Wii Animal Crossing: City Folk

[Yurirem]

Turning this into the friend code share thread, my original post on the subject will be here:

Spoiler:

The next Animal Crossing will be here next month for the Wii. I'll be looking quite forward to it. This post could serve as a placeholder for the friend code exchanges when the game is released. For now, though, let's have a good old fashion discussion about one of the greatest games ever!

Ripped from GameFAQs:

Spoiler:

Release date currently stated by Nintendo: November 16th, 2008.

Here are the features to City Folk that have been confirmed:

1) You have the ability to use WiiSpeak, a device used so you can communicate with others during online play. It acts like a speakerphone and picks up all the sound in your room. It will be sold separately at $29.99.
2) There is an auction house to bid on items and sell some as well, run by a talking gyroid named Lloid.
3) Hills and cliffs in the game environment!
4) You are transported to the city by a yellow bus, driven by Kapp'n. Bus station lies next to the town gate.
5) Town gate is still the same.
6) Real life holidays are back, such as Easter (Bunny Day) Halloween, New Years...
7) You can send letters to the Wii Message Board through town hall, can also send to friends.
8) Gracie has her own store in the city. Named Gracie Grace. Run by someone named Labelle.
9) Harriet's hair salon resides in the city as well.
10) HRA building in the city with Lyle supposedly in charge.
11) Tom Nook has the same old shop and you can upgrade it as well.
12) Able sisters shop is back. 8 designs can be added same as previous games.
13) You can use your Mii as a face for your character (done in the hair salon run by Harriet).
14) Katrina is returning.
15) Museum is back, with catching bugs and fish still in the same. Digging up fossils is also back.
16) K.K. Slider is back.

19) This game uses the capabilities of WiiConnect 24.
20) There is room for 10 neighbors in your town and possibly more.
21) The back and front of shirts are different.
22) New clock and menu.
23) There is a "shoe-shine guy." Confirmed that if he is payed in bells he will change the color of your shoes to match your outfit.
24) There is a bin to throw away items.
25) Basic tools are all back: watering can, timer, net, fishing rod, net, axe,slingshot, and shovel.
26) Confirmed fruit: pears, apples, oranges, cherries, peaches (most likely all original fruits are returning)
27) You can bid on your friends items in the auction house through online. They must be on your friends list.
28) Each individual in their town gets their own house. 4 files/4 houses maximum. Houses are scattered around town in a random location.
29) There is a movie theater in the city which is run by Dr. Shrunk. He charges you 800 bells for the entrance fee and inside you watch a film which teaches you a new emotion that cannot be deleted. Emotions serve the same purpose as previous games.
30) You can build snowmen in the winter.
31) Constellations are back.
32) HRA Building in the city allows you to check rankings of people with the most HRA points around the globe, and you can see the score of those on your friends list.
33) You can send letters to people's cell phones and email.
34) The Bonus Points system is still used when purchasing items from Tom Nook.
35) Town flags are back.
36) The maximum files you may have per town is 4, along with the max of 4 people total in someone's town during online play.
37) You can still communicate to others through the keyboard from Wild World. Keyboard has a different design this time around.
38) No motion sensing controls used in gameplay such as fishing and swinging your axe. Can be used for walking or running around town though.
39) New menu still holds 15 items.
40) Nook and Ables are not next to each other, though still both in your town.
41) You can take screenshots in-game and send them to other people.
42) There is an ATM machine in the city.
43) You can carry 9,999,999 bells.
44) Maps for your town are generated randomly.
45) You can switch between tools by using the D-Pad.
46) Villagers now walk around in stores, where you can also talk to them.
47) There is now a personalized camera for you to use when navigating throughout the game. More details needed.
48) 1up spotted an option in the menu called "DS Suitcase" which created speculation that this could be used to transfer items from Wild World into City Folk.
49) Resetti is back. He can be spotted on a sidewalk behind two orange cones on certain days.
50) If you point your WiiMote at the bottom of the screen, a bar will appear where you are able to access your fishing log and other basic things without going to your inventory.

Real events coming back is yay.

To get the ball rolling I'll display a suggested format to post your information while posting my own. Same deal as all other WiFi games, you gotta give them your info, and they have to give you theirs to interact.

[Myrrh]

I should be getting this and my Wii for my Birthday.

 

[JP]

Maybe I'll force someone to buy this for me for Christmas!

 

[Crumpet]

I love animal crossing games. Makes me want to get a wii again.

 

[Halifirien]

I'll get it eventually. I like the games, but I kinda feel like I've played them to death and this doesn't seem to be adding enough new things to really fire me up about it. My sister's kids will like it, which more than justifies the purchase for me.

 

[Yurirem]

Bumping to get the friend code swapping started.

 

[Audino]

Animal Crossing 4tw. Buy it and get some friend codes!

 

[Valcristiel]

Was tempted to buy this the other day......

Planting trees was so damn fun *_*

 

[Eiffel]

Lovin' this game even more than the original. Such a carefree experience.

[Makelith]

I've been playing it for a few days now, but i still haven't figured out what the whole time traveller is about in this thread. Someone care to explain?

 

[Gatttsu]

Time travelers are people who change the clock on purpose to make bells faster or do other things in the game that would normally take a day or so to do. As useful as it sounds, it can really ruin your town, weeds grow really fast and you'll miss certain things like fossils and fish this way as well. The message board in town generally gives away how much time traveling someone has been doing.

 

[Yurirem]

Pretty much what Gattsu said. I did my share of time traveling in Wild World, and noted that going backwards in time doesn't carry any consequences since you're technically not going forward. If you reset it to your real time though it *will* go forward, so expect some weeds if you went back far.

I finally hung out with some friends last night and they were kind enough to share their apples, oranges and pears with me! So now I have all those, including peaches. If anyone could spare a coconut I'd be much obliged. ;D

 

[Myrrh]

I'll be getting this one tuesday.

Added you both to the OP and my friend roster. Don't be strangers now!

I now have all fruits including the elusive coconuts. I also give gifts to people, lotsa gifts.
