DESC: Now you can experience the universe of Animal Crossing anywhere, anytime on the Nintendo DS. All of the features of its GameCube big brother have made it into the DS translation with a new slew of touch screen features. Use the DS stylus to navigate menus and interact with your character including movement, using tools, talking to your friends and other villagers, and picking up and interacting with items. Animal Crossing utilizes the internal clock of the Nintendo DS and depending on what season and time of day you play, your village will change with dynamic night/day cycles and exciting seasonal decorations for holidays like Halloween and Christmas.
