** Actually, inflation, in small enough amounts, can be healthy for an economy. And the increase actually isn't that much; We can reasonably assume that Bells are based off of Japanese currency, where Yen are closer to Cents as opposed to Dollars- Meaning that, using US currency, an apple that would sell for a Dollar would instead sell for a Dollar and Twenty Cents with the Bell Boom ordinance. Besides, Inflation is a WEE bit more complex than an across the board 20% increase in the price of everything commonly bought and sold in stores.

* The villager Champ, who can move into your town in Wild World and City Folk, is the train station manager from the first game, Porter. This is implied by his similar appearance, catchphrase being "choo CHOO" and having a model train station in his house. Also Porter returns in New Leaf, in which it's impossible to get Champ in your town, the only villager to have been removed from City Folk.
* In New Leaf, they introduce a Pig villager named Kevin. [[KevinBacon Hmmm...]]

* In ''New Leaf'', Dr. Shrunk will only perform his jokes for you if you give him some fruit to eat. It's the developers' way of ensuring you will always have enough room when he gives you his jacket after telling you the last joke!

* The Gyroids are based off [[http://animalcrossinggoodies.tumblr.com/post/53655404800/gyroids-are-based-on-haniwa-clay-figures-that figurines found in ancient graves]]. When you dig them up, you are disturbing someone's remains. Even worse, since Gyroids exist, it's entirely possible that it could happen to your player character years after they pass away.

** In ''New Leaf'', the stingray and hammerhead shark go in the same tank in the museum, even though the description for the hammerhead shark clearly states that these sharks have a great taste for stingrays. Not only that, but there's also some other predatory fish, such as the piranha and shark, that are in the same tank as fish that they naturally eat.

* If you haven't played in a very long time, the villagers talk about how they haven't seen you in X months or X weeks. For example, this troper hadn't played in six years. He returned, and all the villagers claimed they hadn't seen him in 321 weeks. The fact that they have been counting every single week they've been separated from you is rather unsettling.
