Should I make a seperate blog just for Animal Crossing: New Leaf?

I'm debating whether I should keep this blog account for walkthroughs and link it to my youtube account and make another blog page just for Animal Crossing: New Leaf. I think I will make a new blog account for Animal Crossing :3

So, it's been 10 days since Animal Crossing: Jump Out has been released. It has been announced that the NA version of the Animal Crossing series will be called Animal Crossing: New Leaf. I hope the european version doesn't change this to something along the lines of "Let's turn over a new leaf!" because seriously, was there any need to change the name from City Folk to "LET'S GO TO THE CITY".... enough of the rant.So far, there has been no confirmation what the official date is, when the game will release apart from 'Early 2013'. This could be counted from January to late June. Since I live in the UK, I will have to wait for the european version of the game, which will mean I'll have to wait a bit longer since the game will have to be translated to around 6 different languages. I understand totally about the process of translating but I'm literally grinding my teeth away waiting for this game to be released. I've been waiting since E3 2010 and being told to wait till 2013.. makes me speechless. But I understand and I will keep anticipating until it's confirmed.

Looking at the japanese commercials for this game and looking at some videos some users have posted, I'm thinking a lot of animal crossing fans will be pleased with the outcome and the wait will most definitely be worth it. There's many new features to the game (which I don't want to spoil for others and myself). I think the top features is the new storyline of being the mayor and doing community projects to make your town better. I'm really excited to go wi-fi as the minigames on the island seem really good! Of course there is more of a customisation for a lot of things like your character and your house interior and exterior. What I first pointed out in the trailers was the new hair colours and eye colours. I watched soo many videos now that I've had to force myself to stop because I will just spoil the game for myself and it won't be worth the wait!

I've been reading a couple of forums on http://www.animalcrossingcommunity.com/ and the first thing was "Oh my god, what am I going to name my town?". SO, after about a week, I decided I'm going to name my town Misawa, after the place in Japan (I just like the sound of it :3) and if we get to name the Island then I'll name it Outset, after the Zelda game Wind Waker. If anyone reading this blog has an animal crossing community my account is (of course) WowItsHannie.

So, hopefully, time will fly and we'll all be playing Animal Crossing: New Leaf soon!

The Sims 3 for 3DS 7/08/12

I recently purchased The Sims 3 for the 3DS and I've become rather addicted to it! I only had 1 3DS game for my 3DS so one day whiles shopping I decided to buy Sims 3 merely for the reason it was amazingly cheap (£9.99). At first, the game took awhile to get used to with the odd controls but I soon got used to it. I thought I should just quickly blog about it because it is a really good game and is very cheap so if anyone is thinking of buying it I highly recommend! I may write a review about it later on but for now I've put a couple of screenshots up! Bye for now!

New Animal Crossing 3DS Trailer from Nintendo Direct June 2012

I've always been an Animal Crossing fan ever since my sister showed me it back in 2006. The first game I ever played was Wild World and I remember getting all my friends to buy it so we could visit each others town. After that, I then got the Gamecube edition which started off the franchise and although I wasn't addicted to it as much as the DS Version, there was soo much to do, I spent over 4 hours playing it one day. Finally, christmas of 2008, I got the Wii edition and I still play it to this day! But now that Animal Crossing 3DS is on it's way, I'm afraid to say I'm abandoning my wii and picking up my 3DS!

My friend had sent me the new trailer that had been released a couple of days ago and whiles watching it, I was soo excited. The developers of the game have really improved it by adding little touches of each game (Gamecube: train, Wild World: DS console, City Folk, City/Mall idea) yet adding their own touches like being the mayor! Poor Tortimer, what's going to happen to him?There is probably much more to discover since nintendo can't just reveal everything to us!
Since the trailer is in japanese, I did find a audio and text translation by the youtube name 'AggressionSsbb' which you can watch right here:
