Great Game. However if you've been a long-serving player of the GC version, there is not enough to keep you going.
However the game being both portable & online plus the new features of the game will keep even Veterans of the 1st game coming back for more.
Gameplay: Not much has changed, but that which has changed is mainly for the better.
Graphics: Great graphics for the DS and comes close to even the GC's Crossing Graphics.
Sound: Catchy up-beat tunes surround your world and with the ability once again to collect songs and play them on your own virtual sound player, gives this game excellent sound value.
Value: You are definitely getting some value here, there are so many things to do and now, while your own village has been toned down in size you can now use the Wi-Fi connection to visit anyone's village globally! Once again I must warn Old Crossing players, that having all the same features will limit time spent playing.
Overall, Animal Crossing: Wild World is recommended for players new to the franchise, however Old players should probably pick it up too, its still good fun.
