Hey troll guess what?

That worked perfectly.
Queer.
Same game as the other 3 rehashes…
Halo?
You haven’t played Halo, have you? You should be saying Call of Duty.
Halo? Call of duty? Mass effect? Battlefield? Give me talking animals over those anyday
Mario? Zelda? Star Fox?
seriously Nintendo is mostly rehashes.
also Mass Effect isnt really a rehash at all.
ME1: RPG-Action
ME2: Action
ME3: Action-RPG
There is a different between sequels and rehashes . Nintendo isnt mostly ‘rehashes’ at all .
Ok NSMB games are all a bit similar . Other than that Nintendo games are always changed vastly .
It’s always good to see at least a few people who aren’t brain-dead on the internet.

Is this hommer ? If so homer have 4 fingers not 5
Thats Patrick Stewart :)
False. This game is the most changed ac game. It is very different.
That’s an ignorant comment.
Thanks for confirming you ust blow smoke out your ass instead of having actual, valid Troll comments.
I don’t know if you have played a lot of Animal Crossing games or if you just didn’t watch the whole video, but Nintendo has added a TON of content to this game. Some people didn’t enjoy the other games in the series so they just wouldn’t understand, but for an Animal Crossing fan, this is huge! There are so many new things and so much content that this game will be the best AC game by far and a top runner for all 3DS games for sure.
I agree, it’s had tons of stuff added. Compare to the de one, wild world. All you could do was sit in your town an have ppl come over. This has really stepped it up.
but it’s still fun.
Yet it’s still fun to people and it’s what they want.
You sir are a successful troll…
I kinda want this game more than the WiiU .____.
Agreed! This excites me more than any new game or console.
I wouldn’t dream of going that far , But I share your enthusiasm for this game . i hope its better than wild world , which it will inevitably be .
I still really want the WiiU, got my preorder ready and everything, but i still dont a “killer app” with the WiiU yet. It would be Pikmin 3, but thats not launch day title.
It’s my most anticipated for 3DS right now. :3
Dude , does luigis mansion 2 , fire emblem and castlevania mean nothing to you ?? :P
Just kidding , Animal crossing to many many people is the most exciting :) .
3DS has killer titles sticking out of its ass .
I’m leery of the upcoming 3DS Castlevania…..I’m not convinced that going the same route as the recent PS3 ones is a good choice, as it was more God of War style than Exploration, and Castlevania is widely known for its exploration and collection elements more than its combat variety.
I played and semi-liked Lords of shadow, though, so I’ll just keep a cautiously-optimistic eye on it for now…
Its more 2d/3d gameplay should help though !! I think it looks reallt great , but like you say it could turn out to be just good instead of awesome.
Im still iffy on it too. Im hoping its good mix of LoS, and classic Castlevania.
Me too! It looks like I’ll be playing this with my friends for a WHILE!
Totally! Unless they release a better ac for the wiiU…
they should introduce a serial killer
You need prayers cause therapy can’t cure what ever is bugging your brain.
Why…

I wish they made it so you can change the seasons by hemisphere/location. It snows when it’s summer here :( but meh, I’ll still get the game.
I hope theres an option where you can have 4 month years, or something. Keep it in real time, but just have 1 month every season.
Don’t think that will really work as they do have planned events for birthdays, new years etc.
Thats true

My body is SOOO ready! Several of these changes\additions seem long overdue, like being able to swim, and K.K. being a DJ alongside his 9-5 as a troubadour is neat. Add in 3D, and I say “Shut up and take my money!”
Gay and for babies
Like you, then. XP
Little big planet?
While I do agree that his comment was stupid, leave LBP out of it. It’s fun…
I know but they both have the same principles so he cant call 1 fag and the other dont , but youl learn how to handle trolls soon enough
You’re just adding to his trolling.
Both LittleBigPlanet and Animal Crossing are awesome games.
BURN! xD
DAMN IT this was supposed to be a reply to the LBP comment :P *sigh*
Lol you know you want it.

Good work, Sickr! It’s always awesome seeing how fast you post this stuff. Keep up the good work!
For those of you that want to know more, check out my post, I added a bunch of screen shots and translated a lot of extra stuff that was said in the NintendoDirectJP vid!
Well, as far as I’m concerned, this version is nothing like the past Animal Crossing games.
My fave was on gamecube but i enjoy all the same
Will there be co op play for this game
Uh. Serious?
>.<
How can you co-op in AC? I'm sure there will be online modes like WW and City Folk though. Visit a friend's town or have a friend visit yours, etc.
i thought so thx
No prob. Sorry if that came off a bit harsh. I just wasn’t sure if you were serious, or trolling.
Lots of trolling on this site these days – it’s hard to differentiate sometimes. =p
If you guys would watch the video you would see the answer to your question. :/
Don’t really have to watch the video, it’s in the article itself.
But yeah. I know. I read and watched.
Yep but you have to allowed
Depends on your definition of co-op xD you can visit other peoples towns and stuff, duno how far that goes, i only played the DS version.
FUCK NINTENDO I USED TO LIKE EM BUT NOW ITS PURE BULLSHIT WITH LIKE 3DS AND WII U THAT SHIT SUCKS BALLS GO SUCK ON UR MOMS COCK U GAY NINTENDO FANBOYS!
Lol you know you want this game.
Was that a serious attempt at trolling? I didn’t know your mom was a transvestite. How interesting that you chose to cop a user’s name instead of making one on your own.
Hahahaha butthurt much
You are a Fake,Troll imposter.
1.) Jaded uses “Fuck” often, but never “cock.”
2.) Jaded never uses “ALL CAPS” for an entire post.
3.) “Jaded” is better looking than you are.
4.) I am “Jaded.”
Nice try though. I’m honored to have pissed the trolls off enough to have cloned my user name. ;-)
A while ago that happened to me.It was flattering and funny but from the style of it you can tell it was ness.
besides all these new changes to the formula, I also want to be able to walk/run around town without killing the grass… Has this piece of information been discussed in any Nintendo Direct or official interview or whatever yet?
So far I don’t think it’s been brought up. But since there are random small dirt patches in the video and not how the dirt patches were in Wild World, I think the stupid “animal tracks” are still going to be in the game :(
I REALLY hope it’s not in there though.
I think I read somewhere (a while ago) that that was one of the most brought-up complaints and the devs weren’t going to include it in a sequel. I hope that a) I’m not making this up or b) they’d remove the “feature” on principle regardless
Lets hope that you’re right! I’d love to run around town again.
I did play City Folk, so maybe i’ll get this. Plus I have more friends on my 3DS then I ever had on my Wii so i’ll have a lot of people to go online with :)
Nintendo has really outdone themselves with this game. I can’t even begin to describe how excited I am for this game. Everything seems like they have put so much effort into making it the definitive version of Animal Crossing. I will play this for years to come.
In other news, the Wii U GamePad might be able to charge using USB instead of the AC adapter, but nintendo won’t tell http://gonintendo.com/?mode=viewstory&id=187150
I prefer the ac adapter
I would like to use a USB cable since Im already using all the plugs in my outlet (and extender) for TV, cable, 3DS charger, and my Wii (soon to be replaced by Wii U). So yeah I would like it if I had the option to not use another AC chord.
Maybe is a ac plug like the iphone, you know both console and outlet
I just need to get this game bacause I don’t get what’s with all of the excitment.
Just found this, get an Oswald hat if you pre-order Epic Mickey 2 or Power of Illusion http://gonintendo.com/?mode=viewstory&id=187199
Looks pretty neat but not sure if I’ll get the game at launch. But hope everyone who pre-orders the game gets their hats. Darn pre-order bonuses!
I can’t wait to have Ruby in my town forever.
I’ve only played the the original and the DS one and I loved playing them. I love the new things they are adding, seems like they’re going all out on this one. Now it just makes me wonder, how will the (if any) Wii U one will be?
Pingback: Animal Crossing 3DS Nintendo Direct: All the information
I’m not really interested in this series, but I’ll raise a toast for the fans to congratulate them getting a decent game as long as they don’t heckle me for not partaking of their cake and wine.
At least you have the decenci of not bashing something you dont like
I used to game A LOT on my DSi, then I got my 3DS and am like, “Whoa!” because the graphics and gameplay are next-level.
In turn, I’m so excited to go from Wii graphics to WiiU graphics.
It doesn’t matter what the Vita or PS3 can do, because I compare Nintendo’s successor systems to the systems I was previously on, not what’s currently out there.
SO, to me, the 3DS and WiiU have AMAZING graphics, and they have the software I want… So for we Nintendo-exclusive Fanboys, we don’t know what we’re missing, and can forever live in gaming bliss in a Nintendo Land somewhere in the Miiverse.
Found this pretty funny video. The general public seems to be clueless about the Wii U, at least until the big marketing starts :)
Those people didn’t know much about video games at all.They were CHUMPS.
Sounds very fun :D!!
The only thing I don’t like about this is the idea of mini-games. I guess I might like them after all, though.
I know, the idea seems weird for an Animal Crossing game right? They looked kind of fun though and it’s not like we have to play them if they aren’t. And at least Tortimer finally got to retire. I’m wondering what Pelly’s role is in this new game.
Hate what they did to KK Slider.
Well he still does his mellow thing he used to do at the Roost. Now he is just a DJ during the week nights probably. He needed a new gig anyways, I doubt Brewster paid him much money.
I am so excited. One thing the video had me wondering was how many villagers are there in your town? I know on Wild World it was 8 and on City Folk it was 10 or 12 or something. When I was watching the video it seemed like there were houses EVERYWHERE. But whenever they had town meetings there was only like 6 people… I wonder what the limit is? And I want this game bad enough to make a time machine just to go get it. I wouldn’t say I want it more than Wii U because the Wii U brings me more than one game, but I want more than any of the Wii U games.
I’m sooooo psyched about the new game!! I am one of THE biggest ac fan eva! Also, you can eat ice cream and drink coffee as Brewster owns his own coffee shop now!! You get ice cream when you streetpass someone a certain amount of timesn they give you gifts like pinwheels or icecream!!
can’t wait for it!
