Animal Crossing comes to the Wii as a sequel to the original GameCube and DS versions. Featuring a host of new features such as improved online play, including a new voice chat option through the use of Wii Speak, a city for players to visit, and new holidays.
Overview
Animal Crossing: City Folk contains gameplay familiar to fans of the series. Featuring tasks such as completing jobs for villagers, fishing, catching bugs, digging up fossils, and designing your house, City Folk retains all of the fun and quirkiness of the Gamecube and DS games. City Folk does away with the flat world style featured in the original console version on the Gamecube, using instead the spherical world setup of Animal Crossing: Wild World. In keeping with the style of Wild World, the game also contains all of the items, fish, insects, and villagers seen on the DS. Online play is returning allowing you to invite three other friends into your village, but this mode is still limited by friend codes like the DS title.New to the series is online voice chat, made possible through the use of Nintendo's new speaker device, the Wii Speak. The Wii Speak sits on top of the Wii Sensor Bar and picks up audible sounds from the entire room, allowing everyone in a room to speak as opposed to a single player wearing a headset.
City Folks largest addition is present in its title, a large city that players can visit. The city can be accessed by taking a bus from the players town, and it contains various stores run by well-known Animal Crossing characters such as Redd, Katrina the psychic, Gracie, Shrunk, and Harriet the hairdresser. The city also contains an auction house run by a gyroid named Lloid and a street cart run by Phineas the sea lion.
Mii Support
Nintendo Miis also make an appearance in Animal Crossing: City Folk. Players are able to travel to Harriet's salon in the city and ask for a makeover, at which point they can choose one of their Miis to wear as a mask.DS Support
Animal Crossing: City Folk contains a new feature called DS Suitcase, which allows players to transfer their character and furniture catalog from Wild World to City Folk. No actual furniture will be transferred between games but the player's entire catalog is transferred and can be repurchased at Tom Nook's store. This feature is also used to transfer your character to other players system when visiting their towns.Online play
Introduced to the series in Wild World for the DS, online play has once again been included in City Folk, and the mode doesn't seem to have changed much during its jump from handhelds to home consoles. Up to four players can interact together in a single town, as long as all four have exchanged friend codes beforehand. This process means that in order to interact with one another, players must have exchanged friend codes, preventing players from interacting with strangers, something Nintendo seems keen to avoid.

How To Get Rich In Animal Crossing Games
I got ACWW on the day it came out and have hardly ever gone a day without doing the rounds of my town, watering flowers, checking my residents etc. I have the biggest house, both crowns, a throne and 5,000,000 bells in the bank. This guide will probably help to do well on the Wii version, when released. This guide contains the method I used to earn millions of bells in Animal Crossing Wild World.
CAUTION: Time and effort are required!
