LATEST EDIT

ALTHOUGH IT IS ESTIMATED DO NOT REMOVE AS IT IS IN LINE WITH WHAT NINTY HAVE SAID THNXX. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.37.150.8 (talk) 11:39, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

Furniture decoration?

It says on the Animal Crossing wiki, (which doesn't, honestly seem too reliable) that you will be able to decorate furnature in this game. I haven't heard this anywhere yet and I can't track down any of the authors to find out where this fact comes from. Can anybody confirm/deny/give more info on this? -AtionSong 21:55, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

-I believe that came from a Katsuya Eguchi interview. Based on the interview, it was just discussion of the idea - not concrete evidence that it will be a feature in the game. - 4.154.88.12 22:44, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

Release date

I removed the EGM release date info claiming it to be Fall 2007. Over on the Smash Bros. Brawl page, the editors decided it wasn't reliable enough, so for consistancy, I removed it here too. Please do not put up tentative dates without a source confirmed by Nintendo. 199.126.137.209 18:50, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

Do not claim to do edits that I had already done.

Someone put that the game would be released in late September. I'd like to know where you found that because everywhere I've seen it says that it will be released in Japan first and it doesn't seem to be coming out soon. 68.34.249.35 20:57, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

I cited a link to a page on nintendo.com for the release date of November 16th, 2008 Johnnywalterboy (talk) 05:16, 16 July 2008 (UTC)

Miis

In the Wii Channels article, it states that this game will use Miis for the main characters, but I don't see anything about it in this article. Someone in the know should take action. --Brandon Dilbeck 00:23, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

The Wii Channels article no longer says this. --Brandon Dilbeck 00:39, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

2007 Release Date

It has been revealed at a NoJ conference with retailers that Animal Crossing will be coming out in Japan in 2007. There are several reports confirming this. Why does this keep getting reverted from the main article? Thores 02:17, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

Because it isn't referenced. Reference it and it can stay. Cipher ^{(Talk to the hand)} 19:37, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

Since then it has been cited within the article, but the release date consistently still gets deleted. Does the deleter think the citing is insufficient (I don't see why it would be), or does he just not notice this has taken place? Thores 23:49, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

We need to put that as the Japan release date, as most games aren't released at the exact same time, and there is no confirmed North American Release P.Shack 00:44, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

Adding lots of "TBA"s is unhelpful; in any case, the use of "TBA" is deprecated. --Mel Etitis (Talk) 09:36, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

See also MySims?

I belive that these games are too difforent to be linked. Just because their both sims dose not mean that they are simmilar. 75.161.153.11 13:11, 8 June 2007 (UTC)

They're both "life simulators" for the Wii, which is why I presume the link is there. After reading descriptions of both games, they do sound quite a bit alike in premise. -- MisterHand 13:27, 8 June 2007 (UTC)

And, they aren't Sims. (rct2guy 21:40, 9 June 2007 (UTC))

I'm pretty sure he meant "simulations" when he said "They're both sims..." ↑^Chrona_Mew↓ ‎^~Talk 00:53, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

Animal Crossing Wii 'mentioned' in Operations Manual.

I've added a sentence at the end of the article regarding a mention of sorts of the game in the Operations Manual. If anyone is against my addition, feel free to remove it. If anyone is concerned about the validity, go check a manual yourself. KaelinCadence 22:58, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

Specifically, you can see the word Animal and the logo of Nook's on page 29 of at least one version of the English manual. --Damian Yerrick (talk | stalk) 21:11, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

Possible MMO

According to this source, Animal crossing Wii could be an MMO game. I think this should be mentioned somewhere in the article. Any suggestions as to how? --Filovirus 23:24, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

The problem is that it's a rumor. We should refrain putting it in the article unless Nintendo confirms it.Dengarde ► Complaints 23:52, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

Animal Crossing as an MMO

The G4 site said Edge Magazine doesn't usually get stuff like this wrong and usually has a lot of proof to back something up like this I would give you a link but the g4 site isn't working right now. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mantyxc (talk • contribs) 12:33, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

• Yeah, I was on ACC, and it's been announced by a bunch of different people. (rct2guy 03:56, 28 October 2007 (UTC))

Joystiq seems to have confirmed it...

Hey there. Joystiq is reporting the Animal Crossing MMO as a fact now. Is this a good enough source for it to be included in the article? --Filovirus 16:07, 11 November 2007 (UTC)

I think what we are all waiting for is official conformation. It is probably right though.--76.199.162.92 00:37, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

Official Website?

I don't know if this is noteworthy or not, but when you go to "acwii.com", it brings you to Nintendo's page. Does this confirm the title "AC:Wii"? Just thought I'd bring this up. walkingonthesun (talk) 02:57, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

It seems that this is unofficial. Performing a WHOIS check on the domain[1] says that the registrant is The Bell Tree which is an Animal Crossing fansite. --Super Shy Guy Bros.Not shy? 23:40, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

Ah, alrighty. walkingonthesun (talk) 02:57, 19 December 2007 (UTC)

What happened?

The article is gone. Why? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fintan29 (talk • contribs) 19:08, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

It doesn't look like anybody set up this article the bomb. What specifically is gone about it? --Chester@Picken (2620-8829-0820) 23:09, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

Club Nintendo Calender

I removed some info about a December launch time, a piece of info that was derived from a Club Nintendo calender. Just for clarification's sake, the calender says nothing about the Animal Crossing Wii release date. As I understand it, the December release time frame was inferred from the fact that Animal Crossing is used as a theme for that month and that Mario Kart is the theme for the month of April (Mario Kart Wii launches April worldwide). This pattern does not hold up to much scrutiny, as January has Mario Galaxy as its theme. If my reasoning is wrong, or if there's some other pertinent info that Club Nintendo (or anyone else for the matter) released, feel free to correct me. Entitled (talk) 03:51, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

June 27

IGN has this game listed under a 27/6/08 release date. IGN is a reliable source so it should be added. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.121.102.73 (talk) 12:30, 15 April 2008 (UTC)

Wrong. In addition to the fact that it's already June 30th, why would there be barely any information on a game that would be released in two months? You'd think we'd at least have a screenshot, right? Plus, game sites/stores often list fake release dates to keep users/customers entertained. Sincerely, Thrashmeister [ U | T | C ] 17:53, 30 June 2008 (UTC)

North America

Couldn't we already put NA 2008. It's pretty obvious that this game will be released in NA. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.61.222.72 (talk • contribs)

Unless something is officially announced from a reliable source (Nintendo as one example), it can't be listed. RobJ1981 (talk) 19:41, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

Would IGN be a reliable source?

IGN currently has AC:Wii as released on December 31, 2007 in Japan, so probably not :P. Entitled (talk) 21:12, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

stratagy wiki

stratgy wiki has a relese date. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.71.82.91 (talk) 00:38, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

Citation Copy

citations 1 and 7 pretty much same thing. just wanted to let you know. 74.13.109.246 (talk) 01:45, 29 June 2008 (UTC)

I ref name=-ified it. Thanks for pointing it out. --Damian Yerrick (talk | stalk) 15:07, 29 June 2008 (UTC)

Official E3 Website

The Person who put up that it was "Officially Announced" at the E3 Website is wrong. That is not the Real E3 Website. That's acculy a website from the "UGO Networks". The Real Website is Here: http://www.e3expo.com/ —Preceding unsigned comment added by Alexq1350 (talk • contribs) 04:11, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

I removed the line about unofficial announcements as IMO it's speculation. Entitled (talk) 07:54, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

More Info.

I just checked G4's thefeed website and it had alot of info on the game for E3, or something like that. My computer sucks so I really can't do anything right now but if somebody could check their sources and put them in the article it would be great.Thanks a bunch dudes.Zabbethx (talk) 22:38, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

Picture

What is with the picture used on the article? It looks like someone was playing on paint and pasted the Animal Crossing Logo. I think it should be removed and we should wait for box-art to be released. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.243.108.87 (talk) 19:27, 13 July 2008 (UTC)

It's a picture of text, and under US law (see commons:Image:PD-textlogo), such a picture isn't copyrightable unless the text itself is copyrightable. A homemade logo created from the non-free GameCube or DS box art would not pass Wikipedia's criterion 4 of already having been published. --Damian Yerrick (talk | stalk) 14:13, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

Wouldn't the logo shown at Nintendo's E3 conference be useable? If someone found a good enough picture/screenshot, at least.74.13.113.108 (talk) 17:34, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
