Product Description
If life were an endless vacation, what would you do? Go fishing, collect shells or watch fireworks with friends? Build a snowman, exchange presents with family or decorate your house for the holidays? Take a trip to the city, go on a shopping spree or visit friends from all over the globe? In Animal Crossing: Let's Go To The City, life moves at a relaxed pace, but the world brims with endless possibilities. - There's Always Something New To Do: In the living, breathing world of Animal Crossing: Let's Go To The City, days and seasons pass in real-time, so there's always something to discover. Catch fireflies in the summer, go trick-or-treating on Halloween or hunt for eggs on Bunny Day. If you're in the mood for something a little faster paced, take a bus to a new urban city area that's unique to Animal Crossing: Let's Go To The City. There you can catch a show at the theatre or check out the sales at Gracie's boutique. But if you don't show your face back home for too long, your neighbours will miss you.
- Interact With Friends: Up to four people from your household can live and work together to build the perfect town. Design clothes and patterns, write letters and post messages on the bulletin board for each other, or invite up to three friends to visit your town using Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. With the new Wii Speak microphone, it's like you're all in the same room. The microphone sits atop the sensor bar and picks up the conversation of everyone in the room to encourage a more inclusive experience.
- Get To Know Your Neighbours: The heart of Animal Crossing: Let's Go To The City is building relationships with the animals in your town as well as with other players. Befriend your animal neighbours by exchanging letters, gifts and favours. Animals can also move from town to town, bringing their memories and stories from their old towns with them. And since animals

 Son loves this game June 23, 2010
Shirley Vivier
This game was bought for my son; he is an avid fan of Roblox and he loves this game too. I've played on his instigation a couple of times, but I find it very boring and the characters annoying - however, it's not aimed at my age group! Game is quite educational as players buy and sell products, work and pay off their mortgages. Can be very absorbing for younger players.

I had AC for the DS so was quite excited to get this, and although I've been playing it since it came out in December 2008, I've been bored with it for quite a while now. Once you've paid of your mortgage and bought everything, there's nothing else to do. There are events now and then, and you can visit your friends via wifi, but even that gets a bit monotonous after a while.
I find it easy to play with just the Wii remote, you only have to point and click really, so I don't know why previous reviewers had any trouble, but you can use the nunchuck as well.
There's one big problem with the game - Nintendo put a feature in the game called 'animal tracks', but what it basically means is that your grass wears away very quickly when you walk on it. So, if you run around your town everyday, in a matter of weeks, the grass will have disappeared and your town will look like a desert. Thousands of people have complained to Nintendo about this problem, so I hope if they release another game, it doesn't have the animal tracks feature.
The way to get round this problem is to lay paths where you regularly walk, and stick to those paths, but it does then ruin gameplay a bit, because when there's snow and you want to make a snowman or there's an event, or the animals want you to play hide and seek, you have to run on the grass, which then wears it away. I don't play any of the events so that I can keep my grass, so, the game can't be played as it was intended to be.
They could have made more of the city too. You cannot go to the city with a friend who's visiting via wifi, which seems a shame. There's plenty more things I could point out, but this review would ebd up being really long. I think Nintendo rushed this game out and didn't think carefully about certain aspects of it.
Now that it's come down in price, it would be quite a good game to get if you've just bought a Wii for your kids, but the interest factor doesn't last long.

I haven't played Animal Crossing before. Because I like cute things, I bought this because of the cover and not knowing what awaits me. I didn't regret it. Although the long hours of just fishing makes me sleepy and fighthing to stay awake, I still play this game for more than a year now, restarted anew, but this time less eager to have everything since I already attained all what is to attain in my first year of playing it...anyway, I gave four stars because it's a good game for all ages.
A little town of Dreams March 7, 2010

Following from the Gamecube version but largely the same with some additional extras
Starting on a bus, with various different animals aboard you're asked a few questions, including your name and gender and of course your town name, this affects your characters appearance when finally arriving in your new home.
Populated by animals with homes scattered around the town, the basic concept is owning your first home and paying Tom Nook, the owner of Nooks Cranny the required mortgage by completing tasks at first, this is to gently ease you into the game and the towns people as you are required to meet them all.
Eventually opening up into a do anything you feel like doing game, you can fish, collect fossils, dig for things, you name it, several of which can help out the museum or the aquarium.
You have several other things to do besides paying off your mortgage and upgrading your home, such as visiting the city, bidding in auctions, planting fruit, and many little fun events that occur depending on the time of year.
Emphasis on Wifi, as you can invite friends over to your town via Wifi by means of friend codes, when a friend is in your town you can chat via the keyboard or via Wii Speak, a seperate accessory.
The graphics are cute, the music suitable, the town customisable. The game fun.
