For one thing, due to the smaller cartridge, there are less options available as far as furnishings and decor is concerned. So. The appearances of fish and bugs change with the seasons and time of day.There are plenty of things to decorate yourself with. There are no gold spots. Since you can use Wi-Fi, you might as well consider this a single-player game and leave it at that.All in all, this is a very enjoyable and very worthwhile game. Most annoyingly, you can have up to four players -- but those four players must share one house. You can buy letters in a bottle to throw out to sea, which randomly appear on a random friend's shore.Perhaps my favorite addition was when I made the little animal characters like me.
There are no longer 10 fossil spots to dig up; only 4. Very fun.For the first time, you can use the DS's WiFi capabilities, jump online, and visit other people's towns -- while they can visit yours. It has become a lot of fun and a great challenge to work on each character, collecting all the photos you possibly can before they move away.Is this any different from the Gamecube version. Characters appear at certain times of the year, certain times of day, and on certain days, which means there's almost always something new and fresh to see.
There is a challenge to pay off the mortgage on your house, all the while building the house as large as you can. Oh, yes. This is not really a game in the technical sense. Think "The Sims," except without any structure or story. why is this so much fun. Your character does lots of silly, mindless little activities.
OUCH. Characters jump town to town and you get to find out about all the shenanigans your friend has been carrying on via the letters his previous town's denizens are so willing to show you.
Many have asked themselves this; I don't think anybody really understands why this game is addictive.For the new and uninitiated, this is a game worth trying. The seasons change, and there are fishing tourneys, bug hunts, and special holidays.
You also collect furnishings, wallpapers, and carpets, and decorate your house to your heart's content. When they really like you, they give you their photograph.
Clothes, umbrellas, hats -- the possibilities are endless.You make "relationships" with the little animals populating your game, send them letters, and visit them on their birthdays and give them gifts. You collect fish, fossils, paintings, and bugs, opting either to sell them or put them in a museum (one of my favorite features).
Each character has its own little personality; it's a ball to see them having conversations and being allowed to "listen in" on them.There are cool options that take advantage of the DS's second screen, such as shooting presents (and other flying malcontents) out of the sky. Now, eventually, you get a four-room house, but as anyone knows: sharing the same house is not fun at all.
On animal Crossing the easiest way to get rich is to go find apples, shells,and other things. So if it is winter is snows. If you have friends in real life, and they have Animal Crossing, you can go to their town, or they could come to your town. the HRA (happy room academy) will tell you how nice your room is. Bye-Bye. they will give you points. You can send letters too.
you don't want to sell your funiture unless you don't want it any more. then you don't have to look on tv like you normally do. If it is a resident's birthday, you can send them a birthday card. I ended up having my friend Dizzy wearing it.
The Able sisters have a great shop. Every thing you own no matter if you sold them or not, will be in tom noook's catalog. animal Crossing is a great game. when tom nook expands his shop, he always has a new theme so it is fun to see what it is. It is funny how there are apples all year long. i like how it shows the seasons.
the better the room, the higher the points. Near Christmas the trees outside start to have lights on them.
At least i think there are. I made one called Rainbow pattern.
when you design your own design, you end up having some of your friends wearing your design. Tom nook sells many different kinds id stationary.
Up to three friends can come to your town at once. i love how you can design your own design.
On New Years eve the mayor makes a countdown board in front of the town hall. I love Animal crossing.
I'm sure it'd be great for children, but I got nothing out of it. This game was fun for about two days. Then it got really, really boring. One can only go fishing so many times.
he is on my list of suspicous characters. however there is more characters. Slider: he is a musician that plays at the cafe from 7:30 pm- 12 am on SaturdayJoan: the turnip vendor who comes on SundaysBrewster: owner of the museum cafeBlathers: owner of the museumCeleste: Blathers' sister, she owns the museum observertorayTortimer: the mayor of your townCortimer: Tortimer in disguse he makes an apperance at the acorn festivalBooker& Copper: guard your town and patrol your gatesSo that's basically it. she makes an appearnce at the cafe from 11 pm to 12 am on Mon.-Fri.
he is known for being cheap. you can see him when you choose tag mode. Brief main character overview:Tom Nook: owner of the "best" shop in town. HE SELLS FORGED PAINTINGS. ur fave neighbor trys to move away every 2 days after you reach the max of 8 neighbors.
later on you can visit him at the cafe from 12 pm-1:30 pm & 2:30 pm-4 pm all week longLyle: the health care insurance guy. Resetti is an annoying mole but funny. bye. Pelly: the sweet bird who works at the town hall every day from 7 am to 10 pm. you can also see him at the cafe at 12 pm-1:30 pm and 2:30 pm-4pmK.K.
you will join the HRA happy room acdamey they will rank you you need to pay off loans and morgates at the able sisters store you design stuff that you and your neighbors can wear. you can see him at the cafe from 2:30 pm-4pm on SundayRover: he is the wi fi communications main guy. then Nookingway. Overall animal crossing is a good game. Finally Nookingtons. When you first get there it is Nook's Cranny.
i got it for Christmas and can not put it down. BEWARE OF RESETTI'S ANNOYING LONG AND FUNNY LECTURES you can have up to 4 players on 1 game card you can see her at the cafe from 6 am-6:55 amPhyllis: Pelly's sister, who has a bad attitude.
Then when updated it is Nook 'N' Go. Kapp'n: when you first start the game he is driving you in a taxi he asks you questions that will detrime how you look like. once you have Nookingtons.
however she is GREAT at working and she works at the town hall everyday from 10 pm-7am she can be seen at the cafe from 9 pm-9:55 pm Sunday-FridaysResetti: He comes ONLY when you quit without saving. i think he and Redd are in some kind of plan together. That has a hair salon in it and Nook's 2 nephews work in it.Harriet: owner of the salon in Nookingtons.
you can see him at the cafe Sundays from 12 pm-1:30 pm.Redd: owner of Redd's place he comes whenever you tell Lyle for him to come. well thats my review.
This game should be played in small doses, but since things change every day in your village and different events happen on different days (and different times), it's worth peeking in to find out if something new has happened.I realize that Animal Crossing: City Folk is out now, and that most fans of AC: WW have changed to AC: CF, but still.the portability factor makes this game still a worthy addition to your DS library.
Despite the fact that AC: WW has been out for awhile now, this game still rings true to those familiar with Animal Crossing as being a very "addictive" simulation.
And age is not a factor in playing, nor gender.
There's no better way than to bring this game with you on car trips, standing in line waiting for your morning cup of coffee, or anywhere you have spare time.
The sounds are varied, with lots of music thrown in for good measure, and the "animal speak" is charming, but can grate on your nerves after awhile.
Fishing, planting trees and flowers, hunting bugs and fossils, or just hanging out in your own pad.
Although the game lacks any real "ending" to it, there's much to see and do in the village you create.
Many who have played Animal Crossing on the Gamecube will be pleased with this portable translation.Graphics aren't really stellar here, but still very colorful and adequate.
Get this game for your DS and you will have plenty to keep you occupied for months to come.
