The moment was so wholesome that it went viral. If you\u2019ve played Animal Crossing since the beginning, then you\u2019ll know that not every villager is in every game \u2013 which is a blow for those with favorites from the GameCube title. Luckily though, New Horizons seems to have brought a bunch of oldies back, giving players who went without their best friend for years a chance to reunite with them again. Many use Nook Miles Tickets to fly to random islands at a chance of finding a particular character, who they can then convince to move into their town. This exact scenario happened to Twitch streamer FireDragon, who had spent countless of them in attempt to secure his favorite from the 2002 title \u2013 and he had the best reaction when it finally paid off. Streamer finds favorite Animal Crossing villager On April 30, the speedrunner embarked on a long journey in order to find Bill, a jock duck character. He spent a whopping 80 Nook Tickets in the hopes of finding him, discarding many other unwanted villagers along the way. To put it into perspective, one NMT costs 2,000 Miles \u2013 meaning 80 of them amount to a massive 160,000. After discovering the 80th island, FireDragon said \u201cLet\u2019s go, dude!\u201d confidently before running forward to see who he\u2019d gotten this time. It\u2019s easy to see how eager he was to secure the bird, as he wore a yellow bill and a hat modeled after its face. Upon spotting his favorite across the river, the streamer yelled out in surprise and began jumping up and down in his seat. \u201cYo! We did it! Yo, Bill! BILL!\u201d he exclaimed, before showing his wife. \u201cI got Bill! Yes, Bill! My favorite GameCube villager! I\u2019m 10 years old again!\u201d WE DID IT!!!!!!!
