Oh, that's excellent!
Come to think of it, I have seen you tinkering around a bit over there. Keep up the good work then! In this case I wish to share more of my DIY recipes with you, yes, yes!
Would you mind turning on your phone?
I just sent you a number of DIY recipes that require wood... along with the recipe to craft an axe!
Yes, yes, that broadens your crafting repertoire quite a bit, don't you agree?
I think an axe would come in quite useful on this island...
Because so many other things are made of wood, hm?
I do hope that you'll keep bringing me new discoveries to examine. For the sake of this island AND for science! Yes, yes!
By the way, I have a proper reward for you this time.
I've given you a red-windflower bag - just a little sampling of a product we sell.
Go ahead and do some planting, and after a few days, you'll have beautiful blooming flowers! Just try and see for yourself, hm? And if you enjoy gardening, you can always stop buy and buy more!
Well, you've found another [fish/insect], I see!
I am still in possession of the last one you found, so I'll give this one back to you.
Please feel free to keep it... or sell it!
And if you do find something new, do please share it with me, yes?
Oho! Remember the flower samples I gave you?
There is something I forgot to mention!
The flowers that grow will be very strong. They'll spring up even if you just plant and forget about them...
Ah, but if you water them each day... that's where the true magic happens!
Watering opens up the possibility of propagating and crossbreeding your flowers to develop rare colors!
And how might you water them, you ask?
Well now, I've just sent you the DIY recipe for a watering can!
My accountants would shake their heads, if they knew that I was giving this sort of thing away for free...
But you've collected so many creatures for me, [name], so this is just part of island give-and-take, hm?
> DIY?
Yes, yes! DIY enables you to craft your own items - like tools or furniture!
Back in the day, Nook Inc. would never have given away something like this for free, but the world keeps turning, hm?
> Another time...
Of course, of course. Come see me once you're ready, hm?
Test, test, one, two, three...
HELLO, EVERY-
Oh dear. So, so sorry about that!
Phew, that was loud...
Hello, everyone!
Starting today, I'll be doing an island-wide broadcast full of island updates, going-ons, and such, hm?
I'll go over some things that are very important to island life, so lend me your ears for a short time, yes, yes!
Now... it's only fitting that we kick off this daily ritual with a doozy of an island announcement...
The [island name] airport is now open for business!
Starting today, you can use online or local communication to fly to other islands for a visit.
That's not all. No, no! The airport counter now offers postal services!
And just like the Resident Services center, the airport is open 24 hours a day.
So please do drop by for a look!
That's all from me. I do hope you all enjoy another fine day of luxurious [island name] living. Yes, indeed!
Hello, everyone! This is Tom Nook!
It's [time and date].
Now for today's news...
As of this very day, a brilliant fellow by the name of Blathers will be joining us on [island name]!
Blathers has a keen interest in biology - past and present - and he's here to study [island name].
I sincerely hope everyone lends their cooperation, hm? Inquisitive residents should stop by his tent for details!
And that's it! With that I wish everyone a fantastic day on [island name], yes, yes!
Some stunning news just in! We're moving forward with construction of the [island name] Museum!
Neither Blathers nor I imagined we'd be getting ready to build a museum on his very first day on the island!
We're truly grateful for everyone's cooperation.
Anyhoo, we've started construction for the museum at the very spot where Blathers had his tent!
"So sorry to inconvenience you all like this today. 'Tis a shame to suspend your scientific endeavors. However, I hope having our splendid new museum completed by tomorrow will make up for this little setback!"
That... was a little message Blathers asked me to pass on to all of you.
...So you see, since the number of homeowners is increasing, I do agree with you that we need to build a shop.
Nonetheless, when it comes to building supplies, our customers' homes should take priority...
Yet still, I have every confidence that you'll find a way to handle this little puzzle.
After all the two of you have been training under me for how many years now, hm?
This should be a piece of cake!
Well, hello there, [name]!
Are you happy with your home?
Is it meeting your expectations?
I bet you'll be a lot more comfortable now!
Houses are so different from tents, hm?
You can freely change up the flooring and wallpaper...
And you've got some built-in storage so you can put away any furniture you aren't using.
Oh yes! There's more...
All homeowners are automatically registered with the Happy Home Academy.
The HHA, as we call it, will evaluate your home on a regular basis and send you helpful advice.
They even send rewards to members whose homes achieve high ratings!
Their evaluations won't intrude on your day-to-day life, so there's no need to worry.
Just enjoy the fun!
Which brings us to...
your new home loan! That'll be 98,000 Bells, please!
> Can I pay in miles?
Oh, I'm sorry.
That was a special offer that only applied to your initial getaway-package fees.
Loan payments will have to be made in Bells.
Ah, but do not worry. You can pay in installments, big or small.
Payments can be made using the ABD feature of the Nook Stop.
I think that's everything I need to tell you about homes today.
But I do have a nice surprise for you!
I do hope you're ready for this...
it's a premium miles-redemption item: a Nook Miles Ticket!
> A Nook Miles Ticket?
A Nook Miles Ticket is a special travel voucher you can only get by redeeming Nook Miles.
It's a conundrum, hm?
We want to improve our island, but still hold on to that deserted-island magic...
Well, well, now you can do both!
You can use one of these tickets to do some island-hopping adventuring, yes, yes!
Go any time you want!
Maybe you're looking to meet some new characters or gather materials for DIY projects.
Your trip is yours to enjoy in the way you like.
I've left your ticket at the counter in the airport, so use it whenever the travel mood strikes.
Now then, go enjoy life in your freshly built home! Indeed!
Ah, this is good timing, actually.
I've been meaning to talk to you about Timmy's shop.
Or rather... I've been meaning to point you in Timmy's direction.
He should have the details for you, hm?
Timmy:
(asking for your help with building the store)
I've already spoken with our fearless leader, of course.
He always wishes to expand anyway, you know.
Oh, many thanks that you're lending us a helping hand with the collection of materials for the store!
​
Orville:
Oh, it's you!
Good timing!
I just got a Nook Miles Ticket from Tom Nook with "[name]" written on it, which makes it yours.
So if you want to use this ticket, you just gotta say the magic words "I wanna fly!"
Got it?
Roger!
In that case, I'll just take this ticket I got from Tom Nook.
Blathers:
I plan to exhibit these creatures, as well as those you gave to Tom Nook, in the museum upon its completion.
Ah, did you think about a house maybe?
You would have more space and you could decorate your walls and floor and...
Oh, forgive me! I do not wish to impose on you, no, no...
Thank you for your business!
I'll get construction started right away.
By the way, you get to choose from eight different colors for the roof!
Could you please select a roof color from this list, hm?
[Red, Pink, Yellow, Black]
Alright, there are four more colors!
Just select one of them or a color from the ones I showed you previously, yes?
[Blue, Light Blue, Green, Purple]
Interested in one of the other colors? Take your time, it's a big decision to make!
OK! Your roof will be [color]!
I'll get that order in for you. Yes, yes!
Oh! One more thing...
Homeowners get an automatic Nook Mileage Program upgrade.
Just give me one moment, hm...
Yes, yes, there we go!
I've updated your program membership details, [name].
Now when you use the Nook Miles app, you'll have access to all the Nook Miles+ benefits.
Nook Miles+ includes a nifty way to earn additional miles for fulfilling certain daily challenges.
You'll see the details once you launch the app, so please give it a look when you can, hm?
That's all from me for now! Your wonderful home should be ready tomorrow.
Quite exciting, yes?
Hm... As long as you've got a loan, I unfortunately cannot accept any new expansion requests.
Please do keep in mind that you can use the Nook Stop at any time to make payments.
Once your loan is paid in full, please come talk to me again, hm?
Well, your lovely future home is already under construction, so...
Perhaps it's time to start thinking about furnishing then, hm?
May I humbly suggest checking out Nook Shopping at the Nook Stop?
Yes, construction should be completed by tomorrow. I'm so happy for you, [name]!
Ta-da!
Today, [island name] has its very own museum!
Oh yes! It's a grand museum indeed, with separate exhibit rooms for insects, fish, or fossils.
Blathers, the museum curator, says he's always available to accept donations or assess fossils.
And museum admission is free, so stop by whenever you like!
By the way, whenever we cover big island developments like this...
we'll hold a special commemorative ceremony afterward!
We'd like as many folks as possible to take part, so do visit the Resident Services if you're interested, hm?
Oh, you want to take part in the ceremony, [name]?
Right now, we'd like to celebrate the grand opening of our museum.
Would you be interested?
> I sure am!
Splendid!
Then let's get started!
Now then...
Welcome to our dedication ceremony honoring [island name]'s brand-new museum!
Thank you! Thanks much!
[island name] truly started out as nothing but a desolate, deserted island.
There simply wasn't much here. But now...
It's slowly beginning to develop, thanks to the tireless efforts of... well, everyone, really.
And now I think we need to hear a... FEW words from Blathers, who'll be running our new museum!
Blathers, the floor is yours.
...
Thank you... for that rousing speech, Blathers!
Now, let's have a few words from someone whose contributions enabled us to build the museum in the first place.
Of course, I'm talking about none other than our Resident Representative, [name], her/himself!
Anything you want to add, [name]?
> Good for us!
> We're amazing!
> Wooooo!
Yes, yes! Indeed! Thank you for your heartfelt and encouraging sentiments there, [name]!
Everyone... Please get ready to join me in bringing this ceremony to a close.
Also, those wishing to take a commemorative photo should get ready to press [screenshot button]!
Yes... Well then...
With hope for our continued growth and to celebrate [island name]'s beautiful museum...
HURRAY!
Thank you all!
This concludes our ceremony!
Please do take care on your way home!
Villagers:
> [Yo, wallflower!]
I've heard the raccoons have roped you in for helping them with their shop opening.
> Hey, [name]! Congratulations on your new house!
Tom Nook really outdid himself for you!
> Ah, so I call this Tom Nook, and he will explain everything to me?
Thanks! Then I'll do that!
Good, good!
You can always come to me!
I truly must thank you for collecting all of the materials for the shop!
Perhaps you can give me more advice for the island life than I can give you, oho ho!
As always, I must offer my hearty congratulations. You've paid off your loan in full!
I expected nothing less, of course, but occasions like these are cause for celebration, hm?
I suppose they're also a good time to take stock and reflect. Yes, yes!
I'm sure your home is quite comfy in its current configuration. But what if it could be bigger?
Oho! I assure you that it can, indeed, be bigger.
A bigger home means more space for furniture - and more storage too!
But now that I've introduced some possibilities, I will leave it at that.
Do please come see me if you'd like to hear more, hm?
Hm... I would recommend that you make your room larger.
That would require taking out a loan for 198,000 Bells.
Does that pique your interest?
> Not now...
Yes, yes! This purchase should be well thought-out.
Just come see me once you've made up your mind, hm?
> Let's do it!
Wonderful! I'm so happy for you!
I'm going to make sure construction begins right away.
Oh! It occurs to me... this might be a good time to consider a new color for your roof. Don't you agree? There are eight color options.
Could you please select a roof color from this list, hm?
OK! Your roof will be [color]!
Construction on your home should be finished by tomorrow.
I'll bet you're even more excited than I am!
Construction is going well, yes, yes!
Your joy is contagious!
​
My staff, Timmy and Tommy, opened up their new shop today!
It's a small shop, but they'll change stock daily and carry a selection of goods that's sure to improve your island life!
Come by from 8 AM to 10 PM daily. And if the store is closed, simply use their drop-off box to sell your items!
Ah! One more thing...
To celebrate the opening of the shop, we've added a new catalog service to Nook Shopping.
The catalog lets customers see a record of all items they've obtained or purchased.
Any mass-marketed items can be ordered directly through the catalog, so make good use of it!
Now then, with all that said... I hope everyone takes advantage of the new Nook's Cranny!
By the way - as usual, there will be a special commemorative ceremony for this!
We'd like as many folks as possible to take part, so do visit the Resident Services if you're interested, hm?
phone call:
Oh dear. Never fails. Of course this would happen right in the middle of a broadcast...
A... haaaa... One moment, please, hm?
'Hello? This is Tom Nook from Nook Inc., yes!
What? The getaway package?
Why, yes! Yes, yes!
Of course!'
And that's all for today's island-wide broadcast.
'Ah, so sorry to put you on hold.
Allow me to give you a full overview of the...
Oh, greetings, [name]!
Your home is much roomier now, isn't it?
More space is never a bad thing.
Which brings us to...
the cost of your remodel! That'll be 198,000 Bells, hm?
Ah, yes! Please make your payments using the Nook Stop's ABD feature as you've done before.
As always, it's been ever so nice doing business with you. Yes, yes!
Timmy und Tommy:
Our shop is named in honor of a shop our beloved President Nook used to run.
Welcome to Nook's Cranny!
Ah, [name]. Good to see you!
Hold the phone - someone's calling!
Hello, you've reached Nook Inc.
Oh! You saw our ad... I see... Hm...
Yes, of course!
Don't worry about a thing! We can set up your getaway package to include a lovely furnished home.
Mmm-hmm... Oh, not at all! We'll set up your move-in date at a later time...
No, no. No trouble at all. I just need to draw up the proper contracts... that may take a little while... Would that be...
...Yes? Understood! That's very kind of you, thanks much!
We will get back to you very soon! Thank you!
[name]! So sorry to keep you waiting.
I... suppose you overheard that call I just got, hm?
For some time now I've been advertising the [island name] getaway package...
And wouldn't you know, out of the blue we have 3 interested parties!
> That's great!
Yes, yes, it's quite wonderful! Thank you, thank you!
Although... there is one minor little detail that robs me of my well-earned sleep...
None of our applicants are too fond of the notion of sleeping in tents, you see.
I'm afraid I got caught up in the excitement of persuading them to move here, and due to my heartfelt concern, I may have... promised them fully furnished homes!
Three homes, setting aside the land, preparing all the furnishings...
it's just too much for one raccoon.
But see, [name]...
You visiting me today, cannot be a coincidence!
Here you are, in my hour of need...
It most certainly must be fate!
I almost do not dare to ask, but... Would you? Perhaps? Help me get these homes prepared? All three of them?
Of course, I will return the favor! And help you!
Say, will you help me build those three, little homes, hm?
> Of course!
Thank you! Thankyouthankyouthankyou!
I'll NEVER forget this!
Oh! Before we start, you're going to need some top-secret instructions!
When you're ready, come talk to me.
Use the phrase "What should I do?"
Agent Nook out... Oh, this is fun! I feel like we're in one of these agent movies!
Ah! You want to take part in the ceremony, [name]?
Right now, we'd like to celebrate the completion of Nook's Cranny.
Would you be interested?
> I sure am!
Splendid!
Then let's get started!
Now then...
Welcome to our dedication ceremony honoring [island name]'s brand-new Nook's Cranny!
Thank you! Thanks much!
[Island name] truly started out as nothing but a desolate, deserted island. There simply wasn't much here. But now...
It's slowly beginning to develop, thanks to the tireless efforts of... well, everyone, really.
I'd like to ask Timmy and Tommy to say a few words as representatives of the new Nook's Cranny.
Timmy? Tommy? If you would, please.
Timmy:
Thank you, [island name]!
Because of you, we've opened a proper shop!
Tommy:
My brother and I will work hard to make it the best shop.
And I hope we can count on your business!
Yes, yes, thank you both!
Now then... a few words from someone who made many valuable contributions toward seeing Nook's Cranny built.
Of course I mean [name], our Resident Representative!
Anything to add?
Oho! So you're already ready to help me prepare!
Here's what I'm thinking...
We really should start by building a bridge across the river somewhere.
With three homes to build, I worry that we'll run out of space on land that is easily accessible otherwise.
A bridge will open things up a bit and make it easier to get to housing plots during construction, hm?
And it also offers some all-new design options!
So... seeing how much of a craftsman/woman you are, that's why I'd like you to start by crafting the parts for a bridge base.
In return, you can decide on a prime location for our marvellous new transport solution!
And done! I've just sent you a recipe for a bridge construction kit. You can find it on your NookPhone.
Once you've assembled your bridge construction kit, find a neat little place for our bridge and then check in with me, yes?
If you find yourself in any trouble or if you need some further advice, simply come here and I'll guide you!
Good luck, [name]!
I'm eternally grateful for your help with the bridge and I trust that I speak for the entire island when I say: Thank you!
To start, you should first use the DIY recipe I gave you to craft a bridge construction kit.
Once this is ready, just carry it to whatever spot you'd like the bridge to be in, and - plop! - the space is marked!
I know that makes it sound very simple, but in practice it can be a bit tricky...
So just tell me, if you run into any issues, hm?
Good luck, [name]!
Go seek the perfect spot for the bridge and once you're there, just use your practical bridge construction kit, hm?
Ah, but speaking of which - May I offer you some tips for building bridges?
Yes please!
My pleasure!
Let's start with the fundamentals of building bridges!
First off, your bridge construction kit will require just as much space as your tent.
But, of course, it will also need to be placed close to the river it's supposed to...well uhm... bridge!
The river mustn't be too narrow or too wide in that spot and also not too curved, hm?
But now, now - don't you worry! With a bit of practice you will soon be a bridge-building master!
Just look for a nice spot that will make everyone's daily routes easier.
You can do it, I know it!
Learning by doing, yes, yes!
Ah, [name]! Hello, hello!
Sooooo... If I may ask, did you find a good place to deploy your bridge construction kit?
> It's ready to go! [> I set it up!]
Splendid! Delightful!
Thanks much, yes, yes!
Then tomorrow we'll have a new bridge up and it'll be even easier to get around the island.
Now then since that's out of the way... we can shift our focus to the next project...
Meaning: Building new homes!
Just ask me "What should I do?", hm?
Now, or we can wait for bridge construction to finish if you want and proceed afterward.
[name], if this is about the bridge construction, I'm afraid it won't be ready until tomorrow...
Oh! Or did you want to start on the homes now?
Please take these 3 housing kits off my paws, hm?
With the housing kits I just gave you, you'll pick out plots for 3 homes.
Then, of course, these homes need to be made... homely. We do need furniture and such.
Each housing kit comes with a list of the furniture required for its house, so don't lose it, yes?
You can build everything DIY style, so let me just send you the recipes you'll need!
And that's all from me! Thanks again for all of your help!
Did you already mark 3 plots using the housing kits?
As soon as you've placed one of them, make sure to check the list for the items it requires, hm?
The box next to the marked house location will tell you, which furniture pieces are needed for the respective house.
There are no news for today, so allow me to give you a helpful little tip about the life on [island name] instead, hm?
I will now tell you something about the rewards you can earn via the Nook Miles program. So let me proudly present a very handy feature to you: "Tool Ring: It's Essential!".
How are you holding up on this island? Do you have to carry lots and lots of clunky tools around with you?
I can imagine that it must be getting pretty tiresome to always go back and forth between all of them...
The Tool Ring allows you to register 8 tools that you can easily switch between!
I can only recommend it to you, if you wish to always have the right tool at hand in just a heartbeat!
And that was that! Take care, hm?
...My NookPhone is ringing.
Hello? That you, [name]?
Yes, yes, this is Tom Nook!
How goes your search for housing land?
> It's going great.
Stupendous! I'm relieved to hear that everything is going according to plan!
Be sure to check the box in front of the plot for each home, hm?
It'll show the items required for that plot.
Interior items should be placed in the box, while exterior items should be placed outside around the plot.
After all, we want to make it look nice and decorative!
Once you've set up the plots for all 3 homes and placed the required items, come report back to me!
I'll be waiting in Resident Services.
Thanks again for your enthusiasm, yes, yes!
​
Er, [name]? It's me again.
So sorry for the repeated calls, but there is something important that I've forgotten to tell you!
You see, you'll need to get a wreath made from flowers...
There are plenty of pretty flowers growing up on the cliffs of the island, so tootle up there if you need to!
Oh, and small insider tip?
I've sent you a recipe for a ladder. It's the ideal tool for when you need to scale those cliffs! Not like you can just go ahead and walk up there, no, no!
Anyhoo, keep up the good work, hm?
So, how goes it?
Progressing nicely with the plots and the homes and the furnishings and whatnot?
> It's all going smoothly!
Oho, wonderful!
That's music to my ears!
As you finish your part, I'll get started on home construction and welcoming our new residents, of course!
I stake my name and reputation to get this done quickly and to get it done right!
Why, if all goes well, we could have someone in a new home as soon as TOMORROW, yes, yes!
By the way, I plan on letting the island know about folks moving in or out during my island broadcasts.
Oh, and once I know who will move into a certain home, I'll post the info on the sign for that plot.
So too long, didn't read: You might wish to read my signs at least, hm?
Anyhoo, keep up the good work and stay as diligent as you are!
