Translation from Turtlese: If you check out the diary page, you'll see that there's a brand new entry under DS-Addicted Turtle. Go and look now, or I'll eat you! Turtle out! |
Toy Page Update | Posted by Jess on September 1, 2005 @ 2:46 PM EST | If you check out the Toys Page you'll see that we added additional info on the Animal Crossing S-series figurine sets. These sets include a house model, so go check it out! |
Animal Crossing toys | Posted by AquaDoctorBob on August 30, 2005 @ 5:39 PM EST | Jess and Lionheart have happened across some Animal Crossing-themed toys manufactured by Takara that American and European audiences might not have known existed. We've gathered up some photos and information, all of which can be found here!
From now on, to make it a bit easier to find out what's hot off the press at AXA, new and updated sections will be represented by a pitfall icon instead of the standard green dot. Nifty! |
Animal Crossing ad in Nintendogs booklet | Posted by Jess on August 25, 2005 @ 1:17 PM EST | There's really not much to say here, but if you bought the recent Nintendogs release you might have noticed that there was a two page ad for Animal Crossing DS in the back of the instruction booklet. The ad includes screenshots, and what we think must be the official box art for the game. What a tease Nintendo is! |
New Theme Contest | Posted by Jess on August 24, 2005 @ 12:52 PM EST | After a long break from theme contests, Lionheart2k4 has started up a new one on the ACForums. This time, the theme is...

Animal Crossing DS release date update | Posted by AquaDoctorBob on August 22, 2005 @ 7:49 PM EST | Earlier today, in a NOA chat, our own Jess was able to glean some information regarding AC DS's scheduled release date.
JESSICA: Taylor, do you know if Animal Crossing is still going to be released in 2005?
NOA_TAYLOR: That's what they say, Jessica
Confirming this is the fact that Nintendo has just released information detailing a number of upcoming games' release dates, Animal Crossing DS among them. The new release date is December 5th, 2005.
You can see all the listed release dates at Planet GameCube. I've also updated the countdown timer accordingly.
Edit: I neglected to mention a couple of important things. First, as you should already know, it is still possible that the date could change. Second, the same article mentions the release of a DS Rumble Pak that fits in the GBA slot while you're playing a DS game. ACDS fishing, anyone? :) |
DS Forum Open | Posted by Jess on August 22, 2005 @ 11:30 AM EST | So, if you've visited the AC Forums in the past few months, you've probably visited a forum called "The Future of Animal Crossing" which was devoted to all forthcoming versions of AC. Yesterday, we decided that Animal Crossing DS merited its own forum, apart from rumored titles such as Animal Crossing Revolution. So, head on down to the forums and feel free to have a long talk about Animal Crossing DS in its shiny new forum! |
Images abound! | Posted by AquaDoctorBob on August 20, 2005 @ 10:57 PM EST | The Animal Crossing DS Screenshots page has been updated with about 20 new AC DS images. It appears that the texture-drawing system has been redesigned from the one shown at E3 2004.
I'd also like to point out that with the AC DS release date being as uncertain as it is, the countdown timer on the right over there is merely an approximation. For those who don't feel like calculating it out, it's set to November 21st, 2005. Don't be surprised if it changes in the near future. |
Will AC DS be pushed back to 2006? | Posted by Jess on August 20, 2005 @ 9:50 PM EST | In the wake of the German Games Convention, there have been rumors that Animal Crossing DS will be pushed back to sometime in 2006 in order to develop a microphone related feature. These rumors begin to gain more credibility as a recent interview with Jim Merrick (Nintendo's European Head of Marketing) contains the following curious excerpt:
PN: What is happening with Animal Crossing, now with a 2006 release date?
JM: In Europe, it has always been 2006, so there's no change for us...
Speculations abound--just who is there a change for? Or was this simply a poor choice of words? Last we heard from NOA (at Camp Hyrule this past week) it's still slated for 2005. Here's hoping.
To see the full text of the interview with Jim Merrick, which has some interesting information on the Wi-Fi network, click here.
