It doesn't come out until October anyway.
Yeah I heard it was. I would like to order but I am currently out of funds because I can't hold all of these games.
We need to be able to purchase a whole miniature town.
Yeah, but who knows what expenses I may have in October. All these June orders were made months in advance without giving it too much thought and now bam they are all here.
Did he review Uncharted saying that RTS fans may hate the game and put a 67 to go with it?
Ingrain the layout of my town into my mind.

Very casually exploring the town. Learning where the nooks and crannies are, seeing who I have living here, just generally visiting everything for the first time and saying hello. And then probably some relaxing sea shell collecting to make a few bell and buy whatever tool they have up that day.

I'm looking to purchase this game for my sister, of all things. She's a huge fan of Animal Crossing, and I'm glad to see that she'll be able to play Animal Crossing wherever she can go. I'm not that too into Animal Crossing as a gamer. Perhaps it's time to try it via the family Wii.
All these years the Wii has been in the living room, I've never sat to play the Wii, aside from very short sessions with Wii Sports.

How does everyone intend to spend their first day?
I'm just going to attempt to earn a lot of cash and i'll visit people's towns. I mean, over 80 friends! Guaranteed to be a open town!
Also, anymore people from Europe who hasn't added me, PM me.
I will do everything. Really though, that question almost scares me. There are so many things I'll want to do! How will I ever choose what to do first?!?
Actually, I'll probably try to memorize my rocks ASAP for dat
gem rock
Dig up every fossil, find the money rock and open my town while I do stuff.How does everyone intend to spend their first day?

Thanks. Can I get your FC?
I've been lurking this and the previous thread for ages now, and all of you got me so hyped up, I've never played an AC game before but it looks so amazing.
I had the opportunity to purchase AC City Folk for 9$AU, but passed since some of you didn't want to ruin the hype by playing the previous games, which is a stand I can agree with, I kinda regret not getting it now though =(.
OT: Just got approved, and first post had to be on AC, was actually stressing I would get approved when the game died.

It sure will be! There's really no bad starting point.
Some of us have some dislike for City Folk in here, but it's not really that the game is bad or anything, especially for a newcomer. (it's perfectly fine for that) It's more that it was just disappointing in terms of being lazy and offering few new features in comparison to the previous versions. At least, that's how I feel.
Congrats on approval.

Hah so many people are just getting approved then posting first in this thread! Yeah City Folk was okay, but New Leaf will be fantastic.

Added you!
I will be exploring and then plan out all my future projects.
There is no barrier for entry so joining now is as good as ever.

Also, for the 4459th time I've said this, the game seems built for portable play in short bursts.
I agree. Find console AC really hard to get into. Prefer handheld by a longshot!

The ability to just shut my 3DS up and open it again later to resume from where I was is godly.
Much improved over my City Folk ritual, which was: switch TV to correct channel, find Wiimote which has become hidden under a cushion, align sensor bar because it fell off, go through Wii's boot and channel selection, watch City Folk load, look at desert town and get depressed.

If only I could play in short bursts.
I'll probably try to get my house as soon as possible so I can enable StreetPass from the very first moment.
Then I'll probably pay a visit or two to the tropical island and try that online minigames, probably the feature I'm most excited about.
There is a difference? I always played all the AC in long bursts
Also easier to boot up a 3DS than a Wii.

Yep, press start to save.
Also, finally a "save and continue" option was implemented.
peanutbutterlatte

Yeah, ever since the DS game. There wasn't in the Gamecube version, you had to go all the way back to your house. It's a real ballache.
FearMyWrench

Yes, you can save with Select or Start anytime you want. Even better, this version brings back the Save & Continue option which has been missing for a little while. (only in the GC game)
... I just realized I called 11 years "a little while".

planning out my town, talking to villagers, making money, also will socialize with gaf. it will be a special day
Also, the grass worn down little more everytime you boot up your town

But you did have to go all the way back to your Gyroid buddy to Save & Continue. That's pretty cool though, I think with the original DS I often accidentally hit the "power" button, being right above the D-Pad. A Save & Continue function on Wild World would have probably made that sting less >.<

As someone who stopped paying attention after the GC/DS animal crossing games, what does this game have that the ones in my collection don't?

There's a list of new features in the OP, but most prominently the "hook" of this one is that you are The Mayor of the town, meaning you can build community projects, and overall have more things to do. They've just added so many little additions, like being able to choose your town layout and where your house is, that it just all equals a much richer gaming experience.
In NL, 10.

Do we still have to do jobs for Nook at some point... introducing yourself to everybody was such a pain, but I'll sort of miss it!
