Begorrah! North American and European Animal Crossing: City Folk players get official DLC
The North American and European Animal Crossing: CIty Folk free downloadable content famine is over! Nintendo has decided that the best way for AC:CF players to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day is to dole out free Shamrock Hats to all.
It’s incredibly easy to obtain your own Shamrock Hat. First, connect your Wii to the internet. It’s a fairly easy process – just have your WiFi connection’s security code handy and start the connection wizard under the internet section of the Wii Settings menu. Then, set WiiConnect24 to on for your system. Finally, log in as your character between March 17 and 30, 2009. Pete the mailman will be waiting your character’s front door with a very special letter from Nintendo!
There’s only one Shamrock Hat per character, so don’t expect Pete to come around multiple times with a freebie. It is catalog orderable – you can pick up a spare at your local Nook’s…
Animal Crossing comes to the Wii as Animal Crossing: City Folk
Animal Crossing is definitely coming to the Wii, and it looks a lot like the DS incarnation, Animal Crossing: Wild World. Animal Crossing: City Folk was unveiled today (July 15, 2008) by Nintendo at E3. The game is going to be similar to previous incarnations, acting as a sort of life sim, but will have plenty of Wii-exclusive features. It will be out Holiday 2008.
The City Folk portion of the title comes from the new city area that is only in Animal Crossing: City Folk. Players will be able to take the bus to the city to shop, check out sales, watch a movie or get a makeover at Gracie’s boutique.
Reunite with anthropomorphic Animal Crossing friends at E3 2008
It is official! The latest update to the E3 2008 games listing confirms it. Animal Crossing Wii is scheduled to appear at E3 2008. Again, like Kid Icarus Wii, it is still unknown what shape or form the Animal Crossing Wii presentation will take.
The E3 2008 listing for Animal Crossing Wii does provide some new, definite information about the game. It reveals that it will be developed by Nintendo EAD, will make use of WiiConnect24 and has already been rated “Everyone” by the ESRB. Unfortunately, the listing doesn’t answer the loaming MMO questions speculators have had about the game.
