I can't believe I'm admitting this but Resetti actually did make me cry as a child. I was playing wild world on my DS and I couldn't repeat Resetti's words back to him correctly because it has to be exactly right including punctuation. I had to get my brother to do it for me.
Haha yea, the games are very strict on having you repeat back the phrases exactly… It makes sense he was toned down and made optional later on, but I still kind of miss his angry rants… Maybe he’ll play a bigger role in the next game. 🤔
I was literally the exact same, I dreaded seeing the red light on my ds if I wasn't near my charger playing animal crossing cos he made me cry multiple times (something tells me the developers didn't get that a 6 year old probably doesn't understand punctuation yet lol)
I like how in the e+ version, they added a feature where when you try to mash through Resetti's dialogue it actually counts how many times you press the button and he says "you pressed the button X times!" I saw on a Japanese site that someone was trying to have a competition with their siblings to see the highest number they could get, and got over 400. Poor Resetti.
I actually think it's really cute how they made Resetti opt-in in New Leaf. He'll show up on your first reset, then never again "because we got defunded". But if you go out of your way to build the Reset Surveillance Center, he'll be surprisingly happy about it! You can even, under very specific circumstances, sneak your way down the manhole and check out the place for yourself. He'll briefly scold you for doing so, before being interrupted by _someone else_ resetting and having to SCRAM! to deal with it.
I made sure he had his job back, and was very forgiving if you say "My batteries died" aka my go-to whenever I reset, lol He has a new job now, which is the island rescue service. He "resets" your position if you get stuck somewhere.
He will show up whether you reset or not, and if you had, he will basically say something like "Nah, you resetted your game but like, I'm just so happy to have my job back that I don't even care. This one's a freebie, no lecture for you!" And if you didn't reset he will point out that he couldn't anyways since you didn't reset.
In City Folk, Resetti does the same "delete save data" prank, but instead of the screen going black briefly, it actually loads the title screen with a completely different village in the background, making you think you've truly lost your save data
We need him in our lives again. My sister closes so many games without saving and then wonders why she lost progress. She was never taught a lesson by Mr. Resetti :(
My dad actually taped a plastic stick over our reset button to prevent us from resetting because we would terrorize each other by threatening to summon Mr. Resetti by hitting the button.
Two things I hate more than anything are being yelled at and getting in trouble for things that aren't my fault, and when you consider that most of the time when I was playing city folk the reason it resetted was because my little brother turned off the Wii you can understand my hatred for such things. My dad thought he was hilarious though and sometimes reset on purpose to see him
It was really hard repeating Resetti's phrase back in the day when I couldn't read. Maybe that's why I didn't know how to save. Or knew what was going on. It's a hard game when you can't read ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I played the DS version of AC as a kid and I remember having forgot to save so many times that Resetti gave me a meter of how “not sorry” to “very sorry” I was. I became so stressed trying to guess how sorry he wanted me to be 😭
I had the same problem, and NEVER got past it. I was never able to play the game again as a kid lol, not even my sister who was 7 years older than me could get past it.
Whoa, guess Resetti doesn't like it when his species is mistaken. Maybe he should yell at Isabelle too. She gives you a statue of him, a mole, to celebrate Groundhog Day... But he is not a groundhog.
we need a Mr. Resetti redemption arch where the first time he shows up he begins angry then stops himself mid sentence and apologises and says hes been going to anger management or something. I just love his character design he's too cute to leave out!
@Pinyaps If you don't actually have the 100 Nook Miles to use the service, he does reveal himself to be Resetti, and he does still rescue you, albeit, he takes you to a Random location, instead of you being able to choose.
As a child, my older sister had a friend over who recalled when Resetti "reset her save file". She cracked her controller and kicked her CRT, hurting her toe badly. The screen returned, and Resetti said "Did you break your controller? Maybe kick your TV?" And that's how I got my copy of Animal Crossing~! :3
Honestly, I'd love for someone to do a professional voice dub of all of Mr. Resetti's dialogue. I want them to REALLY do justice at just how utterly *_enraged_* he is, to the point of voice-cracking. He's just one of them characters you can't help but adore due to how unique he is
I once had my DS fall out of my hands as I was walking down the stairs. The DS itself was fine but the cartridge was ejected when it hit the ground, so my game froze and I had to reset. Mr. Resetti was NOT happy 😆 I really wish ACNH would let us turn auto-save off, especially when terraforming so that if we end up hating what we built or regret what we destroyed, we can just reset. I'd happily listen to Mr. Resetti rant after that 😂
Oh man, that would help so much. I get that Animal Crossing is intended to be played in a sort of "hardcore mode" where saving is concerned and it's an integral part of the experience but...
@@ddnava96He would appear once before building the Reset Center. Just the once, the first time you reset. Before you load your town, he pops in (iirc the floor even opens up so he can emerge from the dirt underneath?), introduces himself, asks what made you reset, then explains his situation to you. Isabelle will add the Reset Surveillance Center to your list of Public Works Projects.
I liked how in new leaf you had the option to either not have him and just have Isobel sigh and go "last time you didn't save remember next time :)" or you could put in a public works project and have resetti rant at you. But I liked how it was your choice
Wow it's exactly what I thought it was! I feel like you should've covered how other games did it as well. Feels kinda short only doing one. Besides the dialogue reading of course!
@@Zinkolo It's true this video did end up a tad short; I was really hoping the game's reset counter would overflow or crash so I could do some more in-depth explanations, but unfortunately they capped it. The other games also work pretty identically to the GameCube version so there wasn't a lot else to cover. The GameCube version also has the best Resetti dialogue / scenarios so I focused on that version, along with the player input secret -- though I regret not mentioning that you could actually visit Resetti's surveillance center in the Japanese e+ version. While this video was somewhat short, next week's video will be longer and feature several very interesting technical explanations, so I hope you look forward to it! Thank you for the comments!
The long loading time when booting up already confirmed that for me, since AC doesn't need the disc inside to run. It literally keeps the whole game in RAM
I'm really drawn to this technical side of Animal Crossing. Particularly the GameCube version, as I grew up with it and yet continue to learn more new things about it through this niche but tight community. I hope to see more from you!
People wonder why so many people still prefer the og animal crossing even though it has less features, but stuff like this is exactly why. Mr Resetti along with Phillips and many of the other townsfolk are just so grumpy and rude I LOVE it. It makes talking to people so much more interesting and enjoyable. Many of the new games just have a bunch of boring goody two shoes as neighbors.
For some reason I thought all the mean animals like that were really funny as a kid, even though in real life I was very sensitive and people like that would have scared me 😂
The shame of it is, they absolutely could have kept Resetti in a similar role in New Horizons, even with auto-save. Because Zarquon knows SOMEone should have been there to slap your wrist for messing with the system clock.
His job was to stop people from resetting, not from time traveling. And since nowadays time traveling is an officially recognized way to play by the game itself, there's no way they'd punish it.
@@KopperNeoman The difference is though that they always softly (or loudly in Resetti's case) discouraged resetting, even when the mole lost his job. But time travel was never once discouraged beyond what the game would normally do if you took too long to revisit.
I was scared of Resetti as a kid... But also grateful, because his presence made sure that I never lost anything because I *ALWAYS* saved to avoid his wrath.
The first time I ever encountered Resetti was in New Leaf. It was 1 am and I had just returned from Tortimer island. I was tired so I turned my 3ds off and went to sleep. Lo and behold, Resetti greats me the next morn instead of Isabelle. The worst part is I lost 4 golden stag beetles and 3 whale sharks.
resetti always scared me because he would not immediately appear but you KNEW he was coming, there was so much dread and there was a brief moment of silence before he popped up. this was enough to make my brain relax and then get startled by him. the first time he appeared it freaked me out.
When i was a kid, my dsi eventually developed a glitch that meant that occasionally it would turn off whenever you tilted the screen using the hinge. Id say anout 50/50 odds. I played wild world. Resetti was so mad at me for NO GOOD REASON. I still flinch whenever i have to adjust the screen on my PERFECTLY FINE 3DS. Im still feeling those effects to this day. Fuck mr resetti, he terrorized my child self.
I had a laptop like that, it was my dads old computer from like 2010 or smth. Whenever i tried to adjust the screen it would completely turn off. I have no idea how i put up with that laptop for 5 years.
I remember when I was about 5, my older brother's character's face was replaced with a gyroid face. He showed it to me and told me that Mr. Resetti did it. It really freaked me out and made me even more terrified/in awe of this crazy mole 😆 Because of that I could've sworn that one of the reset events was him taking your face, but I just googled it and apparently it just happens if you reset while visiting another town The more you know
I encountered Resetti a LOT in my Wild World days... My cart was corroded and would frequently crash due to poor contacts between the cart and system... Playing WW was always a gamble because it wasn't a matter of if, it was a matter of WHEN it would crash
I was originally afraid of him because I thought he would try something terrible if I angered him enough. These days, I'm rather fond of his character. Rants and all! Also, I like the other side of him where he's a more relaxed individual. Don, of course, is the cherry on top!
EDIT: there's a popular rumor about Resetti in only the EU version of City Folk resetting too many times (some like 100 times I think) will actually piss off Resetti to the point where he *actually wipes your save*
I do wish that mr-resetti if the game crashes he says that in this case he's going easy on you since it was a case of where it was against anything you could've done and simply says that this is kinda why you need to save in the first place to ensure that you don't lose much progress
The first time I met Mr. Resetti was after a power glitch that shut my gamecube off. I was annoyed that he accused me of trying to game the system by resetting the game and to accept the consequences of my actions. After that, I purposefully would reset just to annoy him back. He became one of my most favorite characters after that.
Hey man, just watched loads of your videos, they're all really cute! Very digestible. I love my hour long decompiling videos, but it's nice also to be able to throw something on when I don't have time to watch something else. I'm commenting to thank you for the captions on your videos! I have auditory processing issues, and that makes these sorts of videos hard to understand if I'm not 100% focused on them and only them at all times. Captions make my life so much easier in just comprehending what's being told me, so thank you for taking the time out of your day to write and/or include them!
Thank you for the kind words! I also prefer captions on a lot of content I watch, so I always try to include them when possible. All of these videos are scripted, so it’s not too much work to just copy over the script and adjust the timings to match what I’m saying. But it does probably take an extra hour or so per 10min video - glad it helps! 😄
@@Hunter-R.It's crazy how many people who do scripted content don't even bother to throw the script into the transcript to let the system at least try. I do really appreciate that you put the work in, even if it doesn't feel like much.
I first encountered Resetti in New Leaf and felt bad for him when he first appeared and how he apparently lost his job. I looked him up more about him and thought his whole thing was pretty charming. I rarely incurred his wrath afterwards, though I might've done it on accident... He's be upset with the amount of resetting I've done in New Horizons. Fun fact: He's an assist trophy in Super Smash Bros. Brawl and he's got some funny interactions. He'll counterattack if he keeps getting attacked and has special dialogue if he goes off-screen.
My hypothesis (prior to watching video): - When you load your save file (village), the game saves a small flag that marks the file as unsaved (in application programming, commonly called a "dirty flag", except this one gets stored with the actual save file instead of just being held in active memory) - This flag is cleared when you save and quit. - When loading your save file, if the flag was _already_ set, this implies the prior session ended WITHOUT a "save and quit", so Mr.Resetti appears to berate the player. Clever but technically simple stuff. I remember back when Mario Kart DS launched, it was theorized that when you play online, before the match starts the game pre-saves the outcome as a loss (in case you disconnect/power off), only to replace it with the _actual_ outcome upon completion of the match. There were many flaws in the design of MKDS's online but this was not one of them.
I like how you had to acknowledge at the end how much work that took. I was thinking the same thing. "He has to save, load, reset, and load again, in order to increase the count by one. That's tedious."
God I miss Resetti so so much... I remember losing my shit in NL because apparently I had reseted so many times (my old 3ds battery was failing so it would shut off randomly on me a few times) to the point where his brother started to show up instead of him and straight out told me Resetti had gotten so pissed off that his pressure got way too high and was told to just take it easy hence his brother replaced him LOL. Be it Don is waaay more chill about it, but something about practically endangering Mr. Resetti's healthy over resets really got to me.
When I was a kid, my friend had a meltdown when Resetti does the fake-out game reset, so I can understand why Nintendo decided to phase him out. We had been waiting to play Smash Bros one afternoon and they wouldn't get off so my brother got upset and turned the console off. They started crying about Resetti warning them not to do it again and loaded the game back up to find the cutscene where he says he's going to reset your save file. Screaming ensues and hands are thrown, parents arrive wondering what the fight is about just to have smug-ass Resetti be on the screen saying "Gotcha." I feel bad about it because it ultimately did get them grounded for hogging the gamecube and starting a fight over a video game.
I started playing Animal Crossing recently, mostly GameCube and New Horizons, and while on GameCube for the first time I had a lot of fun making Resetti appear on purpose! I just started wondering how it works a few hours ago and suddenly I find this video without even looking anything up about it! What a crazy coincidence. 5:00 I had no idea, that’s hilarious! I need to try that in one of my videos!
@@Hunter-R. Not yet! I really love Super Mario, mostly the older games. But since New Horizons is so good I might give Super Mario Wonder a try in the future!
@@adamk-paxlogan7330Sucks Basically, people want to know the conditions under which Resetti operates, but nobody ever really stops to consider his mental health or general wellbeing.
Resetti was discouraging me from playing not only I have to do what I did before my game crashed again but I have to go through resetti's monologue , assuming my game won't crash again
I'm surprised this wasn't covered, but in the GameCube version Resetti once turned my face into Coco's face. My sister and I kept trolling eachother for giggles and would turn the game off on eachother. We were obsessed with Coco, so we weren't mad we were just like WOAH how did we do that!?! I don't know if it was from resetting or if we glitched something. We left the game running for three days because we assumed if we saved and turned the game on it would go back to normal. We were right.
This occurs when you reset while visiting another player’s town through a second memory card. It’s pretty amusing, but wasn’t covered here since Resetti isn’t the one who does this to you. This actually occurs due to the game itself intentionally making you appear that way, but yea it will go back to normal after saving and quitting again.
such a cool video! i remember literally crying my eyes out when Resetti did the fake "delete your save data" trick. old crt tvs had that shut off effect and i thought i had lost everything. was hard to consistently save in a household where video games were considered "brain rotting" and "evil" lol
I also was terrified of that guy. Was extremely young and could not speak english (not native) and was always confused what he was on about, but he still was kind of unsettling
"and could not speak english (not native) and was always confused what he was on about" He DOES tend to use a lot of metaphorical language, doesn't he?
@@Most-sane-deltarune-fan probably, don't know anymore, also doesn't quite matter, I was six and *literally* didn't know a single word in english, I just saw an angry guy screaming at me and that was enough lmao
You know, Mr Resetti would make a great anti-piracy mechanism. The whole "Console calls police" is boring, overused, and childish. Have the game go on as normal, but have him pop up with long text calling you a dirty pirate and have special events be canceled. The other villagers would also call you out on it.
@yoshiwoollyworldYeah, and the first APS to have that "feature" - that being the Mario Party DS one - was meant to be an over-the-top satire of Nintendo's very-well-documented "knight templar" behavior. The various imitators kind of missed the point.
The first day I incurred Resetti's wrath was actually the day I first played AC on Gamecube. I got it on Christmas morning, but sometime in the afternoon there was a freak thundersnow storm, and the lighting was so close, I panicked and shut the game off without saving so I could unplug the Gamecube. As a kid, I was taught that you should turn off and unplug computers during a thunderstorm, and that this applies to game consoles too. Of course nowadays I'm very lax about it, but I do avoid charging devices during severe weather.
I had a real problem with resetti on the DS version of the game. You had a slider, but neither me or my sister could get past it, so my game was essentially bricked. I have to say, resetti has to be the WORST idea any game developer has ever thought of.
Resetti does appear in new horizons kinda, If you call the rescue service with your nookphone its actually resetti whos running the service. He even mentions autosaving.
True, but that’s such a minimal appearance that I don’t even really consider it one. He isn’t even named in that call! They did eventually add him in an update and you can use his amiibo to invite him and Don to the Roost for coffee… but still lame he didn’t really appear officially outside of that.
@@Hunter-R. One time I had them show up randomly in The Roost and I relished the moment, because New Horizons is the only version I've ever really played. ...I never saw him again.
@@Hunter-R. "and you can use his amiibo to invite him and Don to the Roost for coffee… " and do vacation homes for them and bring 'em into Photopia at Harv's island to take cool pictures of them!
I always thought mr. Resetti was funny. The first time I encountered him, I reset repeatedly on purpose to read all his dialogue. I was still in grade school, so I got stuck on his 6th reset because I couldn’t input his dialogue back properly, even after like ten or so attempts. So I… reset the console again, in hopes that I wouldn’t have to enter something the next time, and be able to play the game again lmao. I stopped resetting after that because I really thought he’d delete my save file, so it’s cool seeing the rest of his dialogue! I wish that in new horizons, you could turn off the auto save, and only with the game in this state could he come and chastise you. It would be harder for kids and casual players to mess with the settings, and would of been a fun Easter egg for the less casual players.
i remember i booted up my city folk game once that i played with my sister and i completely lost my village, we had like a save file corruption and we couldnt start a new one.. sad day for the both of us
I remember Resetti from the OG game. I was so outraged that a game I owned had the nerve to lecture me about how to play it. I stopped playing after that
5:13 As a kid, I didn't know how to read or write too well and encountered Resetti when he made you rewrite a phrase. I could not for the life of me repeat exactly what he told me to, for whatever reason, and I cried about it. My older brother ended up doing it for me, lol. I didn't know that Resetti changes what he says depending on how many times you've reset. I guess I reset a lot as a kid
I used to hate resetti, I had wild world on an r4 card and it would crash a lot, so I constantly had to hear him yell at me for something I didn't even do
@@Hunter-R.New Horizons will always be "that game I played during covid" so it'll always have that nostalgia factor. But yeah, I wish I enjoyed it more lol
I remember being super confused by Mr.Resetti as a kid, cause I didn't play animal crossing much and didn't know how to save. Also I tried to mash through his dialogue every time, which just made him angrier.
I rented the Gamecube game, so I read up on "cheats" and tips and after playing for a couple days I time traveled and used an Action Replay. (Since I wouldn't get the full experience unless I bought the game anyway. I never did.) I reset the game on purpose just to see who this character is, and then I checked the "no Resetti" box on the Action Replay. That seemed to have had an opposite effect because he'd appear every time even if I saved. I thought it was hilarious at first but then I found him really annoying because of how precise I had to be when saying the phrase he wanted me to say. (After telling him that he sucks, of course.) I couldn't even tell what was wrong half the time.
the first animal crossing game i really got into was new leaf. i did not know how to save, and he just got scarier and scarier to me. eventually i just made my dad open the game and deal with him for me because i could get so anxious and cry lol
yeah, i don't think you're thinking of new leaf, because resetti gets fired in new leaf and you have to pay to bring him back, and then when you do then he asks you _why_ you didn't save and if you tell him the power ran out then he lets you off lightly
I'm going to guess, without watching the video first, that there is a boolean which is serialized to a file. If you start up the game and that boolean is read, and it's false, it means the game wasn't previously saved. This boolean likely is intelligently set to false after x number of minutes by default as well. Edit: Yep. I was right.
Before you get to it, I'm gonna hazard a guess: I think it may be that the game writes a flag to your save file as soon as it gets loaded for the first time after saving, and clears it whenever you save and quit.
Also, I think it would have been nice if the reset-tracking had expiration periods. Like, if it would decrement every X amount of time that passes since the last time you've reset.
Resetti scared the heck out of me on Wild World as a kid - he threatened to delete my save file so I panicked and deleted the villager that hadn't saved to try and protect my file.
@@Most-sane-deltarune-fan the human villager, my other ones hadn't angered Resetti so I thought if I deleted the one he was angry with then he wouldn't delete my entire town
There was no official Chinese translation of the DS animal crossing. I played a fan translation version of the game. There is an known issue where the translation process breaks all textual understanding of the the input box, such as letters and also resetti input box. So one would be stuck in an infinite loop getting lectured by resetti if you get the "repeat after me" reset cycles. 😢
I love how in city folk he is more subtle about his anger but is still insanely pissed off and how you need to walk down from your house door before he jumps out making you think you are safe
I loved gcb animal crossing, resetti was someone I came across because of power outages and such, and I loved him amongst the other cast members of the first game. I've played every game since. I played New Leaf the most and the wii one the least, but I absolutely loved each game including NH on switch I will forever and always hold a soft spot for the first one, with all of that uncapped and seemingly experimental attitudes and personalities
I love this mechanic, I just laugh out loud at these cool 4th wall jokes, like resetti introducing himself as a Nintendo employee or turning your screen off
I can't believe I'm admitting this but Resetti actually did make me cry as a child. I was playing wild world on my DS and I couldn't repeat Resetti's words back to him correctly because it has to be exactly right including punctuation. I had to get my brother to do it for me.
Haha yea, the games are very strict on having you repeat back the phrases exactly… It makes sense he was toned down and made optional later on, but I still kind of miss his angry rants… Maybe he’ll play a bigger role in the next game. 🤔
Oh my god you're exactly the reason why he was optional in NL and removed in NH lmao!
No shame obviously
I was literally the exact same, I dreaded seeing the red light on my ds if I wasn't near my charger playing animal crossing cos he made me cry multiple times (something tells me the developers didn't get that a 6 year old probably doesn't understand punctuation yet lol)
I hope your brother was helpful
lmfao
I like how in the e+ version, they added a feature where when you try to mash through Resetti's dialogue it actually counts how many times you press the button and he says "you pressed the button X times!" I saw on a Japanese site that someone was trying to have a competition with their siblings to see the highest number they could get, and got over 400. Poor Resetti.
They have that in Wild World too! Also you can visit his house in the e+ version which is a feature that wasn't seen again until City Folk
That's hilarious, they should have kept that.
This should be a world record category
It's in new leaf too
“CLICK CLACK CLICK CLACK! ALL THAT NOISE! WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO DO!? STOP THAT! YOU’VE MASHED BUTTONS X TIMES!”
I actually think it's really cute how they made Resetti opt-in in New Leaf. He'll show up on your first reset, then never again "because we got defunded". But if you go out of your way to build the Reset Surveillance Center, he'll be surprisingly happy about it! You can even, under very specific circumstances, sneak your way down the manhole and check out the place for yourself. He'll briefly scold you for doing so, before being interrupted by _someone else_ resetting and having to SCRAM! to deal with it.
He's even happy enough to forgive you resetting.
I made sure he had his job back, and was very forgiving if you say "My batteries died" aka my go-to whenever I reset, lol
He has a new job now, which is the island rescue service. He "resets" your position if you get stuck somewhere.
You also got the chance to meet his brother 'Don' which was cute.
I really like this. I don't own any of the older games, but kinda wish I had the option in Horizons.
He will show up whether you reset or not, and if you had, he will basically say something like "Nah, you resetted your game but like, I'm just so happy to have my job back that I don't even care. This one's a freebie, no lecture for you!"
And if you didn't reset he will point out that he couldn't anyways since you didn't reset.
In City Folk, Resetti does the same "delete save data" prank, but instead of the screen going black briefly, it actually loads the title screen with a completely different village in the background, making you think you've truly lost your save data
Have to wonder is someone's hacked the game to visit that fake-out town.

I think he actually does bring that up when you select the rescue app in New Horizons (I could be mistaken though)
@Pinyaps If you don't actually have the 100 Nook Miles to use the service, he does reveal himself to be Resetti, and he does still rescue you, albeit, he takes you to a Random location, instead of you being able to choose.
@@HappyYomar A random location? How random? I've always thought it strange that he can't drop you off in front of the museum or Able Sisters.
@@Most-sane-deltarune-fan a random location from the options you normally get
@@HappyYomar Oh.
As a child, my older sister had a friend over who recalled when Resetti "reset her save file".
She cracked her controller and kicked her CRT, hurting her toe badly. The screen returned, and Resetti said "Did you break your controller? Maybe kick your TV?"
And that's how I got my copy of Animal Crossing~! :3
based resetti
Honestly, I'd love for someone to do a professional voice dub of all of Mr. Resetti's dialogue. I want them to REALLY do justice at just how utterly *_enraged_* he is, to the point of voice-cracking. He's just one of them characters you can't help but adore due to how unique he is
I imagined that Clancy Brown, who voices Mr. Krabs, would be a great voice actor for Resetti
my immediate thought was sungwon cho, and then my second thought was alex hirsch
@@ilexdiapason Or me. ;)
@@ilexdiapasoni can also see Clancy Brown voicing him

I once had my DS fall out of my hands as I was walking down the stairs.
The DS itself was fine but the cartridge was ejected when it hit the ground, so my game froze and I had to reset. Mr. Resetti was NOT happy 😆
I really wish ACNH would let us turn auto-save off, especially when terraforming so that if we end up hating what we built or regret what we destroyed, we can just reset. I'd happily listen to Mr. Resetti rant after that 😂
"you little curmudgeon I had to reset the dirt by hand"
NOOOO, THE CARTRIDGE 😭
(That was me the first time one of my cartridges fell off my console, the cartridge still worked but the game got all glitchy)
Oh man, that would help so much.
I get that Animal Crossing is intended to be played in a sort of "hardcore mode" where saving is concerned and it's an integral part of the experience but...
In New Leaf (3DS) Resetti wouldn't appear at first and you had to reopen his reset center so he can show up when you reset the game
@@ddnava96He would appear once before building the Reset Center. Just the once, the first time you reset. Before you load your town, he pops in (iirc the floor even opens up so he can emerge from the dirt underneath?), introduces himself, asks what made you reset, then explains his situation to you. Isabelle will add the Reset Surveillance Center to your list of Public Works Projects.
I liked how in new leaf you had the option to either not have him and just have Isobel sigh and go "last time you didn't save remember next time :)" or you could put in a public works project and have resetti rant at you. But I liked how it was your choice
Finally an answer on how nintendo detects saveless resets
Wow it's exactly what I thought it was! I feel like you should've covered how other games did it as well. Feels kinda short only doing one. Besides the dialogue reading of course!
@@Zinkolo It's true this video did end up a tad short; I was really hoping the game's reset counter would overflow or crash so I could do some more in-depth explanations, but unfortunately they capped it. The other games also work pretty identically to the GameCube version so there wasn't a lot else to cover. The GameCube version also has the best Resetti dialogue / scenarios so I focused on that version, along with the player input secret -- though I regret not mentioning that you could actually visit Resetti's surveillance center in the Japanese e+ version.
While this video was somewhat short, next week's video will be longer and feature several very interesting technical explanations, so I hope you look forward to it! Thank you for the comments!
I look forward to it! I really enjoy your content and style man@@Hunter-R.
The long loading time when booting up already confirmed that for me, since AC doesn't need the disc inside to run. It literally keeps the whole game in RAM
I'm really drawn to this technical side of Animal Crossing. Particularly the GameCube version, as I grew up with it and yet continue to learn more new things about it through this niche but tight community.
I hope to see more from you!
I hated this guy! My ds was defective and the cartridge would sometimes come out, so I had to listen to him way too many times
I once saw somebody get the "I was bad!" prompt, and he wrote "I was good" instead.
Got a good chuckle out of me.
People wonder why so many people still prefer the og animal crossing even though it has less features, but stuff like this is exactly why. Mr Resetti along with Phillips and many of the other townsfolk are just so grumpy and rude I LOVE it. It makes talking to people so much more interesting and enjoyable. Many of the new games just have a bunch of boring goody two shoes as neighbors.
idk why but when i saw "Phillips" instead of "Phyllis" i just thought of Phillips CDi lmao
@@atlanticskies oops, autocorrect lol
@@prizm9515 I WONDERED who you meant.
For some reason I thought all the mean animals like that were really funny as a kid, even though in real life I was very sensitive and people like that would have scared me 😂
The shame of it is, they absolutely could have kept Resetti in a similar role in New Horizons, even with auto-save. Because Zarquon knows SOMEone should have been there to slap your wrist for messing with the system clock.
spoilsport lol
His job was to stop people from resetting, not from time traveling. And since nowadays time traveling is an officially recognized way to play by the game itself, there's no way they'd punish it.
@@GameAW1So was resetting. That's why the punishments were comedic rather than punitive.
@@KopperNeoman The difference is though that they always softly (or loudly in Resetti's case) discouraged resetting, even when the mole lost his job. But time travel was never once discouraged beyond what the game would normally do if you took too long to revisit.
@@KopperNeomantell that to all the children who resetti made cry
I was scared of Resetti as a kid...
But also grateful, because his presence made sure that I never lost anything because I *ALWAYS* saved to avoid his wrath.
The first time I ever encountered Resetti was in New Leaf. It was 1 am and I had just returned from Tortimer island. I was tired so I turned my 3ds off and went to sleep. Lo and behold, Resetti greats me the next morn instead of Isabelle. The worst part is I lost 4 golden stag beetles and 3 whale sharks.
Oof... talk about a rude awakening!
resetti always scared me because he would not immediately appear but you KNEW he was coming, there was so much dread and there was a brief moment of silence before he popped up. this was enough to make my brain relax and then get startled by him. the first time he appeared it freaked me out.
I've always wondered why they didn't go the extra mile and detect when the player resets multiple times in a row. Now that's sure to upset him.
5:42
RESET #8
THE FINAL RESET
-24 Hours Remain-
When i was a kid, my dsi eventually developed a glitch that meant that occasionally it would turn off whenever you tilted the screen using the hinge. Id say anout 50/50 odds. I played wild world. Resetti was so mad at me for NO GOOD REASON. I still flinch whenever i have to adjust the screen on my PERFECTLY FINE 3DS. Im still feeling those effects to this day. Fuck mr resetti, he terrorized my child self.
I had a laptop like that, it was my dads old computer from like 2010 or smth. Whenever i tried to adjust the screen it would completely turn off. I have no idea how i put up with that laptop for 5 years.
I will admit though, he taught many kids why their progress disappears sometimes.
I remember when I was about 5, my older brother's character's face was replaced with a gyroid face. He showed it to me and told me that Mr. Resetti did it. It really freaked me out and made me even more terrified/in awe of this crazy mole 😆
Because of that I could've sworn that one of the reset events was him taking your face, but I just googled it and apparently it just happens if you reset while visiting another town
The more you know
I used to think he actually hit the villager with his pickaxe during his livid animation. Fun stuff!
I encountered Resetti a LOT in my Wild World days... My cart was corroded and would frequently crash due to poor contacts between the cart and system... Playing WW was always a gamble because it wasn't a matter of if, it was a matter of WHEN it would crash
I was originally afraid of him because I thought he would try something terrible if I angered him enough. These days, I'm rather fond of his character. Rants and all! Also, I like the other side of him where he's a more relaxed individual. Don, of course, is the cherry on top!
EDIT: there's a popular rumor about Resetti
in only the EU version of City Folk
resetting too many times (some like 100 times I think)
will actually piss off Resetti to the point where he *actually wipes your save*
@@rydergolde3169 Good gravy! I don't know what to say...
@@rydergolde3169it’s fake I think
@@Owen-f5i1q you rite, idk why I never fact checked it before now
I also love how the first time you meet him each game, he thanks you for buying the game on behalf of Nintendo.
Eh, he's ALLOWED to be meta. He and his brother have passes to be meta!
The fakeout one is just evil lmao, I love ACGCN
I do wish that mr-resetti if the game crashes he says that in this case he's going easy on you since it was a case of where it was against anything you could've done and simply says that this is kinda why you need to save in the first place to ensure that you don't lose much progress
The first time I met Mr. Resetti was after a power glitch that shut my gamecube off. I was annoyed that he accused me of trying to game the system by resetting the game and to accept the consequences of my actions. After that, I purposefully would reset just to annoy him back. He became one of my most favorite characters after that.
Hey man, just watched loads of your videos, they're all really cute! Very digestible. I love my hour long decompiling videos, but it's nice also to be able to throw something on when I don't have time to watch something else.
I'm commenting to thank you for the captions on your videos! I have auditory processing issues, and that makes these sorts of videos hard to understand if I'm not 100% focused on them and only them at all times. Captions make my life so much easier in just comprehending what's being told me, so thank you for taking the time out of your day to write and/or include them!
Thank you for the kind words! I also prefer captions on a lot of content I watch, so I always try to include them when possible.
All of these videos are scripted, so it’s not too much work to just copy over the script and adjust the timings to match what I’m saying. But it does probably take an extra hour or so per 10min video - glad it helps! 😄
@@Hunter-R.It's crazy how many people who do scripted content don't even bother to throw the script into the transcript to let the system at least try. I do really appreciate that you put the work in, even if it doesn't feel like much.
Same here, re: auditory processing issues. I always appreciate creators who subtitle their videos, so thank you from me as well!
I first encountered Resetti in New Leaf and felt bad for him when he first appeared and how he apparently lost his job. I looked him up more about him and thought his whole thing was pretty charming. I rarely incurred his wrath afterwards, though I might've done it on accident...
He's be upset with the amount of resetting I've done in New Horizons.
Fun fact: He's an assist trophy in Super Smash Bros. Brawl and he's got some funny interactions. He'll counterattack if he keeps getting attacked and has special dialogue if he goes off-screen.
My hypothesis (prior to watching video):
- When you load your save file (village), the game saves a small flag that marks the file as unsaved (in application programming, commonly called a "dirty flag", except this one gets stored with the actual save file instead of just being held in active memory)
- This flag is cleared when you save and quit.
- When loading your save file, if the flag was _already_ set, this implies the prior session ended WITHOUT a "save and quit", so Mr.Resetti appears to berate the player.
Clever but technically simple stuff. I remember back when Mario Kart DS launched, it was theorized that when you play online, before the match starts the game pre-saves the outcome as a loss (in case you disconnect/power off), only to replace it with the _actual_ outcome upon completion of the match. There were many flaws in the design of MKDS's online but this was not one of them.
"Get a bath"
Okay, mole. Not like you dig underground and get more dirt on your overalls than Mario gets sewer water on his own.
You know, you made me realise he's a massive hypocrite.
I love how you talk like a deep voiced animal crossing character because of how much youve been playing XD
I like how you had to acknowledge at the end how much work that took. I was thinking the same thing. "He has to save, load, reset, and load again, in order to increase the count by one. That's tedious."
God I miss Resetti so so much... I remember losing my shit in NL because apparently I had reseted so many times (my old 3ds battery was failing so it would shut off randomly on me a few times) to the point where his brother started to show up instead of him and straight out told me Resetti had gotten so pissed off that his pressure got way too high and was told to just take it easy hence his brother replaced him LOL. Be it Don is waaay more chill about it, but something about practically endangering Mr. Resetti's healthy over resets really got to me.
A channel dedicated to the original Animal Crossing is the stuff of dreams. Love the videos, keep it up!
When I was a kid, my friend had a meltdown when Resetti does the fake-out game reset, so I can understand why Nintendo decided to phase him out. We had been waiting to play Smash Bros one afternoon and they wouldn't get off so my brother got upset and turned the console off. They started crying about Resetti warning them not to do it again and loaded the game back up to find the cutscene where he says he's going to reset your save file. Screaming ensues and hands are thrown, parents arrive wondering what the fight is about just to have smug-ass Resetti be on the screen saying "Gotcha." I feel bad about it because it ultimately did get them grounded for hogging the gamecube and starting a fight over a video game.
I started playing Animal Crossing recently, mostly GameCube and New Horizons, and while on GameCube for the first time I had a lot of fun making Resetti appear on purpose! I just started wondering how it works a few hours ago and suddenly I find this video without even looking anything up about it! What a crazy coincidence.
5:00 I had no idea, that’s hilarious! I need to try that in one of my videos!
That's awesome! I see you have a lot of content on Mario -- have you had a chance to try out Super Mario Wonder yet?
@@Hunter-R. Not yet! I really love Super Mario, mostly the older games. But since New Horizons is so good I might give Super Mario Wonder a try in the future!
the resetti edit at the start is so fire
Everyone asks "how does resetti work?" Nobody asks "how is resetti?"
what?
@@adamk-paxlogan7330Sucks Basically, people want to know the conditions under which Resetti operates, but nobody ever really stops to consider his mental health or general wellbeing.
Resetti was discouraging me from playing not only I have to do what I did before my game crashed again but I have to go through resetti's monologue , assuming my game won't crash again
His avatar isnt in New Horizons, but if you get stuck, there’s a number you can call to get unstuck, it uses a different version of his theme.
I'm surprised this wasn't covered, but in the GameCube version Resetti once turned my face into Coco's face. My sister and I kept trolling eachother for giggles and would turn the game off on eachother. We were obsessed with Coco, so we weren't mad we were just like WOAH how did we do that!?! I don't know if it was from resetting or if we glitched something. We left the game running for three days because we assumed if we saved and turned the game on it would go back to normal. We were right.
This occurs when you reset while visiting another player’s town through a second memory card. It’s pretty amusing, but wasn’t covered here since Resetti isn’t the one who does this to you. This actually occurs due to the game itself intentionally making you appear that way, but yea it will go back to normal after saving and quitting again.
such a cool video! i remember literally crying my eyes out when Resetti did the fake "delete your save data" trick. old crt tvs had that shut off effect and i thought i had lost everything. was hard to consistently save in a household where video games were considered "brain rotting" and "evil" lol
"was hard to consistently save in a household where video games were considered "brain rotting" and "evil" lol" Sorry to hear that.
I also was terrified of that guy. Was extremely young and could not speak english (not native) and was always confused what he was on about, but he still was kind of unsettling
"and could not speak english (not native) and was always confused what he was on about" He DOES tend to use a lot of metaphorical language, doesn't he?
@@Most-sane-deltarune-fan probably, don't know anymore, also doesn't quite matter, I was six and *literally* didn't know a single word in english, I just saw an angry guy screaming at me and that was enough lmao
You know, Mr Resetti would make a great anti-piracy mechanism. The whole "Console calls police" is boring, overused, and childish. Have the game go on as normal, but have him pop up with long text calling you a dirty pirate and have special events be canceled. The other villagers would also call you out on it.
@yoshiwoollyworldYeah, and the first APS to have that "feature" - that being the Mario Party DS one - was meant to be an over-the-top satire of Nintendo's very-well-documented "knight templar" behavior.
The various imitators kind of missed the point.
@@LendriMujina Imitators?
The first day I incurred Resetti's wrath was actually the day I first played AC on Gamecube. I got it on Christmas morning, but sometime in the afternoon there was a freak thundersnow storm, and the lighting was so close, I panicked and shut the game off without saving so I could unplug the Gamecube.
As a kid, I was taught that you should turn off and unplug computers during a thunderstorm, and that this applies to game consoles too. Of course nowadays I'm very lax about it, but I do avoid charging devices during severe weather.
I had a real problem with resetti on the DS version of the game. You had a slider, but neither me or my sister could get past it, so my game was essentially bricked. I have to say, resetti has to be the WORST idea any game developer has ever thought of.
skill issue
Resetti does appear in new horizons kinda, If you call the rescue service with your nookphone its actually resetti whos running the service. He even mentions autosaving.
True, but that’s such a minimal appearance that I don’t even really consider it one. He isn’t even named in that call!
They did eventually add him in an update and you can use his amiibo to invite him and Don to the Roost for coffee… but still lame he didn’t really appear officially outside of that.
@@Hunter-R. One time I had them show up randomly in The Roost and I relished the moment, because New Horizons is the only version I've ever really played.
...I never saw him again.
@@citrusella-nomorecraptions *gets right up in your face* What time was it?! What DAY was it?!!?
@@Hunter-R. "and you can use his amiibo to invite him and Don to the Roost for coffee… " and do vacation homes for them and bring 'em into Photopia at Harv's island to take cool pictures of them!
I always thought mr. Resetti was funny. The first time I encountered him, I reset repeatedly on purpose to read all his dialogue.
I was still in grade school, so I got stuck on his 6th reset because I couldn’t input his dialogue back properly, even after like ten or so attempts.
So I… reset the console again, in hopes that I wouldn’t have to enter something the next time, and be able to play the game again lmao.
I stopped resetting after that because I really thought he’d delete my save file, so it’s cool seeing the rest of his dialogue!
I wish that in new horizons, you could turn off the auto save, and only with the game in this state could he come and chastise you.
It would be harder for kids and casual players to mess with the settings, and would of been a fun Easter egg for the less casual players.
resetti gave my brother such trauma he smashed his ds cartridge with a hammer while crying
is your brother still traumatized to this day
Resetti will always be one of my favourite game characters *just because* he becomes so angry he breaks the fourth wall
i remember i booted up my city folk game once that i played with my sister and i completely lost my village, we had like a save file corruption and we couldnt start a new one.. sad day for the both of us
I always thought it was a troll to teach you to save for some reason. Cause wouldn't it have to auto save to know?
Only Nintendo would put a mechanic into the game purely to torment and upset the player, who would probably be a child
I remember Resetti from the OG game. I was so outraged that a game I owned had the nerve to lecture me about how to play it. I stopped playing after that
5:13 As a kid, I didn't know how to read or write too well and encountered Resetti when he made you rewrite a phrase. I could not for the life of me repeat exactly what he told me to, for whatever reason, and I cried about it. My older brother ended up doing it for me, lol. I didn't know that Resetti changes what he says depending on how many times you've reset. I guess I reset a lot as a kid
Ironically, my youtube app crashed right at the end of this video. Oh boy, I'll be getting a mouthful from him sooner or later...
Or an email/text/call to complain about what the hell just happened.
Imagine each time you mistype a command in your shell, Mr. Resetti shows up to tell you that you should stop making your shell mad. o.o
Oof... that'd be pretty annoying.
1:31 He actually is in new horizons. You can call him to rescue you with helicopter if you get stuck somewhere.
Well, we don't know how he does it. But it IS canon that he can swim! He's gotten me out of the sea a fair amount of times.
I used to hate resetti, I had wild world on an r4 card and it would crash a lot, so I constantly had to hear him yell at me for something I didn't even do
"You hair! Wash it" Ok, i'll turn my game off right now and do that
Not too related to the video, but I love your channel aesthetic and editing! So enjoyable to watch!!
Thank you! Likewise on your New Horizons video! It seems we share some of the same criticisms, but still overall enjoyed that game!
@@Hunter-R.New Horizons will always be "that game I played during covid" so it'll always have that nostalgia factor. But yeah, I wish I enjoyed it more lol
You deserve way more subscribers than you have, your videos are great! Keep it up!
Mr. Reseti lives through Groundhog Day every time you don't save. He is outside of time and space.
He practically lives in the void with Dr WD Gaster, the former Royal Scientist from Undertale and possibly Deltarune!
I remember being super confused by Mr.Resetti as a kid, cause I didn't play animal crossing much and didn't know how to save. Also I tried to mash through his dialogue every time, which just made him angrier.
I rented the Gamecube game, so I read up on "cheats" and tips and after playing for a couple days I time traveled and used an Action Replay. (Since I wouldn't get the full experience unless I bought the game anyway. I never did.) I reset the game on purpose just to see who this character is, and then I checked the "no Resetti" box on the Action Replay. That seemed to have had an opposite effect because he'd appear every time even if I saved.
I thought it was hilarious at first but then I found him really annoying because of how precise I had to be when saying the phrase he wanted me to say. (After telling him that he sucks, of course.) I couldn't even tell what was wrong half the time.
I wonder if the code locked the Resetti bit instead of turning it off? 😂
I remember playing a pirated version of the game where Resetti would always show up no matter what.
the first animal crossing game i really got into was new leaf. i did not know how to save, and he just got scarier and scarier to me. eventually i just made my dad open the game and deal with him for me because i could get so anxious and cry lol
I don't remember mr restti being that bad in new leaf O.O I remember there being 2 different options
yeah, i don't think you're thinking of new leaf, because resetti gets fired in new leaf and you have to pay to bring him back, and then when you do then he asks you _why_ you didn't save and if you tell him the power ran out then he lets you off lightly
In Wild World as a kid I used to reset on purpose because I thought Resetti was hilarious
i thought he actually does reset your game after enough resets, i thought the man was a legend
Even as an adult, this guy scares the hell out of me
Your footage is so sharp and crisp!
Mr Resetti scared me so much as a child im glad hes optional now. I purposefully will not give him his job back. So long, sucker!
As a kid playing animal crossing for the DS, I did not understand english, so I had a hard time knowing what to do when he showed up...
I'm going to guess, without watching the video first, that there is a boolean which is serialized to a file. If you start up the game and that boolean is read, and it's false, it means the game wasn't previously saved. This boolean likely is intelligently set to false after x number of minutes by default as well.
Edit: Yep. I was right.
I’m so obsessed with ur videos
Before you get to it, I'm gonna hazard a guess: I think it may be that the game writes a flag to your save file as soon as it gets loaded for the first time after saving, and clears it whenever you save and quit.
Also, I think it would have been nice if the reset-tracking had expiration periods. Like, if it would decrement every X amount of time that passes since the last time you've reset.
i love that "Bite Me!" is an unncaceptable phrase to resetti, maybe he dealt with Uzi too much lol
Great video!
Trivia: If you mash while Resetti is talking, he'll stop just to call you out on it and tell you to stop
Think that only happens in e+, City Folk and New Leaf.
@@nathangitz2674 Apparently, skipping Kapp'n's song in New Horizons has a similar effect.
I always loved mr resetti and found him hilarious. Sometimes I would reset just to see him yell
1:26 "The worst she can say is no."
I checked the timestamp, watched those 1-2 seconds, but still don't understand.
Resetti scared the heck out of me on Wild World as a kid - he threatened to delete my save file so I panicked and deleted the villager that hadn't saved to try and protect my file.
"so I panicked and deleted the villager that hadn't saved" Who was it? And do you mean the animal villagers, or the human characters?
@@Most-sane-deltarune-fan the human villager, my other ones hadn't angered Resetti so I thought if I deleted the one he was angry with then he wouldn't delete my entire town
@@VampireofEmotion Smart!
Thank you! I've always wondered how that guy works. That's a cool way of doing it, I wonder if there are any other games that pull similar tricks.
There was no official Chinese translation of the DS animal crossing. I played a fan translation version of the game. There is an known issue where the translation process breaks all textual understanding of the the input box, such as letters and also resetti input box. So one would be stuck in an infinite loop getting lectured by resetti if you get the "repeat after me" reset cycles. 😢
I love how in city folk he is more subtle about his anger but is still insanely pissed off and how you need to walk down from your house door before he jumps out making you think you are safe
That's one sneaky, sneaky, mole!
I hate the fact he exist telling you how to play your game but i envy craftsmenship with which he was made.
I loved gcb animal crossing, resetti was someone I came across because of power outages and such, and I loved him amongst the other cast members of the first game. I've played every game since. I played New Leaf the most and the wii one the least, but I absolutely loved each game including NH on switch
I will forever and always hold a soft spot for the first one, with all of that uncapped and seemingly experimental attitudes and personalities
I love this mechanic, I just laugh out loud at these cool 4th wall jokes, like resetti introducing himself as a Nintendo employee or turning your screen off
