Game Description
街へいこうよ どうぶつの森 is the Wii entry in Nintendo's beloved Animal Crossing life simulation series. The game expands on previous entries by adding a new City area accessible from your village — a hub populated with unique shops, a theater, a salon, and other facilities not available in the village itself. Village life retains the series' hallmarks: interacting with animal neighbors, fishing, fossil collecting, seasonal events, room decorating, and more. The Wii Speak bundle edition was the flagship release, allowing players to voice chat with friends online via the Wii Speak microphone — a notable feature at the time. Up to 4 players can visit each other's villages via Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. The back cover taglines read: "A town has appeared in Doubutsu no Mori — why not take a trip from your carefree village life to the city?" and "Chat with Wii Speak!"
Import Compatibility Note
The Nintendo Wii is region-locked. This Japanese disc will only play on a Japanese region Wii console or a modified Wii with region lock bypass. It will not play on a North American or European Wii without modification. The Wii Speak hardware is a USB peripheral and is physically compatible with any Wii console, but its software functionality is region-tied to the Japanese disc. Please confirm hardware compatibility before purchasing.
