I’ve been umming and aahing about the Wii version of Animal Crossing, mainly because it looks exactly the buggering same as the last two. And the reason it looks the same as the last two? Because it’s insanely cute, that’s why - and that clearly works, given that new shots of it with slightly different furniture and decor suddenly turn gamers like me into a pile of mush, whimpering “want” over and over again like a spoilt toddler.

And so what if one picture (the one above, taken from Japanese weekly Famitsu) suddenly makes me pre-order a game when I’ve been considering not getting it. Does that make me shallow?

Don’t answer that.

Let’s Go To The City is out in the UK in December, Nintendo recently confirmed. And I’ll be buying it, poor deluded fool that I am. Look! It has ickle winter hats and everything!
