Topic: Animal Crossing (GameCube) - worth having?

Posts 1 to 4 of 4

A shop near where I live has several quite cheap copies of Animal Crossing on the GameCube. I already have Let's Go To The City on Wii (or City Folk as it's called in the US) which I know is very similar to the DS one. I know the GameCube one will be pretty similar as well, but is there enough differences between the two to justify owning both? I'm quite tempted to get it, but I don't want to waste my money.
Thanks in advance!

The first one is the best. Some of the features from WW and CF aren't present in it, as they hadn't been invented yet (like no hybrid flowers, watering cans, or slingshots to name a few). If you like oddball games where characters say random, off the wall things to you though and games where there's always some sort of surprise, GC Animal Crossing is the best.

When I close my eyes, I see pixilated blood.

In Gamecube Animal Crossing you have 16 original NES games, they would cost 8000 pts on Virtual Console.
Two of them aren't even available there: Golf and Clu Clu Land D (Famicom Disk Version).

Also Gamecube Animal Crossing comes with a Gamecube Memory Card 59 for free.

Also Gamecube Animal Crossing has several features like the Animal Island Connectivity (GBA) that are not present in any other AC games.

Tough call!

The GameCube version has some awesome features in not in the other versions... but also has fewer things to collect and is bothered by some limitations that got fixed in later versions. The biggest reason I don't play the original version anymore is because typing and inventory management are slow and annoying compared to what the Wii/DS versions allow.

Generally speaking, I don't think it's worth buying if you already own the game on another system.
