A whole new world has opened up on your DS, and it's full of talking animals that want to be your friend. Read Review
Players move into a living, breathing world inside the Nintendo DS...and then invite their friends to visit from anywhere on earth. In Animal Crossing: Wild World, the sequel to the popular Nintendo GameCube game, players and up to three friends can hang out in the same village and interact in real time -- either through wireless LAN or over Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. Players can visit a friend's village from thousands of miles away. The touch screen makes item management and world navigation a breeze. Typing letters and designing patterns are now just stylus strokes away. Days and seasons pass in real time, so whether players want to decorate their homes, catch bugs or fish, collect brand-new items like hats and sunglasses or just chat with the wild and wacky characters in their villages, there's always something to do.

You'll quickly become familiar with the personality quirks of your town's inhabitants, taking note of their relationships with each other and perhaps even becoming a bit down if they move out. It's not just the townsfolk that are demanding, either. There are plenty of other chores and special events to keep you busy for a good, long time. Read More »

A "community simulator" (as Nintendo likes to call it) that created a living world where hours and seasons passed in real time even when the game was off. Animal Crossing was wildly addictive, and thanks to a design that introduced new things to do every month, made sure that you were entertained for at least a year. Read More »
One of the more eagerly anticipated DS titles is Animal Crossing DS, the sequel to the hit GameCube game is on display at E3, and it's fully playable online. We were able to take it for a brief test drive and check out how it works. Since the game is meant to be played over several months, it's heard to really get into the game during a five minute demo, but we gave it a go. Read More »
