| abstract | - Town tunes can also be played on instruments that can be bought in Tom Nook's stores (every game before Animal Crossing: New Leaf) or the Nookling Stores (Animal Crossing: New Leaf only). If music is playing at the same time, the instrument plays at the same speed. The player can change the notes by selecting a frog and moving the frog up or down. If a frog is pulled up to the top, the frog will play a random note. If a frog is pulled to the bottom, the frog will not play a note and will be silent. If a frog is pulled to the note above the bottom, it will sustain the previous note. Every game before Animal Crossing: New Leaf had their own town tune while the N64 and GameCube versions have the same (except Animal Forest e+, which has the different tune). However in Animal Crossing: New Leaf, there are 4 different default town tunes that are selected randomly when the game is first started. Sometimes, when town tunes are played while talking to a special character or villager, it can relate to the villager's personality. Cranky villagers may make the tune sound somewhat strange, peppy villagers will make the tune sound bubbly and normal villagers will take the tune and make it perky. Some lazy villagers make the town tune sound like it has no rhythm. On La-Di-Day in Wild World, almost every villager will talk about the town tune, and how the player should change it.
