First of all, I can't believe I've read this whole thread! It's really cool to read all those great ideas! I also would like to have some kind of bag so you can carry more stuff with you. A cave would be also very cool, on the map they have shown in the interview was a cave... hope you can dig up fossils or even gems there!
I am also wondering what you can find underwater, searching for special mussels, fish or even treasures would be really nice. Also I hope we get an additional little island, I've had the DS-Version and Wii-Version of Animal Crossing and I never get why they removed so much great stuff from the original game!!
So I hope they add many events and stuff and make it more like the original (seems like the're doing this, the train's comeback is confirmed
)!
I also hope that we'll be able to have a garden with special furniture. It would be also nice to see some new buildings! I was really disappointed by AC:Wii because it was just the DS-Version with some tiny little changes...The caf? should also be a seperate building, and the city was really boring! I mean why aren't there any restaurants to eat pizza or listen to music? Or more clothes shops, maybe with themes like a "Rockstar Clothes Shop" or a "Nobilty Clothes Shop", hope you get what I mean
The city was in my opinion a great idea, but the realisation kind of failed as I see it!
I'm pretty sure that this time we don't just get a ripp-off of AC:WW but a (for this series) really fresh "new" game!
