Fuusui Mysteries
Are you familiar with the ancient art of Fuusui (Feng-Shui)? Who would have guessed that it even applies to Nintendo's Animal Forest? It's all about how you arrange your furniture in your house.

- Orange colored furniture in the North
- Yellow furniture in the West
- Red furniture in the East
- Green furniture in the South

What does this do? For example, the yellow furniture increases the amount of money you receive. The other colors have similar benefits, so be sure to follow this basic rule when constructing your house.

Reset Follies
Don't ever hit the reset switch when playing this game. If you do, the next time you play you will be chastized by Mr. Reset, an angry mole. He will lecture you on how there is no reset button in real life -- so you shouldn't use it in this game either. Mr. Reset's rant takes quite a while to get through, but that's nothing compared to what happens when you hit reset again... His complaints will get longer and longer and he will even force you to apologize (which requires you to manually enter your apology via the letter entry wheels). Not fun. So stay away from the reset switch unless you understand Japanese and want to read some funny stuff.
