The villagers seemed to have so much more personality in the GC game. I love how cranky the crankies and how actually snobby the snobby ones were. It makes them more endearing for me lol
dayum son it’s weird that you guys say they were so mean. I don’t remember them as being mean because I actually gave them chances and continued to talk to them and let them grow and develop as friends. They become nicer. It’s a shame you guys didn’t get to see how cool that was. 🤷🏻♂️
I have already looked up the calendar for just this occasion. In 2031, your old town will become essentially unplayable... But if starting a new town, you can dial the date back 28 years to 2003 and all of the dates will line up with the correct day of the week and leap years will be correct too. The only real-life holiday that wouldn't match up (as far as I know) is Easter, but since there's nothing in the original Animal Crossing for Easter, it's no big deal.
@@RH-xp7ju right, but it's Animal Crossing. The clock no longer going forward means that the game is, for all intents and purposes, unplayable. Nothing will function as intended, seasons won't change, holidays and events will no longer occur, etc.
I’ve been watching your videos since 2006, it’s mind blowing that you’re still so active with your animal crossing content! Your videos make me super nostalgic and stay connected to my childhood again. Thanks for keeping it up. I lost my memory card that came with animal crossing that I had been playing since 2002, I’m pretty sad about it but I’ll live vicariously through these videos
I was really hoping to see "This is one of my original villagers" but holding them hostage for 17 years would be insane. Also, WOW!! A whale shadow! I forgot how amazing they looked!
Unfortunately, I don't remember who my starting villagers were. I had no idea I'd still be playing the game many years later, much less have videos and a blog about it, so I didn't keep track of things like that back then. It's possible that one or more of them may have been original villagers (perhaps Candi?), but there's no way of knowing for sure.
2002 lol simpler times for sure. i remember staying up late playing this game and wandering around catching fish and bugs when everyone was asleep. the music is so nostalgic. congrats on 17 years
Jeff you're going to make me cry from watching this all. I haven't played my Animal crossing save file in over 6 years now and I'm going to get a nostalgia trip from this video
Can’t believe it, 17 years is just a little bit over how long I’ve been alive. Yet throughout all these years you’ve keep on playing on that save. Such dedication, keep it up.
"Welcome to Island Island (... I had no idea they would add Island to the name)" Same thing with my island, but in Tomodachi Life. I ended up liking the name😂
This makes me so happy to see! To play a game for 17 years and never get bored of it. The fact that you've been documenting it all this whole time. Its so special. You're just doing what you love and i love that!
Eek, I posted my comment pretty late. I remember watching your AC videos back in 2006 or 2007 before I register on RUclips in 2012. I've been quite of a old fan of you and holy cow, 17 years? It's almost there to two decades.. You mark down the great history of being the biggest fan of Animal Crossing, Jeff.
I loved the original Animal Crossing so much as a kid. I didn't play any AC games since then until New Horizons came out and I've had so many moments of nostalgia for things I barely even remember. I've binged a ton of your videos in the past couple days and it's been like opening up a dusty old jewellery box full of shiny things. It warms my heart that there are people still enjoying the original even after 17 years..!
17 years!! That amount of dedication is mind blowing. I'm sorry to say that I abandoned my GC copy for City Folk, but I'll forever cherish the good memories this game brought. Thank you for making these videos and for never leaving your animal friends behind. Keep it up man :'^)
As a longtime fan of yours (since around 2013), this actually made me a little teary-eyed. I’ve loved AC since I was very little; it was actually the first video game I ever remember playing! It’s great to see someone with so much dedication to their town and villagers.
Man your love of the series makes me so happy! I really think AC is my all time favourite series, and its amazing that to this day people still play every game in the series
Hey Jeff! Just started watching you about a week ago, I’m getting into animal crossing right now, I’m starting with the original to the new one for switch. I started playing about 3 weeks ago, hope that you remain being a successful youtuber.
Happy 17th Anniversary Jeff! I have also been playing Animal Crossing on the Gamecube for just as long as you and I do still play it about every few weeks, but your videos have been giving entertainment for the past 12 years, and I actually started making my own videos because of watching your channel and It is good to see someone who also plays Animal Crossing on the Gamecube. And In My Opinion, the Gamecube version is my favorite game in the Animal Crossing Series.
No way! I didn't know Hank was anyone else's favorite villager besides mine! That made me happy that someone else feels the same way ^-^ was 're devastated when he moved!!
Still have my brothers wild world cartridge we use to share back in 2005, but the cartridge doesn't work anymore and won't turn on. Seeing this makes me think about my carefree childhood. Congrats on keeping it so long. It must hold a lot of sentimental value.
I love this, it was so charming! I played AC gamecube obsessively as a young teen but I haven't touched it since probably '06 or '07 (in favour of the later instalments) and this was such a lovely trip down memory lane.
It was great seeing your town. I miss having so many villagers for sure. I remember being scared of Baabara and Wolfgang on my game cube AC, they were both so mean!
Damn and i tought you started when i first saw your vids 12 years ago , its impresive to see how much time I know you and how much time you dedicate to this game , continue like that !
Wow you’re also a Cleveland fan. MY BROTHER. Awesome to see this. What’s funny is you’ve had your village running one year longer than Lebron has been in the league!
this makes my heart sooo happy, weve been playing for around the same time! Im glad ive stuck around to see your vids. theyre heartwarming, never stop!
The post was really cool! The first time I watched I didn't really feel the need to read the post. But this time it really compelled me an it was awesome! Keep up the great work!
That's cool, I hope we get to see more Wild World (Animal to Animal) conversations in your WW videos since I can't seem to find any information about some of them yet I clearly remember some when I used to play the game.
I’m a new subscriber, but I love your animal crossing content. I started playing in 2015 when I suddenly discovered I had wild world for my ds that I’ve had since I was 7 (tragic right. I definitely missed out) that I had never played. well, fast forward 5 years and I’m still playing. my town has come very far since then. but anyways congrats on 17 years to your town. I wish I could have owned the original AC but sadly I was only two years old haha. I guess I’ll live vicariously through the videos.
This town can legally drive in most countries and is older than me-
Congrats Jeff!
same.
same.
same.
Same
God this makes me feel old.
Wow 17 years
If that isn’t dedication I don’t know what is
nearly 20 years
it's me. i'm dedication, it's written on this very real birth certificate
The villagers seemed to have so much more personality in the GC game. I love how cranky the crankies and how actually snobby the snobby ones were. It makes them more endearing for me lol
They straight up call you an idiot. I think it built character for me as a kid 😂 now villagers are just ~wholesome~ and I kind of resent it.
It makes me like the nice ones better :P
Which is why i would always set them up with pitfalls
dayum son it’s weird that you guys say they were so mean. I don’t remember them as being mean because I actually gave them chances and continued to talk to them and let them grow and develop as friends. They become nicer. It’s a shame you guys didn’t get to see how cool that was. 🤷🏻♂️
Just started this game shortly after getting ending on new horizon. Played this game, and realized the villagers are a lot meaner
Jeff: has town for 17 years
Kody: fishing tips?!?!
17 years is a long time 😯
The in game year stops updating after 2030. It's be amazing to see someone witness that happen in real time.
You go, Jeff!

@@homestar92 are you for real? Is there any video on it?
@homestar82 your town will still be playable, the clocks just won’t go forward. Don’t trust everything you read lol
@@RH-xp7ju right, but it's Animal Crossing. The clock no longer going forward means that the game is, for all intents and purposes, unplayable. Nothing will function as intended, seasons won't change, holidays and events will no longer occur, etc.
Wait crap. Didn’t realise that. I feel like an idiot now lol. Thanks for telling me 😂😂
I’ve been watching your videos since 2006, it’s mind blowing that you’re still so active with your animal crossing content!

One more year and Jeff's town will be legal
Please don't fuck the town
Your pfp only makes the comment better
😏
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
how tf do you bang a town tho
I cant even think about Animal Crossing without thinking of you. It's like you're actually part of AC history and lore.
It's like he's an animal crossing character that just hopped into our world...
@@theimagisphereitself723 What if he is?
I was really hoping to see "This is one of my original villagers" but holding them hostage for 17 years would be insane.
Also, WOW!! A whale shadow! I forgot how amazing they looked!

I wonder how many times he cycled through all the villagers.
2002 lol simpler times for sure. i remember staying up late playing this game and wandering around catching fish and bugs when everyone was asleep. the music is so nostalgic. congrats on 17 years
Damn you got a free froggy chair in you tour video the AC gods smiled on your hard work
10:08 _Froggy Chair_
I'm very proud of you Jeff! for making Forest one of the longest-living towns (that i know of) in animal crossing history!
Jeff you're going to make me cry from watching this all. I haven't played my Animal crossing save file in over 6 years now and I'm going to get a nostalgia trip from this video
Can’t believe it, 17 years is just a little bit over how long I’ve been alive. Yet throughout all these years you’ve keep on playing on that save. Such dedication, keep it up.
"Welcome to Island Island (... I had no idea they would add Island to the name)"
Same thing with my island, but in Tomodachi Life. I ended up liking the name😂
2002! Woah! AC fan for about a 2 years now, keep doing what you do.
I've been one since 8/9 years, but 12 years is a lot.
I’ve been a fan for around 11 years now
And I’m not English or American so sorry if I have any spelling or grammar mistakes English is my second language
I’ve only been a fan for 6 years
I been a animal crossing fan since 8 days after the new horizons game been relesed
This makes me so happy to see! To play a game for 17 years and never get bored of it. The fact that you've been documenting it all this whole time. Its so special. You're just doing what you love and i love that!
The memory card that had my town from like, '04 got corrupted and my town was lost years ago. Still upset about that.
It’s cool that we both have a strong passion for animal crossing and I always like going back and watching your old videos. Also, Congratulations!
Thank you! I think I'll be an Animal Crossing fan for life.

I've been following you since u started the videos. Nostalgia is taking over meeeee
17 years?! Time flies when your having fun..😓

I haven’t been watching since 2006 but I still get a lot of nostalgia from watching these videos! Please never stop making them!
Woah! it's crazy to think you have been playing in this town for 17 years and you only first saw some things last year (like the whale shadow)

18:49 I remember when Ankha had a Master Sword and you tried to pull it for quite some time and she got mad at you XD
Yes is funny
Seriously, give this a guy a million subscribers already

I wish I could visit in real life. Your island is beautiful and thank you for sharing the wholesome memories with us!
I actually came here after reading the article in Kotaku hahaha!
Lovely town, hope to see more tours in a few years :)
Damn, i feel so nostalgic, i watched your videos long ago. Im almost crying rn
My original town was called "middle." My brother wanted to make it middle earth but there weren't enough spaces lol
😂😂
I shed a tear watching this video. Your channel is so wholesome thank you for everything.
Congrats!! I just wished you a happy anniversary on TBT :P True dedication!
They better send you an early New Horizons copy
I can't believe its been so long! I remember being such a big fan of your videos I even named my GC Town Forest!
This town is a year older than me
Damn.
Been watching your content and reading your blogs lately keep up your animal crossing
*0 dislikes* , perfectly balanced as all things should be...
I mean *17 whole years* , that's so amazing.
This was a very well done and amazing video. People like you make me proud to love this series.
Damn dude I didn't know someone wrote about your dedication to Animal Crossing. That's awesome to hear. i know im late but still.
I love this, it was so charming! I played AC gamecube obsessively as a young teen but I haven't touched it since probably '06 or '07 (in favour of the later instalments) and this was such a lovely trip down memory lane.
This makes me incredibly happy. I have so much love for the GameCube animal crossing.
It was great seeing your town. I miss having so many villagers for sure. I remember being scared of Baabara and Wolfgang on my game cube AC, they were both so mean!
I was TERRIFIED of Jane back then- she’s still my favourite villager!
imma put in a timelapse for myself cause i love kapp'n songs.
16:53

I too would spend 17 years repaying Nook
Loved it! Thanks Jeff!
This town is almost as old as me :) I love how you still play this game, I play in my GC town from time to time, as well.
Animal crossing is my favorite game series of all time so this video just pulls on my heart strings 😔🖤🖤🖤
Congratulations jeff
Wow! Happy birthday Forest! Both Forest and me are the same age now, lol. 🎉
Your dedication to this great series is truly admirable 😁
That's awesome that you've kept up a town for that long. I hope to do that with my New Leaf and Wild World towns
Wow, 17 years?! Amazing. I like your town. Old but Gold

Happy 17 Anniversary animal crossing town forest .
Animal crossing is such a special series. I’ve been playing since 2006!!

I love the way this town is arranged AND your grass shape.
For the town's 17th birthday you got the almighty F R O G G Y C H A I R
That fast if you sit in like I tried it
I admire your commitment dude.
i love the way they speak. i think it sounds a lot more calming than their new voices
I had Kody in my town as a child, I loved him so much. Him and Alfonso were my favorites.
September 29th 2016 was when I made my first animal crossing town! It was a new leaf town, but happy home designer was my first ac game
My favorite Animal Crossing game ever!
Lot of memories!
now this... is amazing. my heart was in this video
The whale shadow really freaked me out! I had never heard of or seen that before!
Ok, now this is hella impressive!
