Nintendo of Australia have let us know the new Animal Crossing for Wii will be hitting Aussie store shelves early next month, December 4. Animal Crossing: Let's Go To The City is the first time the series has landed on Nintendo's new console and will also feature interaction with the new Wii Microphone, Wii Speak.

Build relationships with animals in your town as you go fishing, take in a concert, get your hair done at Shampoodle salon and get a Mii makeover. Design your own clothes at the tailor's shop and the animals in your town can even wear them and take them into other towns!

Decorate your house, go on a shopping spree, watch fireworks with friends, ride the bus into the city - the choice is yours and your options are endless in Animal Crossing: Let's Go To The City.

You can have four functioning towns on the one console or invite people online via your Wi-Fi Connection. We have more info on the game in our press release page.

I'm glad games like this are still being made despite never playing one, but "Animal Crossing: Let's Go To The City" sounds rather messy with a lot of council workers cleaning roadkill off the streets ><
