Animal Crossing: City Folk Afterthoughts

Animal Crossing: City Folk, it’s out for the Wii, and people say that the game is more of the same. With the inclusion of the city, a couple new items, and some features here and there, it’s the same as Wild World. 1UP did an interview with Rich Amtower and Reiko Ninomiya about the game, and the afterthoughts of the game.

1UP: Tom Nook: Why is he a jerk?

RA: You think he’s a jerk? That’s too bad. He’s actually quite nice. He’s like that first boss you ever had when you worked your first job in high school or wherever… He’s all about business, first and foremost, and if he doesn’t always spare the time for pleasantries, that doesn’t mean he’s a bad person. He’s just got a lot on his plate. Remember, he’s hiring you, a fresh face in town without even a résumé. He’s taking a big risk, and this alone should tell you a lot about his generous nature.

RN: Just like in a real town, there are many different personalities represented in the community. You won’t necessarily like everyone in your town, but that’s life, isn’t it?
