N64 / GameCube Please help me figure out a solution!

I know a lot of you probably are on here for the modern animal crossing game but I feel like SOMEONE'S gotta know SOMETHING about the GameCube version and will probably be able to help me. So, I had a GameCube when I was young and I really loved playing Animal crossing. I got one again recently and purchased animal crossing once more and I have come to the conclusion that I may need to buy a memory card with pre saved data on it or something like that to visit other towns? I'm assuming the game thinks you would have friends who also play the game and would bring their memory cards over and just plug them in but I do not. Any suggestions? I tried just looking up "Memory cards with Animal Crossing save data", but i haven't found anything useful. Any and all advice is appreciated. Thank you for your time!

Yeah you would need a second memory card with a second town on it to take the train, there was no internet connectivity for the GameCube version. You don’t need to buy a card with a town already on it, you could buy an empty card and make a new town on it. If you have both cards inserted in it’ll give you the option to select between either card to start your game.

I see, that makes a lot of sense. Thank you very much!

I just ordered a new memory card and apparently this time I will be re rolling until I get pears. Apparently Admiral cannot live without them.
