+-- (_/ APP'N'S QUESTIONS ------------------------------------- 01.01 --+
Upon selecting the "New Game" option you will find yourself driving in a car
with Kapp'n on a rainy day. He will start by asking you a few questions, and
these questions will determine different things about your character and your
town. We'll go through the questions one by one to see what they do.
The first question asks what date and time it is. The date and time you have
already set on your Nintendo DS will be the default. You can change the date
and time here if you tell Kapp'n that they are wrong. The date determines the
weather in your Animal Crossing town. For example it's January 4th, 2006
right now so when I play the game there's quite a bit of snow all around. If
you were to enter July 4th, 2006 then it would be right in the middle of
summer. Time obviously determines the time of day in your town. At noon the
sun is high and shinning, however at midnight everything is fairly dark and
most people are asleep. If you tend to be a person who plays mostly at night
then you might want to skew your clock back a few hours to get more daylight.
The second question Kapp'n asks (actually it's not really a question) is:
"Jumpin' jellyfishes... I've had about enough of this here rain!" This is the
first of three questions which will determine what your Animal Crossing: Wild
World character will look like. There will be a more detailed explanation
below so you might want to reference that now before you proceed further.
When Kapp'n asks you your name, you will be prompted to enter it. Use the
Stylus to input whatever name you would like for your character here. You can
change between normal characters, foreign characters and symbols at the top
beside the "L Copy" button. This will be the permanent name for your
character so make sure you like it. Hit the confirm button when done.
The next question asks how you like the name, and is the first step toward
determining your character's gender. If you select "That's not it" then you
can re-enter a new name in case you made a mistake. If you tell him you think
the name is cute, he'll think you are a girl. If you tell him it's burly then
he'll think you are male. After this question you will have the opportunity
to select "I'm not a boy/girl!" if you chose the wrong one, don't worry.
When Kapp'n asks where you're going, you'll have the chance to enter the name
of your town. Once again this is a permanent thing so choose a name that you
really like for your town. After putting in the name of your town, Kapp'n
will ask you to confirm the name just in case you made any mistakes.
The next question and the one two after it, are the final two questions which
will determine what your character looks like. Scroll down a little bit to
the Character Faces section to get a better idea of what you'll look like.
Lastly we have the question Kapp'n asks about why you decided to move to the
town that you did. This will determine the placement of your house on the map
depending on how you answer it. If you select the beach, your house will be
near the beach. If you select the shopping then your house will be near the
stores. If you select the museum then your house will be near the museum,
it's pretty simple stuff. Personally I like to try and keep my house away
from most of the major places like the shops so it gives you a chance to move
about town more often, but that's just me. Choose whichever you like.

+-- (______) HARACTER FACES ---------------------------------------- 01.02 --+
Three of the initial questions that Kapp'n asks you during the taxi ride help
determine what the face of your character looks like. With a little
preparation you can get him (or her) to look exactly the way you want.
