Animal Crossing Wii U

[Dasbreenee]

Did anyone else know this was confirmed?
I went into GameStop today and was going to preorder the new HM

Now, I work at gamestop and my boss cut me off after I said "I want to pre order" and he said "Animal Crossing for wii u?"
It's pre orderable for us where I live. And I'm so excited!

 

[Hyoshido]

Source? Proof?
For all we know your Boss could be joking.

I don't have a source. As I got told by my boss.
Not to mention the fact that there's a list of preorderable games for every system which it's listed on.
And it still has a generic street date.
We won't know the release until everyone else. As of now it says 12/31/15. Which is just a generic street date so gamestop can't get used for "lying" about a release date.

- - - Post Merge - - -

And I have no idea why people think they need sources and proof like this is some research paper.

Even if my boss was joking, a games still coming out either way. Source : creators themselves.

 

[Orieii]

Really!? Omg! I'm so excited

 

[Hyoshido]

No proof or source = no game
Nintendo will have to announce it first before anyone says "ye did u kno they're makin' an AC Wii U!?!" It's just silly.

Gee I dunno, to actually know it's confirmed? What if your Boss said Super Mario Sunshine 2 was coming out in a few months, would you believe him? I hope not.

Also it's not hard for Gamestop to atleast put TBA if it were true, 31/12/15 is WAAAAAAY too soon if there's no legitimate source at hand, which in this case, there isn't.

 

[D3athsdoppelganger]

I heard the game was confirmed but I dunno about preordering yet but yes it is confirmed

 

[Hyoshido]

IIRC, the only "confirmed" thing is Animal Crossing related news this year, nothing about a new title in the making.

 

[D3athsdoppelganger]

Please don't turn this into an AC3DS release date drama again

"OMG MY LOCAL GAMESTOP SAID AC3DS IS COMING OUT ON APRIL 3RD 2012 GUIZE ITS LEGIT MY GAMESTOP TOLD ME I HAVE THE RECEIPT AND EVERYTHING ITS PROOF OMG GUYZZZZ WHEN APRIL 3RD 2012 COMES AND YOU ARE ALL PALYING THE GAME YOU WILL FEEL LIIKE ****ING IDIOTS FOR NOT BELIEVING ME@1!!!111!@$E@!12!!!"

bottom line is, the game hasn't been announced, nor confirmed (I mean it's been "confirmed" but not confirmed). Whether your boss has it on he system or not, is by no means proof, nor concrete confirmation of the games release (and tbh, I can see it as borderline illegal since they are taking pre-orders for a game which hasn't even been announced). I mean, no one is stopping you from believing him (like even I believe AC will come to the WiiU) but srsly... unless your boss works for Nintendo JP - then it's not true. If he can do that, I'm gonna make a business for pre-orders of Pokemon X2Y2 or Z (a game which is inevitable, just like ACU) and get rich scamming people from pre-orders!!!
This game isn't even available for pre -order in Japan yet (because if it was, all the Nintendo News sites would be swamped with it), so no way will it be available outside of Japan...

And if you really think a company like GameStop is going to have news before Japan then you're delusional.

That said, we did have an unofficial leak of Majora's Mask late last year, where someone from Target "leaked" MM3DS coz it was on the system, but I still believe, and am almost certain that was just a stuff up of OoT.

Yes. I said generic street date. That's not the real street date.
That just means it's announced. Just not a set in stone date for it releasing.

- - - Post Merge - - -

But either way. I'm not forcing anyone to believe it.
I'm saying what my boss told me, and showed me.

 

[Shimmer]

I won't buy it until there's proof. I've googled stuff and can't find anything.

If it's legit though, cool

 

[SweetT]

Well I see Isabelle and Nook on amiibo posters
Amiibo = Wii U (hopefully new 3DS)

*SIGH*

amiibo are mostly for smash brothers wii u..otherwise not much else to use them for

 

[Boccages]

I could see Nintendo releasing amiibo cards for an Animal Crossing game. You could (maybe) order these cards online with build-to-order measures. For example, you buy a Pate card, you scan it on the Wii U GamePad and BOOM she moves in your town.

 

[Captain Crazy Chicken]

Or a Biskit card.
Or a Pecan card.
Or any kind of card.

Target Canada to be precise.

The only way I'd be sure to confirm that old leak was if the item numbers shown for Majora's Mask before and after release were the same.

Haha! I didn't even know there was release date drama for the last game. Does this happen every time?

I've only been around for NL (kinda was for CF but didn't pay attention).

Basically, since the announcement for AC3DS (I'm calling it 3DS not NL coz this was before it had a name), GameStop was literally ****ting out release dates every month, and then when the date passed, they'd change the date again - wash, rinse, repeat.

Every time, and I mean every time, someone would come to TBT, preaching they knew, for a fact, 100%, that AC3DS would release that day. "I know the clerk very well, they've never been wrong before, this is the release date", "Don't believe me? Fine. When the date comes and you're all playing you'll thank me", "GameStop is listing the date, it must be correct!". Each time they were wrong and they got so butt hurt that no one would believe them, and basically left once the "release date" passed.
Also, let's not forget those that "claimed" they knew Reggie, or someone who worked for Nintendo (their dads cousins uncles mums sisters grandmas god sons grandchild), and said that they had told them the release date.
Tbh was a p good time for laughs.

tbh I think most of it was due to there being such a long wait between CF and NL, but yeah, it happened.
