Town



At the beginning of all of the Animal Crossing Games, the Player will move into a Town(Also called a Village sometimes), where the entire game will take place. In this Town, there are many Buildings, most of which are home to "Villagers", who are, as the name of the series suggests, all Animals. Other buildings include Tom Nook's shop, The Able Sisters, and some buildings which are exclusive to certain games, like the Post Office(Only in Animal Crossing, and the Town Hall(Only in Animal Crossing Wild World), which seems to take the place of the Post Office.

Another main Building in the town, exclusive to Animal Crossing, is the Train Station, which is where the Player first arrives in the town(In Animal Crossing Wild World, instead the Player comes to town by Taxi). Using the Train Station, Players could also travel to their friend's towns, if they put a memory card for their town, and one for their friend's town in Memory Card slots A and B.

In Animal Crossing Wild World, instead Players can travel to other Player's towns using Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection, going through the Town Gate. However, they need another Player's Friend Code to travel to a town over Wi-Fi. Also, Players can travel from town to town without a Friend Code, if the other Player's Nintendo DS is within Wireless range.
