Post Edge: Animal Crossing Wii is a social networking MMO (Joystiq)

Filed under: , , , ,



Reputable European publication Edge magazine is reporting that the upcoming Animal Crossing for Nintendo Wii is indeed going the MMO route, as previously rumored by fellow Future Publishing siblings Next-Gen. "A Japanese source has confirmed to Edge that the upcoming Wii iteration of Animal Crossing is set to be a social networking MMO," reports the magazine.

No other details are known at the time, Nintendo has not provided any official confirmation. The article is found on page nine of the latest issue, which prominently features the PlayStation 3 on both the front and back covers.

Wonder if Mii integration is going to be a huge part in this. >.>

Online is the natural progression for Animal Crossing, if this is true I'd be glad Nintendo aren't wasting this oppertunity.

Probably, since the Mii Channel was made by the same team who made Animal Crossing. Besides, it gives more variety to the similar looking characters of the previous AC games.

I just figure it be a waste NOT to use them for AC Wii.
