A rare, original copy of the first game developed by the legendary husband and wife team of Ken and Roberta Williams has just hit eBay, and despite being little more than a floppy disk and a slip of paper inside a plastic bag, it's already set to fetch thousands of dollars after just one day on the auction site.
69-Year-Old Grandpa Shows Off Amazing Bell Count in Animal Crossing: New Horizons
10.03.2024 - 13:59 / gamerant.com / Dominik Bo / Nintendo
One 69-year-old Animal Crossing: New Horizons player has managed to build out an amazing bank account balance boasting in excess of 300 million Bells. A screenshot of his astonishing savings later made the rounds on social media, impressing a vocal portion of the Animal Crossing: New Horizons fandom.
Buying every house upgrade in Animal Crossing: New Horizons costs just under 6 million Bells. Since the game doesn't really impose firm goals on its players and even the most expensive pieces of furniture only have six-digit price tags, many will find their bank accounts growing gradually larger once they are done with upgrading their island facilities.
Even so, it is rare to see savings balances that are over the nine-digit threshold. Rarer still are players who succeed in putting away hundreds of millions of Bells for a rainy day. But that's precisely what Reddit user Willing-Nebula-6883 has managed to accomplish. Taking to social media, this self-described «69-year-old grandad» recently shared a screenshot of his Bank of Nook balance, which stood at 300,142,790 Bells as of early March. The player took over 4,000 hours to get to this point, meaning he's been making around 75,000 Bells per hour since starting Animal Crossing: New Horizons.
Elaborating on this achievement, the dedicated fan explained that there was no particular secret to the feat, attributing his astonishing bank account balance to «hard work.» He also confirmed that he doesn't practice time travel in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, making the volume of his wealth all the more impressive. His Bank of Nook account screenshot has garnered thousands of upvotes within days of going live, subsequently ending up on the front page of the largest Animal Crossing community on Reddit.
Dozens of fans took the time to praise Willing-Nebula-6883 for his dedication, with some stating they had never seen a bank account balance so large. Following numerous requests, the player shared his Dodo Code, DA-3623-4190-9118, allowing the community to visit his cozy island.
Animal Crossing: New Horizons players can visit Willing-Nebula-6883's island using Dodo Code DA-3623-4190-9118.
Players eager to follow in Willing-Nebula-6883's footsteps have no shortage of methods to earn a bunch of Bells in Nintendo's hit life sim. Although Turnip price speculation is one of the most popular strategies for generating wealth, risk-averse Animal Crossing: New Horizons players can also get rich by selling bread or other types of crafted goods. Selling wasps or rare fish like barreleye also adds up over time and is something that is fairly easy to accomplish on a daily basis.
