Where Is Animal Crossing 3DS?

My family is addicted to Animal Crossing. We play AC on the Wii every day at 2pm with or without our online friends. We do miss a day once and awhile but for the most part, we play the game every day like clockwork.

Sometimes we even play it more than once a day or a friend will ask us to play at night. We really love the game and any chance to play more is fine by us!

That said, lately we've just been buying time with the Wii game. Don't get me wrong: we really love meeting up with our online friends but...we just really, really, really, REALLY wish that Animal Crossing for the 3DS was out!

For 2 (almost 3) years now, we've known about Crossing for the 3DS. Back when we each bought our 3DS, we bought it because of this one game. We knew we'd have to have Animal Crossing 3DS.

We thought it would be out a lot sooner though.

It seems like Nintendo is taking forever to release this game. They have teased it at two E3 events now and various other events too. STILL no release date. We know some things about the game, but not, I suspect, everything. The worst is that release date though. We know its coming in 2012, yes, but thats ALL we know. Nintendo won't give us a date.

Meanwhile, like I said in another entry, they keep releasing Mario games. Super Mario 3D Land & Mario Kart 7 came out last year and Mario Tennis, just announced early this year, is coming out in May. BEFORE Crossing. Nintendo is finally getting Kid Icarus out though (one of the few non-Mario games from them). Why can't they get Animal Crossing out too?

I don't understand why Nintendo is taking so long with this game. Do they think Nintendo fans only like Mario games? Is Crossing not important to them? Or do they just like seeing Animal Crossing fans unhappy? Maybe its all three. I don't know....

I do wish Nintendo would tell us a season or a month or something. I'm hoping that it'll be Summer when it comes out. I really hope they don't make us wait longer than that. Waiting all year for Crossing? That would be horrible.

Animal Crossing for the Wii is great, but its time for that new Animal Crossing to come out!
