'''Tom Nook's Store''' is the economic centerpiece of every [[Player|player's]] [[town]]. The store is owned and operated by [[Tom Nook]], the most important non-playable character in the series.
+
'''Tom Nook's store''' (also known as '''Tom Nook's shop''' or simply the '''shop''') is a store in the {{SER}} owned by [[Tom Nook]]. It sells various items, such as [[furniture]], [[wallpaper]], [[flooring]], and [[tool]]s; Tom Nook also offers various services within the store, such as buying items from the player and giving access to the [[catalog]]. The store first appears in {{DnM}} and appears in all subsequent games up to and including {{CF}}.
−
In {{PG}} and {{WW}}, Tom Nook stocks items based in Groups (A, B or C). The player's town is designated a group, and items from that group are more likely to stock in the store. Items from other groups will stock as well, but less frequently. The only way to find out what group the player's town has been designated is for them to keep a tally of the number of items from each group. Item Groups do not exist in {{CF}}, items are available based on individual towns. When the shop is about to upgrade, a message will be posted on the News Bulletin telling that on the next day, the shop will be closed for remodeling.
+
Tom Nook's store starts as [[Nook's Cranny]] and has three upgrades—[[Nook 'n' Go]], [[Nookway]], and [[Nookington's]]—which are obtained if the player spends a specific amount of Bells at the store and meets other requirements. Beginning in {{NL|nolink}}, Tom Nook's store is replaced by [[Timmy and Tommy's store]], as [[Tom Nook]] works in [[Nook's Homes]] and [[Resident Services]] in {{NL|short|nolink}} and {{NH|short|nolink}}, respectively.

+
In {{PG}}, Tom Nook's store appears in one of the five A [[acres]]. Items sold include furniture, wallpapers, carpets, clothing, umbrellas, flower bags, saplings, tools, paint (Nookway onward), [[diary|diaries]] (Nookway onward), and {{I|Sign Board|Animal Crossing}}s (Nookway onward). If the player speaks to Tom Nook, he will allow them to sell items, access the catalog, check turnip prices, and hear or say [[secret code]]s.
−
The developer roundtable interview in December 2011 revealed that Tom Nook will not being running the town shop in Animal Crossing: Jump Out, instead he will act as the real estate agent and show model homes via Street Pass. A Japanese trailer released in June 2012 shows Tom Nook's nephew, Timmy, running a shop that looks very similar to Nook's Cranny.
+
The furniture, clothing, wallpapers, and carpets sold at Tom Nook's store each have an item [[group]] of either A, B, or C, with one group being common and one being rare. Which group is common or rare is randomized upon the creation of the town. Tom Nook will mail the player when there is an item from their rare item group in stock at the store.
−
==History==
−
=== ''Animal Crossing'' ===
−
'''Tom Nook's store''' made its first appearance outside of Japan in the Nintendo 64 Animal Crossing, as did many of the items sold at his store. The store was randomly located on the [[map]] of each town, but, like the [[Post Office]], could only be found in the 'A' [[acres]]. The store offered [[furniture]], clothing, [[tool]]s, flowers, tree saplings, [[carpet]], wallpaper, [[paint]], and sign boards in exchange for [[Bells]], the currency of the ''Animal Crossing'' world.
−
At the beginning of each game, the player will have a part-time job at Nook's Cranny, to help pay off their mortgage. This will involve making deliveries, writing letters, and meeting the residents of the town. While working for Nook, the work uniform is obtained. This outfit is rare in that it cannot be obtained from anywhere else, but it is worth nothing.
+
The store occasionally sells seasonal items in place some of its standard stock: the {{I|Festive Tree|Animal Crossing}} and {{I|Big Festive Tree|Animal Crossing}} are sold in place of two of the furniture items from December 1 to 24, and the {{I|Festive Candle|Animal Crossing}} and {{I|Festive Flag|Animal Crossing}} are sold from December 26 to 30. {{I|Candy|Animal Crossing}} is sold from October 16 to 30 in place of flower bags, and {{I|Grab Bag|Animal Crossing}}s are sold on [[Sale Day]] in place of all non-furniture or clothing items.
−
After finishing the tutorial part-time work, the player is able to sell various items to Tom Nook in exchange for Bells. In many respects, these transactions form the core of the game experience.
+
On the last day of each month, a [[lottery]] is held where the player can obtain unique items; no items can be bought or sold during a lottery. Additionally, Tom Nook occasionally holds [[One Day Sale]]s, where he gives the player a balloon and sells one random item in place of his usual stock. One Day Sales are announced on the [[bulletin board]] and last for one hour.
−
=== ''Animal Crossing: Wild World'' ===
+
====In {{DnMe+|nolink}}====
−
''Wild World'' also featured Nook's store randomly placed, but as the acre system was discarded for this title, the store may be located anywhere in the town. Furthermore, it will always be accompanied by Mable and Sable's [[Able Sisters|clothes shop]] directly to the east.
+
[[File:DnMe+NookAfterHours.png|thumb|right|250px|The player visiting Nookway after-hours in {{DnMe+|nolink}}]]
+
{{DnMe+}} adds the ability for the player to visit Tom Nook's store after-hours if they hit the entrance with an [[axe]] or [[shovel]] three times. This turns on the lights inside and opens the door, allowing the player to enter and purchase items. During this time, Tom Nook, Timmy, and Tommy wear pajamas, walk much slower than usual, increase item prices by 20%, and decrease the price they buy items at by 70%. Additionally, the [[catalog]] is inaccessible at this time.
−
Several minor changes were made for this title. The sign board item is no longer offered, though other tools have been added. Nook also does not sell clothing or umbrellas in this title, except via catalogue; one must purchase shirts and other accessories next door from the Able Sisters.
+
New to {{DnMe+|nolink}} are [[object]]s, which can be purchased from Tom Nook in the store. Additionally, the store sells [[Party Popper|cracker]]s from December 16 to 30, as well as Medicine year-round.
−
[[Shampoodle]] was also featured in Nook's shop in ''Wild World'', operated by Harriet as a hairdresser in the Nookington's upgrade. You have to spend 240,000 bells in order to get the shop with shampoodle in it. (1600 points) Also, you need a friend from another town to come over and become a member at Nook's 3rd shop before Tom Nook's shop is upgraded.

===In {{WW|short|nolink}}===

[[File:WW Nook's Cranny Tom Nook Point System.png|thumb|left|The player accessing the Tom Nook Point System in Nook's Cranny in {{WW|short|nolink}}]]
+
In {{WW}}, Tom Nook's store appears directly to the left of the [[Able Sisters]]. New to {{WW|short|nolink}} is the [[Tom Nook Point System]], where the player earns points for purchasing items and can receive unique items and discounts. The store sells furniture, wallpapers, carpets, tools, stationery, [[Message Bottle|Notes in Bottles]], flower bags, saplings (Nook 'n' Go onward), and paint (Nookington's only). All stages of the store are open from 8 AM to 11 PM.
−
=== ''Animal Crossing: City Folk'' ===
+
The rarity group system returns from {{PG|nolink}}, with the furniture, clothing, wallpapers, and carpets sold at Tom Nook's store each having an item group of either A, B, or C. New to {{WW|short|nolink}} are [[spotlight item]]s, rare items that can appear in place of a standard group item.
−
While the store is once again located randomly, it is no longer tied to the Able Sister's shop. Store hours for the Nook 'N' Go upgrade were changed, with the store now remaining open until 1am. Tom Nook's Point System was revised to include a gift exchange feature, so that points can be exchanged for rare items. The Shampoodle was moved from Nook's to the city in this title.
−
Interestingly, this title also features the thus-far unique ability to have Nook downgrade his store. Thirty days after the player obtains Nookington's, as they are exiting the store, Nook will ask if the player favors good hours, a balance, or variety. The player's response will cause him to downgrade to Nook 'n' Go, downgrade to Nookway, or keep Nookington's, respectively. Any change, if requested, will happen a week later. If the store is changed, Tom Nook will ask his survey again, eventually.
+
The store occasionally sells seasonal items in place some of its standard stock: the Festive Tree and Big Festive Tree are sold in place of two of the furniture items from December 10 to 24, and the Festive Candle and Festive Flag are sold from December 26 to 31.

== Special Features ==
+
===In {{CF|short|nolink}}===
+
In {{CF}}, Tom Nook's store is no longer near the Able Sisters. The Tom Nook Point System returns from {{WW|short|nolink}} and points now also serve as currency, allowing the player to purchase unique Nintendo-themed items. The rarity groups from {{PG|nolink}} and {{WW|short|nolink}} do not return. The store sells mostly the same items as in {{WW|short|nolink}}, except for being able to sell paint beginning at Nook 'n' Go rather than Nookington's, and not selling Notes in Bottles. The store can now occasionally sell [[silver tools]] in place of standard tools beginning at Nook 'n' Go.
−
These are the special features that Tom Nook's Store can provide.
+
Thirty days after the store has upgraded to Nookington's, Tom Nook will allow the player to downgrade the store to Nook 'n' Go or Nookway. If the player chooses to downgrade the store, the store will close and reopen a week later, and Tom Nook will give them the option to upgrade it again after thirty days of the store being open.
−
=== The Turnip Stalk Market ===
+
==Stages==
−
A noteworthy item that Nook will buy is the [[white turnip]], an item that may be purchased by the player from [[Joan]] on Sunday mornings between 6am and noon. This particular transaction is notable because the price Nook will pay varies from day to day, forcing the player to follow the Stalk Market.
+
===Nook's Cranny===
+
{{Main|Nook's Cranny}}
+
Nook's Cranny is the initial stage of Tom Nook's store. The player works here during their [[part-time job]] at the beginning of each game.
+
+
===Nook 'n' Go===
+
{{Main|Nook 'n' Go}}
+
Nook 'n' Go is the first expansion of Tom Nook's store. It is designed after a convenience store. To open in {{PG|nolink}} and {{WW|short|nolink}}, the player must buy or sell a total of 25,000 Bells-worth of items at Nook's Cranny. In {{CF|short|nolink}}, the Bell amount is increased to 30,000.
+
+
===Nookway===
+
{{Main|Nookway}}
+
Nookway is the second expansion of Tom Nook's store. It is designed after a supermarket store. To open in {{PG|nolink}} and {{WW|short|nolink}}, the player must buy or sell a total of 65,000 Bells-worth of items at Nook 'n' Go. In {{CF|short|nolink}}, the Bell amount is increased to 80,000.
−
=== The Catalog ===
+
===Nookington's===
−
{{main|Catalog}}
+
{{Main|Nookington's}}
−
Aside from selling items in the store, Nook also gives the player access to their own personalized catalog, from which the player can order any item that they have held in their pockets. Anything that was ever held there will be featured, but rare items, [[fossil]]s, [[fish]], etc. cannot be ordered. When purchased, an item will arrive by mail in about five hours. Only five items may be ordered at a time between mailings.
+
Nookington's is the final expansion of Tom Nook's store. It is a two-story department store with miscellaneous items being sold on the first floor, operated by Tom Nook, and housewares being sold on the second floor, operated by [[Timmy and Tommy]]. In {{WW|short|nolink}}, the store has a third floor, where [[Shampoodle]] is located. To open in {{PG|nolink}} and {{WW|short|nolink}}, the player must buy or sell a total of 240,000 Bells-worth of items at Nookway and have a person from another town buy or sell at least one item. In the [[Wii U]] Virtual Console release of {{WW|short|nolink}} however, the friend requirement was removed due to the lack of local or online multiplayer support, meaning the player can buy or sell a total of 240,000 Bells in order to unlock Nookington's. {{CF|short|nolink}} also removed the friend requirement and the Bell amount was reduced to 150,000.
−
=== Monthly Lottery ===
+
==Selection==
−
{{main|Lottery}}
+
Below is the daily selection of each stage of Tom Nook's store in each game.
−
In {{PG}}, Nook offers a raffle for three rare items on the last day of every month. These items can only be obtained through the monthly raffles. One entry for a chance to win requires five [[Raffle Tickets|raffle tickets.]] Tickets are given to you by Nook during the month after the purchase of an item in the store (not for items ordered through your catalog). The tickets are only good for the month they are labeled for but can be used in the future if saved. Nook will only give out raffle tickets for purchasing certain items. Items that will give you a raffle ticket are [[clothes]], [[umbrella]]s, [[furniture]], [[wallpaper]], and [[carpet]].
When buying items in the store in ''Wild World'' and ''City Folk'', Players are awarded Nook Points. For every 100 Bells spent, the Player earns 1 Nook Point. However, this is not cumulative: i.e. buying a pack of seeds at 80 Bells gives zero Nook Points, buying two for 160 Bells will still give zero Nook Points since they were purchased separately.

==== Methods for gaining points ====
+
===In {{CF|short|nolink}}===
−
The easiest method for accumulating points would be waiting for when Tom Nook has a "5 times Point Day". These days, which are announced on the town message board, any item will award five times the normal point value. A normal purchase of an item at 100 Bells will now give the player five points during these days. Items ordered from the catalog will work as well. During these times, a moon will give you 1,600 points. This means, to get Platinum membership, the player must pay 400,000 [[Bells]]. That would normally get the player 4,000 points, not even enough to reach Silver membership.

Tom Nook's store
The four stages of Tom Nook's store in Animal Crossing: City Folk
Tom Nook's store (also known as Tom Nook's shop or simply the shop) is a store in the Animal Crossing series owned by Tom Nook. It sells various items, such as furniture, wallpaper, flooring, and tools; Tom Nook also offers various services within the store, such as buying items from the player and giving access to the catalog. The store first appears in Doubutsu no Mori and appears in all subsequent games up to and including Animal Crossing: City Folk.
Tom Nook welcoming the player to Nook's Cranny in Animal Crossing
In Animal Crossing, Tom Nook's store appears in one of the five A acres. Items sold include furniture, wallpapers, carpets, clothing, umbrellas, flower bags, saplings, tools, paint (Nookway onward), diaries (Nookway onward), and Sign Boards (Nookway onward). If the player speaks to Tom Nook, he will allow them to sell items, access the catalog, check turnip prices, and hear or say secret codes.
The furniture, clothing, wallpapers, and carpets sold at Tom Nook's store each have an item group of either A, B, or C, with one group being common and one being rare. Which group is common or rare is randomized upon the creation of the town. Tom Nook will mail the player when there is an item from their rare item group in stock at the store.
The store occasionally sells seasonal items in place some of its standard stock: the Festive Tree and Big Festive Tree are sold in place of two of the furniture items from December 1 to 24, and the Festive Candle and Festive Flag are sold from December 26 to 30. Candy is sold from October 16 to 30 in place of flower bags, and Grab Bags are sold on Sale Day in place of all non-furniture or clothing items.
On the last day of each month, a lottery is held where the player can obtain unique items; no items can be bought or sold during a lottery. Additionally, Tom Nook occasionally holds One Day Sales, where he gives the player a balloon and sells one random item in place of his usual stock. One Day Sales are announced on the bulletin board and last for one hour.
The player visiting Nookway after-hours in Doubutsu no Mori e+
Doubutsu no Mori e+ adds the ability for the player to visit Tom Nook's store after-hours if they hit the entrance with an axe or shovel three times. This turns on the lights inside and opens the door, allowing the player to enter and purchase items. During this time, Tom Nook, Timmy, and Tommy wear pajamas, walk much slower than usual, increase item prices by 20%, and decrease the price they buy items at by 70%. Additionally, the catalog is inaccessible at this time.
New to Doubutsu no Mori e+ are objects, which can be purchased from Tom Nook in the store. Additionally, the store sells crackers from December 16 to 30, as well as Medicine year-round.
The player accessing the Tom Nook Point System in Nook's Cranny in Wild World
In Animal Crossing: Wild World, Tom Nook's store appears directly to the left of the Able Sisters. New to Wild World is the Tom Nook Point System, where the player earns points for purchasing items and can receive unique items and discounts. The store sells furniture, wallpapers, carpets, tools, stationery, Notes in Bottles, flower bags, saplings (Nook 'n' Go onward), and paint (Nookington's only). All stages of the store are open from 8 AM to 11 PM.
The rarity group system returns from Animal Crossing, with the furniture, clothing, wallpapers, and carpets sold at Tom Nook's store each having an item group of either A, B, or C. New to Wild World are spotlight items, rare items that can appear in place of a standard group item.
The store occasionally sells seasonal items in place some of its standard stock: the Festive Tree and Big Festive Tree are sold in place of two of the furniture items from December 10 to 24, and the Festive Candle and Festive Flag are sold from December 26 to 31.
In Animal Crossing: City Folk, Tom Nook's store is no longer near the Able Sisters. The Tom Nook Point System returns from Wild World and points now also serve as currency, allowing the player to purchase unique Nintendo-themed items. The rarity groups from Animal Crossing and Wild World do not return. The store sells mostly the same items as in Wild World, except for being able to sell paint beginning at Nook 'n' Go rather than Nookington's, and not selling Notes in Bottles. The store can now occasionally sell silver tools in place of standard tools beginning at Nook 'n' Go.
Thirty days after the store has upgraded to Nookington's, Tom Nook will allow the player to downgrade the store to Nook 'n' Go or Nookway. If the player chooses to downgrade the store, the store will close and reopen a week later, and Tom Nook will give them the option to upgrade it again after thirty days of the store being open.
Nook 'n' Go is the first expansion of Tom Nook's store. It is designed after a convenience store. To open in Animal Crossing and Wild World, the player must buy or sell a total of 25,000 Bells-worth of items at Nook's Cranny. In City Folk, the Bell amount is increased to 30,000.
Nookway is the second expansion of Tom Nook's store. It is designed after a supermarket store. To open in Animal Crossing and Wild World, the player must buy or sell a total of 65,000 Bells-worth of items at Nook 'n' Go. In City Folk, the Bell amount is increased to 80,000.
Nookington's is the final expansion of Tom Nook's store. It is a two-story department store with miscellaneous items being sold on the first floor, operated by Tom Nook, and housewares being sold on the second floor, operated by Timmy and Tommy. In Wild World, the store has a third floor, where Shampoodle is located. To open in Animal Crossing and Wild World, the player must buy or sell a total of 240,000 Bells-worth of items at Nookway and have a person from another town buy or sell at least one item. In the Wii U Virtual Console release of Wild World however, the friend requirement was removed due to the lack of local or online multiplayer support, meaning the player can buy or sell a total of 240,000 Bells in order to unlock Nookington's. City Folk also removed the friend requirement and the Bell amount was reduced to 150,000.
This list only includes items that are normally purchasable from Tom Nook's store; raffle items and items given to the player by Tom Nook himself are not included.
↑ 6.06.1At Nook 'n' Go, the sapling switches randomly between a standard and cedar sapling. At Nookington's, the third sapling switches randomly between a standard and cedar sapling.
↑One of the tools is replaced by candy in October. Additionally, beginning at Nook 'n' Go, silver tools sometimes take the place of standard tools.
