Roommates in Animal Crossing?

Posted by dkidwell on December 28th, 2005 — Posted in Animal Crossing, Nintendo DS, parenting

One of the little critters in my village in the new Animal Crossing: Wild World mentioned that you can have roommates in your house. Sounds like you can have up to 3, and you get them at the Civic Center. Curious – that’s not an aspect of the old Game Cube version.

The one thing about the AC 1.0 that really did seem constraining was the fact that multiplayer on the Gamecube meant 4 different folks could have a character in the same city. That’s not quite multiplayer, more like, multi-account. We did have family rules – always do your fair share of weeding when you play, chip in and plant some flowers, etc. The kids used to send me cards and presents in game – things they knew I was collecting. Those first in-game letters from my son, who was 9 at the time, were very precious.

It’ll be curious to see how the DS version goes…

Well, he just caught our first….octopus! Wonder how many bells we’ll get for that….
