receiving mail from every male or female animal Animal Crossing Items in town, one villager of the opposite gender who has the highest friendship status with the player will send a Chocolate Heart item. The Chocolate Heart cannot be placed in the player’s house as a furniture item like in New Horizons, as it is meant to be eaten. Like eating fruit though, the Chocolate Heart does not provide any benefits.
In an unfortunate set of circumstances, Animal Crossing: City Folk’s true Valentine’s Day items were only distributed over Nintendo’s online WiiConnect24 service as downloadable goodies–which is no longer available through conventional means, but hey they were readily there for a select period of time! North American players were once able to receive LOLGA.COM a Cupid Bench, while Japan got the Chocolate Heart item that became a staple gift in future games. Strangely enough, South Korean players were able to obtain the first variation of the Flower Boquet.
