well..hope for the best
The storyline is almost exactly the same as the first. You move away and start from scratch in a town. Since you don't have a house a friendly raccoon named Tom Nook sells you a house. There's also the part of you having no money to pay off the house to pay the mortgage so he hires you part time at his store. It's not a bad thing, since once you finish the part time job, you still have some more to pay off and your on your own to pay the raccoon and live your life.
Even though the graphics are almost the exact same from the first it's still pretty good. At times the environment is relaxing due to visuals. The design of characters, buildings, and item looks good and have a variety of items to design your house and clothes to wear .
Music is just as relaxing as visuals. There is a huge collection to choose from to put an entertain guests with in your room. But when your not in an house or building you go to the same music that can get a little boring.
Controls are good for moving the character while using tools don't seem too realistic. You do have the choice not to use the wii movement and just use the A button. It's very easy to switch by tools by just pressing right or left on control panel.
A brand new feature that is in City Folk is the city (as the name suggests). The city is not a place where you have the ability to move. The city should be consider more of a shopping mall where you buy pricey items, learn emotions that are costly and might not be worth it, or change hair color/style. You can also put a mask on your character which allows for your Mii to be the face of your character. Although if try to put an accessory on it disappears from your face.
Even though you can only control one player on your system, you can have friends come over to your town through wi-fi. But there are very few activities to do other than have contests of fishing or checking your friends houses. The city isn't a playable area during wi-fi.
The game can get quite boring at times , since of the only thing pressing you forward is to pay off the house and very little activities that can be done to earn money. This game is a more like a half step for Animal Crossing instead of a full step due to the almost the exact same thing as AC for gamecube. This game is just plain old-school
