Animal Crossing 3DS Trailer Rings a Few Bells

Swimming! That's awesome and unexpected!
I'm really liking the way this is turning out.

Love the new features...I'll need to see even more though. Fruit! Vegetables! Loads of new furniture.

Looks like Animal Crossing. It's all good.
I wants: Everything previously in Animal Crossing
I sees: Swimming, tactical bug stalking, and tall people.
AWESOME!

I so wants!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh look, there's the dock by the ocean, quaint as always...
splash!
Oh snap!

nothing but praise

Really loving the way this looks. I would get it even if it was a port of City Folk to have a handheld Animal Crossing again. I sold Wild World to my sister.

I downloaded and watched the 3D trailer on the 3DS, this looks amazing!

I loved AC:WW so I'm really looking forward to this.

would be funny if the characters could drown

Anyway, loving the new features so far!!

!!!!!!!!!!

AAAAHHHHH!!! faints

Me = excited

Don't know if I buy it, but I like the trailer.

Oooh! I love that AC video. A new Animal Crossing was my decider for getting a 3DS. Hurry, hurry, hurry!!! When is it coming out?

Kyaa!!!!!!! You can swim now!! Yay want's this so bad!!!

When he jumped off the pier, my jaw dropped! SWIMMING! That rocks!

Swimming!! Awesomeness.

I love it!

I want to get eaten by a shark!

And you can now change your pants, shoes.. I mean, it's simple, but oh so welcome and now each character will look more different. I wuv you Animal Crossing. I wonder who's the animal stalking the guy though...

I hope I can actually use my Mii and wear hats and all that unlike the Mii mask in ACCF.

There also needs to be the "Create your Furniture" feature that was supposed to be in ACCF as well as visiting towns of friends even when they are not playing themselves and their 3DS are in sleep mode.

Looks cool. I wonder if they're measuring the player's strength on the slide pad to creep/run/walk. I think they're still trying to come up with more ideas to justify it as a sequel. I like that.

@komicturtle92, I saw a picture of the animal stalking the guy over at Gamespot. It was an out of game picture (against a white background). She was carrying a clipboard & a pen! So I would guess that this new animal (a dog) is the mayor (your) secretary! Very cool.

Oh and I'm very happy about all the changes. I would say this a MAJOR step foward for AC (and not a minor one like the article above suggests). I mean come on: swimming, outdoor furniture, tents, more animal interactions, putting stuff on the walls, and more! I'm very excited. I just wish I knew when it was coming out...

I could hardly wait before...now I can't wait at all!! D: Looks amazing!

Meh. I downloaded and watched all of the e3 3DS trailers on my 3DS. With the exception of the bloodfest which is Resident Evil (not a huge fan of the FPS genre in general), Animal crossing video was the least impressive in my book. I'm also 30 and have no kids, so that's probably why a kiddie game really doesn't appeal to me. Seemingly nothing gameplay-wise that hasn't been done before. Only thing innovative about the Animal Crossing is the use of spherical worlds, Mario Galaxy style, though upon closer inspection, it appears they just took a rectangular city grid and wrapped it around a cylinder.

I think my blood pressure is now equivalent to the pressure exerted on the bottom layers of the sea.

That made me gasp more than any other trailer I've seen this year. Swimming? Furniture on walls? Slow walks for catching bugs? Absolutely awesome. 10/10 guaranteed.

So... camping and swimming huh? Always a slight upgrade, but I still need major updates to this series. I will be VERY VERY patient this time around... I need to be FLOORED before I get another AC sooner than later.

Link costume is not new. It's on City Folk.

They've added enough new features for me to be happy. Can't wait!

I love the look of all the animals but not the "human" characters.

I wish I could just play as an animal form instead.

They should also at least let us use our Miis as our character.

I like. But I'm worried the grass will die like in City Folk, just by walking around.

oh....hell.....yes I have just officially found my reason to buy a 3ds

Swimmings cool animals interacting with climate cool and having your secretery as a poodle way cool!

cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lol I like this but so far, all the new features seemed to be ripped of of that rip-off title, Magician's quest: mysterious times

Except for the new swimming. thought it would be nice if you could ride in a kart from mario kart. and get some characters like yoshi in your town

I absolutely cannot wait, this might be a reason to pick up Animal Crossing again. Did anyone else notice the beehive surrounded by flowers in frame 0:25? I'm something of an amateur apiarist in the real world, so this is especially exciting. I hope harvesting honey becomes a task!

@WhiteKnuckle me too. I hate that in city folk you can't get your grass back. Grass grows at spring so I walk very carefully and yet I barely gain any grass so I would just forget it. I hope they fix this problem in the 3ds.
