Remember that preview for Nintendo Power showing a page on Animal Crossing? Well, we got a paragraph or two detailing information from June’s Nintendo Direct. Yeah, not the most useful thing in the world. The only interesting thing is that they’ve translated it as Animal Crossing: Going Out which makes zero sense as everyone else seems to have decided on Jump Out or Fly Out instead. Weird. Make sure to keep in mind, Nintendo Power is speculating on the name just as much as we are, it’s not an official translation or anything.
Not major news or anything but in a preview of the latest Nintendo Power (August) there will apparently be some space on a page related to Animal Crossing 3DS. I’m sure it won’t be anything too big but with the news drought lately it doesn’t hurt to mention it. You can check out the preview here. The AC 3DS mention is on the last page of the PDF.
Nintendo just released their earnings report for this last quarter and with that comes an updated launch schedule for each region. To summarize, the current official release timeframes are as follows…
Sorry, I’m a bit late on this but here’s a video translation analysis of the Japanese Famitsu scan from a few weeks ago. Hope this helps out if you were curious about the scan!
Here’s a new Animal Crossing 3DS scan from the Japanese magazine Famitsu. There’s a couple new screenshots/features to be found so make sure to take a good look at the scan.
I got some sad news here folks. Animal Crossing 3DS has been confirmed for Early 2013 in Europe. Based on this and the lack of the game being mentioned on the American Nintendo Direct we can assume the same for North America. That last bit however is not confirmed. Stay tuned.
Keep in mind this is pure speculation but the English Nintendo Direct just ended with no mention of Animal Crossing 3DS while the Japanese one had a 3 minute video saying 2012. Again, just speculation but does this imply a 2013 release for North America/Europe? Share your thoughts in the comments below.
