You may have heard about this a little while back, but Nintendo intend to use their forth-coming SD Memory Card system to enhance the size of your Animal Crossing world - and here you can get some pictures of it in-action.
Instead of simply swapping codes with Tom Nook all the time, it seems you may well be able to exhange gifts over the internet via e-mail (in the "real" world), much quicker, more efficient and cheaper than doing things by post or by hand.
Who knows how far this could go...
Perhaps you'll even be able to send your town data over the 'net to another Animal Crossing player, so he can download it onto a Memory Card 59 via the SD Card-thingy, so you no longer have to worry about losing your spare memory cards in the post, or having people "borrow" them and your data, without actually giving it back.
Just imagine how many more towns you'd be able to visit with the number of Animal Crossing player increasing, by the week - and how easy it would be to just... do!
A new town for every-day-of-the-year, perhaps?
You really could find yourself playing this game for months-longer!
And, if this proves to be a success with Animal Crossing (and perhaps Phantasy Star On-line), not only would Nintendo never really 'have' to go on-line, but it could, perhaps, even benefit gamers playing the latest Mario Kart and even Zelda games.... Maybe...

I tell you what, giving away wallpaper, furniture and other things like that on NintendoVIP would work great.
Nope they don't. It would be a complete waste of time translating Animal Crossing for a European audience when the sequel will hopefully be out next year.
Animal Crossing really is far from 'all that' anyway. It's fun for a week but beyond that you'll be having to force yourself to play it by gun point. It really is very repetetive.

SNES's complete with games are so cheap on ebay nowadays, if you don't have one, buy one NOW !
Stupid numptys. Nintendo hate Europe, and I don't know why.
Maybe they didn't release the original over here, because they already had plans for this version - with the JAP and USA versions trying to gain a large enough fan base, as sort of a trial?
Animal Crossing 9the game not cards) yesterday got an official confirmation it is going to be released in Australia later this year (PAL region for those of you who don't know) so Europe are the only ones missing out.
Ah - but the original GameCube version didn't reach European shores, either, now, did it...!
How will this game NOT get an American release??
They put the time-and-effort into doing it last-time, and just look at how well it has sold since then.
People will even go to the lenghts of importing it - just because it is that-damn-good!
Almost everything Japan gets, America gets!
And with a FreeLoader, we can get it, too. :)

Ah well. Maybe they will change their mind.
Problem - Animal Crossing e+ is'nt being released outside of Japan.
