I'm not talking about sales, I'm talking about coverage. All AC games have sold fantastically, but Nintendo has barely pushed them until New Leaf, and even then the push only came after it went gangbusters in Japan.

CF was in development for 3 years and the first major news we got besides " we're working on it" was the E3 before release because it was about the only game they had, and even then they glossed over it. New Leaf has been teased since the 3DS was announced and unless you downloaded the videos from the eshop every E3, you didn't know it existed until this year in the west.

It just feels lazy, which is the same complaint I give game freak for barely pushing Pokemon in the west (though x and y has changed that).

But I guess at least AC hasn't gone the way of Metroid and Star Fox.

To be fair Pokemon was a massive thing in the late 90's and the hype train from that still hasn't really died down entirely.

They push the shit out of Mario and it's the best selling franchise around.

Besides which, it's not like AC is a franchise that gets handled by other companies like Metroid. It feels weird that they never seem to want to talk about it in the west.

@impmon, I think Pokemon's problem is that they rely on fan sites too much to hype up people, but there's a decent amount of people who look to the official website for news, and before x and y, it'd be basic shit and nowhere near as much info as Japan got through corocoro.

Also, if I can get Chester to move to my town from a friend's, my other friend will trade me Diana for him. She loves pandas, and Diana is my favorite villager, so it's a win-win situation!

If somebody is moving out and you visit them, you can have them move into your town.

Luckily the international DLC items usually can be bought in the catalog, so if you guys miss out, find someone who will bu them for you.

Do you guys check your turnip prices daily? I have been since I bought a ton of them, because I profited a lot last week (which is the first time I'd ever done it). She hasn't been buying them for more than 100 all this week though..

Also, the WiiU Animal Crossing Plaza is pretty cool. It feels like a teaser for the game though, since it doesn't require you have New Leaf to enjoy it. You just pick characters you want to favorite (only one though), and see what people post about that character. I think it's neat.

I dunno if it's been posted already, but here's the Nintendo Dream addresses:
North America: 5700 – 2038 – 6151
Europe: 7900 – 2106 – 3477
Japan: 0000 – 0100 – 0017
South Korea: 0000 – 1066 – 6865
