Animal Crossing is visiting the 3DS in 2012 photo

I won't lie here, I'm really excited for a new Animal Crossing. I still play my original Gamecube copy of the first game, though my grass is often way too abundant to bother pulling. This upcoming 3DS entry will, of course, provide more of the same village simulating action, but with the benefits of the 3DS including improved visuals and greater networking capabilities. 

From a gameplay angle, this new Animal Crossing will allow players to "become the head of the village and boost its development." A broader perspective in the village should add a neat spin to the series. You'll also be able to install specific items throughout the village to give it some character as well as visit homes that have been collected via StreetPass. Fingers crossed for a good one here come 2012... whenever we get it.

I don't get hyped for these games but they are like crack. Must pull every weed and collect every golden tool

Ahh the Gamecube version was imo the best Animal Crossing game. Wild World and City Folk just never got me fully attached to them. Hopefully this will prove different when we get it.

Even if it was like the rest, I'd still play it for months.

More than just about any other series, I play Animal Crossing for how it makes me feel, not for any concrete reason I can easily put into words. More than anything, the series is just about "being there".

I hope this iteration makes me feel just as awesome as the last 3 did.

Completely agree with that statement, it's hard to explain but I totally get where you're coming from.

That being said, totally getting this. Animal Crossing is so good.
