00 p.m. There are a few acceptions to this; The Marquee is open until 11:00, Katrina's until 12:00, and Crazy Redd locks up at 1:00. Q: How do I throw stuff into the fountain? A: The fountain you throw items into isn't the one in the city, but the one in your town, which will be built once you've donated enough Bells to the Town Fund. Specifically, donate 200,000 Bells, then once the bridge has been built, donate another 500,000 to get the fountain. Q: Lloid said that he couldn't take any more items when I tried to put one up for auction, but then he said that there was nothing to bid on when the bidding period started! A: This is a glitch caused when you or someone on your Friends List time travels outside of the current week. The matter is currently being looked into. Have a question?
