Theories about why Dina and Nina Caliente appeared in Barnacle Bay.

  • I don't get this Sims's three is set before the time of The Sims 2 their parents would have been children in this game, unless they time travelled with Don it doesn't make sense. --- HappyMintChocolate 13:09, September 25, 2010 (UTC)HappyMintChocolate
  • I think when Caliente sister use time machine to travel from Barnacle Bay to Pleasentview --- Jasonyiu 13:18, September 25, 2010 (UTC)
  • The only answer I can find is that they travelled in time with Don. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.219.79.121 (talkcontribs) 2010-10-15T12:04:15 (UTC) - Please sign your comments with ~~~~
  • The Sims 3 is not set before The Sims. Sunset Valley, Riverview and Twinbrook are, based on the fact that younger versions of known Sims live there. It is entirely possible that Barnacle Bay occurs at a time closer to the events of The Sims 2. --a_morris (talk) 16:49, October 15, 2010 (UTC)
  • The time gap between most of the neighbourhoods in TS3 seem to be inconsistent. We assume that Sunset Valley starts approximately 50 years before Pleasantview because Mortimer is a child in the former and an old man in the latter; likewise Riverview seems to be on approximately the same time scale because Bob and Betty are teens there and have recently died of old age when the Pleasantview storyline picks up. (The only unexplained inconsistencies in Sunset Valley and Riverview seem to be in the age gap between Bob and Betty and Skip Broke - all from Riverview - but hey, EA's continuity is never perfect, as this discussion proves). However, based on the ages of Notzo and Zo Curious in Twinbrook (they are toddler and child respectively, but if Twinbrook was entirely contemporary to Sunset Valley and Riverview we would expect them to be adults and their son, Glarn, to already be a child or teen himself) and of Dina and Nina Caliente in Barnacle Bay (perhaps only a few years younger than when they appear in Pleasantview, while we might expect their parents to be in the child stage and their actual birth to still be about 20 years off), an alternate, less straightforward time-line might make more sense. For example, we could assume from the above evidence that Twinbrook is situated in time some 75 years before TS2, Sunset Valley and Riverview 50 years before, and Barnacle Bay maybe only 5 years or even less. Perhaps the Caliente sisters' sudden, unannounced arrival in Pleasantview is a direct result of the events that caused them to leave Barnacle Bay and their friendship with Luisa behind, and the whole thing is the creators' attempt to pad out their back-story a bit? This would be my guess, anyway. Beatrice Monty 16:58, October 15, 2010 (UTC) *apologies for going over the same theory as above, we apparently posted at the same time. :p
