  "raw_analysis": "Nookipedia is a community-driven wiki and data resource for the Animal Crossing video game series, operated by the Nookipedia team. Its API (hosted at api.nookipedia.com, with dodo.ac serving as a branded short domain) provides structured, wiki-sourced data for games in the franchise, primarily Animal Crossing: New Horizons, though some older titles may be partially covered.\n\nThe API is a standard REST/JSON service. Authentication is via an API key obtained by request from the Nookipedia team, typically passed in an HTTP header. Key endpoints cover game entities such as villagers, fish, bugs, sea creatures, fossils, art, items, recipes, events, and clothing. Responses are JSON and designed for consumption by companion apps, Discord bots, websites, and AI datasets.\n\nMaturity: The project has been active for several years and is well-regarded in the Animal Crossing fan community. It is maintained by volunteers rather than a commercial entity, so uptime and rate limits are best-effort. Documentation is available on the Nookipedia wiki and via the API portal.\n\nPricin
