Wondering if any has the japan one and knows the answer to this, is there voice chat or is it just typing?

Nope. Text only.

figured, why dont they include it 3DS has a mic, they've done it on pokemon ds games

I guess they just figured they didn't really need it in Japan.... That could change in the international release though, who knows?

i think the only game that uses the mic for voice chat is still heroes of ruin.
it worked really good on that game so i would love to see this feature in other online games

Ya it's so much nicer to just talk but typing isn't the worst thing on the 3DS

I loved the voice chat in Heroes of Ruin. More games need to make use of it.

Local play has voice chat.

that was actually kinda funny

I personally like typing on it. Although it is a step back from Wii Speak isn't it?

Another reason to keep City Folk instead.

Actually, does Monster Hunter have it?

Monster Hunter for the 3DS doesn't have online... so, voice chat isn't applicable.

haha so true! New question can you take pictures like on city folk?

To answer your question yes. I don't have the japanese game myself but if you go youtube & look for these to youtube username's:

They both have the japanese version of animal crossing - 3ds & it's shown several times in there video's that you can defently take pictures in the game of animal crossing just like you can in nintendo dogs + cats - 3ds. Plus I have a friend on my 3ds friends list who is from Korea who has the game & sends pictures of animal crossing 3ds to me. If anyone wants me to upload them let me know. Thanx!

Happy Gaming! (^_^)

@Barbiegurl777 If you want to, then sure, maybe you can ask if the game has voice chat or not, because i'm still not sure.

Awesome! You should upload some, Im interested to see more of the game but I dont want to go youtube it because I dont want to know everything before I get it, Ive taken so many pictures on city folk, my whole family and my friends play it so its nice to be able to take pictures

In the Nintendo Direct, didn't they say that the NA version would have something extra added that they couldn't talk about?
(a girl can dream but...) Maybe they are adding voice chat.
It's just a wild guess, it's probably not true x3.
