Mr. Resetti's Contest History

Who is Mr. Resetti?
Mr. Resetti lives an unappreciated life. When some little hoodlum goes and resets the game, it's up to Mr. Resetti to set them straight. The mole with the pickaxe tries to be nice at first, but as it keeps happening, he explodes in anger. He is so intimidating that reports of kids who reset on accident have been crying in the streets, howling in pain at the verbal lambasting they received. Without Mr. Resetti, the world of Animal Crossing could not maintain its real life structure. People and animals would just reset every time something happened to them, ruining the entire point of life! It is Resetti's job to protect the meaning of life! It's not a glamorous job, but someone has to do it to keep the city in line and out of the Reset button's way. That job, belongs to Mr. Resetti!

"It don't matter if I'm eatin', takin' a hot mud bath, readin' Mole Monthly, or catchin' some z's... When that alarm goes off, I gotta stop what I'm doin' and start diggin' like it was National Diggin' Day!" - Mr. Resetti

Mr. Resetti's Contest History
Win-Loss Record: 0-1

Summer 2003 Contest - West Division - 15 Seed

 * Extrapolated Strength --- 64th Place [8.52%]

Like Tom Nook, Mr. Resetti having no chance to win his first match mattered not to Animal Crossing fans; they were simply glad to actually get AC characters into the field, regardless of their performance. Oddly enough, some felt that Mega Man underperformed against Resetti -- Mega's 2002 performance had many convinced that this would be the biggest blowout of all time, and that Mega had a shot at a 100,000 vote margin of victory.

Mega "only" getting 89% was considered a disappointment, especially consider Resetti had "Image Not Available" as his picture when the bio page was first released.

But like with Nook, there are two bright sides: one, Animal Crossing's taking down Final Fantasy 7 in Ngamer64's Great Game Contest was easily the highlight for Animal Crossing in the Summer of '03, to the point where no one cared about Resetti getting killed; and two, Animal Crossing: Wild World might get Resetti back into the field in 2006.
