I don't know how Animal Crossing music always sounds so bittersweet. I'd love to know the music theory behind it. Listening and being flooded with memories really brought a tear to my eye. These songs really go well with a series that seems happy and simple at first glance. The games can be bittersweet too, though. The player character always begins by moving far from home to a strange new town, and they get letters from their mom who they don't get to see. Villagers come and go, and we build such attachments to our towns that we get nostalgic when we realize how long it's been since we've visited them. Animal Crossing is such a special series, and this was a very special medley and performance. Thank you.
My feelings exactly!! I sat here like, “why am I crying??” And you get it. Thank you for sharing your words, and of course many thanks to Erik for sharing such a beautiful medley.
If you have a 3ds get new leaf, I don’t know much about the new game, since I haven’t played it and I didn’t watch too many videos, but believe me when I say New Leaf is just AWESOME
The New Leaf part gave me really intense shivers... wow :0 I spent hundreds of hours playing it, and I am going to spend thousands playing New Horizons
I kept playing New Leaf until February and started playing New Horizons. I was 5 when I got new leaf so like an idiot I named myself STEVE (that’s not my name lol) and my town CHILE. But in New Horizons, My name is Christian and my island is Galaxia. So far I love animal crossing new horizons and the entire franchise. It will always hold a special place in my heart.
I feel like this quote perfectly describes me playing animal crossing when I was 9 ish, those were the good times. Now whenever I hear the music I get all teary.
I remember staying up all night with my 3DS under my lamp and playing animal crossing new leaf until 4am trying to finish all the tasks. These kind of times I will never forget and I will never forget that warm, comfy feeling. Animal Crossing knows how to create such a memorable time in your life
the nostalgia brings me to tears 😭😭 it makes me think of those early mornings id get up from bed and just lay down on the floor in my living room and just relax with my dsi playing animal crossing, i wish i could just go back in time and play every single game for the first time again, like this really hurts, but in a good way, like im happy to have these memories and im happy that i got to grow up playing the series
I've never played City Folk but something about the theme gets me. Maybe it's the way it sounds, maybe it's nostalgia from Wii Music (though I only started playing that like a year or two ago but nonetheless still nostalgia).
Here's a more chill medley to put you in the mood for the New Animal Crossing. The AC community is a niche but strong one, so be sure to share it with your fellow island-goers!
1:17 I spent hours playing animal crossing City folk when I was younger. I recently got my wii out and started playing it, but it's funny how the theme can hit so hard.
The piano version of the theme from New Horizons sounds like what would sound on a videogame nomination where they nominated New Horizons and people heard it and got excited immediately, I just thought of this scene, anyone else did? no? just me? ok..
My goodness the whole medley was amazing. Ive always loved the city folk and wild world title theme and have played city folk sooooo much and have many memories with my siblings in the game. Animal crossing music is beautiful and u really hit me hard with the city folk
Jesus loves you! I warn you of your sins, repent and believe the Gospel! If you love Him then keep His commandments! MAKE THE CHOICE, JESUS OR THE WORLD, JESUS IS ETERNAL, THE WORLD IS PASSING AWAY!!!!!
I just died at the city folk one, I am not ready to remember all the hours I spent in that. Everyday, for 4 years, before my Wii broke down. Perfect Town, Nearly every Item in the game. I never got to play it with anyone though.
Animal Crossing was one of the few games where you couldn't back it up to an SD card. I homebrewed my Wii just to extract my save file in case my Wii from 2006 ever decides to die. The only problem is that the save file can only be put back into the game on another homebrewed Wii, so if my Wii ever dies, I have to get another one and homebrew it too if I want to play my old save.
Me too and idk why bc i grew up playing WW, not NL. I guess my heart aches hearing the theme because I realize how much of a good game NL was compared to WW with the fact that you can be mayor and do stuff to your town (which you couldn't do in ww) and ofc having the lovely Isabelle as your faithful assistant throughout the way.
Though I was kinda late to the community, just starting in New Leaf, I quickly became attached and loved every single animal I came across. I'm glad to be apart of this fandom, even if I'm a bit late on it.
This video made me truly realize just how special the original is to me. Hearing you play the title theme for it.. I just started to cry, I remember the game, and how I loved every piece of it. All the playground rumours, all the villagers who at the time, we're just fun npcs. But now comfort me as I become an adult. My entire life changing. I cherish these memories. They're so perfect. Bring Sven back >:(
I’m 12, so My first one was new leaf 🍃 and just got new horizons.. WHOS CHOPPING THE ONIONS?!?! I love animal crossing so much even though I’m not as familiar with the older games 🥰 it will always have a special place in my heart 💓
These themes are all so beautiful, but your rendition of Wild World made tears almost instantly come out of this grown woman's eyes. What a deeply nostalgic sound. There's something so bittersweet about it. Beautifully arranged ❤️
I was one of those rare breeds where City Folk was my first Animal Crossing game, I loved it so much and the theme will always have a special place in my heart...
The new leaf one really hit me hard, I've heard the city folk and wild word theme many many times after I stopped playing, it still gives me that warm little town feel, but I haven't heard the new leaf theme since i lost my 3DS, boy did that bring tears to my eyes real fast
City Folk was my first... man I miss the times, me and my sister fought for who will play. Now I'd let her play for hours just to have the time together again. But sadly, those times have passed. My sister is almost 9 years older and while she makes her doctorate right now in another country (haven't seen her for months due to covid), I try to understand algebra through online studies :( I just miss my big sis.. the house seems so dull without her presence, her complaining about being woken up and stuff. Now my last hope is for Zelda BOTW 2 to come out as soon as possible, since when BOTW came out, we had a blast together, exploring the world, searching for shrines, completing quests... Well.. let's hope
Stunning! I'm so pleased with New Horizons, man! Wild world blew my mind, that I could have such a fun, lively little town in my pocket was just amazing. New Horizons is currently blowing my mind in all sorts of other ways!!
Same! I see all these kids playing new horizons, and I’m over here like pssh y’all don’t know about e-readers and playing playable NES games in your house
The original theme brings me back to playing animal crossing with my sister in the living room for hours. Taking turns on each other’s characters to catch fish while it was raining. Getting KK’s songs every Saturday. Stopping by the fountain to say hi to Tortimer. My mom would play too, she’d make us pull the weeds 😂 she died last November, but these songs bring us back together. Listening now, these medleys do nothing short of make me teary-eyed with nostalgia. Thank you for making these videos and helping us feel closer to such good memories.
AHHHH IM ACTUALLY CRYINGNGNGN so I had new leaf growing up when it first came out, and I had about 900+ hours on it. I had almost all the house upgrades, the museum real full, all the stuff. but one day, 2 years ago, I lost the cartridge. been cleanings the area I know I lost it ever since, still no hope. I really miss my villagers, since I had a very good relationship with I think Melba? dang this really brought the feels
Nice to see you’re appealing to the *City Folk* and maybe some of the people in the *Wild World.* It’s awesome to see this *New Leaf* of music on the channel! Can’t wait for the channel to reach the *New Horizons* ahead, since you definitely deserve some popularity.
City folk wasnt super memorable to a lot of people since it's basically the same thing as wild world so it went unnoticed, but I personally love city folk and all the different features it has to offer
this makes me tear up every time i listen. the animal crossing series has been so therapeutic for me as a way to escape all of the bad things i feel sometimes. even just doing mundane tasks like fishing, selling items and gardening soothes my soul so much. and the beautiful hourly music is just the big red bow on top. thank you this!!❤️🙏
Thanks for the medley Piano Man! I love Animal Crossing and i'll never forget the days when i sat in front of my Gamecube or 3ds playing for hours on end. Thanks for making the memories rush back.
wild world hit hard 😔 I remember 7 year old me playing this game at any given moment. Sadly, my father sold it without my knowledge when remodelling my room. Still kinda sad about that, would love to revisit my town sometimes
I am really excited to play it, but my friends don't want to buy it, bc of the crisis and this stuff. Should I still buy it and play it offline? Is it worth it?
Arjun Soni yeaaah I bought it and I loved it. The only problem is that if i wanna play for hours without stopping, i would have to change time so I could do things I would have wait to do. Should I skip time sometimes or should i just wait?
GaBeyBey yeah, I’m probably late but you can go to your house and put things in your storage, you can only access in your house tho. Also if u want to skip time u should, I say you shouldn’t but some people can only play during certain times of the day. And in the end, it’s your game, play it however you want to.
I really love this Medley, it brings me back to when I first ever played an animal crossing game, I was 4, and borrowed my big sis' pink ds lite to play some classic wild world. I love the game so much that my mum bought me a ds and the game a couple months later. My little brother also got a copy, and we played it together alot. Along with my cousins, we'd all play together running around wildly in the world, and trying our best to control the game :D. 12 years on, and I still enjoy this series, and find it fun just talking to villagers. Thanks for the amazing Medley XD.
I love the original theme so much... reminds me of when I was 6, playing the game with me sister when it first came out. Time flies, but the memories stay
As someone who hasn't played that much Animal Crossing, I gotta say I enjoy the tunes, and this piano arrangement is awesome! Just started New Horizons today and it looks to be a ton of fun!
Throws me back to playing with my cousin, helping eachothers town, falling asleep while playing under the blankets and having to deal with Resetti the day after, classroom house showoffs. 2006 was a simpler time.
I started playing animal crossing when I was 5. my dad bought me it because he also played it when he was younger. I basically just grew up with animal crossing i couldnt read that good yet but i was still able to play it. AcWW hits me hard it was my first animal crossing game
You know, I’ve never even played animal crossing ever. But, I still feel some kid of nostalgia even though there is no nostalgia to begin with. These songs are damn good man
The city folk theme is what got me, city folk was my first experience with video games when i was little, so it will always hold a special place in my heart
Wild World was my first Animal Crossing game - and my first ever Nintendo game. I haven’t heard the theme in years, but it took me right back to my mom’s apartment when I was in elementary school. Thank you for this, it’s lovely.
This just.. wow, it brings back so much memories from seeing my cousin playing this game and enjoying the whole world of Anima Crossing. We've really grown.
My first animal crossing was wild world and I remember playing it on my moms ds and I just have a special place in my heart for that game and it’s music ❤️😭
NL was my first AC game and oh dear, I was playing this game so much and never got bored once. I remember my cousins getting it just a few months after me, for christmas 2014 and we played so many hours together.... I dearly love this game and always will and ngl when the NL theme came on I started crying, just because of all the memories of getting home after elementary school and just playing til late evening :) thank you for this, it's honestly so beautiful
What kind of game is Animal Crossing? Like what’s it about because I’m considering buying it! I got my switch only recently for my birthday (which was on Feb 2 I turned 14) and all I wanted was a switch especially Botw. I’ve had it for over a month now and I still only have Botw and Smash Brothers so I’ve been lookin for a next game to by so if anyone gives me some ideas on what this games all about I’d appreciate it.
I just bought the new animal crossing and its honestly very good. Its not very easy to describe u could always watch gameplay. Theres not too many goals its about relaxing catching bugs and fish designing your own home and watching as more people move in onto the island with u (npcs) and u can interact with them. One of my favourite games very relaxing and fun
Buy octopath traveler and fire emblem three houses These are not masterpiece but both a 8,5 out of 10 Definitly worth buying, with the likes of botw etc ... . ( i got 350 hours on three houses 150 on octo and 230 on botw ) so these are also really good in terms of cost/hour
Ah, yes. The nostalgic feel when you finally realize in Wild World that Lyle's insurance company is a scam. And that Redd is a scam... And that Tom Nook really is creepy and can't be trusted but you still love him.
Animal crossing on the GameCube was so simple but that title theme I heard gave me so much shivers and tingles I can’t right now 😭 the good ol’ days. Thank you for bringing me back
All these people who are saying WW or NL are their first Animal Crossing....I'm glad you enjoy the series but geez. Don't make me feel so old guys... I have always been the type of person to sleep in whenever I could, but during the summer as a kid I would try to get up early to play on my good ole Gamecube and catch the morning aerobics with my villagers. Its a game that will always remind me of a time when the only things on my mind were turnip prices and catching fish. It was one of the few games everyone in my family played too. I have a lot of good memories with this series, every single entry, including some newer ones with New Horizons. I'm so glad that so many people are trying it out for the first time and getting to share that simple relaxed feeling it gives.
city folk was my first ac game, i remember messing up my mums island and ALWAYS looking for clyde and nan to talk to them. i was around 7, i loved the game so much, my wii still works and i can still play it whenever i want but its still nice to hear this theme tune again :)
This medley made me realize that even in a game where you just do tasks that you could do in real life can actually have some good music in it.
SaY mY nAmE and then you can take the music and listen to it while you do tasks irl and have the AC mood 24/7.

In 10 years, we may still have new horizons so we will see, the gap between new leaf and Horizon was well, "Floofy"

Laugh Class it’s not nostalgia it’s bliss nostalgia means you reminisce on a old happy memory this is bliss.
It’s because it reminds you of past years. Video game music sounded more like beeping back then, but over the years it became more and more cleaner.

My mom would play too, she’d make us pull the weeds 😂 she died last November, but these songs bring us back together.
Listening now, these medleys do nothing short of make me teary-eyed with nostalgia. Thank you for making these videos and helping us feel closer to such good memories.
That‘s like my whole childhood.. not gonna lie, I teared up a little 🥺
AHHHH IM ACTUALLY CRYINGNGNGN
so I had new leaf growing up when it first came out, and I had about 900+ hours on it. I had almost all the house upgrades, the museum real full, all the stuff. but one day, 2 years ago, I lost the cartridge. been cleanings the area I know I lost it ever since, still no hope. I really miss my villagers, since I had a very good relationship with I think Melba? dang this really brought the feels
melba is the cutest koala ever! she is my favorite villager
Nice to see you’re appealing to the *City Folk* and maybe some of the people in the *Wild World.* It’s awesome to see this *New Leaf* of music on the channel! Can’t wait for the channel to reach the *New Horizons* ahead, since you definitely deserve some popularity.
Wild west 😳
His population’s growing!
wild world*
I grew up with City folk
im slow thats how
bruh is it just me or did no-one remember city folk
that game was my childhood 😭😭
My first animal crossing game. My childhood too.
Mine as well.I still yell at Redd for selling crappy stuff
Yep my first was city-folk too
City folk wasnt super memorable to a lot of people since it's basically the same thing as wild world so it went unnoticed, but I personally love city folk and all the different features it has to offer
Mine was wild world :( we never got City folk on the wii haha
this makes me tear up every time i listen. the animal crossing series has been so therapeutic for me as a way to escape all of the bad things i feel sometimes. even just doing mundane tasks like fishing, selling items and gardening soothes my soul so much. and the beautiful hourly music is just the big red bow on top. thank you this!!❤️🙏
Thanks for the medley Piano Man! I love Animal Crossing and i'll never forget the days when i sat in front of my Gamecube or 3ds playing for hours on end. Thanks for making the memories rush back.
wild world hit hard 😔 I remember 7 year old me playing this game at any given moment. Sadly, my father sold it without my knowledge when remodelling my room. Still kinda sad about that, would love to revisit my town sometimes
You should try and find it lol
Did he do it on purpose or accidentaly
I am really excited to play it, but my friends don't want to buy it, bc of the crisis and this stuff. Should I still buy it and play it offline? Is it worth it?
Arjun Soni yeaaah I bought it and I loved it. The only problem is that if i wanna play for hours without stopping, i would have to change time so I could do things I would have wait to do. Should I skip time sometimes or should i just wait?
Arjun Soni Is there a way I can store my items cus i still dont have a house and i cant buy "bigger pockets" lol
Arjun Soni i still dont have more inventory space ( ill buy it tday), but is there a way I can store my items, like in a chest or smth?
Arjun Soni yeah I got it XD tnx
GaBeyBey yeah, I’m probably late but you can go to your house and put things in your storage, you can only access in your house tho. Also if u want to skip time u should, I say you shouldn’t but some people can only play during certain times of the day. And in the end, it’s your game, play it however you want to.
I really love this Medley, it brings me back to when I first ever played an animal crossing game, I was 4, and borrowed my big sis' pink ds lite to play some classic wild world. I love the game so much that my mum bought me a ds and the game a couple months later. My little brother also got a copy, and we played it together alot. Along with my cousins, we'd all play together running around wildly in the world, and trying our best to control the game :D. 12 years on, and I still enjoy this series, and find it fun just talking to villagers. Thanks for the amazing Medley XD.
oh my god the nostalgia hit at wild world
excellent arrangement :)
I love the original theme so much... reminds me of when I was 6, playing the game with me sister when it first came out. Time flies, but the memories stay
Just absolutely beautiful... the title theme from City Folk made me cry 😷😭
As someone who hasn't played that much Animal Crossing, I gotta say I enjoy the tunes, and this piano arrangement is awesome! Just started New Horizons today and it looks to be a ton of fun!
Turning on my 3ds and hearing the heartwarming theme of new leaf was the best feeling ever
Throws me back to playing with my cousin, helping eachothers town, falling asleep while playing under the blankets and having to deal with Resetti the day after, classroom house showoffs.
2006 was a simpler time.
I started playing animal crossing when I was 5. my dad bought me it because he also played it when he was younger. I basically just grew up with animal crossing i couldnt read that good yet but i was still able to play it. AcWW hits me hard it was my first animal crossing game
I can’t be the only one to say that I don’t like new horizons music as much as the others.
And you’re not. I love the older soundtracks a lot more too
I’d agree, but the piano rendition is pretty good. I wish they’d opted for piano in the game.
Yea I especially like ww/cf, as well as new leaf and the 1st one. But mostly that 1.
GameCube takes first place. Second is WW and CF.
fax
I still remember the days I played AC on my Wii...
This is so amazing, up to new leaf is nostalgic and the music for new horizons just feels like the next adventure
Can't believe it's been 20 years already. And only now is it finally gaining the recognition it has always deserved. Tears are flowing.
1:17 THAT ONE HURT
I love Animal Crossing New Leaf ❤️
You know, I’ve never even played animal crossing ever. But, I still feel some kid of nostalgia even though there is no nostalgia to begin with. These songs are damn good man
The city folk theme is what got me, city folk was my first experience with video games when i was little, so it will always hold a special place in my heart
Oh my god the intro to the gamecube theme made me legit tear up and wild world gave me chills I LOVE THIS GAME SERIES SO MUCH
Fricc I missed the premiere by like a minute 😔
I will definitely be enjoying these chill beats while doing my classes online tho
DS Music dude AC music is perfect for studying and doing chores n stuff.
2:17 i still play acnl so it just makes me happy lol. plus the theme is actually played in piano isn’t it?? so there’s a lot of resemblance
New Leaf is like heaven to me
Wild World was my first Animal Crossing game - and my first ever Nintendo game. I haven’t heard the theme in years, but it took me right back to my mom’s apartment when I was in elementary school. Thank you for this, it’s lovely.
Wow the beginning of the video already brought back so much nostalgia. GCN Animal Crossing will forever have a place in my heart
E
Yup, I also feel that way, since in the 4 years I played the game almost no villagers moved out
And all my Amiibo villagers wont remember me :( imma miss the Squid Sister ones
Kiel Renrut i didnt even say goodbye I just straight up lost wild world and I’m so fucking sad over it 😔
i deleted my new leaf town once i got very far. i just didn't have anything left to do! sucks now because my 3ds broke
Kiel Renrut true
New leaf was my first animal crossing game and I started playing like last year
OU MY GOD I STILL HAVE CITY FOLK AND WHEN I HEARD IT I *DIED*
This just.. wow, it brings back so much memories from seeing my cousin playing this game and enjoying the whole world of Anima Crossing. We've really grown.
My first animal crossing was wild world and I remember playing it on my moms ds and I just have a special place in my heart for that game and it’s music ❤️😭
I will always remember my first animal crossing game: Animal Crossing Sweet Day from Nintendoland
same-
Wild World theme always makes me cry
Wild World / City Folk gets me crying hard
This video made me smile so much. These melodies are REALLY special. 😭
NL was my first AC game and oh dear, I was playing this game so much and never got bored once. I remember my cousins getting it just a few months after me, for christmas 2014 and we played so many hours together.... I dearly love this game and always will and ngl when the NL theme came on I started crying, just because of all the memories of getting home after elementary school and just playing til late evening :) thank you for this, it's honestly so beautiful
What kind of game is Animal Crossing? Like what’s it about because I’m considering buying it! I got my switch only recently for my birthday (which was on Feb 2 I turned 14) and all I wanted was a switch especially Botw. I’ve had it for over a month now and I still only have Botw and Smash Brothers so I’ve been lookin for a next game to by so if anyone gives me some ideas on what this games all about I’d appreciate it.
I just bought the new animal crossing and its honestly very good. Its not very easy to describe u could always watch gameplay. Theres not too many goals its about relaxing catching bugs and fish designing your own home and watching as more people move in onto the island with u (npcs) and u can interact with them. One of my favourite games very relaxing and fun
Buy octopath traveler and fire emblem three houses
These are not masterpiece but both a 8,5 out of 10
Definitly worth buying, with the likes of botw etc ... .
( i got 350 hours on three houses 150 on octo and 230 on botw ) so these are also really good in terms of cost/hour
Also try Xenoblade Chronicles 2, it has a lot of gameplay hours
Yeah I agree all these rpgs being suggested are good but new horizons is just so calming
CNA ANTHEXY he could just get new horizon
Ah, yes. The nostalgic feel when you finally realize in Wild World that Lyle's insurance company is a scam. And that Redd is a scam... And that Tom Nook really is creepy and can't be trusted but you still love him.
3:53 Honestly, this fucking bops
Literally all the songs in this video made me get goosebumps and tear up, thanks for making this video I’m able to relive my past for a bit
Animal crossing on the GameCube was so simple but that title theme I heard gave me so much shivers and tingles I can’t right now 😭 the good ol’ days. Thank you for bringing me back
*Ah, hello childhood.*
1:16 this hits different
Accf really makes my heart hurt however i still have the game and will play tmrw!!!!
All these people who are saying WW or NL are their first Animal Crossing....I'm glad you enjoy the series but geez. Don't make me feel so old guys...
I have always been the type of person to sleep in whenever I could, but during the summer as a kid I would try to get up early to play on my good ole Gamecube and catch the morning aerobics with my villagers. Its a game that will always remind me of a time when the only things on my mind were turnip prices and catching fish.
It was one of the few games everyone in my family played too. I have a lot of good memories with this series, every single entry, including some newer ones with New Horizons. I'm so glad that so many people are trying it out for the first time and getting to share that simple relaxed feeling it gives.
city folk was my first ac game, i remember messing up my mums island and ALWAYS looking for clyde and nan to talk to them. i was around 7, i loved the game so much, my wii still works and i can still play it whenever i want but its still nice to hear this theme tune again :)
