Holy crap! Yes!
This is the only game that's mere information, could tear me away from the Pokemon BW2 launch.

 

[KingVamp]

So many Directs.

Unfortunately, this isn't my type of game. :/

 

[Gahars]

I can't say I'm much of a fan of the games. They series isn't awful, I guess, but it's certainly nothing worth jumping out over.

I think this will be one Nintendo Direct worth skipping out on. I mean, I always skip them and just get the detail afterwards, but this time, I mean it.

 

[Hyro-Sama]

Another Nintendo Direct? This is beginning to become tantamount to when Square-Enix did their countdown for a shit iOS port of TWEWY.

 

[nachoscool]

Dude this is so awesome! Now all we need is the North American one.

 

[Fear Zoa]

FUCK YEA!
Seriously though about time, they sure did drag their feet with this one.

 

[Clarky]

ain't my bag but the missus wiill be on cloud 9 with it

Meh, I don't really like Animal Crossing. I tried WW for a few hours, but I just don't see what people like about it. Pretty much all you do is talk to animal creatures and do mundane work to pay off Tom Nook. I can do that in real life, thank you very much.

Well, this game IS somehow like a life simulator.

ABOUT TIME!
I actually have my hopes up for new methods of on-line play. I hope you're able to publicly host your town on-line and have strangers visit rather than just friends.
Also the chatting system in AC:WW really needed work.

So many different Nintendo Directs!

I'm looking forward to this. I'm not crazy for Animal Crossing but the games are still pretty fun.

 

[jalaneme]

what is this new "jump out" animal crossing game? this is new to me.

 

[jrk190]

YES! I'm so happy! It's about time this happens! This is the main reason I actually bought my 3DS! I finally know what to do with that birthday money... Those good grades I had? Meh, who needs 'em, I've got Animal Crossing!

Already seen it.

The video is for those who haven't seen it. I'm sure some have yet to.

Perhaps you could put the video on the OP?

I would love to watch the youtube vid, but I don't understand Japanese, and there aren't English subtitles available.
