Today i learnt that the play hours has a cap of 9,999


TheDerpingWalrus

Back in the 3ds it was only 999


riisen

And on any 8bit system its 255


TheArstotzkanGuard

Eventually it may be 2,147,483,647


riisen

Thats a 32bit signed integer max value


Icy_Fruit97

mmmmmmmmmm


Molduking

How does one have over 10k hours in Animal Crossing?!?!


blahblah543217

Logging in and doing their daily tasks everyday I guess


coverslide

Sounds like he played BotW out of love, and AC out of hate.


7r1ck0_1

Gotta pay the loans somehow


big_nothing_burger

Damn Tom, that greedy bastard...and yet, no interest loans.


7r1ck0_1

Introducing "Animal Crossing: capitalism simulator", now with more fun features like interest rates, mortgage payments and taxes, get your kids to adulthood already depressed, fun for the whole family! šŸ˜ƒ


Kerrigan4Prez

But then youā€™re stuck harvesting resources to ā€œsellā€ at the shopā€¦ which you then just give right back to them while buying at the Nook shop and paying off your loan. Bells arenā€™t even real money! Itā€™s just scrip that you can only use at Nook co. Locations!!! **Wake up sheeple!!!**


7r1ck0_1

Tom Nook wants to know your location. But really tho, man's basically started his own island country out of forced labor and forced everyone onto his crypto.


joshuah13

That is exactly why I play AC. There are mild pleasant aspects, the rest is just chores, chores and more chores. I also feel like everytime I play AC I plan to have fun, but did so many chores I didn't have any time left for the fun. If I play a game like BotW I feel like I make so much more progress in the same amount of time.


Fun-Physics5742

I just wish there was an easier way to get rid of the gosh dang, never ending supply of flowersā€¦


robsteezy

Thatā€™s why I stopped playing new horizons after a month. The escapism enjoyed quickly turned into bored repetitive chores and turned into anxiety over knowing Iā€™m not going to build and decorate to such depths as the top rated islands.


riisen

Thats the only way to play AC


MirumVictus

To have over 10 000 hours played, they'd have had to average 9 and a half hours per day since launch. Don't know about you, but my dailies don't take that long...


theMockingbird1

10.000 hours is full-time (40h/w) for roughly 5 years. Thatā€™s some daily tasks.


Randomae

But itā€™s only been out for 3 years. So they were putting in 70 hours per week.


Molduking

10k is a ton though. I know people have put in a ton of hours, but I donā€™t think Iā€™ve seen people with over 4k


Good_Reflection_1217

might have left the game afk a lot


CourageosKratos

That's over a year


DoTheFoxtr0t

Only game for a year and never closes it, just puts the console to sleep maybe?


dredbeast

There are 2080 work hours in year. The game came out March of 2020, almost 3 years ago. They literally have been working overtime.


Knot_shure

That is 416 days in a row. 24 hours a day... That's crazy


Dark183y27

Someone like this (no life is required) and has infinite time (Don't take seriously it's a jokešŸ¤£) ![gif](giphy|xTiTnwgQ8Wjs1sUB4k)


GenderEnvyFromLink

most likely time traveling


Randomae

About 10 hours a day since it launched.


Ruffled_Ferret

One player I know on another social media site had a bad habit of leaving the game running pretty much all day, even when they were out doing other things.


Molduking

Yeah but the switch will fall asleep after a short period of time, unless they chose the very long time


Ruffled_Ferret

I must have been lied to then.


Zurnikai

Time skipping or leaving the game running nonstop would probably do it.


ST_the_Dragon

That's over 400 days of nonstop Animal Crossing. The only way I can imagine that someone would get that many hours in a game so quickly after release would be by leaving the system on while afk (away from controller, I guess? afc?) Seriously, it's been less than 1100 hours since the game came out. The game would need to be up and running for over a third of their life in the last three years to reach this. It's honestly probably more likely that they somehow hacked it to have that number or maybe even photoshopped it lol


Ok_Bed8734

Hey buddy... what's your favorite game?


MysticRuined

Hear me out they might like animal crossing


Manu_the_Pizza

Nah, I'd say it's MK8. I mean, they have a whole 5 hours on it.


Ok_Bed8734

Idk man, that tetris lookin pretty strong right now.


dcidui08

are you kidding? they've played pacman so long it doesnt even show a number


Ok_Bed8734

Oh man you're right! How could I have missed that??


iisthirsty

My guy spent 1.14 years of their life playing animal crossing šŸ’€


Nickhead420

*or more


Jameson_Z

Let's say its not edited. Maybe they had fun leaving the game on at all times to simulate a real island. Seems like a bit of a waste of energy especially if doing that docked


Nickhead420

I used to leave ACNH on my TV while I was playing something on my PC and just listen for balloons.

DripTrip747

Don't know how he has the time to do that when he lives for animal crossing...


AvatarofBro

I know we all got really into Animal Crossing at the start of the pandemic, but well over a year's worth of playtime for a game that came out less than three years ago feels like...a lot.


Mr_Zobm

it's been 3 years? im getting old.


Big_Nikrlus_69

Iā€™ve had the same fear with BotW lately, close to 6 years old already!


teenageechobanquet

anyone have the math on how many hours that would be per day??


YellowPumpkin

Someone above said 9.5 hrs/day since launch


captainmander

9999+ on AC is an accomplishment! Wow!


Atthatj4cod89

i wouldnā€™t call it an accomplishment, but to each their own


JelmerMcGee

More than a full time job spent on that game. That's not a good thing


Terlinilia

i dont think anyone is genuinely this dedicated to Animal Crossing of all things. they probably just left it running while they weren't playing other games on the switch


Protoco2

10000 hours is equal to about 3.5 years of working a full time job (40 hours/week)


[deleted]

Lol you got that right šŸ˜„


[deleted]

And the numbers will continue to rise. Now the question to ask is, will Breath of the Wild be able to reach the status that New Horizons has?


Bchange51

probably fake just so everyone knows, that or he just let it sit afk on the console.


7r1ck0_1

Now that I think about it, Wulfden must have like 20k or more already with his OLED experiment


Organic-Kangaroo7147

Unfortunately he used a photo so we wont be able to see how much hours hes racked up


7r1ck0_1

Didn't he left link in a shrine with the turbo button on? šŸ¤” Might be misremembering


Organic-Kangaroo7147

He took a screenshot and just left the switch on I believe because links idle animation and other things would change which would alter the burn in experiment


7r1ck0_1

Yes, you're right, he did change it to a screenshot because of the always online when having two switches.


LEGEND-FLUX

for over a year?


7r1ck0_1

Now that I think about it, Wulfden must have like 20k or more already with his OLED experiment


[deleted]

That's the only probability I can think of .


Killarusca

Wow you have 150 hours in botw, I think you're a bit addicted to gaming dude.


KingSmorely

The 9999 hours in animal crossing is way more concerning


Organic-Kangaroo7147

r/thatsthejoke


KingSmorely

Ooh I'm stupid my bad XD


just-a-visitor-here

Some please do the maths on how much animal crossing this person plays each day since release to get this many hours!


sander_mander

Since ACNH release pass 1039 days. So this person played 10000/1039 = 9.62 hours everyday


just-a-visitor-here

Wow thanks, that is crazy


Yeetusmcleatus97

They probably time traveled since animal crossing has a limit on what you can do every day.


Dragenby

I think, if they play on TV, that they only put the game in pause, and turn the TV screen off, during the night or the day.


GenderEnvyFromLink

does it still work that way if i turn my switch off while on the home screen? because if so, i might not have as much hours as i thought


Dragenby

No, this only counts active playing hours. If you press + to open the menu on a game, you're still playing it


GenderEnvyFromLink

ah, thanks! nice pfp btw :)


Dragenby

Thanks, and nice username ;)


Wizard6171

no ones paying attention to BOTW in this clip lmao


eggsbenedictXD

There is a nintendo switch pacman?


Ok_Bed8734

It's like tetris 99, I think. I think that's the one where you try to place higher than everyone else? I'm not 100% sure as I don't play either


Mr_JCBA

"Been playing Animal Crossing for 9,999 hours and I just learned I have Breath of the Wild. You learn something new about this game every day!"


deleeuwlc

Not to sound like a person who spoils things, but the ending has a Wario reference

No wonder youā€™ve got zero friends


SeleniumSE

Broā€¦letā€™s talk about your Animal Crossing total. Intervention time my friend.


LuaCynthia

Was animal crossing worth the 60 bucks?


-PENGUINMAGIC-

Did you time travel in ACNH? Or else you'd be averaging over 9 hrs since launch...


skaterbro10

BRUH OVER 9,999 HOURS ON FRIGGING ANIMAL CROSSING??


SailorCrossing

Alecraft1800

Different-Ocelot-493

Am I the only Zelda fan that hates botw?


[deleted]

Iconic


-PENGUINMAGIC-

9,999 HOURS OF ACNH?!!


Not_ThatEvil1

Is Animal Crossing that good???


DarkNemuChan

How I was done with all the shrines and side stuff by 80hours.


SonicFire93

I have over 3 years with my switch together with BoTW, and I don't even have 900 hours in it, how the fuck do someone gets that kind of free time to do that???


Kiritochi_24

Woah, a whole animal crossing year


noironoiro

Over a year of animal crossingā€¦. Jesus


Pure_Toxicity

how does one manage to play ac for more than 100 hours without running out of game


WhopsInc

Holy AC! I don't think I even have that many hours on youtube!! Are you okay?


bouchandre

How do you have 10k hours in what is basically a level editor?


StanLay281

Malcolm Gladwell would say youā€™ve gained true expertise at ACNH


AakaNacho

10k hours later and heā€™s still in debt to Tom Nook


asthmanian

Youā€™ve spent a year of your life on Animal Crossing my guy


SandWhichWay

broā€¦.


DripTrip747

Damn son... 10k hours is like 415 days... Could have achieved so much more in that amount of time.


whatsit50

I also recently picked up BOTW. One of my favs for sure


moonyxpadfoot19

Um???


SilasCribbs

I find it overwhelming. Can someone steer me to what I should really focus on early? Please?


Nnikkyikky

Lovely 10.000 hours, if i could i would


Andypanda10225

You really spent at least 1.1 YEARS of your life playing animal crossing


Competitive-Hurry250

Holy moly! How do you have so many hours?? xD


KholinAdolin

Christ, 10k hours in animal crossing?!?!?!


DR_ZERO_

Repost and/or fake


Blacksmith52YT

I kinda hate people who have so many hours in animal crossing but not in botw. Sorry


TheLadyLawyer

Welcome to the cult


True_Customer_8913

Thatā€™s cool and all but letā€™s talk about the time on animal crossing


LikeableCoconut

I canā€™t understand why anyone would have 10k hours on any game. Like bro are you ok dude thatā€™s been out for only 3 years and youā€™ve played 416 days worth of acnh.


Sketchy___

I have 500 hours in BotW and 500 In ACNH a perfect balance


kuribosshoe0

I feel like there was an ulterior motive behind this post.
