I like this entry a lot purely for the grid-based town layout and how insanely mean the neighbors are. The amount of vitriol and spite everyone throws at you loops back from being awful to genuinely some of the funniest shit I've seen in a Nintendo game.

The limited storage space, multiple in-game days it takes to get shit done, and far slower pacing does make this a lot more antiquated over the later entries. That said, this is still worth a look because the vibe is immaculate.
