Happy New Year to all! Hope your holiday was great! Mine was pretty fantastic and relaxing. My oldest daughter and I spend a good deal of time playing Animal Crossing on the Nintendo DS this holiday. What an amazingly fun experience. In fact, on New Year's Eve, she and I stayed up watching the countdown on the Disney Channel and playing AC.

I took my character and, through the DS wireless networking capability, visited her town. We took our characters to the town square and celebrated the new year by watching the fireworks display that the game's inhabitants threw. It was really neat! Anyway, my online game tag and Nintendo Connection ID are going to be listed in the margin on my blog from now on. So, if you are playing any Mario Kart, Animal Crossing, BF2, CS, etc., look me up!

This is a question I've been trying to get answered, but haven't found. On AC DS with two DS and WiFi connect, can you "see" and "talk" to the other person. Say, you go to your daughter's town and find her, can you interact with her? In the GC version the other people are always asleep. An option to make split screen / dual controller would have been nice. So I'd like to see something like that here. Especially if I'm playing with someone that I can't see right now, ie other room, next door neighbor. Thanks.

Yes, you can completely interact with someone you connect to. As well, you can pick up objects that you bring back to your own town. We actually played a game of hide and seek where on player would hide and then, using chat, would give clues regarding where they were hiding. Awesome!

I'm on the brink of buying a PSP, which has the same features as the DS on the wi-fi side. Do PSP have games the same as Animal Crossing of DS which enables players to interact with each other who is also connected? Congrats for your informative side of gaming here on the Java Site, now I'm learning to appreciate Java far much more better...
