Lol I remember seeing that spaceship when I was young but I was so scared by it that I ran away. Later I thought I was just seeing things...until this video
Thanks! I always wondered what that was, but In my head I was imagining a ufo.. never thought Gulliver would come to city folk in a ufo.. interesting.. cuz he's usually found on the beach in other games.
His job varies from game to game animal forest (the original animal crossing game on Nintendo 64 In Japan only) he flew In a spaceship same with the port of the Nintendo 64 game to GameCube then came wildworld which again he had a spaceship new leaf I can't remember but I think he either wasn't in new leaf or if he was he was found on the beach as a knocked out sailor and new horizons he's again found on the beach as a knocked out sailor so they honestly can't make their minds up with his career choice obviously
Well you don't exactly aim, but you have to time your shot right. It is a rare occurrence though...and easy to miss even seeing the UFO if you're in the wrong part of town (or indoors) at that moment too.
@@jvgsjeff Ah ok. Was curious since I'm investigating the alien sightings in Animal Crossing games. I plan on doing a video about it where I explore mysteries/Easter Eggs in various games. I would actually love to feature your clip if that's ok.
Yeah, if you shoot it as it's leaving the town, the gear may not fall within your town and the UFO won't show up the next day. It's important to hit it at least several spaces before the town border.
@korinakorinakorina: I was recording on the days where I knew there was a chance he might come (at least in the past 1.5-2 months). So yeah, there were lots of times I ended up recording for nothing. But I knew it would happen eventually, so I wanted to be sure I captured the moment on video.
@cpmx1957: It's been about two years since I started taking care of my town, but I've changed it around a number of times. It was a gradual process. As for keeping it in order, watering flowers is basically the only hard part.
Despite everything I have done in this game (which is alot btw) I have never had this happen to me before and believe me I researched the shit out of how it happens when it happens etc can't get this bastard to fly through my town
@@lizthewolfhog5613 I only encountered it once and it was pure random I heard a strange sound and out of nowhere this big ass spaceship came zooming past me I was like WTF IS THAT and tried to shoot it down but wasn't quick enough and have never seen it since
He does appear the next day and ask you to find it...assuming the gear landed within the town limits. I just look for it the same day I shoot him down just to be sure.
They were sent out by Nintendo as downloadable items back in 2011, so you can't get them in-game. You'd probably have to hack your Wii to get them now (and I don't know anything about that).
You'll need to be in the right place at the right time. He flies so fast that you're more likely to hear him than see him. For the details, check out the UFO guide I linked to in the description.
@jvgsjeff Hey this was done on the night I played with my friend from Japan online! Also for some reason that UFO looks like the UFO Kirby can use in Kirby's Adventure...
The UFO comes on random days (but only on Mondays through Thursdays), maybe around once a month (and sometimes more). Check the Gulliver/UFO guide I linked in the description for more details.
Brilliant! We haven't been so lucky...heard him once, but missed. Not seen him since. Darnit. Only shot him down in WW a few times, but haven't been playing lately. I'm buried in schoolwork.
I have yet to encounter Gulliver's ship in City Folk. Heck I don't remember if I ever saw it in Wild World. But considering that I have a gear stored in my inventory, I might have. Though I find it hilarious that a small pebble that was slingshot by a kid would knock down a ufo. Seriously, how strong is the Villager?
Update are they any date of the month that are its peak or when he shows up the most. I got two of the ghost in one month and there just as scarce as the ufo
@maryann2573: It wasn't my first try, but thank you. :) (I've seen/heard the UFO about 3 times before, and spent many other days checking for him, but to no avail).
@larion95: It's not luck. I've been checking for him almost daily for a month and a half (on the days where he's able to come--Mondays thru Thursdays when there are no visitors in town) and many, many attempts to find him came up empty. So I'd say the "one word" was persistence, not luck.
Can you hear the audio cue of his ship if you're standing in the middle path? Even if he's traveling along the top or bottom paths? In other words: can I just camp the middle path and keep an ear out for his ship?
I haven't really tested that out, but I don't think it would work. Hearing it is usually an indication that you're on the right track and it's nearby. Feel free to test it out, though!
If you mean slingshots in general, you can buy them at the shop (after upgrading the store once, I believe). As for the golden slingshot, you can get it from a balloon after you've already shot down 15 or so regular balloons.
@@jvgsjeff as an five yr old (or older) i never realised you could use slingshots to shoot down stuff in wild world (ww was the only game i played back then before nh but i got bored of nh)
April 7 was the first time I shot it down, but the dates it comes are random. I highly recommend ACC's Gulliver/UFO FAQ I have linked to in the description.
@jvgsjeff how to get on top of the cliff on the right and the left side because whenever i play there's no slopes for me to get up the cliff to pluck the fruits (the peaches thingy)
Are there any strategies to knowing when Gulliver's UFO will spawn? As of writing this I saw him flying over my town yesterday but had zero chance to shoot him down. Any information will help cause I really wanna him down lol. This is on City Folk btw.
If it's his day to visit, his ship can appear at x:02 or x:07. There's a lot more to it, though. Check out my description on this video: ruclips.net/video/pMcGQ16R9RI/видео.html.
@@jvgsjeff thank you! I've been able to properly check for Gulliver's UFO for a few days now. Along with the website helping me with other things like what the empty lamp was for, cause I've had that thing forever now and just found it what it does.
Nice. btw how long did it take you to get your city to look like... well that, and all thoughs fruits.. amazing, and is it hard to keep everything in order?
Jeff, please help me. I have been playing this game since the release and never found the ufo. :( You seem to be expecting it in the video... how did you know it would come and that it would come there? :(
jvgsjeff update: Hey I just had saw the ufo in my town I know the day so I will back It had around 1:04 in the afternoon I few more questions the ufo did not come for a second time five minutes later so will it come back the next hour (2:04) Will it travel this same path for the next hour. I was not expecting it to come the south path. I got two paths the north is where I remember coming on but the south one is new Lastly will resetting the game to go back to the hour I saw it will that bother you catching it?
Yes, you can even use the regular slingshot to shoot it down. But it's harder to do, since the regular only fires one shot while the gold one shoots three.
Lol I remember seeing that spaceship when I was young but I was so scared by it that I ran away. Later I thought I was just seeing things...until this video
I love how everyone just thought they were imagining it as kids lmaoo
out looking for scorpions then i scared a golden stag and missed the ufo why god

When I was little the Scorpions always scared me so bad XD
Same XD

That anticlimactic crash tho... you expect to hear a loud BOOOM!!! once it's offscreen but nope 🤣
i remember shooting it down the nostalgia right now is unreal!
lol that was really cute when you made your player clap after you found the spaceship part! XD
Bro wtf is the point in wearing a space helmet if his nose and mouth are on the outside
Ah see when something like that happens a wizard did it
This is memory lane.
FlashCW Apt. 4 is that so do you mind sharing any tips
@@christinab.2864 for getting the U.F.O to appear?
I never meet Guliver after 800 h playthrough. One of the missing me character in game.
@videofun51: You must start playing at the top of the hour then. Because the UFO will only come in the first 10 minutes of an hour.
@LuigiFan911: No, I only water the wilted ones (and black roses) and it only takes 10-15 minutes.
It was DLC that Nintendo sent out in America in September 2010 in honor of the GameCube game's 8th anniversary.
Oh wow! I never played the game. How hard is it to hit the UFO? Do you have to manually aim? I imagine this event is super rare.
Well you don't exactly aim, but you have to time your shot right. It is a rare occurrence though...and easy to miss even seeing the UFO if you're in the wrong part of town (or indoors) at that moment too.
@@jvgsjeff Ah ok. Was curious since I'm investigating the alien sightings in Animal Crossing games. I plan on doing a video about it where I explore mysteries/Easter Eggs in various games. I would actually love to feature your clip if that's ok.
@@MissingNumber If you're only using a short clip and you give credit, then that's fine.
@@jvgsjeff Sure thing. Thanks!
@97Milo9TV: Yes, the Metroid is one of the items Gulliver gives out.
Yeah, if you shoot it as it's leaving the town, the gear may not fall within your town and the UFO won't show up the next day. It's important to hit it at least several spaces before the town border.
I never experienced this, but it was cool to find out it existed. The movie shows it, right?
Yes, Gulliver has a UFO in the movie. 🛸

That's super cool

He does appear the next day and ask you to find it...assuming the gear landed within the town limits. I just look for it the same day I shoot him down just to be sure.
How do you get the gold furniture because I saw it in your basement.
They were sent out by Nintendo as downloadable items back in 2011, so you can't get them in-game. You'd probably have to hack your Wii to get them now (and I don't know anything about that).
@@jvgsjeff Maybe I can hack the Wii but it will take some time.
How do I get the golder thing to water plants?
To get the golden watering can, you have to achieve perfect town status (ask Pelly/Phyllis about the environment) and then maintain it for two weeks.
You'll need to be in the right place at the right time. He flies so fast that you're more likely to hear him than see him. For the details, check out the UFO guide I linked to in the description.

In city folk and wild world gulliver does not have a ship, in this games he is a alien, but in new leaf he returned to the ship
Hope i helped :)
@RavesandRouge: Yeah, he will always be washed up on the beach.
Heh heh, Gulliver's beak is in the ground when he's lying down.
I could've sworn there was an alien villager, not Gulliver
Some say Octavian the octopus looks like he could be an alien. He also has a space-themed room.
Wow i never had him I was looking at the game but he did not come at the night :(
Yes, the following day, he will give you a rare item if you return his spaceship part to him.
I saw it in my town but I was talking to someone and it passed me while I was talking
F
Creepy gift...
BobUgLee It's the Bocca della Verita, a stone face in an italian chapell, which bites off your hand if you have ever lied
@MegaVallygirl: Those are cherry blossoms. It's like that for a few days in early April.
No, the UFO comes randomly (but only Mondays through Thursdays). Check out the UFO guide I linked in the video description for more details.
Every hour just like the balloons
Update are they any date of the month that are its peak or when he shows up the most. I got two of the ghost in one month and there just as scarce as the ufo
@11thLegion: A little smaller. The GameCube game had 30 acres, City Folk has 25.

I found Gulliver's UFO Winter of 2010 but I didn't have the slingshot at the time.
Wow when u find him it’s like when u rescue him in the GameCube and 3ds
Can you hear the audio cue of his ship if you're standing in the middle path? Even if he's traveling along the top or bottom paths?

@RavesandRouge it can also land on your fountain if your unlucky
He stays the rest of the day, even if you give him the spaceship part. But he'll be gone the next day.
@MrAlishibly66: It was downloadable content (DLC) that Nintendo sent out in 2011.

@jvgsjeff Once again, congrats! Glad you got it in your first try! ;)
Did you just so happen to have it recording on this attempt, or did you always have it on just in case? :o
Nice shot
BTW your town looks awesome
@97Milo9TV: Yep. Hopefully it won't be another 2.5 years until the next time, because I really want a Metroid. =]
yeah i know i was playing this when i looked up this video, and i pressed up by accident. 30 minutes later, you responed to my comment. :)
That gift is creepy
@43cire: Press up on the digital control pad.
bro leave mr. mouth alone
That is a BIG ufo!
Do you need to set it on a certain date to shoot down the ufo?
@jvgsjeff Yeah, its hard to find in CF
PS: Gulliver gives the Metroid?
@spinninglight: Yes, there's only one piece to find.
April 7 was the first time I shot it down, but the dates it comes are random. I highly recommend ACC's Gulliver/UFO FAQ I have linked to in the description.
jvgsjeff hm so it’ll come more concisely on the date 7th, 14th, 21th, 28th just as long it didn’t fall on Friday, or the weekends, other matters

Definitely bigger but it also doesn’t have furnishings which make the island feel smaller and maths which make it feel connected
Nice. btw how long did it take you to get your city to look like... well that, and all thoughs fruits.. amazing, and is it hard to keep everything in order?
