Animal Crossing Wii U Speculation thread

[kittenrobotarmy]

We all know the next Animal Crossing will most likely be on Wii U. Since Nintendo hasn't announced anything about another Animal Crossing game yet, we may as well predict and discuss what may be next in the future of the series. All that goes here. Speculation includes:

Title
New features
Old features returning
New villagers
Old villagers returning
New fruit
More Island features
Use of the Wii U GamePad

Speculate away!

I feel that in the next Animal Crossing, there could be a possibility of a larger landscape for the towns. It seems that towns over the previous AC's have been about the same size each time, not including the added on shopping atmospheres. I think that it would be cool to have just a bit more land to fill up with even more townsfolk!

 

[kittenrobotarmy]

True. In Population Growing, the town felt "bigger" due to the acre system, but now that it's gone, the layout seems so small. ._.

Very nice topic Kippla, but what makes it 'Official' may I ask?

Just on the topic, I think that Animal Crossing Wii U would look amazing if Animal Crossing Plaza is anything to go by.

 

[Prof Gallows]

Honestly, I think it'll end up being like City Folk. Just a console version of the handheld game with a few extra bits added.


Nothing wrong with that in this case, since New Leaf turned out to be pretty great.

@Jason: Well, since there isn't really a thread for it yet, I just decided to name it that. If the staff makes the real-deal official thread, then I'll close this one.

@Prof: True. I just don't see why they'd manufacture a new game with a new name on a new console just to add a bit from the previous game. It'd be better if each time, they added major features that fans have been asking for. I understand they'll want to keep some things undone so it's fresh, but a bigger inventory/created special villager spots{creating, not pre-made like it was in old games} is sort of important.

Even if the staff make one, it doesn't justify 'official' to me.

Now I know this wouldn't happen, but if a verified Nintendo rep joined and made a topic like this, I would verify it as official.

Same as I can't even make things truly 'official' on ACBay even though I am the Site Manager and partner/friend of the ACBay Founder.

I'm not saying the Wii U Animal Crossing itself is official. That's simply what a lot of people think.

I understand Kippla, I am meaning this thread is not official, is all.

 

[kittenrobotarmy]

Yeah, I know. Just trying to point out that since it's basically the only thread, it seems more official than just a random thread. But regardless, I changed the thread title. Now back to speculating!

 

[BellGreen]

I think you should be able to choose if you want to be mayor or villager. But still, if you're mayor you don't even have to do anything if you don't want to do anything xP

 

[Gladtobemom]

The biggest thing I'd want is for us all to be able to visit back and forth. From Wii U towns to 3ds towns.

I would like this but considering there will be more content like clothing obviously, how could it transcript to the 3DS?

 

[PoizonMushro0m]

Not to be rude, but isn't there already a thread for this?

 

[Kaiaa]

Hmm... I would like to see an Animal Crossing Wii U game as it would probably help Wii U pick up sales like the 3DS. I agree with Gallows in that it will probably mostly be like how City Folk was.

Perhaps the Game Pad would be like the bottom of our 3DS screen in New Leaf. If that doesn't work, I could definitely see it being used in mini games on the Island. They would of course, have to add new mini games for that to work though.

I would love to see a better minigame style similar to WarioWare or Rhythm Heaven Fever. Every 4 games there would be a "challenge" mode where you get a version of all the minigames mashed up in a fun style.

 

[Puddle]

I ask that they bring back the GC characters and add new species of villagers. Oh, and if they brought back the balls, like the basketball and soccer ball in AC:GC, that would be cool too.

 

[bittermeat]

I would like to see an expanded town with caves and unique hill formations, as well as the ability to rotate the view 360 degrees.

Yeah, all of those things would be great in my opinion.

 

[Max057]

Here's what I think there will be :
More power as Mayor
New furniture sets
Pro patterns on pants, shoes, socks, hats
New villagers
New villager personality types
Updated graphics
Updated camera
New shopping area
Larger town w/ more changes in terrain
More public works projects
New NPC's

That basically sums up what I think the next game will add.
