I bought a big pipe organ for my Animal Crossing home a few days ago because it looked neat, but otherwise I didn’t think much of it. I put it with all my similar-looking “exotic” (aka classical Chinese) furniture in my home’s posh basement and promptly forgot about it until this afternoon when I wondered to myself, “Does this thing play music?” I pressed a button and it played a single note. Another button press, and it played a different note. So I kept playing, and the resulting melody sounded familiar.
Admittedly, it sounds a little odd playing through a cathedral organ, but it’s nice to have the ability to listen to Totaka’s Song any ol’ time I want.
Now I’m gonna be wondering if any other instruments do that.
Off-topic, but after seeing stuff about customizing the town, sticking custom textures on furniture, customizing the exteriors of houses, and being able to visit random towns in dreams, I am so ready to play Animal Crossing: New Leaf. It looks like it shakes up the standard formula just enough to make things interesting again.
Yeah, this game is awesome.
