Alto family/theories

The Sims 3 is a prequel to The Sims. So, if the Altos pretty much run the town, why aren't they mentioned in any other game? Post your theories here.

Theories

 * I have the most logic explanation. I think Malcolm Landgraab from The Sims 3 is not a relative of Malcolm Landgraab I, I think he IS Malcolm I from The Sims Bustin Out and The Sims on console. Therefore he married Holly Alto who is rather "Mom" or the unknown partner of Malcolm who fathered Malcolm II. I also think Nick and Vita died so the Alto legacy continued in the Landgraab's. Simple.


 * I think, they were run out of town before the beginning of The Sims, for being too evil...


 * I think that Holly, didn't marry or have any children, so the family ended.


 * Gunther won to be mayor and they moved to another town.


 * I think that since Holly is the exact opposite of her parents, she moved away to a different town to get a way from her parents. Plus, the parents died of old age before The Sims. However, if there is a Sims 4, I think the Altos will be in the game.


 * That's because they are newly created in The Sims 3, just like any other Sims. Does it really need explanation? --Bayoubash 06:38, 11 July 2009 (UTC)


 * I think that Holly Alto countinued as "Mom" in The Sims console version. Considereding that she was good unlike her parents. Nick and Vita probably died and Malcom married Holly to have Mimi and Dudely
 * Off game explanation: they just weren't created before. In game explanation: They overcame the Landgraab in the town control race, and as long as you're on the top when you're ambitious, you look for new challenges. Therefore, they found a new city to rule, and this wasn't any of the 6 sims2 towns.
