Nintendo Selects : Animal Crossing: Let's Go To The City (Nintendo Wii)

This game is fantastic for relaxing and always has a surprise in stall for you; the other day I found a empty gold lamp and I tried to sell it to Nook and he said it wasn't worth anything but he would put it out to recycle if I liked. I decided to hold onto it and came off about half hour later, then when I came back on this genie that looked a bit like a ghost came up to me and asked if I had seen a gold lamp lying around. I was surprised by this and then one thing led to another and he gave me a option of taking one of 3 wishes.The graphics are in the style of the DS version, although more graphical, and on this version when the villagers are talking you can interject and see what they are talking about which kind of helps to make you feel included in the whole village thing. This version also allows you to save wherever you want by clicking the pen in the top right corner which is fantastic as it was sometimes awkward in the original to have to go all the way back to your house.Also there are a lot of things to collect and if you find that you have too many Gyroid's you can take them to the guy who serves coffee and he will look after them for you. Which is fantastic and you can ask for them back at any time.Overall this game offers the ultimate relaxation and is great fun and can also be played by more than one person in the same village as there are multiple homes so that I imagine is useful for families!Worth every penny and still good fun!

Had only played the DS version of Animal Crossing before, and this was just as fun and addictive. I chose to start over rather than transfer a character from my DS, and am really enjoying it.The new additions of a salon, "shoe-shine boy" (can change shoe colour to match an outift), Gracie's store, ATMs and an official HRA office where you can view and/or have your own room displayed as the room of the month is great. Makes it easier for you to get immerced in the virtual world and change it to how you like it.Childish, yet still a great game, despite the graphics looking really childish (but somehow that adds to the fun).

I wanted get Animal Crossing : Lets go to the city (Wii) because it has more things to do on it than 'Animal Crossing' the Nintendo game.On the (Wii)game you can go to the city and buy clothes , go to the theatre and watch shows and you can go to the salon and have a makeover or have your hair done. You can attend events such as 'The Fishing Tournament', 'The Flea Market', 'The Bug Off'; these are exciting and interesting because you actually feel you are part of these events.I really love this game because it is really fun and exciting.This is my favourite Wii game.I love this game!Bethan age 10

I got this for my 6 year old and she loves it, a bit to much reading for my liking as I do have to help her to read and write often. If your child can read independently then this is obviously no issue.The game has events throughout the year and the game changes as you play, keeps it interesting I guess although it seems to exite me more then my daughter!

Very good condition as stated, it also came a couple days early which was great :) will be using them again for second-hand games.Also, the game was already restarted when I put it in my wii so it felt like I had brought a new game when starting it up.

Very good game something i can play with my 4 year old without worrying about violence etc in most games now. Also great for the boys reading skills and lots to do in the game for Dad & Son. Once again another Great game from Nintendo looking forward to the new 3DS version in June 2013 with even more features packed into the game !

It is with a heavy heart that I commit this version of my favourite gaming franchise to the depths of a 1-Star review. I honestly love the Animal Crossing series, and have played regularly since the Gamecube version was released on September 23rd 2004. The feeling of freedom, the joys of collecting and the depth of things to do all make the games a refreshingly different series.But this game is absolutely ruined for me and so many thousands of others by a poorly-implemented feature called "Animal Tracks." The developers intention was for paths of dirt to form where players had regularly walked, and had it worked it would have been a cool feature. As it turns out, it is utterly game breaking and killed any enjoyment I hoped to get out of Animal Crossing: Lets Go To The City.For whatever reason, the feature was implemented at the end of game development with minimal testing. Running increased the speed at which the grass died, and buildings, whether you visited them or not, saw grass die radially around their entrances. Contrary to popular belief, if a player ceased running, the deterioration would still continue. The edges of rivers, as a high-traffic area that the player visits often while fishing, saw fast grass death too. The result was that, within a few weeks of game time, player's towns were beginning to look ugly and bare, and within a few months the town resembled a desert rather than the verdant paradise it was when you first arrived.I say the feature is game breaking for a number of reasons. Firstly, to rectify the problem, one has to set the game clock back a number of months and continually log in and out, day by day, without moving from their front door. During this period, your town will likely become strewn with weeds, any flowers you have grown will probably die and, as you do not interact with any characters, it is possible (as happened to me) that your favourite neighbors may move away. This is game breaking because it defeats the point of Animal Crossing - to take each day as it comes and discover what's around the next corner. For a game that has Resetti the mole lambasting players who reset to go back and do things again, it seems incredible that one should have to do this just to enjoy the experience!Secondly, when playing, players like me develop a genuine fear of entering grassy areas for fear of damaging them. Thus, we keep to set routes that make the game feel much more linear, and severely damage the exploration aspect of the game. So much as chasing a bug with a net can be enough to start the Animal Tracks process, I have found.Thirdly, it penalises players for running anywhere by drastically increasing the rate at which the grass dies. Granted, this would be fine if the tracks feature did not apply to those who take the game at a slower pace, but it still does, and places like rivers, where the player would be foolish to run for fear of spooking the fish, still resemble a mud pit after a few weeks of regular playing.Fourthly, Winter in this game is not only an ugly affair where grass is absent, as snow does not settle on dirt, but if the grass deteriorates enough, parts of the game simply don't work. For example, building a snowman requires the player to roll up snow, but rolling the ball over dirt reduces it's size. If two snowballs are spread far apart with large patches of dirt between them, it can be impossible to build one. This is perhaps nitpicking, but Winter has gone from being Animal Crossing's most beautiful season to it's most ugly - all thanks to Animal Tracks.Finally, the chore of maintaining the town to prevent grass death overtakes any other pastime the player would want to undertake. Fishing? It'll damage the riverbanks. Going to the Town Hall? The grass around it will deteriorate. Planting flowers stops being a beautification scheme and takes on a joyless, protective light (as grass grows back faster under them.) Around buildings, the grass will die even if you don't visit for days. I would go to the city maybe once a week, I didn't play online so I rarely went to the Town Gates, and I'm the only player in my town. Yet the deterioration of grass around the bus stop and town gates was the worst in my village.To add insult to injury, even if you do manage to return your town to its original beauty, which can take hours of joyless, damaging time travel, the process will begin again within a matter of weeks. Nintendo rarely put a foot wrong with their major franchises, but they managed to suck all the fun out of the game here.And it really is a shame, because beneath the looming shadow of Animal Tracks there is a good game, with the most extensive collections we've seen yet, plenty of variety and a decent online mode. But when all that plays second fiddle to having to fight constantly against a mess-up of a feature implemented with little prior thought, I can't merit the game at all.If you're interested in Animal Crossing but don't want the stress of this version, I reccomend the two previous games. Otherwise, wait for the 3DS version and pray it doesn't have the Animal Tracks feature. I may sound whiney or perhaps bitter, but i speak for thousands when I say I felt downright ripped off - as if I'd wasted my time for nothing.Utterly Game Breaking. :(

Perfetto in tutto.

Llegó en perfecto estado y en la fecha prevista. Mi hija esta encantada!

piace il gioco e funziona bene

Lástima que no existía la opción de comprarlo con la consola y tuvimos que comprarla con el Just Dance 2. Mi hija está encantada con Animal Crossing.

Soddisfatto!!!
