@Sakura Hi Sakura, no there are no definitions given which was frustrating! Definitely look up some footage and see what you think. Lou (Nintendo Life)
@Detective_TeeJay thanks for your comment! I gave it a 5 because i found it disappointing and once the nostalgia wears off the flaws are really apparent/frustrating such as laziness with hit points and so on. I just feel the 3d screen could have done so much more. That said, reviews are subjective so maybe take a look on YouTube and see what you think? It's only £1.99 anyway, so if you enjoyed snake 2 it's definitely worth a gamble.
Hello everyone! Just want to say as the writer of the article this is a great discussion so far! I can't reply to all the comments but just want to say thanks everyone for your input and views. A lot of stuff to consider here, and the comments make for a great read. Louisa
@MGray haha! Yeah oops. I didn't mean to weird everyone out. But thank you. I was eager to see everyone's comments and I like to get involved in discussion. Definitely invest in AC, congrats on the new job by the way!
@Mii_duck I don't have any of those in my town! My favourites are Opal, Rory and Mabel from the Able sisters(if she counts). Also KK slider is one cool dude. True, at least you can understand the animalese they speak though.
@Mii_duck LOL no exploding helicopters! As i think i said in a previous comment, I really like that it's different to other games I play as it's a nice change and welcome change of scenery. Plus, like you, I really want to move to my town! I'm always discovering new interactions and new things each day too, and I definitely always have a laugh. Thanks for sharing your AC experience!
@Matbtz Oh wow what a great gift you bought! Ocarina of time translated to the 3DS excellently in my opinion, I have been considering playing it again! And yes, fingers crossed the NX will bring more customisation and all our AC dreams will come true! Happy Home Designer already allowed a more customisable character, so hopefully this means they are already thinking about it.
@Matbtz Funnily enough, despite all the reasons I listed, I agree with you ! I am a BIG fan of simulation games and the more customisable the better. I would have really liked if AC introduced relationships on a bigger scope. If i talk to my townspeople more than twice in one day they get sick of me! This is definitely something I hope will be introduced in future. ps: your mum plays AC? How cool!
@Megumi Thats a shame! It happens though, I have tired of some popular games quickly and wondered what the fuss was all about. It's all trial and error!
@Mr_Zurkon I have yet to play Rune Factory. I played Fantasy Life non stop for a few weeks and then dropped it and never went back. I must start playing it again!
@MetaSmasher Its a bit of a slow builder. When I first got New Leaf it was a bit different for me as someone who normally likes games a little more fast paced. I use it as my 'calm' game now and am always playing it alongside others to balance it out. It can be addictive though, I don't even know why, it just draws you in!
@DoctorOverbuild oh please don't mention amiibo festival it broke my heart. I didn't really rate Happy Home Designer either. You're right, the games take a long time to write and translate, plus soooo much gameplay. I would prefer to wait for a better game then get another disappointment!
@ap0001 a demo is a great idea. It's definitely not for everyone and remains expensive due to its popularity. Maybe watch some play throughs online or borrow from a friend to get a feel for it? Or start with an older(cheaper) title in the series. Let me know how you get on!

@Stu13 Yep! I have never played the mobile version, but was very confused as to why this feature was left in - Louisa (Nintendo Life).

@Jaredfrogman oh wow sounds like it was made for you! I love completing a dinosaur in the museum, and nothing will ever top catching a shark!

Re: Feature: Five Reasons Why We Love Animal Crossing
@PikminFan22 I remain hopeful, but unfortunately i think amiibo festival was the "best" we are gonna get :/
Re: Feature: Five Reasons Why We Love Animal Crossing
@CTMike it's a fantastic game!
Re: Feature: Five Reasons Why We Love Animal Crossing
@PikminFan22 OOOH I really hope there will be one for the NX!
Re: Feature: Five Reasons Why We Love Animal Crossing
@Blue_Blur oh no! :')

Re: Feature: Five Reasons Why We Love Animal Crossing
@Manjushri I had a similar experience. New Leaf is the first one I have fully immersed myself in. And I'm still learning too!

Re: Feature: Five Reasons Why We Love Animal Crossing
@Nik-Davies didn't wanna rant on for too long! There are plenty more though
Re: Feature: Five Reasons Why We Love Animal Crossing
@DoctorOverbuild if they could somehow combine the two in a new title it would be perfection!
Re: Feature: Five Reasons Why We Love Animal Crossing
@HyrulianOfHyrule same! I just don't want it to be mobile..

Re: Review: Asdivine Hearts (Wii U eShop)
@Action51 thank you for the feedback! Yes, definitely worth a go and a good game to alternate with StarFox to keep you sane!

@LemonSlice heeeheee
Re: Review: Asdivine Hearts (Wii U eShop)
@Finntendo Stardew Valley is awesome! But yes, come back to Nintendo games Completely agree about the moving speed, it's very annoying!
Re: Review: Asdivine Hearts (Wii U eShop)
@Parkour_LMan Should have known that existed somewhere in Anime already!
