       “Animal Crossing: City Folk” is a Wii game made by Nintendo.  It is one of their first party titles, the third in the series to be exact.  The first game came out on the Gamecube, and the second one for the DS.  One of the games unique niches is the ability to use Wii Connect 24 and the brand new Wii Speak. 

    The game is about creating your own town and character.  You can customize your characters shirt, hat, pants, anything really and make them very unique.  You can also customize your house as well as a ton of other areas of the town.  ”City Folk” as it is called implies that there is now a city.  You travel by bus to the city and visit everything from the hairdresser to furniture shops.  Part of the game is also just living: interacting with various characters, fishing, gardening, etc.  You can really use your imagination here. 

    Utilizing Wii Speak, not only can you invite other players into your town, you can now communicate with them using the new microphone attachment.  You can trade, buy, and sell items, talk and hang out, go fishing, you name it.  Now I’m sure this will use all of those much loved “Friend Codes” to connect, but I guess that’s the price we have to pay to have fun.  

    You can also hook up your Nintendo DS if you have Animal Crossing: Wild World, and trade your items from that game to City Folk.  

    This game just came out two days ago so get to it!  This laid back game looks to be great fun, relaxing fun.

That’s all for tonight city folks, goodnight.
