But, see, this tarantula is a professional therapist! See?

I would legitimately kill myself before letting a tarantula that close to me.
 
I would hope to kill it before it came to that, but by the point it actually touches me I would just want to die.

this is amazing

Yeah, the N64 didn’t have an internal clock like the consoles after it, so they couldn’t do real-time days passing, and such.  
The fact it’s a remake, is also why the GameCube AC game had N64-quality graphics.
 
And yeah, in Japan, they had 2 versions of the GameCube game, one had E-Reader features, which is the one that was internationally released, as you stated.  
I also hear there were new furniture items, and NES games added to the GameCube version/s, that weren’t in the N64 version.

@Beau Skunky  
The Gamecube one is really what the Japan-only N64 version was meant to be but becouse the N64 lacked some things in hardware it was never fully realized, so it was ported to the Gamecube with the features all in and working, only some new items where added, unless you mean the version that worked with the GBA e-Reader, that was added for the release outside of Japan then an updated Japanese one was made to have that.

What I ment with that question was, do most players like to donate new bugs/fish they catch to the museums? ‘Cause that’s what I like to do in AC games.  
(Only museum I managed to finish though was the GameCube one. Darn fake paintings in all the games afterwords… Luckily in the 3DS one now we have a way to tell the fake paintings from the real ones.)

@Prof.NightJack  
Oh ok, and I already know about the museum thing, because I’ve owned every previous AC game to. (Except the Japan-only N64 version, of course, which I hear is pretty much the same as the GameCube one, only with not as many cool features/items.)
 
One thing I kinda miss about the first AC game/s was the inclusion of simplistic NES games, (like Balloon Fight, Tennis, Donkey Kong Jr., Excitebike, Wario’s Woods, ect.) because I liked the whole “game within a game” gag, and keeping little NES consoles in your house. (But I guess with Virtual Console, it’d be a bit redundant/pointless.)  
Best thing about ’em was, they would actually save your high-scores. The colors also seemed brighter then the VC versions.

Spiders should feel sorry for him.

“Even the spiders feel bad for him.”

Merged forward, higher res.

Nice glasses there.

@Beau Skunky  
Owls do eat insects, and donating new bugs/fish is in all AC games.

I like how the tarantula is comforting him.
 
Though, owls being “birds of prey” don’t normally eat bugs, do they?  
Then again, they don’t manage museums either.
 
Just outta curiosity is donating new bugs/fish you catch a universal thing, because I like to do that to in the AC games. Helps you keep better track of what you catch, and lets you look at them anytime you want.

;_; poor Blathers…

But only if you don’t kill spider bro.

His sister seemed OK with it….
