E3 10: Animal Crossing really pops on the 3DS photo

The reveal images for Nintendo's 3DS games continues with none other than Animal Crossing. Yep, that's what the company is calling it for now -- just "Animal Crossing." No "3DS" in the name, but I'd be surprised if that doesn't eventually become the case.

The game clearly makes good use of the handheld's processing power and graphical capabilities, as you can see in the attached screenshots. What else do we know? Very little at this time, sadly. All Nintendo is saying currently is that Animal Crossing will make use of the 3DS' new-and-improved wireless functionality.

Sounds like a match made in heaven, to me.

The characters have had a growth spurt...

This obviously signifies huge changes. I WANT.

Well, shit - i'm trying to ween myself off my second foray into Animal Crossing DS (been going for almost a year), and now they announce this! I'm doomed!

I'm pretty worn out on Animal Crossing, but it certainly looks good.

The word "WOW" just burst out of my mouth as I saw that. I feel like I've woke up inside of a gamer's dream or something, the announcements just don't stop!

If this isn't just basically a port it will be awesome.

DO I SEE CUSTOMISABLE PANTS AND SKIRTS IN THIS GAME? :3

Hell, this looks graphically superior to the Wii version. This should be awesome.

Oh god, not again. I really should not buy this game because if I do, I'll just get sucked into it all over again. Damn my addiction for collecting complete sets of pixelized furniture!

I remember playing the first one on the gamecube, it was fun and the NES games made it even more awesome. Then I got the DS one, after paying off Tom Nook, it just got boring, and then I played the sims... Yeah, not going back to Animal Crossing for a while unless they up the replay value

This looks like a let-down to me. I liked the old style better, how the characters were chibi. ... Ish.

Seriously. This scares me. The concept seems good of being the mayor and all, but still... this bugs me.
