A Boy or Girl living in a town full of Animals, working for a Raccoon and doing mixed odd jobs for the villagers, what was the point of it all? The point, was good clean fun. And Animal Crossing: City Folk is no different.
Since the Gamecube excursion there has been a DS version, Animal Crossing: Wide World, which was pretty much a smash hit, being pretty much a handheld port of the original game people had gotten used to the idea of Animal Crossing by the game and people flocked to game stores to buy it, and when City Folk was released it generated the same sort of buzz."
