Animal Crossing: New Horizons

[tailrustedtealeaf]

If anyone has multiplayer unlocked, I need to get some iron and I've exhausted my local rocks' and am low on miles. I'm taking a bit of a break so we'll see if it replenishes, or I could just get another tour.
I love the randomly generated islands, how fun! I invited Marcia and Stitches to come to my town. I have peaches and my sisters have cherries, so I can give anyone one of those (give me until tomorrow for the cherries though, they didn't play last night like I did so they don't have multiplayer yet).

Heads up, don't do what I did.

Make sure there's a break in the river or you can access majority of the island, as there's no break in my rivers so 2/3 of my island is inaccessible to me until I build a bridge or figure out how to pole vault across a river.

No worries, pole vault is a day x thing. So long as you

Spoiler

(day 2) Give Nook 5 fish or bugs to invite Blathers. Blathers comes the next day and will give you the recipe for a pole vault!

I am now happily resetting until I get an island with cherries.  Lol!

Oranges and pears so far, hope cherries are soon!

Edit- About 5 resets and I have my cherries!  Also Fushia the deer and Poncho the bear live on "Iris Oasis".

Does anyone have pears? I got one of every fruit except for those! I don't have a ton growing but I can still trade some peaches...
Also I get like this too, but I'm ok with just leaving once the trade is complete, I don't wanna pressure anyone into thinking they have to stay.
I love the mystery islands so much, they're my favorite so far.

I have 1 pear I could give you. ^^ they grow on one of my friend's island. He gave me two to plant and I only planted one. So I can certainly get more later.

All I am missing is an orange. My island has cherries.

My coworker has pears actually if you wanted to plant it, but you can certainly still come over and get more peaches! I should have oranges in a few days if no one else does.

^_^ Ok, I'll grab three if you don't mind

I have just cherries for now.  I planted coconuts and the apples today from "Mom".  Sadly, all three random islands I visited today had the cherries and the same flowers as my main island. :/

Maybe I will have better luck with fruit tomorrow.   This was my day day two in the game. 

[banditpony]

Every island has it's own native fruit + coconuts, so the only way to get other fruit is to travel to another person's island.. and that mom letter.. and I think maybe sometimes it's a present in the sky? (but don't quote me on that one).

Also, you get more money for selling foreign fruit over your native fruit. But people are kind here, and will gladly share.

Hm... I've visited three or four of the islands with Nook Miles and all of them that had trees with fruit (one didn't) all of them were pears, the same as my native fruit. Guess it's just bad luck?

[Ragamuffin]

I have all the fruits (I think!) if anyone needs any! Peaches (my native fruit), cherries, pears, apples, and oranges!

Gotta travel to a friend's island

[tailrustedtealeaf]

I work tonight, but am off from work tomorrow and can open my island during the evening/duration of my online class! I should have peaches regrown by then, or I'll hit a Miles island and grab some more for anyone who wants to come and get some.
I've already planted apples, and today I went to a mile island and it had apples!! Maybe you have to plant one before you can encounter more fruit via the island, or I just got lucky.

I'm so fortunate to have this game right now. Animal Crossing has been a constant in my life since way back in 2004 on the Gamecube. I could gush forever.

Haven't read the whole thread so if this has already been linked I apologize.
I had no idea what to name my island and if anyone else is having that trouble, someone made a site that generates endless names. I used it and I ended up using one of the ones I got, Poppyshire.  Got some cute pony-ish sounding names from it too. 

Don't know if anyone is sharing pictures here... but I took one this morning of my villager and their house.

Ok... I  had a long reply here and somehow my phone ate it.  Ugh!

Long story shortened, I  happened to visit an island with pink and purple wildflowers.   Took several to my island, planted them.  They attract peacock butterflies!

Been catching butterflies for hours, paid off my first house,  and have enough in savings for half the amount for my second house (upgrade).

At 2,500 bells each, peacock butterflies are my cash crop!

I don't know how long they will be around,  but I am very happy!  If visitors are able to catch them, and anyone would be interested,  I am happy to have people over for butterfly catching!
I do ask that you leave the flowers alone please.

If anyone is interested let me know.  I  will need to google how to have visitors.   I have no idea how.

Ahhhhhh!  Lol! 

(Funny thing is, I actually was looking for cherries to pick when I  stumbled upon that flower isle.)

PS - A few pics!

I have to weigh in getting a new console and restarting now... (and the $$ cost of that) --- but I am going to have trouble even finding a new console it appears.

Or risking losing everything a month or two down the line because my switch is acting funny. Nintendo can't tell if it would be considered console failure or not. :'(


I'm going to go ahead and risk it since there doesn't appear to be any new switches in stock. u_u; At best, at least my switch works in hand held mode.

Anyone have good turnip prices yet ? Mine are 53 today, meeeh.
