Any reviews yet? I am planning on a Disney trip at the end of this year so I won't be buying a 3DS just to have this new version. Just wondering what the early consensus is.
Being the geek that I am, I DID buy a 3DS XL just for this game.
I do wish I would have waited just a couple more weeks for when they announced the US release of the special Animal Crossing 3DS XL bundle. I would have purchased that for sure. But having had mine a few weeks, I wasn't going to shell out that money again. At least mine is red and black so matches Disney.
So far, I am very impressed. Without a doubt, the best version yet. There is so much new stuff that it's hard to list without going on forever.
You you now buy pants, shirts, tank tops, shoes, and socks, so we are no longer running around pant-less.
You are now the mayor and have a personal assistant to take care of everything for you. You can launch community projects for fountains, bridges, street lights, etc. and the entire town donates to the project.
As mayor, you can also put into effect ordinances based on your style of play. Early bird, night owl, beauty town or wealthy town.
The early and late ones are for people who can only play late or early so the stores stay open later and the villagers are active later. The reverse is true for Early bird. For Beautiful town, everyone helps water flowers so you don't have to. There there is the Wealthy ordinance where everything sells for higher prices when you are selling.
And there is an island to explore that has 64 tours you can take, either alone, or with friends. Lots of games to play rare stuff to buy.
And that's only the tip of it. There is so much more to do on this new version. I see myself playing it for many years to come.
