** A) Introduction **
*********************

Doubutsu no Mori(or DnM) is a game made by Nintendo for the N64 and it was
released on April 14, 2001.

DnM is similar to Animal Crossing(AC). If you're not familiar with AC: In this
game you talk with animals, make chores, write letters, collect bugs, etc.

If you want to get this game please take in mind that DnM uses the Japanese
language a lot.

The game might come with a Controller Pak. With this, you can save letters and
visit a friend's town.

********************
** B) Starting... **

Controls:
Analog Stick- Move
C Buttons- Change view
A- Accept
B- Cancel and pick up weeds

R- Map

After you press start, you meet Totakeke and asks you if you want to change the
time. Then one of your villagers(one that you already met) appears and asks you
if you're ready.

--Villager's Menu:--

1) I'm ready to go
-Who are you?
2) Before I go...
2a) Sound Settings
2aa) Sound?
---I. Stereo
---II. Mono
---III. Headphones
2ab) Animal speak?
---I. Animalese
---II. Bebese
---III. Silence
2ac) Happy?
---I. That's fine!
---II. Um, hang on!
2b) Other Things
2ba) Demolish a house
-Whose?
2bb) Build a new town
-Are you sure?
---I. Maybe not...
---II. Yes
2bc) Set Time
2bd) Never mind
2c) Never mind

When you are moving into a village, you will meet Mishiranuneko(Rover in AC)in
the train. You have to type your character's name and your town's name(you only
have 6 spaces!).

Then you meet Tanuki. He will give you a house, but since you don't have enough
money you need to do some jobs for him.

--Tanuki's jobs:--

1) Plant flowers around the shop.
2) Meet your town's villagers.
3) Deliver furniture.
4) Write a letter.
5) Deliver carpet.
6) Deliver an axe.
7) Advertise on the Keijiban(or Bullleting Board)

Once you finish with these jobs, you're free! Well, sorta...since you still have
to pay off your debt.

** N) Misc. Info and Differences **
***********************************

-----------------
Writing a message
-----------------
The typing system of DnM is different than the one of AC.

Controls:
Control Stick- Point a symbol
A- Select
B- Delete
Z- Change the group of symbols
R- Modify a symbol

Groups:
1st- Hiragana (Main japanese alphabet)
2nd- Kigou (Symbols)
3rd- Katakana (Japanese alphabet used to write foreign words and names)
4th- Eigo (English language)
5th- Suuji (Numbers)

Instead of a keyboard, a dial that contains the symbols(letters, numbers or
punctuation marks...depending of the group that you selected) appears on the
screen. Using the control stick, point the symbol that you want to use(move the
control stick down to see more symbols), then press A and the symbol will appear
in your message.

If you're using the Hiragana or the Katakana group, the characters a, ka, sa,
ta, na, ha, ma, ya and wa are diplayed in the dial. If you point one of these
and press A, a red dial appears and shows more characters.

---------
Nintendo!
---------
In DnM, before the title screen shows up, the N64 logo appears with the same
sound that plays when you drop a furniture in your house and with a voice of a
random animal saying "Nintendo!".

----------------
Joni- (Gulliver)
----------------
In AC, DnM+ and DnMe+, when you "save" him you will receive a Special furniture
piece.
In DnM, he just gives you a random furniture.

-------------------------
Dressers, Wardrobes, etc.
-------------------------
In DnM, you can only put ONE item in these furniture!

-------
Stereos
-------
You can only store one aircheck in a stereo.

--------
..Sama?
--------
In Japan, there are different ways to refer to someone. In DnM, your Haniwa
(Gyroid) refers to you as -sama (master). Some characters like Tanuki and
Omawarisan A will refer to you as -san (it's like Mr.). And some of your
villagers will refer to you as -kun, -chan or -san.

Some characters have these words in their name, like Risetto san(Mr. Reset).

-------
Famicon
-------
In the catalog, all of the NES games appear with the name "Famicon".

----
Kasa
----
In AC, there's a section in the catalog called "Handhelds" where you can
find all of the umbrellas, pinwheels, fans, balloons and tools.
In DnM, this section is called "Kasa" (translates to "Umbrella") and here
you can only find umbrellas. So that means that pinwheels, fans and balloons
are not available in this game...and that you can't order tools.

---------------
Fishing Tourney
---------------
In DnM, a bass is measured in centimeters (cm).

--------
Jumpfish
--------
When you release a fish, it hops until it gets to the water!

---------
Feng Shui Updated! 1.8
---------
-Put orange furniture in the north of your house.
-Put green furniture in the south of your house.
-Put red furniture in the east of your house.
-Put yellow furniture in the west of your house.
If you arrange your furniture like this, you might get some extra luck
with money!
