I'll be honest here, I'm really not even that excited.

I don't know why, the games cool and stuff, but I'm not all hyped.

Probably will get a little more excited when an English release date is near by

 

[Toeto]

Can't wait to watch playthroughs

 

[Pickles]

I'm excited for all the new info that will be out, but I'll be pee-my-pants excited when we get a US release date. LOL

 

[saratoga]

I am very excited! And I hope that people will find my "play" video enjoyable to watch

 

[Sam]

Yay! We just passed 2 days! Wooooo!

 

[Anna]

Yeah I'm gonna watch playthroughs im bored of waiting now

I am very excited! And I hope that people will find my "play" video enjoyable to watch

im sure i will ^.^
ill be watching them ^.^
you should start a tread on here when you do ^.^

 

[Stevey Queen]

I'm gonna watch playthroughs too! I hope they release a guide in japan and they post pictures online. I wanna see what villagers will be in this game.

 

[Viriel]

The japanese realease will just bring it?s lot of unboxings,playthroughs, walkthrougs... And also a f***ing feeling of deep frustration.

 

[Kaiaa]

Same. I mean I'm happy it's coming out but I'll be even happier when it's released in English.

 

[JKDOS]

Cant wait! set my alarm for 9:00am download the game and begin!

 

[Juicebox]

I'm excited to see the huge rush of news coming. I had no plans of not spoiling myself, so it's going to be gameplay videos fo days.

 

[Mint]

I'm so excited. I'll be up nice and early and even though the game won't be on the eshop until 10 am, I will be stalking the eshop. xD

 

[Officer Berri]

I never worried about 'spoiling myself' on anything in this game. I'm going to love seeing how the game starts out, what villagers are in the game, and all the stuff we get to do in actual game play form instead of teasers.

I just wish it'd be coming out in America in a few days instead of just the Japan release. I'm so pumped for this game the anticipation is driving me up the wall. It's even worse than Population Growing was because when I learned about that game I only had to wait 3 months! xD

 

[Dizzard]

I know for a fact that I'll have absolutely no will power when this comes out.

Although I'll likely be more interested in the details and short gameplay videos, I'll probably manage to keep away from let's plays. That's a bit much.

 

[Feraligator]

Animal Crossing Media Blackout is going to be hard. I don't want to spoil myself... Although all the trailers have already.

 

[JCnator]

Since one of my classes is taking place at the time the game will be up on eShop, I can still download it two hours later, and then get to play it in that evening.
I hope that the (sketchy) Internet connection I'm currently will be favorable for me, and that the eShop servers don't get hammered by too many people connecting on it like New Super Mario Bros. 2 did.

 

[Mairmalade]

Hooray to all of you getting it shortly! Sadly there's no reason for me to go out and purchase a JP 3DS and Animal Crossing. If I could read and understand it I'd be hyped, but sadly English release is pretty far away. D:

[Anna]

So it's coming out in the eshop in Europe but it is in Japanese? Or am I just getting confused
