Now, given there are no sources listed, I'd take this with a grain of salt at the moment even though I would assume all this info is legit.  I can't really comment at the moment as I have to leave to school in a few minutes and there is still one more post I want to make in another thread about another game. 
This game is sounding better and better the more I hear about it.  Damn Nintendo for pushing the NA release to next yr.  I needed this here by Christmas :'( . :@

Kairon:
I'm loving hearing more about this game, especially getting to build and invest so much in your town! I absolutely can't wait to DOWNLOAD this at midnight!

...AWESOME!

Kairon:
Random thought: wouldn't it be cool if Nintendo used DLC to add more dinosaurs after the game's release?

Mannypon:
A truckload of Animal Crossing news has arrived.  Enjoy :) .  I know all this is just going to make the wait for a US release that much more difficult. 

Here's a summary of the Japanese Nintendo Direct dedicated to Animal Crossing that took place this morning.  I got this from a member called StreetsAhead over at Neogaf.


--- Quote ---- Talking about the game, being mayor, building house, no firm goals.
- Eguchi, producer. Going to talk to devs.
-The man and woman were the game's directors, the other woman is a planner.
- Flowers will sparkle depending off if they've been watered.
- Can design roads - they added the character for 'road'. There's a camping ground, sometimes there'll be campers - villagers who don't live in your village.
- Villagers and visitors can buy items in the recycle shop.
- There's a pot plant and the other is a music album.
- The bench and clock were stuff she placed as mayor.
- When you sit in the mayor's seat, Shizue will come up and talk to you.
- Once you've decided what to build, go with Shizue to decide where. Then they'll show you what it will look like. Donations from villagers begin.
- Don't have to go back to mayor's office once building is placed.
- Can donate yourself.
- New item: megaphone. Can say a villagers names to get their attention by speaking their name into the 3DS microphone.
- The tanooki brothers will take turns each day to service the shop.

- 2nd floor is the museum shop. The four doors lead to special exhibitions. You can set the special exhibitions yourself. Hawaiian Expo, Sushi expo.
- Tanooki Housing Real Estate. Buy parts for your houses outside.
- Can decide if you want to increase room numbers and where (1st flow left, right, 2nd floor etc)

- Can see with the map where the houses are using people's names.
- Toilets & urinals!! Mario stars, shells, & mushrooms!
- The woman to the left of Eguchi drew that apple as her 'Own Design' in the game.
- You can go to visit some people's villages that you've street-passed with. It's a 'dream'.
- Allows you to see how other people have set up their towns. When you have an internet connection, if someone you've street passed with has a Village number, (can search by name too) you can go into a new shop and visit their village. You can do stuff like cut trees and get fruit, but it doesn't affect their village.
- You can alter the look of City Hall, too.

OMG... just thought of this...

Since Nintendo can't put real NES VC games in AC anymore... they should invent some all-new fake retro ones!!! Or maybe even bring in Game & Watch games!!!

They could even be paid DLC!
