Animal Crossing: Wild World

As I type this I’m in Tag mode waiting to see if my Nintendo WiFi finds anyone online to play…so far, the playground is looking pretty lonely…

But, the game is great. All that you might have experienced in the original GameCube version, but with some great additions.

So far, differences we’ve noticed:

1. You don’t have to send fossils off in the mail to have them identified. The museum curator has been certified to id fossils and can handle the whole thing for you. Much faster and makes for early revenue generation!
2. The observatory is new - take a look through the telescope and create your own constellations. Very nice.
3. Tag Mode - but I can’t tell you what that is, because while I’ve sat there for the last 20 minutes, I haven’t actually seen anyone.
4. WiFi - it was incredibly easy to set up the Wifi to use our home wireless router. Dectected it right off and it was technically a no brainer. Now, since I haven’t actually been able to play with anyone. I’m not sure what I’ve gained by ease of set up….stay tuned.
