Animal Crossing Wii at E3? News

Wii News by Ellie Gibson

9 July, 2008

It's looking increasingly likely that Nintendo will be unveiling Animal Crossing for Wii at E3 next week.

The latest evidence has appeared on the blog of Tom East, who edits Official Nintendo Magazine.

"Those of you who have read the new issue... Should already know that Animal Crossing Wii will be unveiled at the conference," he wrote. And perhaps those of you who haven't should know now too.

Meanwhile, Go Nintendo is reporting Animal Crossing Wii has appeared on a release schedule for Nintendo Norway. Apparently it's out in 2008, along with the intriguing-sounding "Wii Music/Wii Orchestra".

Of course, Nintendo's confirmed nothing so far. But their E3 press conference is on Tuesday, so there might not be long to wait.

I really doubt Europe will see Animal Crossing in 2008.

Will get something to take it's place..most probably something extremely crap while USA/JAP get all the goodness this Christmas.

If this is true, Nintendo wins.

Microsoft and Sony might as well not attend.

although the online wii integration is going to stink compared to live which is going to hinder this game

If they make it so you still have to use friend codes to visit other people I will cry.

Hopefully you can send items without 42-digit hex codes now.

To be fair, we got Mario Kart as a replacement to brawl and although to most people it's probabbly not quite as good, I wouldn't call it "crap"

It will take them 18 months to localise it for Europe.

@gingerlink - we got Mario Kart 2 weeks before the US - how long did they have Brawl before us?

Weren't they talking months ago about it being essentially a MMORPG?

Maybe it's been taking this long to arrive BECAUSE they've been localising it for Europe for a simulatanous release over all territories.

I've just stopped laughing at myself long enough to say that I very much doubt that, but you never know :)

Woot!

I'm remaining excited and positive despite the naysayers! Once they announce release dates I'm sure to have my hopes dashed. Until then though...

:))))

I'm still playing the DS version, for some inexplicable reason. And I paid off my mansion two years ago.

*looks over at the Animal Crossing figurines on his desk*

Ah. Mental.

I would be thoroughly suprised if it came out before the years end over here. Although it is something that excites me.

Now if we could just have Starfox Wii as well...
