Oh! When I was looking around, about the same time I found out that the Wii will have the Speak Channel, I found out about Animal Crossing: City Folk for the Wii would be coming out soon! It looks really interesting, since it will take advantage of the “Speak Channel,” and it will be coming out with the new urban city area. It looks pretty interesting, since I really enjoy the other Animal Crossing Games.

The one thing that caught my eye is the new urban city area. You can visit Gracie in this area, and you can go to the theaters. I’m not sure of the other things availible in the urban city area just yet, hopefully more information will come out soon.  I am kind of curious if Gracie’s boutique will be replacing the “Abel Sisters” because I don’t want them to go! From the video, the salon will also give you makeovers and other options besides just haircuts now. Apparently the makeover is actually a “Mii Makeover” and you get the face of a Mii, which looks pretty creepy on your AC character.

You can now trick-or-treat for Halloween, and Easter is “Bunny Day” in AC, and you can now hunt for eggs. I’m not sure on all the details yet, but the ones I’ve read already make it seem pretty interesting. Besides the parts mentioned above, most of the rest of the features are like the previous Animal Crossing games, which is good and bad. Of course, since it’s on the Wii, there are more possibilities, like the Speak Channel allowing you to talk to people through Wi-Fi. There isn’t a specific release date yet, but it is coming this holiday part of the year. So don’t forget to ask for it for Christmas! (I might ask for it too ^_^)
