Anybody heard about the supposed announcement of Animal Crossing for Wii at E3 this year?

Yeah IGN suspect that the game will be announced and made by the end of this year...which would be be pushing it, but they might port it from the Gamcube and tweak it a little bit (Wii-mote etc). I've heard that it could be focused around an MMO though.

Anyway, I played it on the DS, I never got the whole point of the game but it was fun...apart from that damn mole

The only time i've ever played Animal Crossing it was i when a school friend's house and he let me play for a bit.

It was fun in a weird way, but never have the change to play it more than just a few minutes.

I hope they really make one for the Wii with online; visit a friend's village would be awesome.

Port it from the Gamecube? Please say you don't mean an exact port. That was just one generation ago! That would be entirely too depressing.

I demand an all-new game, even if it means waiting until next year.

I don't think it would be an 'exact' port because they would most likely improve quite a lot of stuff; graphics etc.
But at the same time it wouldn't ne massively different to that of the DS and GameCube.

I wouldn't expect the game mechanics to change dramatically. You'll still be managing your town as you interact with furry companions, I bet.

I'm just expecting A LOT more to do. More crap to collect, more furniture to obtain, and maybe an all-around larger town to explore n' whatnot.

Give me that, and I'd be happy.

I've heard there might by a city or apartment complex. That might be too radical of a change, but it's cool to think about.

Actually, I think I heard a similar rumor a few months ago. Something dealing with expanding the land you own. Like...the player can become mayor of his/her city once they've acquired enough land.

Just a rumor. I'm not buying into it yet.

I played Animal Crossing religiously for about 2 months on the GameCube. When I stopped, I really didn't understand how it kept me occupied that long. There really isn't an awful lot to it.

It is ingeniously addictive though. God knows how it works :p

I played animal crossing on the DS, it was like the most addictive game ever. There was a stage where I was like "MUST. COLLECT. PEARS!" and foaming from the mouth, but once I stopped playing it for a few days, I couldn't get back into it.

It's a damn addictive game

Scarily addictive.
