Not sure what you mean by a bad team. I just meant a different team, which *could* allow them to work on both games simultaneously. It's not unheard of. New Super Mario Bros. Wii came out in November 2009 and then Super Mario Galaxy 2 came out six months later. We don't know what Nintendo has been working on, but surely they have multiple unannounced Wii U projects in the works. And it's possible that some of those projects could have been in the works for years. I'm not saying it's likely we'll get a Wii U AC game soon after the 3DS game, but I don't think it will take four years either.
Do you think that Nintendo will eventually make an Animal Crossing U?

I told myself I wouldn't get into these squabbles, but comparing New Super Mario Bros Wii to Super Mario Galaxy 2 is like comparing a rock to a precious gem, in that order pertaining to the two games.
Animal Crossing has one team, with further people coming in when new consoles are released to help them program the game around that system. A new team altogether would be a totally different experience, it's hard to make a game with someone else's ideas instead of your own. But if they brought in more people and made their team bigger, that gives them both benefits of being able to have a faster working process and more minds to throw out ideas.
I do think it should take four years or longer. Quality over quantity. We would be better off having one new AC game that will last for four or more years until a new one comes out, City Folk is still being bought and played even today. We're constantly getting new members every single day who want to play City Folk, and even Wild World. The thing with this series is that it's meant to be enjoyed for years, even after a new game in the series is released, that's why they take their time on these games. To make sure the game they are releasing is going to live for years to come.
I don't doubt there will be a Wii U AC game, but if there is it won't be released for a good four years after the console has been out.
I mean really.. the Wii U, and AC3DS aren't even out yet and people are wanting an AC game for it already? That's asking too much right now. Be thankful there is a game coming out at all soon and after a few years, then it would be appropriate to start asking for a Wii U AC.

I didn't know there was only one team working on Animal Crossing
I'd really like it if they just pulled an overhaul and redid everything in the game.. or added a whole lot more content.
They've just been reusing all the old characters/personalities since the GC/N64 version, I'd really enjoy something honestly new, instead of the same content with some new features added around it..

The Wii will be reaching its 6th birthday this November And its safe to say the Wii U will be around for a good 6-7+ years within those 6-7+ years Nintendo will most definitely make another AC game. Why AC is a Red rock. Nintendo likes red rocks.
^Exactly. Animal Crossing would be the perfect game to utilize (and popularize) the social networking/Miiverse features of Wii U. But it wouldn't do much good if they waited until 2017 when Wii U will likely be on the way out. Besides, AC games have always come out relatively early (in the first 2 years) of each system's life cycle.
You don't honestly believe that there will be another Animal Crossing released within the next two years? I mean... really? Sorry to disappoint you, but that won't happen... As said before, Animal Crossing is a game whose purpose is to be enjoyed for years. Additionally, it's a game that requieres MUCH time and work to develop, as seen before.

I reckon they will make it for the Wii U, but it'll be very very far away from now.
To be honest though, I doubt I'll be buying it. I've only ever played Wild World and I'll be buying the 3DS version. There's just something about having it on a portable device that makes it really special. The gamecube version looked really cool and I would have played it if I hadn't stumbled onto Wild World first, but seen as we only have one TV in my house, I'm pretty sure my parents, sisters etc would get annoyed if I sat there playing animal crossing when they wanted to watch tele :')

They probably will in a few years (maybe 3-4), but I doubt I'll bother getting it. I already have a Wii which I very, very rarely play. I'm just not interested in the Wii U at all. And plus, seeing from what we're getting in AC3DS, I don't really see what they could do to improve it on Wii U. If anything, it'd end up just being like CF, basically an imitation of the previous AC title but on a home console.

They just got finished with making AC3DS.
They're not going to start working on another one until everywhere in the world has had this one for at least a year, and it depends on how well the Wii U itself does, which is probably going to surprise them this time. If the Wii U does good at all, they might make an AC for it, but.. I just seriously doubt they will.

Animal crossing is a far to bigger franchise for Nintendo to not make for the Wii U. Even if the console isn't a success, they will still make it to attract fans of the series in order to boost their sales. But in reality, we're not going to see anything of the next Animal crossing game in any way shape or form for another 3 years at the VERY least.
That's just my opinion on it though.

No, I don't think they ever will release an Animal Crossing Wii U version, considering the fact that they are still having trouble trying to release the 3DS version (which is really bugging me now) Although, they may introduce the game for the Wii U version about 3-4 years after AC3DS has released. However I don't think there is a chance of that happening! I guess we'll just have to wait and see.....
