Cheats & Guides

Animal Crossing: Wild World Cheats For DS

  1. 4-Leaf Clover

    If you town becomes covered in weeds there will also be clvoer patches. If you are lucky, you will pull up a four leaf clover. This is pretty rare however, most patches you dig up will not contain the clover. The clover can then be used as an accessory in you character's hair, or if you place it in your house it will act as a bookmark in a book.

  2. How to get the scallop

    The scallop is used to get the golden axe from Pascal. Pascal walks around by the beach at a random time, once a week. First, you need to buy a red turnip from Joan. Next, give it to Wendel the next time he comes to town. Wendel should give you the Turban or Country Guitar. If you get the Turban, take it to Sahara when she comes to town. Sahara should give you either the Massage Chair or Red Vase. If you get the Massage Chair, let Tortimer have it the next holiday and he should give you the scallop. Then just wait for Pascal to sho wup and give him the scallop.

    But if you got the Country Guitar, give it to K.K. Slider to get K.K.'s Pic
    And if you got the Red Vase, give it to Crazy Redd in exchange for the Safe. Give the safe to Tom Nook for the Tom Nook Pic.

  4. Hold 10 extra items

    This is a really easy trick. Just buy 10 letters, leave them blank, than pull an item onto it so that it becomes a present. Tada, 10 extra slots.

  5. Become friends with Sable

    Whenever you enter the Able Sisters store and try to talk to Sable (the hedgehog sitting behind the sewing machine in the back left corner), she usually just ignores you, or tries to tell you talk to her sister because she's busy. To develop a "friendship" with Sable, you must talk to her at least once every day for a number of days. Eventually, she will start having conversations with you, and even thank you for stopping by.

  6. Become friends with Brewster

    Once a day you can buy coffee at the cafe'. At first he just gives you coffe and says "Thanks...". But If you buy some from him coffee every day he will start asking you questions, treating you like a friend, asking you if he can put special ingrediants in your coffee, and thanking you for coming by.

  7. Store more items

    Speak to Pelly in the town hall (or Phyllis, if it's at night) and choose "Save a Letter". You can save up to 75 letters, and you can attach gifts/items to these letters so you can keep 75 items in the post office, plus the 90 items in the dressers, and you can do this with all 4 characters, for maximum item storage.

  8. Grow Golden Roses

  9. Turnips that never spoil.

    First get a table and place it in your house. Now take any item preferred item is fishing pole or shovel and set it down in front of the table, now stand directly on that item and try to place your turnips on the ground. Instead of the turnips falling on the ground they go onto the table. This prevents any spoiling as opposed to setting them on the ground.

  10. Instantly Cure Sick Villagers

    When one of your villagers is sick, you'll have to give him/her some Medicine every day for about a week to cure him/her, but an easier way to cure him/her is to get on WiFi or multiplayer, then the villager will be immediately cured when someone visits your town.

  11. First Roof Color

    Your first house's roof color can be customized, believe it or not. Simply change your DS's menu color from the DS setup screen and your house will have that same roof color. NOTE: this only works with the color you have set when you first move into a house.

  12. Getting furniture from your neighbors houses

    If an animal in your town has furniture in his or her house that you want, send them seashells, unwanted furniture, or fossils to them in the mail. They'll usually put these gifts in their house, displacing whatever was there before. Check the recycle bin at your Town Hall and the item you wanted from their house may be in there.

  13. Retro Animal Crossing Bootleg

    To get the Retro Animal Crossing note to listen to at your house, tell K.K. Slider this request.

    Forest Life

    This song is the full version of the gamecube AC. If you don't have the game, but you do have AC for the Gamecube, and are just surfing the site, Then to hear "Forest Life" on the Gamecube, just turn the game on and open the disc cover as soon as you see the train monkey.

  14. Free Fishing Rod from Tortimer

    If you go up and talk to Tortimer at the Fishing Tourney and you don't have a fishing rod with you, he should give you his. It's just a normal fishing rod, but hey, it's free.

  15. Make animals stay in their houses

    To make animals stay in their houses, simply go to the gate, and ask Copper to open the gates for DS to DS visitors. After the gates are open, your animals will stay in their houses. This makes deliverys VERY easy if you are having trouble finding certain animals, or if you are trying to look at a certain animal's house and they don't stay inside much.

  16. Find out tomorrows weather

    If you have a TV, make sure you pay attention when the weather show is on. It'll tell you, in pictures, how the weather will be the next day. It'll either show a picture with the sun for a clear day, or clouds with snowflakes for snow, or rain etc. This is important if you want to catch a Coelacanth.

  17. Free bug net

  19. Get a Tan

    To change your skin tone, stay outside during summer, when it's most warm. After a few minutes of spending time outdoors, find any building to enter. You will notice your skin will have what only this season can give you. After a week or so, the tan will disappear unless you have been outside lately. Unlike the Gamecube version, this tan can range from being to very light to being seriously dark

  20. Cause all the mail to be sent

    Normally, the mail will only come at 9am and 5pm daily. However, there is a way to make the mail come whenever you want. When you order an item from the catalog, or when you or one of your villagers sends a letter, it becomes "pending to be sent" at the post office. However, the post office can only hold ten letters as "pending" at a time. If more than ten letter are sent, all the mail will come. So, in order to cause the mail to come whenever you want, simply send letters to one of your villagers or another character in your house until there are more than ten total letters waiting to be sent. This is a great way to get items from the catalog whenever you want.

  21. Duplicate Items and Bells

    This glitch requires two 100 bell coins, a 1x1 box (a box that only occupies one space, something like the cardboard box you start the game with), and the item you want to clone, such as a golden tool or a bag of bells.

    Step 1: Go to a fairly empty space on the first floor of your house.
    Step 2: Drop a 100 bell coin on the floor.
    Step 3: This is a slightly tricky part-- drop the other 100 bell coin on the floor, then very quickly drop the box on the floor. If done right, the 100 bell coin will be on top of the box.
    Step 4: Drop the item you want to duplicate on the ground. If done correctly, it will be on the box.
    Step 5: Look at the box from a diagonal angle, then grab the item on top of it. Your item should still appear to be on the box.
    Step 6: Push or pull the box in any direction, and then grab the item on the box once again (it can be from any angle this time).

    Congratulations! You just duplicated an item! You might have to exit and enter your house if you want to duplicate the item again.

  22. How to change the background of your inventory.

    1) Grab a shirt or pattern.
    2) Drag it to the lower left corner.
    3) It'll be over an invisible space, drop it.

  23. Magic Rock

    Hit all the rocks in town with either a shovel or an axe until you find one that releases a money bag when you do. Continue to hit it as many times as you can until it finally stops releasing bags of money. With every hit you do, the rock will release more gold. This can be done once a day.
