    Complete bore fest. Period. Yay! you get to be a guy that makes a city with animals as your population. This game must have been made while the producers were high. Not meant for the DS whatsoever.

    I never really got into Animal Crossing on GC, but I'm addicted to the DS version... it's essentially the same game, with a few minor tweaks (using the touch screen for interface functions helps streamline things a bit, and the addition of customizable constellations is nice), but it's just much better suited to the portable format than it was to a full-scale console.

    This game is probably one of the best games I've ever played. I recommend this game to those of you that get stuck on levels too easily. Lucky for you, this game has none.

    Definitely not for everyone. It was my first DS purchase having never played the GC version, and it just doesn't do much for me. I've played a number of mmorpgs that involve amassing wealth and showing off your new gear and home to friends and strangers, so this isn't a new experience for me. The one player game may have grabbed my attention if I hadn't purchased Definitely not for everyone.

The one player game may have grabbed my attention if I hadn't purchased Trauma Center and Phoenix Wright soon after. Being a professional with little time to play games, I simply didn't have the time to check in for a a virtual birthday party or to visit a stranger's town. Had this been the only game in my library for a number of weeks, I may have forced myself to find some interest in it.… Expand

    It delievered what they said they we're going to do. You have all the things Animal Crossing brought to Gamecube ina handheld. You lose NES games but gain more to the museum, more visitors and a much easier way to visit other towns. Shooting prizes out of the sky has been very profitable and having the sunset and different weather has made for a great enviorment. A must Buy for all ages.

    Just a superb game that is going to last for years. It combines the best of its console counterpart with portability and global communication.

    for people with no lives!!! bad enough I have a ton of responsability, i am gonna take on some video game problems. plus i kinda liked the fact of the gamecube version having unlockable nes games ... this one don't. plus is boring as ever. if i had a choice, i would recommend the game cube version. or either if you have no life.

    While none of these issues hold the game back from a playability standpoint, Wild World is closer to an enhanced port than an extravagant sequel.

    Nintendo ports over the hugely addictive GameCube sim, and adds more features and online play to the DS. A definite addition to your DS gaming library.

    About living the life of a cute animal in real-time. The imaginative gameplay is as delightfully Nintendo-like as ever. Sit back and relax either on your own or with friends. [Mar 2006]
